Hideo + Guillermo del Toro
How it Started: The creator of beloved films such as Hellboy, Pan’s Labyrinth, and Crimson Peak first came into Kojima’s life during Silent Hills began production, where they both served as directors. After its cancellation, all seemed lost, until it was revealed at the Game Awards that del Toro was also in Death Stranding as a character. As an apparent baby smuggler, but either way, he’s in it, and he’s none too happy with Konami having killed his and Hideo’s first baby.
Ship Name: DelJima
Where are they now? Exactly how much involvement del Toro has in Stranding beyond just being a character isn’t entirely clear, but one has to imagine that it’s substantial. Regardless, del Toro’s passionate tweets a few days ago make it clear that the ship is totally going strong, and nothing can ever break that.
