What is this all about?

A multimedia franchise by MarvelousAQL that has several Video Games, Anime Series, and load of merchandises spawned from it.◦ In Another word, it’s a money making franchise

What is Senran Kagura?

What is the concern?

Need any other Explanation?

The Agenda

Feminist believe it is immoral for these kind of product to be made

they voice their opinions and try to place bans It is nothing new, they have been doing this for

decades, without much success.

Another well known case

The Boob, The Thigh, The AssVanillaware’s Dragon’s Crown is at the forefront of

controversy when it got released

This Presentation is not about the moral rights and wrongs of these products

This is about why you should not voice about something if

you disapprove it

Let’s get to the point

Business Stand Point

Company

Potential Customer

Non Buyer

Whenever a business entity advertize their product, they create a sphere of influence to a number of people◦ Who, could, or could not be their potential customers

Outside the Sphere

Company

Potential Customer

Non Buyer

However, there are people who are outside the sphere

Chain Effect

Non Buyer

When a person heard about it and make opinion, they create a new set of influence that could cover others that are outside the original sphere

The result

People who won’t buy from the start won’t buy it any way, More customers were made because someone talked about

it

Customer who will buy due to direct advertizing

People who will not buyRegardless of circumstances

People who could have buy if they heard about it

Customer who will buy because someone talked about it

Feminist Opinion

Regardless of positive or negative review,opinions will create a sphere of influence that cover potential buyer as well

MEANING THAT YOU ACTUALLY

DID ADVERTIZING FOR YOUR OPPONENT!!!

Legal Stand Point

There is this things call Rating System, If the product received one, then it is obvious that

the product is legal to be distribute in that country.

Meaning?

You cannot Stop themon Legal Ground

If the country that the product being distributed is going to allow it

Subjective Opinion

Lets face it, Sexism and Feminism are SUBJECTIVE matters

People who agreed with Feminist view from the start are not likely to buy these product any way

From another side, people who do not agreed with Feminist, and wanted to buy the product, are not likely to listen simply because someone voiced a negative opinion on it

Meaning?

Persuasion is futileBecause people who disagreed from the

start are not likely to agree anyway

In Conclusion, Voicing Negative opinion is futile because,

1. You are advertizing for something that you disapprove of

2. It won’t stop companies making more of these products

3. People who agreed with you won’t buy these products from the start

4. People who don’t agreed with you from the start are not likely to agree with you anyway

Finally

Even though I am not going to buy the game,

Now that someone else talked about it,I wanted to buy this Figure
