Did any western press even notice?
Must have been pricey.

I saw a mini video/reportage on Euronews last week around two days after the press conference. So it seems at least one european news channel was there.

The video does not talk only about this movie though.

You didn't expect the Japanese press to not attend an event for a Japanese movie, right? I mean it was the world premiere of an Osamu Tezuka adaptation. I'm sure there were a few other Western outlets there, just not as many as the Japanese.

Also, 'defending' Ayu in a sea of people who already hate her is pretty futile.
