Michael B. Jordan may be a no-holds-barred badass in the world of Wakanda, but IRL he's actually just a nice guy.

He's happy to honour a lost bet, he's a big fan of anime, and he shares a home with his parents.

On Thursday, a tweet describing some of these lesser-known Jordan facts went viral.

So viral, in fact, that it caught the attention of the man himself. And he wanted to set the record straight on a few things...

Boom.

Turns out he really is a big anime fan, too.

Good for you, Michael B. Jordan. In 2018, no man should have to hide his love for anime.
