2022-11-21 23:39:44 +0000 UTCNot only are you currently watching my no.1 favourite anime/manga right now Haikyuu but you are also starting another of my favourite stories of all time Sangatsu no Lion ♥️it’s a good time to be a Patreon of yours! Honestly I know it can be cliche to say that a story saved your life but in complete honesty this show absolutely did that for me. It was soo deeply effecting for me that it was borderline painful to watch at time but in the best most healing way possible. I would suddenly find myself sobbing at an episode realising that my old trauma wounds weren’t necessarily healed yet. I genuinely used this show in therapy sessions. 😄 This show and story is beautiful and a true masterpiece in my eyes and I’m very excited to be on your journey through it!

2022-11-21 09:32:35 +0000 UTCThis is one of my favorite animes of all time. It really was adapted amazingly by the studio, the OST is amazing, and the art style and narrative of the manga was perfectly captured. It's a deep and heavy ride, and it perfectly captures the goods and bads of life and how to deal with many tough things.

2022-11-21 04:06:58 +0000 UTCGreat to see you start with March Comes In Like a Lion! Umino Chika is one of my favorite authors. She is able to portray loneliness and melancholy as well as affection and empathy so beautifully. Her unique art style also has this charm of magical realism which the animation studio captures really well in this adaptation. Can’t wait for you to get to know more of the wonderful cast especially the lovely Kawamoto family!

2022-11-21 03:59:52 +0000 UTCYes, it's a long qc today, but I was EXCITED “You know the show’s gonna be heavy when it starts off with geometric shapes,” “Gotta stay hydrated before you play this foreign game I know nothing about,” “How did they get footage of my room?” “Just living my best live with no girl, no friends, and sad musical montages,” “One sugary beverage is just not enough,” “There’s so much natural beauty, but at the same time, just this profound feeling of loneliness,” “Don’t do this to me right now, what is that, curry and ice cream goblets?,” (Oh Goodwin’s going to be TORTURED with the food in this series lmao) “Sometimes the greatest despair comes from punishment or pain that feels random or undeserved,” “Accept our love, dammit,” (The Kawamotos in a nutshell) “This guy seems like the classic crusty old grandpa with a heart of gold,” “The lunch of champions: soccer onigiri and sausage,” “I know that pain-tinged beauty of being in a situation so great yet having a heart that’s aching for something else,” “Responsibility is just recognizing that what is in your control is in your control,” “They understand that they’re not gonna solve his problems for him, but they’re just being warm,” (In this house we love and respect the Kawamotos with our life) “I’m sure there’s a lot to love, it might just takes time,”

2022-11-21 02:48:12 +0000 UTCFun fact, the end card for this episode was drawn by renown manga artist Kentaro Miura (author of Berserk): https://3lion-anime.com/assets/img/special/endcard/edcard01.jpg - both are serialized in the same magazine, Young Animal.

2022-11-21 02:17:12 +0000 UTCEveryone, if you would just take a moment to imagine an interaction between Momo Kawamoto and Anya Forger, each an adorable young pink-haired girl with bright green eyes. Thank you. That is all.

2022-11-21 02:03:02 +0000 UTCSpeaking of Mob Psycho 100, the teacher that ate with Rei on the roof, Takashi Hayashida, is also the voice of Reigen Arataka in the sub. Also, I'm beyond excited to rewatch this amazing series alongside you. You never disappoint with your commentary and analysis.

2022-11-21 01:57:42 +0000 UTCMy time has come!! It’s MY turn to be the language nerd here! MWAHAHAHA The song that plays as Rei begins his day is called ‘En Fermant Les Yeux’ by Solita, so ‘Closing Your Eyes’ in English. It is actually my favorite song of all time The song is also WAY too hard to find so here’s the link with French lyrics and English in the description. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JyLg6znBg9M (note, they did leave out the lyric ‘Jusqu'au lendemain/ until tomorrow’ at 3:16) Now, the anime only shows the first two verses and the chorus under all the background noise, and the full song does show Rei’s journey as a whole. I’ll translate just some highlights, because otherwise this would get WAY too long. “J’étais enfermé dans ma peine” - “I was trapped in my pain” “Je peux changer les couleurs sombres de ma vie”- “I can change the somber colors of my life” “Dans cette ville noir, je vois un immense arc-en-ciel” - “In this dark town, I see a huge rainbow”
