The manbun doesn’t bother me.

are they even using some type of contouring for the eye sockets there.

This is what really stunned me about this hairdoo. 30 years after Watchmen we have real life knot-tops.

I still remember when John Belushi made the mistake of saying 'Yo Mama!" to Richard Pryor while they were both doing the samurai thing. Belushi was famous for NEVER, EVER stepping out of that character. Until Pryor gave him that look and Belushi just went “Sorry, sorry” and stepped away.
