Anime company Funimation is currently the #1 trend on Twitter after inappropriate recording sessions were leaked online. These recording sessions included the voices of Dragon Ball Z voice actors making homophobic remarks, as well as incest and sexual jokes. The Funimation audio leaks come while the company is in the midst of a legal battle with voice actor Vic Mignogna, who it cut ties with after reports of sexual misconduct.

It remains to be seen how the Funimation audio leaks may impact the company's business moving forward, especially as it seems to have upset some Japanese voice actors who have been actively tweeting about it. However, something else to consider is how it may impact English dubs of video games, like the upcoming Dragon Ball Z: Kakarot game, for instance.

Since Goku voice actor Sean Schemmel is the one who confirmed that the Buu Saga will be in Dragon Ball Z: Kakarot, it's safe to assume that at least some of the English voice lines have already been recorded for the game, and if not, that an English dub is at least in the works. However, Schemmel is one of the individuals involved in the controversy, with one of the leaked Funimation audio clips featuring him using a homophobic slur multiple times.

Scandals like these have seen companies cut ties with actors in the past, though Bandai Namco's response remains to be seen. If the English voice lines have already been recorded for Dragon Ball Z: Kakarot, then it seems unlikely that Bandai Namco will re-record all of the lines with a different voice actor, as that would be a potentially expensive undertaking. However, depending on how big this controversy becomes, the backlash may force Bandai Namco's hand and see it attempt to replace Schemmel and the other voice actors in the recordings.

At the time of this writing, neither Funimation nor any of the voice actors in the audio leaks have released any statements. It's unclear at this point how the industry will handle the situation, and if anyone will be replaced in any English dubs of anime or video games like Dragon Ball Z: Kakarot.

Dragon Ball Z: Kakarot launches in early 2020 for PC, PS4, and Xbox One.
