  • Old stuff was good

    Was a diehard for the early shows. Alessio still has brilliant insight, and his media literacy is quiet impressive. However, everything is just hyper sexual now. Very weird. Also the kojima glazing is too much. Kojima’s early works are outstanding, but he’s a deeply flawed creator that rides a laughably close line to plagiarism.
