I’ve been getting some quality screen time in while staying at my folks’ house. I just finished Chihayafuru: Full Circle, and it was excellent. I really enjoyed the two live action movies, and this 10 episode Netflix series does a great job continuing the story. Almost all of the original cast makes appearances, which was such a fun surprise, but the main focus is on an entirely new team. I loved it!

I’m also making steady progress on Who Rules the World. I’m around episode 23 out of 40 now, so there is still plenty more to enjoy. Not a bad way to spend some downtime at all!

Mariko told me way back in 2007 that I would like Haken no Hinkaku, and here I am finally watching it eighteen years later. I am five episodes in and really enjoying it. The acting and plot are classic J-Dorama style, a little silly, a little unrealistic, and definitely over the top, but it all feels so familiar and cozy. And the best part is that there are two seasons waiting for me. I am excited to see the rest of the episodes!
