It’s been 8 years since @kotowari.bsky.social posted this tweet and forever changed the trajectory of my life (and no, I’m not exaggerating).

Tweet from Roy Blakely (aka @Kotowari) saying “happy spooky october! here is my new fav music video by a korean girl band with a nod zombie apocalypse going on”. Included is a YouTube link to the Twice music video for Like Ooh Ahh.

Something I just noticed is that on Zoey’s ramyun cup she’s wearing an Uncle Sam hat and the flavor is Hamburger 🤣
#KpopDemonHunters

Screenshot from the opening song in Kpop Demon Hunters. The 3 ramen cups are floating in the air, each one named for one of the main characters and with a different flavor. Mira’s cup says “Spice Queen”, Zoey’s cup says “Hamburger”, and Rumi’s cup says “Superstar Flavor”. The cups also have drawings of each girl, and on Zoey’s she is wear a Stars and Stripes top hat like the fictional “Uncle Sam”.

Finally watched the Kpop Demon Hunters movie, and I was really impressed! I was worried it would be corny, but I thought it was genuinely funny and full of heart. AND THE MUSIC!! 🫨

Definitely worth your time, even if you aren’t a kpop stan 💖

What’s this now?! 👀

Yuri Lowenthal post on Bluesky, stating “And for those who keep asking, no, I will not be returning as Yosuke for the Persona 4 remake. I asked. Maybe I even begged, but they don't want me to come back.” Below are two progressively zoomed in photos of a woman with the words “the” and “what” superimposed over her face.

After Mario Kart 8, it seemed like MK was destined to become a Smash Bros-style crossover series. But nope: Nintendo has instead tripled-down on the “Mario” portion for Mario Kart World.
