Welcome to today’s daily kōrero!

Anyone can make the thread, first in first served. If you are here on a day and there’s no daily thread, feel free to create it!

Anyway, it’s just a chance to talk about your day, what you have planned, what you have done, etc.

So, how’s it going?

    I’ve read two “new” webtoons in the past three days to clear my minds. Just because I watched the movie “The Boy and the Heron”.

    This movie it’s far beyond my expectations, makes it hard for my brain to digest. It’s a good movie but I expected something like " Princess Mononoke" or “Spirited Away”

      Would you recommend it? Especially to someone that hasn’t watched a lot of Japanese animation outside of Pokemon?

          Wow! I meant would you recommend the movie “The Boy and the Heron” but since you’ve given me a big list I feel obliged to watch a few!

            Sorry I think I need to re-watch “The Boy and the Heron” when my brain is ready 😂

            It’s a good movie, with a lot of messages and It’s hard to enjoy it if you’re not prepared. If you want a story that’s a little heavy, I would prefer Princess Mononoke or Nausicaa of the Valley of the Wind for starters.
