Bayonetta: Innovative Advertising or Sexual Harassment Training?

Title:
Bayonetta: Innovative Advertising or Sexual Harassment Training?
Description:

The widely popular video game Bayonetta has had an advertising campaign that matches the on screen sexism of the game itself. In Tokyo a large billboard in the subway invited passersby to literally strip off flyers to reveal Bayonetta naked underneath. The campaign perpetuates and encourages sexual and physical harassment against women, an epidemic in Japan (and many other countries, including the United States).
