It's not exactly
hard to see why they would move towards such a direction. They did announce that they were going to start an "ethics" department a few years ago, which means they fell for the
(((ESG))) scam like a lot of public KKs have done in recent years (hence the mockery of their pursuit and pandering towards the global audience unicorn that doesn't exist). It's also not completely accurate to say they can't handle real fanservice anymore though,

they were quick to whip out the skimpy swimsuits when
Resleriana was flagging in revenue,
Blue Reflection tried pivoting from being a y/u/ri title censored to appease Kusony to a traditional master love gachage and burned itself down risking it all, and of course
Penis Vacation still exists with
Prism toned down for Kusony once again. As long as it's on certain platforms showing skin is allowed in certain titles, but KT wants to also have its cake and eat it too and chase infinite growth. If it means mutilating themselves because Larry Fink promised them imaginary money, well then, by golly Gust is chained. Luckily the
(((ESG))) well is drying up, sacrificing everything for a dead console was pointlessly idiotic (Scamco is also getting burned hard for betraying its home country only to get scorned by the global consumers they wanted to court) and JP citizens are really pissed about USAID money influencing their nation. I think it'll take some time, but Kishida surprisingly reining his positions in and deferring to the people and the tariff trade war ultimately strengthening the yen when it had been weak should help Japan recover from the past few years of globohomo's failed power grab. When Japan moves to PC and mobile and creates its own marketplaces console regulations should be a thing of the past.
