Here come the Kojima haters with ill-placed I-told-you-so's. (something in me hates seeing the apostrophe, but without the apostrophe, it says "Sos" so...)
I'm not interested in Twilight, but damn... Let a guy like something you don't. He's an eccentric genius. He's allowed eclectic and even eccentric tastes (yay for e words) #hideokojima
Yeah, people can have their own tastes. But Twilight is a pop-culture abortion. I mean, I don't like Harry Potter, either, but at least Rowling has a bit of writing talent. Twilight prose is fucking awful. It reads like a 13 goth girl's manuscript from a summer school creative writing class. So I guess it totally makes sense Kojima likes it XD #hideokojima
This is understandable hence "Vamp" However, I'd say he was interested in vampires (or the genre) beforehand. I just think he'd share his interest in the vampire genre or character to the masses as he felt comfortable with it, nothing more. Another hint for you guys, "Castlevania" #hideokojima
Maybe in much the same way that things translated from Japanese to English often lose something in translation, perhaps things translated from English to Japanese gain something.
Like plot, characterization, cohesiveness, structure and literary value.

@RuBBa_cHiKiN: The real question is can it fit in the Batmobile?: In that picture though, his caption's saying "NOOOOOO!!!", but his body's saying "YEEESSS!!!". #hideokojima
Reading some of the comments, sounds like some people are insecure with their manhood. If Kojima likes the Twilight series, then more power to him! #hideokojima
Hideo Kojima doesn't need to like Twilight anymore,

If anything, this bit of trivia lessens my disdain for Hideo Kojima's convoluted, overwrought plotting. Anyone who appreciates Stephanie Meyer's "writing" or "plotting" must not take himself THAT seriously.
Good on you, Mr. Kojima. Good on you. #hideokojima
@Joshua Bell: You have the right to hate a group of people through an opinion based on a book series?
Well, if I happen to find anyone who disagrees with me on the quality of any of my favorite movies, they'd better be ready for a good ol' tar n' featherin'! #hideokojima
I'm a fan of what Kojima does, not what he likes, so what interests him is fine with me as long as it doesn't heavily leak into his work or conflict with my intersts. Never read any Twilight books, but more power to him and those who enjoy it. Hmm, so that's why Sadamoto heightens the romantic elements of the EVA manga.

Actually, yes we do have the right. We have the right to an opinion, deal with it. #hideokojima
