Toru Furuya has posted a public apology for having an affair with a female fan which allegedly involved domestic violence and an abortion.
This comes after an article published by Bunshun Online reported that the voice actor had been involved in an affair with a female fan who admired him for his performance as Furuya Rei in Detective Conan.
He has since posted the following apology letter on his personal X account:
I, Toru Furuya, have been interviewed by the Weekly Bunshun. I would like to apologize and report on a serious crime that I have committed. I had an affair with a female fan for four and a half years until last September. I was attracted to her because of her straightforward support for me, and I contacted her on my own, even though I was shallow, and the relationship began. During our relationship, we had an argument once and I unintentionally raised my hand. It was the worst thing I could have done as an adult and as a human being. I also made the unforgivable mistake of causing her to have an abortion. I am truly, truly sorry for the deep hurt I caused the other woman, both physically and mentally. I cannot apologize enough for betraying the trust of all my fans who have supported me over the years, disappointing them, hurting them, and tarnishing my character. I have also betrayed the trust of everyone involved and have caused a great deal of trouble. I have spent the rest of my life trying to be sincere and honest. I will spend the rest of my life making amends with all my heart and soul. I am prepared to accept any and all sanctions. I am truly sorry.Toru Furuya, machine translated with DeepL
