John Lasseter. He’s the reason why Pixar/disney had such strong story telling the years he was active. And then it turned out he was a perv. Sooooo disappointing.
Toy Story is a collaborative effort made by many people. If Tom Lassiter had his name written in a death note, Pixar would still have made movies.
Harry Potter was entirely written by JK Rowling; the movies, games, and merch are adapted from the novels. Write “Joanne K Rowling” in a death note, no more Harry Potter.
Also Rowling uses her money to aggressively bankroll right-wing political causes. (She’s best known for the transphobia, but also materially opposed Scottish independence). As such, she has affected more people than Lassiter, though Lassiter’s crimes definitely were worse for the people he did them to.

And yet, people haven’t turned against Toy Story the way they have Harry Potter
