![Subject: Regarding Teruyuki Kagawa
Hello, my name is [NAME] and I am contacting you regarding the recent casting of Teruyuki Kagawa in the upcoming release Yakuza Kiwami 3.
Kagawa admitted to several instances of sexual harassment that he enacted in 2019.
As a long time fan of the series and someone who was otherwise looking forward to purchasing and playing Kiwami 3, I am extremely disappointed that SEGA and RGG Studios have made this casting decision. I will no longer be supporting the game as long as Kagawa remains a part of the project.
I am not the only customer who is withdrawing my support. There is a change.org petition that is also calling for the removal of Kagawa from the game.

I hope you will consider the irreparable damage this casting decision has already done and will continue to do to the Yakuza: Like A Dragon franchise and its reputation, and that you will make the decision to remove Kagawa from the game.
I understand recasting and remodelling is not an easy task, but I also know that many customers including myself would rather have a delayed release than to see someone guilty of sexual harassment attached to this game.
Should Kagawa remain a part of Kiwami 3, I will not be purchasing the game, or any related releases.
Thank you for your consideration, and I hope to hear an update from you soon.
Regards

I have written a template that you only need to add your name to, should that be helpful. I will include it in the replies.
