https://www.destructoid.com/stories/china-s-genshin-impact-x-kfc-crossover-events-shut-down-due-to-covid-19-concerns-622665.phtml


Infamous Weeb video game "Genshin Impact" and KFC teamed up for a LEGENDARY promotional event involving all your favorite waifus and husbandos enjoying delicious fried chicken with a savory blend of herbs and spices. Combining the HUGE popularity of shameless anime gacha games and colonial American chicken, the stage was set for a promotional event for the ages.



Alas, it's all all gone now. CANCELLED due to public health concerns. Turns out the event was too epic for it's own good, and excessive numbers of fans were turning up at KFCs and many camping out overnight like it was a ye olde Star Wars prequel movie release event. Sensing the danger and not wanting to suffer the ignominy of spawning trending hashtags like "Kovid Fried Chicken" or "Covid Chicken Party", the event was cancelled. Nice try, Corona-chan!


THRONGS of disappointed anime gatcha fans/chicken connoisseurs milling about in the aftermath of the cancellation



Hapless waifus being evacuated from COVID HOTSPOT



One man sums up the tragedy.

Its the premise that gets me. Sandwiches and waifus? Really? I mean, I know it. Read the internet a bit. but goddamn, that has to be like 300+ people. For sandwiches and waifus I guess.

Godammit. Now I've got "genshin impact" and "gatcha games" in my search history.

One day I hope to learn the lesson not to go to google when goons talk about anime or pornography. It's pretty tame compared to some things this forum has made me curious about, honestly.
