#thankfulthursday @Cosmos_Moon

1. Working from home with little interaction with my family and friends. We didn‘t spend any time with family over the holidays.
2. I‘m grateful that my baby boy is growing and wiggling away inside my tummy, a roof over my head, and my husband who thankfully knows how to fix a broken house.

Thanks for the tag @Eggs!

Want to play @Texreader

Mitsuha and Taki weren‘t meant to meet but met through a dream.

Really good!

Not technically book related but:

I usually put on The Life Aquatic Sessions (100% Portuguese David Bowie covers) for my students to listen to when they work on Friday Brain Teasers, but today I put on the Your Name soundtrack and thought I would share the wonderful.

All the physical books that I read in August! Not shown are two Kindle books. Most of these were 3.5-5 star reads too! 😃😃😃

BiblioNyan @Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks It was very good! It's a bit slow in certain parts, but overall I enjoyed it quite a lot. The fantasy is well-written and the world building was great. The romance wasn't very tropey either. 7y

Haul 8 of 10!! The manga were preorders and they are positively GORGEOUS editions!! The light novel, Your Name., was sent to me for review purposes, and it's positively fabulous so far! Although I can tell my emotions are gonna be all over the place by the time I get to the finale. 😭😭

I received this recently for review and I can't express how excited I am to be able to read this. Unfortunately, I have not seen the film yet. But I absolutely adore Makoto Shinkai, so I have high hopes for it. 💙 It's a story about a boy and a girl who are experiencing one another's lives via a unique means.

Double love this Saturday! I love my weekend viewing of #DragRace! Anyone else watch?

Also anyone who loves Miyazaki go find and see 'your name'. The movie was utterly fantastic! So beautiful and takes you on a mind bender! I got my hand on the light novel and I'm excited to see how it translates!

sarahrushtxn Another drag race fan! I was beginning to think I was the only one on Litsy 7y

So I'm about to finally see my favorite movie ever on the big screen. I've so far only been able to watch torrented versions on my computer so I am so excited that it's finally in US theaters. I love this movie with all my heart. Even people who don't watch anime can appreciate the magnificence of this movie. Check to see if it's playing in your area. It's called Kimi No Na Wa (Your Name)

angrylilasian This looks so good!! It's only playing in California right now. 😩 8y
Alisnazzy @angrylilasian I'm in Florida. Don't check funimation for places it's playing. Just check your local theaters and see if it's playing. I thought the same thing initially but then I just thought I'd look at my theaters listings and it was there and I literally jumped for joy. 8y
LauraBeth It's playing near me - maybe I'll take my daughter to see it this afternoon 😀 8y

angrylilasian @Ambrosnazzy It is playing here!! My search had defaulted to California for some reason! I'm so glad you told me to look again. I can't wait to see it! (edited) 8y
TobeyTheScavengerMonk I've heard amazing things about this movie. Was reading about it just yesterday. Going to be an auto-buy when it hits blu-ray. Have you seen The Place Promised in Our Early Days? 8y
Alisnazzy @TobeyTheScavengerMonk yep! This is 1000 times better. I'm telling you; it's actually surpassed Spirited Away as greatest anime movie for me (and a lot of other people too). That's how freaking amazing it is. 8y
Alisnazzy @angrylilasian YESSSS! I've literally watched it around 40 times at home in the past three months. I can't begin to explain how amazing it is. 8y
Alisnazzy @LauraBeth do it!!! It'll be totally worth it. 8y
moranadatter Wow! That looks great! Thanks for the rec! 8y
jfalkens I want to see it! Now to find it in theaters lol 8y
Alisnazzy @moranadatter @jfalkens You both have to find it! And if you get to see it, let me know what you think. I feel like Littens would appreciate this movie so much ☺ 8y
Chachic I loved this movie! So glad I got to see it when it was shown in Singapore. I posted about it too but under this tag: 8y
moranadatter @Ambrosnazzy It's playing at the theater a couple of blocks from me so I'm going to see it tonight. 8y
Alisnazzy @moranadatter YESSSS! Let me know what you think! 8y
moranadatter @Ambrosnazzy I loved it! Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! Great story and some of the most beautiful animation I have seen. 8y
Alisnazzy @moranadatter OMG yes!!! I'm so glad you liked it! I rewatched it on Sunday night at my house. I can't wait until it's out on blu ray and I'm not watching a torrented version that's not as clear as can be. It's seriously me favorite movie and I still sob through the entire second half. 8y

This Japanese animated film was my first Makoto Shinkai movie but definitely won't be my last! Beautiful storytelling with gorgeous scenes set in rural and urban Japan, I enjoyed every bit of this young adult film where a teenage boy and girl swap bodies. The humor was perfectly balanced with the overarching theme of longing, and wanting and searching for something just out of your reach. Highly recommended👍🎬

Desha I want to see this so much! I love Hayao Miyazaki and I've heard good things about this one!! ☺️😍❤️ 8y
Chachic @Desha Apparently Makoto Shinkai is being dubbed as "the new Miyazaki". I hope you're able to watch this soon!? I need to watch the rest of Miyazaki's movies, I've only seen Howl's Moving Castle.? 8y
Desha Yes I hope it comes to us soon! My local theater had a Miyazaki film festival this summer and it was so much fun! ❤️ 8y

Chachic @Desha Lucky! I wish they'd do something like that in Singapore so I can binge watch all his movies. People keep raving about Spirited Away, Princess Mononoke and My Neighbor Totoro. 8y
Desha I hope they do that for you too! This past summer they did show Spirited Away, Princess Mononoke and My Neighbor Totoro! They were so good...I had never seen them before! 😍 8y
itstimeana The other Shinkai movie I really loved was 5 Centimeters per Second. Lakas makahugot. 😂 I hope I can watch this one too! Not sure if it will find a way to Manila cinemas anytime soon. I think it's shortlisted for the Oscars, though, so there's a chance? 8y
Chachic @Desha Those are the popular ones, I think! Also Kiki's Delivery Service. He has a few others but not as well-known. 8y
Chachic @itstimeana Sobrang drama raw ng 5 Centimeters sabi ng friend ko! Haha I need to look up the trailer to see. I hope Your Name gets shown in Manila, I'm sure enjoy kayong #romanceclass people manood nyan.💅 8y
Chachic @itstimeana The comment above isn't supposed to have 💅 hahaha. Too lazy to delete and type it up again. 8y
Desha Yes! They had a showing of Kiki's Delivery Service but I didn't get to see it 🙁 Next time! 😊 8y
Chachic @Desha I hope they show it again next time! Where is your town/city, by the way?😊 8y
Desha @Chachic San Diego CA. A new movie theater just went in by my house and it has these kind of special film festivals...I love it! 😍 8y
Chachic @Desha I got to visit San Diego (very briefly) back in 2009. But I was in LA, SF and Las Vegas for a longer period of time.😊 8y
Desha @chachic Come back and visit again! Lots of sunshine and beautiful beaches here! And a summer Miyazaki Festival lol 😜😍❤️📚 8y
Chachic @Desha It's eternally summer both in Singapore and the Philippines and there are lots of beaches too.😜 8y
Desha Lol awesome!!!! Maybe I need to come visit then! 😍😊❤️ 8y
