So for people wondering about the Teruyuki Kagawa stuff (or for people who don't know,) yeah. The new actor portraying Hamazaki in Kiwami 3 admitted to sexually harassing a hostess club employee in 2022.

The End of the Millennium... from Mega Drive!

Love, love, LOVE the live-action bits and how awesome the costumes are and the big ol' electrified arm that looks like it's a particularly crude bit of cyberwear.

Drake sitting there reading about how good the judge thought the song was and how everyone really enjoyed it

The song contains lyrics explicitly accusing Drake of being a pedophile, set to a catchy beat and propulsive
bassline. "Not Like Us" went on to become a cultural sensation.
