Kevin, CEO of Glitch, has shared a statement addressing fans and the industry:
“Animation and cinema is art. Art is human expression. Digital Circus was a deeply personal story created to express complex feelings. Please let that be the signal you take from all of this."
I worked out just for this cosplay. So I had the stamina and strength to withstand being in the suit for long periods of time. Also, I wanted to be able to get myself up bc the suit is heavy. I was constantly in a squat position when walking with my hands up.

How many cartoons can you name where a Black boy is the hero? Not a sidekick, or comic relief, but the one who gets to dream, to fall, and grow. For too many Black boys, the first time they see themselves is in headlines, obituaries, or mugshots. It’s time for something new.
I feel like I should say if you think you're "on my side" by saying genuine racist hateful things to black people in the fandom, then it is my personal belief that you should shoot yourself in the head with a gun.
12 years and they still aren’t done with the pipes, cancer rates are through the roof, the kids haven’t seen a dime of the settlement money, and not a single person has been held accountable. Flint ain’t fixed!!!!

Creators like myself are trying so hard to contribute to indie animation. Studios continuously cut our jobs, remove POC & queer folks.. so it's time to do our own thing w/out permission.
BTW if you like magical girls, pls watch my pilot WHEELS & ROSES, it's a whole lotta fun🛼✨
