Intriguing title, isn't it?

Hello everyone from Russia!
Recently, I was scrolling through the channels on my old TV out of idleness, and on the "Ren.TV" ("Рен.ТВ" in russian) channel, I came across a rerun of the "Chapman Mysteries" ("Тайны Чапман" in russian) program from January 25th.

In short, this is a program that talks about various conspiracy theories, mysticism and other similar things. The release of the program was called "Who plays squid?" ("Кто играет в кальмара" in russian) - obviously, the creators used the hype after the release of the series "The Squid Game".
In the program, they talked about how kitsune secretly seize power in Japan, China and South Korea. And at that moment, when not the video sequence of the program, but the host of the program herself appeared on the screen, I choked on my tea and laughed for a very, very long time - my parents almost thought that I had a seizure.
In the background, behind the presenter, various pictures floated, and one of them seemed strangely familiar to me...

So now this wonderful game has officially been on Russian television!
It would be cool if the developers saw this thread and made some small reference in the game.

P.S.: I am more than sure that if the directors of the program find out what character their video editor inserted in the background, he will be fired.
P.P.S.: I won’t be surprised if this video editor is also a big fan of this game and create this easter egg intentionaly.


Proofs: I'm not sure if you can throw links to third-party sites here, so I'll try to do everything as carefully as possible.
Screenshoot - down below, link on the video - in spoler down below, time - 41:33-41:42

EDIT: I`m sorry but it seems like I cant hide video from youtube in spoilers so I add a number "1" before "www" so no big screen with video in this post ^_^. You can use link by deleting number "1".

Look, I realize that they're just talking about kitsune and not this lovely porn game of ours but... how is it even possible that they'd pick that picture out of all the fox-people pictures on the internet :p

objection: you need to take in account that google take in account shearch history when you do new shearch. here's my result when I look for "kitsune"

Maybe it's due to your location or your search history? I just did the google search using Microsoft Edge which I have never used before and not signed into any account, and she was one of the top results. I think it's obvious why they picked her compared to the other results as well: it's a human-form kitsune with a transparent background of good quality.

well I did say:

xD
Right, but my search on a fresh account and browser is almost identical to balak's search he posted, so I think it's fair to assume that that may be the "default" results. Whoever did the editing would have to have a very biased search history on presumably a work computer for theirs to be much different. Yours looks like it's been biased by anime searches if I had to guess, since you have more anime-style results and a recommended search for "kitsune anime".

Less advertising for the game and more a bit of 'Haha, that's amusing' for people who already know about it' I'd say.

The potential free advertising only works if people watching the video decide to look up the source of one specific image and find the game. It's aimed at Russian-speakers while the game and associated community is aimed at English-speakers and I'm guessing the video isn't advertising that it pulled that image from a Google search and the result they picked is from a porn game. Not to mention that the sort of person who'd watch through a video claiming that kitsune are real and secretly controlling eastern Asia is probably not the sort of person who'd be a fan of the game. Unless Aury secretly watches Russian conspiracy theory programming anyways. :p
