Thank you for your inquiry, Brian. To provide context, Bonchan and a lot of the JP community concerns are centered on two primary axes:
1️⃣ Failures in Production and Execution 🛠️
2️⃣ Disregard for "Kemonomichi" Culture 🐺
I will elaborate on each below. 👇
Can anyone provide the full context on what Bonchan and a lot of the JP community are critiquing with EVO Legends?
I know there were many production issues, but it seems deeper than that, in regards to audiance interactions? It's hard to exactly pinpoint what went wrong
5️⃣ Conclusion
The event failed as both esports and Kemonomichi due to a severe lack of preparation. If the organizers understood our culture, this wouldn't happen. We cannot accept our culture and respected players being used merely as tools for profit. 🤝
