I'll stick to Takashi Miike, Yoshihiro Nishimura and Suehiro Maruo for my "Weirdo Japan" stuff.

@iburningstar: So you missed the part where it was obviously tone setting and the part where it was clearly a third person character action game? Snark, snark?

As strange as it may sound that's actually a good thing as it spoils nothing, yet it lets you know this game is totally nuts and you should play this.

After watching follow these simple steps:

Shake your head slowly back and forth, stop and take a deep breath, let out a befuddled sigh, try constructing a coherent thought, give up and start shaking your head again. Repeat as needed.

It's possible that trailer told you everything about that game.

Any other developer, this would be seen more of the shameless and juvenile sexist content plaguing the industry. Kotaku would have at least six click-bait articles on this trailer alone.

Thankfully, Suda 51 gets a pass. Because he's fucking awesome.

Kind of looks like he just made No More Heroes 3 but with a different protagonist. Who knows? Might be cool. I'll follow the development. Hopefully it plays a little better than NMH. Much as I like those games, I found them pretty rough around the edges, gameplay-wise.

I haven't played Shadows or Lollipop yet, but the consensus seems to be that Suda51 has kind of fallen off lately. But this looks very much in the vein of his classics.

I don't know...the ladies riding the syringes was kind of titillating. I know Suda is capable of more than just whacked, though

I dunno, I feel this probably told us a lot about that game. As weird as that may be.

When I first started playing Killer 7, I knew damn well that the game was going to make no sense from start to finish, and while it explained SOME things, for the most part, I was right. I accepted that fact right away and was able to enjoy the game's weirdness, and I think that's the mentality I'm going to take going into this game.

I can't wait for this game. Both to play it and to see all the precious overblown arguments about "sexisim" that its going to stir up with the "Gigolo Vision" mode. I've not really even followed this but I don't have to Suda is involved so I'll enjoy the hell out of it just like I did Lollipop Chainsaw last year.
