Kanokon – What YOU SEE Is What YOU WANT (industry side)

Kanokon. Fanservice. Insert “This show sucks.”

Well, enough bickering. Doesn’t this sell DVDs?

You all sit up there in your comfy cubicles and offices, ignoring the people who keep you on life support. You think marketing them what you get will keep your budget in the black and your investors happy.

Reality check: Your customers are not amused.

While I appreciate the CEO of ADV remembering his roots, the same CANNOT be said for the rest of you. All you do is make your PR dude blather on endlessly about how fansubs are destroying the industry and related propaganda. Heck, we have the idiots down at ANN going about the same manner, going so far as to use yellow journalism to drive home YOUR propaganda.

Seriously, the joke’s gone too far. Has the money made you too comfortable? It probably has.

Stop bitching about the industry and look at yourselves for a change. There’s a very good reason why GONZO was forced to do what they had to do.

You were once like your customers. And some of us really do care. Don’t ever forget that.

If not, look forward to marketing stuff like Kanokon. It’s all you’ll be failing to sell.
