Are you saying that the author of
Spice and Wolf was "caught flaming" his peers on 2ch? What happened there?

What were the issues that happened to the new
D.Gray-Man season anyway?
Sure, Koshimizu almost certainly likes getting work. But clearly she started an independent agency for a reason. It could be that she's trying to secure better working conditions and compensation contracts for herself and anyone willing to sign onto her new agency, which has historically been something that Japanese corporate types have frowned on (why else do you think that there hasn't been a history of unionization in Japan, the very country that invented a word for "death by overwork," that being
karoshi?).
Recasting Koshimizu and Fukuyama would indeed kill the hype the fanbase has built over this announcement of S&W's new season. But those examples may be less extreme than you think.
Muv-Luv Alternative, a well-loved story in its day that supposedly even inspired the author of
Attack on Titan to write his
magnum opus, entirely ditched its original voice talent in favour of an all-new cast for an anime adaptation that has been widely considered to be botched at the very least, with the word being that they may have switched to the all-new cast to avoid paying so much to the original cast of whom not a few have become well-respected veterans in the seiyuu industry. If the people in charge can do that to MLA, who's to say it can't be done to S&W?

not have the original main cast reprise their roles to be as confident as you are. But the only thing we can do is wait to find out.
