>>5431955Why doesn't he just refuse? He can use his own judgement and just say he won't do it because the perception is bad. He can still do live translations on stream, just off camera or further away from Mei-chan.
>>5432005I think Mei-chan doesn't know any better. Look at some of her Twitter exchanges with Daniel Garcia. He's aware of the perception he's giving off (preying on her naivete), while she thinks she's just having a friendly back and forth with a fellow wrestler. This is likely due to the language barrier and cultural differences. I do agree that Akki isn't wholly to blame (however, I do think he can just say no), the promotion deserves blame as well.
