CON:<br />

Small target market.<br />

Careful of Singapore government censorship.<br />

Need to invest in significant additional time to produce new comics for this genre.<br />

Section 2.<br />

EVALUATION<br />

To execute option 2: Comics about living in Japan for foreigners. If a native Japanese can offer his<br />

or her help to translate Evacomics content for free or for a small fee, option 3 (Comics about living<br />

in Japan for Japanese) can also be executed.<br />

Reasons:<br />

Availability of existing portfolio of comics to compile and publish a book.<br />

Able to complete it while memories about Japan are still fresh.<br />

Able to attract broad global audiences who are interested in Japanese culture.<br />

Market the book to existing fan base.<br />

Risks & Limitations:<br />

Accuracy of information.<br />

Accusation of being “anti-Singaporean” and stereotyping.<br />

Competition with existing books about living in Japan. E.g. “Getting Genki In Japan: The<br />

Adventures and Misadventures of an American Family in Tokyo”, “A Geek in Japan:<br />

Discovering the Land of Manga, Anime, Zen, and the Tea Ceremony”, “Tokyo on Foot:<br />

Travels in the City's Most Colorful Neighborhoods”.<br />
