DISCLAIMER: This episode goes into detail about Koichi Sugiyama's anti-LGBT+ and war denial opinions. While Dragon Quest games have been covered in the past, Sugiyama's views have not been presented until now. While the episode itself attempts to cover his views from an objective standpoint, I personally do not condone any of Sugiyama's political views.
