Hey Bandai, I have a game proposal: A monster hunter style game set in the Gundam Iron Blooded Orphans universe. You play as the Gundams who were designed to hunt mobile armors. I think that'd be sick.

I have not watched Jojo since part 4. I read part 5 and I was not a fan (tho admittedly it was that really old and bad translation, so I do need to give it a more fair shot). Part 6 I thought was okay but not my favorite. But man, I am fucking pumped for Steel Ball Run.

If executives were soulless husks purely motivated by profit and made decisions purely based on metrics things would actually be better, but CEOs aren't even that. They're all complete fucking morons who lead based on vibes, and will torch the company they run before admitting their strategy was bad
