If it ain't a niche, fantastic!

I think people my have been confusing my having no positive feelings as thinking I had some sort of strong negative feelings. Again, if it's something that makes sense for the character, and it's what the fans feel is valuable. By all means, let it be so.
Ahri draws from Korean culture, including Girls Generation - see her dance - so it makes sense for the character, and regardless if you know GG or not I'd say a sexy sailor costume is pretty universal - which also makes sense for Ahri, being a seductress champion. A lot of people like the skin idea for what it is, regardless of context, because it just looks damn cool.
