CATDOLL: Tokyo subway girl image protested, criticized for being too seductive in see-through outfit

Japan really likes anthropomorphism. Everything there can be a two-dimensional image, even the government departments are the same. In recent years, there are many two-dimensional anthropomorphic images of various surface places, but as public images, "she" is often controversial, and some have even had to be replaced. Recently, the two-dimensional railway girl image "Ekino Michika" of the Tokyo subway was criticized by many citizens for being slightly pornographic, saying that such a promotional image actually wears see-through clothing.

According to the setting, Ekino Michika is the railway girl of Tokyo Metro. She often helps Tokyo Metro promote traffic safety rules, report delays, promote seasonal activities, etc. Recently, her new image has changed from a Q-version big-headed doll to a beautiful woman wearing a black silk short skirt. The shadow on the skirt of the railway girl in the official website photo caused netizens to clearly see the looming thigh curve. After seeing this, many citizens left messages on the official website saying that this behavior is "objectifying women" and makes people feel very erotic. Later, the official made a correction and drew the skirt part flat.

However, some artists and netizens still said that such pictures have nothing to do with pornography. It is just a matter of light and shadow of the skirt. But they did not expect that it would cause such dissatisfaction. It is really a bit of a fuss. It seems that it is better to cover up such promotional images in the future, so as not to be criticized.
