Grind Fiction(Aka Shibuya Punk) is An Aesthetic that blends Hip Hop, Street Culture, Anime, and Rebellious/Anti Corrupt Authority themes. This Aesthetic Originated from the 2000’s but is still depicted to this day. I LOVE this Aesthetic and I love showing my tribute to this aesthetic through my drawings(Except more of these type of drawings of mine in the future)🛹✨

Hi its me again! Lol.

I wanted to ask an interesting question.

Would you consider Sorry We're Closed part of the Grind Fiction/Shibuya Punk genre/subculture?

If you're not familiar Grind Fiction/Shibuya Punk is media like Jet Set Radio, Dorohedoro, The World Ends With You, Gachiakuta, Fooly Cooly, Samurai Champloo, Dandadan, Scott Pilgrim, No More Heroes, and Soul Eater... sorry for the long list just wanted to include many different examples to what the genre can entail.

Things like the graphics clearly feeling very much like Jet Set's low poly goodness, the vibrant designs, the way they dress, paired with a soundtrack that delves HEAVY into Hip-Hop during the bosses (going as far as referencing wu-tang clan, jenny still the best song in the game), the themes the story has and how its handled and told, and taking place in an urban section of London (Bomb Rush Cyberfunk's cousin?! lol).

Personally I think it fits nicely into the genre/subculture of Grind Fiction as someone deep in that genre+culture myself! but I'm not a creative on the game! So I thought why not ask someone who IS!

Ah I didn't even realise there was a whole genre dedicated to that feeling. I guess it's one of those things where I didn't work on it with this genre specifically in mind, but if people want to label it as such it feels appropriate. It's a pretty strong cultural style that was very emblematic of my childhood, and I think really encapsulates that "cultural worlds are colliding" in what I like to call "positive futurism" - this feeling that things arn't perfect now, but they're getting better with a sense of playfulness and ethereal rawness that we didn't have to grow out. The world was connecting and the possibilities were limitless. I still try to cling onto that feeling, or what remains of it within me. Glad to know there's a whole subculture out there that people have come to define! What a wonderful delightful thing to learn!
