I don't how this managed to fly under my radar but last week Nobuo Yamada of MAKE-UP fame died. He sung Saint Seiya's OP Pegasus Fantasy which was likely the first J-rock song I listened to, sent to my by a penpal on a cassette, copied from a bootleg Taiwanese CD. I still can't get it out of my head after all these years.

#QuestionOfTheDay what's a piece of media you like that for whatever reason (hasn't aged well, problematic, disturbing, offensive, very niche, pornographic, creator sucks, etc) you basically can't show anybody?

(For me it's the movie Major League)
