===Yui Asakura's Stalking Incident===
On June 18, 2022, Asakura was a victim of sexual harassment by an unknown man who had broken into her residence after following her home from her work. For additional security, childhood friend and Zenkaiger-star walked her home the same night, with unsolicited images of the event appearing in an unconfirmed report by magazine FRIDAY.https://friday.kodansha.co.jp/article/251476 Asakura claimed the stalker bypassed the auto-lock on her door to which she contacted the police, but an investigation was never conducted. She notified LIBERA, who publicly clarified that action would be taken against the offender should evidence come to light, but later stated that they no longer deemed Asakura's incident an issue.https://twitter.com/liberajapan/status/1544292396547989504 After announcing to them her intent to leave the agency at the end of August 2022, Asakura heavily criticized their actions and released a personal statement on Instagram revealing her side of the story.https://www.instagram.com/p/CfokrlEPq7e/https://www.instagram.com/p/Chrx5Gnvnty/ 
On September 23, 2022, LIBERA announced that they had filed a lawsuit against Asakura for defamation. Asakura later stated that her main reason for leaving was because due to LIBERA being late on payments to Asakura and several of her colleagues. Because she was unable to make ends meet on time, she began working part-time at a bar-like shop, which spread a false rumor that she had secretly worked as a hostess. Furthermore, she clarified that she was only late to filming Revice twice due to oversleeping as opposed to rumors that stated her lateness was habitual.https://news.yahoo.co.jp/articles/2602917bd3151437886eef18b4d2fb643b066a68
