    wondering how they're gonna fit Sophon in so early.

    The producers (the two guys who ruined Game of Thrones by being man-children who hate story-telling as a concept and love giant CGI zombie bear attacks) wanted their katana-wielding robot waifu on screen ASAP. We'll probably get some long pointless fight scenes so Sophon can use the katana.

    Any theme of Japanese culture being a mask of monstrous imperialism will be lost, because the show runners openly say themes are only for 4th grade book reports, and they definitely believe it, because the only part of Game of Thrones they cared about filming was that pointless fucking zombie bear.

    It's incredible that those two were handed this project. Perfectly representative of American media rewarding the most juvenile talentless boys with bigger and bigger projects.
