11/12 (Tue) 18:44 Published Daily Sports Endo Mai Endo Mai, former leader of the idol group Idoling!!! and currently a voice trainer, updated her X (formerly Twitter) on the 12th. While commenting on the issue of sexual assault in the entertainment industry, she posted, “Nao’s friend was sexually assaulted by Matsumoto and others in a hotel.” [Photo] Former popular idol leader writes about his thoughts, “unable to sit still” Endo said on X on the 11th, “Most people who are defending Matsumoto believe him and protect him because he’s ‘funny.’ Yeah, he’s funny. But that’s not relevant now. We are not “anti” people, we are just angry that sexual crimes are being ignored or downplayed. That has nothing to do with his qualities as a comedian,” he posted. She added, “If a celebrity I like responded in such a half-hearted way, I would be disappointed. If it was groundless, he should have denied it from start to finish, not prevented the woman from appearing in court, and had the alleged victim appear in court properly, so that the suspicions could be cleared once and for all.” Among the various reactions from readers, Endo replied to a post from a woman on the 12th, saying, “I am also a woman and have experienced sexual harassment and sexual assault, but I believe that honey traps and false accusations should not be tolerated. I’m not up to speed on explaining this, but a close friend of mine was sexually assaulted by Matsumoto and others in a hotel,” she posted. “When I saw that an article with similar content had come out from Bunshun and was on the verge of being hushed up, I just couldn’t sit still, so here I am,” he confessed. On December 28th of last year, Endo posted on X, “I’m the kind of person who doesn’t enjoy drinking with strangers, but I was invited to that same gathering once before, and if I hadn’t refused, I would have been offered to that person as well.” He added, “You can’t really tell whether a drinking party is good or dangerous until you go to one. “There’s a trend that it’s the woman’s fault for not being able to defend herself or refuse, but there’s no way the host of a drinking party would gather girls by saying, ‘There will be sexual assaults today!'” she continued.

>>4 They have no choice but to leave everything to the BBC in the UK, just like they did with Johnny’s last time. Japanese TV stations are shareholders in Yoshimoto, so they will never do anything.
Well, I understand that he got too angry and made a bad move, but more than that, the way Bunshun handled things and the suspiciousness of A-san’s actions are still hard to wipe away. I understand that it’s true that many people are disgusted by his frowned-upon ways of playing around, but our Matsumoto Hitoshi is not the kind of man to force someone into having sex. He’s like River Phoenix from Stand by Me. Just because someone normally behaves badly doesn’t mean he should be the culprit. Having both sides confirm that there was no evidence of coercion was the best compromise Matsu-chan could make.
>>8 So she wasn’t forced to have sex, and if she refused she gave up. In this case, she hasn’t filed a lawsuit saying she was cut out for work because she refused Matsumoto’s advances.
>>8 If you think about it normally, a drinking party held in a hotel suite seems like something is going on, but he still went anyway. After it was over, he sent a line to thank her saying it was fun, and then he went to the drinking party several times after that to gather evidence. If he hadn’t made such a bad move, he would have been fine, but ignoring it would have been best. Saying things like “It’s finally here” and “Let’s fight” were big mistakes.
I can’t believe I can share something a friend who I don’t even know what he’s doing now said years ago. And in the first place, he couldn’t have been my friend if he invited me to a dangerous drinking party like that.
>>23 This kind of thing happens a lot with foreign celebrities too, but in the end it’s often just the accusers trying to make themselves known by lying.
Even if these young girls actually consented, they might not be able to bring themselves to say that they had sex with Matsu-chan, so they might end up saying that they were pressured into doing it.
I used to be a big fan of Matsumoto, and I would dig up and watch his old videos of him on shows like Gottsu, Gaki no Tsukai, and Downtown Jiru, and think he was so talented, but now that I’m an older man, I think Doburoku is way more entertaining. When I’m tired from work or home, I just want to laugh without thinking about anything.
It looks like there will be more and more hindsight rock-paper-scissors where we don’t even know if it’s true or not. I wonder if it’s just to get more hits.
You say you’re a victim, but I don’t think you can say anything negative about it to ordinary people, so please prepare recordings or other evidence when you make future sexual assault allegations.
>>34 In this day and age, you ignorant women who can’t gather evidence like that should be making accusations like that! If you can’t do it then just shut up and take it.
○I heard this 8 years ago ○I don’t know if it’s true or not ○I’m estranged from that friend and don’t even know where he is That’s a pretty shocking accusation.
