Man Sues Asian Adult Star For Not Following Him on Twitter

TOKYO—Some fans will simply not take no for an answer. A Japanese man spurned by Japanese actress Aoi Sora, who was apparently not interested in following the man on Twitter, has sued the star in court, according to The Tokyo Reporter, which reported that the unnamed man is "in his 40s, claiming to be a writer and critic of topics related to education." As AVN has previously reported, Aoi, who commands a huge following in China, was an instant sensation in 2010 when she opened a Twitter account on March 30 of that year. In less than two weeks, she had 30,000 followers, and the number has kept climbing ever since. Today, she is reported to have 325,000 followers, but not her frustrated suitor, who, according to the article, "made demands on a daily basis." “I am a fan of yours; please follow me,” he would tweet. “Please consider following,” “How’s work? Your English is getting better. Please follow me.” Seeing no response, he sued. That apparently got some fans of Aoi steamed, and people started looking into the fellow. “Through research, it was discovered that he had been making similar requests to Toru Hashimoto, Michiko Shimizu, and other celebrities, and was also being disregarded," the article stated. Pressed, "the man then explained in vain that he made the requests in order to find out what actually happened regarding Aoi being singled out in a controversy that surfaced in China." Following the spectacular embrace of certain celebrities by hordes of Chinese citizens, the "State Administration of Radio, Film and Television in April demanded that satellite television stations prohibit controversial personalities, including Aoi, from appearing in programming." Then, according to the article, the performer's fans got ugly. "Online users, upset about the litigator’s demands, utilized the educator’s blog and Facebook page to expose his work background and residential address." Seems the vile PornWikileaks mentality is not limited to Westerners.
