Harada-san explained that he would like to try that kind of design, but in this day and age, this kind of challenge is made difficult by people who would complain about a stereotypical representation. He also sarcastically argued that perhaps everyone should just wear plain T-Shirts and jeans, because if there is a specific design, it could offend someone, somewhere.

Harada-san then mentioned that he is tired of trying to avoid offending people.

Responding to many fans who offered outpouring support, he encouraged them not to worry, as the team will ultimately do what they want to do.

Proud weeb hailing from sunny (not as much as people think) Italy and long-standing gamer since the age of Mattel Intellivision and Sinclair ZX Spectrum. Definitely a multi-platform gamer, he still holds the old dear PC nearest to his heart, while not disregarding any console on the market. RPGs (of any nationality), MMORPGs, and visual novels are his daily bread, but he enjoys almost every other genre, prominently racing simulators, action and sandbox games. He is also one of the few surviving fans on Earth of the flight simulator genre.
