In Ryuhei Kitazume‘s new part, you might clock the peak-Transworld video style voiceover waxing poetic about the magic of ledges like it’s Kalis talking about Love in ’96, the Y2Kish jump-cut editing reminiscent of The Reason, or the music video that cuts halfway into the part. But Shinpei Ueno and the minds at Tightbooth have always ran this style.

Figure there is zero chance anybody who is a QS Monday Links reader would not have already seen Fred Gall’s “Spiritual Healing” part, but it would also be sacrilegious to not mention it.

“You needed to bring a mattress there ’cause you run right into a brick wall and you’ll die without a mattress.” Thrasher also posted up Brian Anderson’s interview with Fred Gall.

…aaannndddddd The Warm-Up Zone — the internet’s leading Fred Gall scholars — compiled a recap of the past 18 months of Freddy’s achievements leading up to the part.
