If I had a cent for every film I've watched this week, that's from 2023, is directed by a foreigner, has an asian protagonist living in a big city, deals with heavy emotional subjects subtlely, has an ethereal vibe all the way through, and starts with a P, I'd have 2 cents; which isn't a lot, but it is weird that it happened twice.
"do you want to take a picture?" no "did you get any pictures?" no "aren't you sad you didn't get any pictures?" NO!!!! i am the not picture taker. i have to remind myself to take occasional selfies with my boyfriend so we can prove to the korean government we've been dating sufficiently long to get married.
『30th Anniversary Yuki Kajiura LIVE vol.#18 ~The PARADE goes on~』 Live Report
Lisani posted a lengthy and in-depth live report of the Tokyo performance of 『30th Anniversary Yuki Kajiura LIVE vol.#18 ~The PARADE goes on~』! Be sure to check it out! There are also some lovely images included! I am in LOVE with their outfits! So happy there's a touch of pink. I hope they announce a streaming broadcast soon. There were cameras at the final Osaka performance after all so I'm sure they have some plans for the footage. They might actually release a DVD/BD? Who knows...
