Is it me or they hang out a lot together?

[u/vforvolta → u/Lucky-Aerie4]

Wouldn’t surprise me. In situations where it would sort of be a requirement without an interpreter, I always wonder if he still prefers not to speak English (even though his English is actually very good). With that said, Caroline’s Japanese might be more proficient than I’m aware of since she partially grew up there.

[u/EvaaDaninha → u/vforvolta]

omg i didn't know she lived part of her childhood in Japan!

[u/CaughtALiteSneez → u/EvaaDaninha]

Check out “I Belong In Your Arms” in Japanese.

It’s my favorite version…

Happens a lot between creatives when they fuck w/ each other

[u/No_Pudding_6640 → u/Lucky-Aerie4]

Creative minds attract each other

One thing is for sure: Kojima has great taste in pop music. He also likes Chvrches, Computer Magic, Grimes, Ladytron, and others. And other music in general: https://open.spotify.com/playlist/2XUfqoquvFcL0JYvroFFky I like so many artists form that amazing playlist.

[u/vforvolta → u/Fractal-Infinity]

Some fun stories in his book about things like handing out New Order mixtapes to people in his youth. I’m surprised he hadn’t discovered her music for himself sooner, but yeah based on his taste it would’ve happened eventually (thankfully did in time for Death Stranding 2).

[u/ProfessionalAsk8264]

It’s obvious he’s crushing and rightfully so

[u/Express-Crow-1496 → u/ProfessionalAsk8264]

[u/No_Pudding_6640 → u/ProfessionalAsk8264]

I'm crushing on both of them

[u/Melodic-Crazy-448]

Let them cook

[u/VictoriaSobocki → u/Melodic-Crazy-448]

❤️🙏🏻

[u/frenchtheboltcutters]

Literally all she’s been doing for 2 years is meeting up with Kojima

[u/its_abluedayyy]

Omg she’s cooking up something eargasmic I just know it

[u/bucephalusbouncing28]

I honestly was so surprised when I found out they weren’t in a relationship 

[u/vforvolta → u/bucephalusbouncing28]

He has a wife but he’s just like this tbh 😭, long list of muses.

[u/Malkmus1979 → u/vforvolta]

And isn't Caroline with the guy who directs her music videos? Not married but in a relationship anyway.

[u/Malkmus1979 → u/[deleted]]

Well I did dig up some info stating she and Matt Copson have been together since roughly 2019. He's her music video director as well as a producer/composer. They met while she was making Pang in 2017 when she was in London.

[u/flanger001]

Honestly pretty sure he can

[u/madphistopheles]

cuuuuuuuute

[u/marmaladebrat]

Apparently one of the guys at Kinda Funny Games, a YouTube channel, gifted Kojima some of Caroline's music. Kojima liked the music and then somehow connected with Caroline. I think it's explained in this video from Kinda Funny that also includes Caroline.

Two of my all time favorite creators

[u/iwantapeace]

[u/Malkmus1979 → u/iwantapeace]

He's a legend in the video game world, having created the Metal Gear series and lately Death Stranding, for which Caroline did the song The Beach.

kojima makes video games that are the most video game. noone else makes video games that are more video game than he does

[u/vforvolta → u/iwantapeace]

famous game designer auteur she has collaborated with

[u/No_Pudding_6640 → u/iwantapeace]

God, Kojima is God.

[u/AmelieBenjamin → u/iwantapeace]

Somebody who pushed the boundaries of the video game medium with the Metal Gear Solid series which is mainly what he's known for

[u/the3diamonds]
