"the plot didn't make sense" yeah man, ever felt a sensation you can't describe, ever looked out the window to a reality only you can perceive, ever been witness to the entropy of your own brief universe, "sense" itself is a fictional concept, so did the shapes and sounds evoke a feeling or not

The song stuck in my head for the next couple weeks, since I watched this movie again

Good advice for something I've noticed as an issue many times over the years. The way characters can stop mid-sentence in Japanese often doesn't sound the least bit natural in English. I recommend saying the dialogue out loud to hear if it makes any sense as a stopping point.

Outside of the major metropolises and iconic landmarks, like Mt. Fuji, there is a dizzying wealth of beautiful nature spots in Japan. Here are some of the most iconic places to visit to get a dose of natural beauty on your next trip.

Today's topic for #GhibliSpotlight is On Your Mark (オン・ユア・マーク), a music video directed by Miyazaki Hayao for a song of the same name by CHAGE&ASKA. It was released together with the feature film Whisper of the Heart on 15 July 1995. 🧵 [1/11]

Anime Uno Happy Meals, in Canada. What a time to be alive.

For anyone looking for a really cool horror book to read I highly recommend "About a place in the Kinki region" by Sesuji! I am 1/3 in and its so good! Its all written in the form of articles, interviews and webpages! Highly rec if you love japanese horror and urban legends!

... So, basically everyone in Anisky needs to watch some actually bad anime films, is what I'm learning from the "worst anime film ever" discussion y'all are having

Last repost > The second volume of the Book Girl LNs uses Wuthering Heights for the basis of its plot, to give you an idea of how that series is for its cast of characters

if you want to actually like any of the protagonists Wuthering Heights is not the book for you if you are just here for Mess it is an incredible time

I recommend "Something's Wrong With Us" to all y'all

#games I reached credits for Silent Hill f at long last, so here's some general thoughts. Overall it's a good time, nice to see Silent Hill get a solid new release after all these years. I also think this sort of "anthology entry" is precisely the direction Silent Hill should have always gone in.

NiGHTS into Dreams (Saturn) (1996) 1/3

Baby Uni at 4 months old :3

#books #lightnovels Finished reading My Happy Marriage volume 2, by Akumi Agitogi. Another pleasant read overall. This follows up on a bunch of different plot points from the first volume that needed addressing, but impressively the story still felt cohesive, moving from scene to scene smoothly.

Godzilla vs Spacegodzilla (1994)

'Puyo Puyo Sun' was released on the SEGA Saturn 29 years ago today in Japan.

One of the funniest things about the old school mario cartoons is how they took the Airship level design literally

Amusing to know that Ota is aware the style will be too unorthodox for some, because at every chance he gets, he continues to emphasize the importance of finding new forms of expression. Great to have back to back projects like this, screw the idea that there's just one approach to Good Animation

What a wild swing from CITY to Denmoku. In the former, the stylized cels define the aesthetic that the backgrounds must follow, so the result is seamless simplicity. For the latter, painterly & abstract BGs have the leading voice, to the point of occasionally filtering character layers to match them

South Sea (Magical Truck Adventure, Arcade, Sega AM3, 1998)

The full map to the original Castlevania. This is a brilliant map. Despite seeing a map in between stages, you don't really think about how it all connects, but the flow lines up almost perfectly making one cohesive castle.

finally trying out one of these yakuza games

On the subject of the latter, a thing nobody tells you about the Amitabha Buddha is that he had windows

I'm hoping "Journal with Witch" will win me over, whenever I get around to watching that. I sure dislike that title though. It sounds so terribly clunky. What's extra annoying is that apparently a more literal translation of "Ikoku Nikki" is "Diary of a Strange Land," which sounds 100 times better.
