The Boy and the Beast: The Bond Between Parent and Child Depicted by Director Mamoru Hosoda
At age 9, I lost my mother, rebelled against relatives, and eventually ran away to live alone. My solitary life changed when I met Kumatetsu, who was also alone, and together we grew.

Honestly, the encounter between the heroine and the protagonist's father felt rushed. -
Movie Japan
Higurashi no ki. It is full of profound descriptions.
Junichi Okada, the star of this film, is gallant! The film is beautifully filmed as if representing the four seasons of Japan, and the clothes and the actors' appearance are understated and full of profound depictions. -

Kiyosu Conference
Slapstick drama in a good way. The Seishu Conference took place after the Honnoji Incident. Although it is a period drama, there is a vital element of political strife, with factional strife divided between the Shibata and Hashiba factions and maneuvering to draw out people from both camps.
