Was really pulling for the live action one… but then Chadwick Boseman 📿🙏 … I haven’t seen if the production has found a new actor or not. Someday we will get a grounded version. But as they say in the book, there’s not a lot of sources. There’ll always be a degree of license.

Watched the first ep of the anime and WOW! I am glad Lesean Thomas put a giant mech in the first scene as if to say “Back off history nerds! This is ANIME not a LECTURE!” Appreciate the expectation management right off the bat. Still watching tho since it looks like great anime.

Yeah, it is like a TV “dramatization” which is good for narrative, but makes it hard to discern the historical truth from the literary license. I think you have to be pretty solid in your J-Hist to read this, or take it as pure entertainment like the Netflix Yasuke (cf mechs!)

Since I type everything I am TERRIBLE at hand writing kanji. I can read quite a bit, tho reading novels and the like is a struggle.
I envy you for going to an intensive course! That sounds so great. I need an intensive MECHANIC, since I feel so broken and full of holes 😂

Today was the perfect day to leave our island… for ANOTHER island! Tatsunoshima is just off the coast of #ikijima #壱岐, has beautiful water and a “Snake Canyon”. I collected the live travel report from earlier into a thread for you. Come join us on the waves and cliffs! 🧵

This massive squid boat came all the way from Hokkaido! It is on a 6 month tour. They are doing repairs before heading back. Notice all the ink on the walls where the fishing net winches are!? 🦑🦑🦑

Climbed up to the top of the cliff. In 1905 the Russian Baltic fleet passed right by here before being defeated by Japan, surprising the world

We made a big bouquet to take home but only had an empty cup of beer to fill with water before putting it in the car before our boat trip. Hopefully those flowers will make it until we get home!

Island Brewery is a newly opened craft beer joint right across from LAMP. They are inviting everyone to take flowers home from their opening.

Gentle breeze and cloudless sky. Perfect day to take a boat over to Tatsushima, a small island off the coast of #ikijima #壱岐 where you can take a short hike to see some epic rock formations and spend time at a beautiful sandy beach.

Are you shooting for a JLPT or some sort of certification? Or just looking to improve generally?
I decided to take the JLPT with my kids this summer in solidarity with them. Think it will be a good symbol of their time in Japan.

When I worked with Indian developers and project managers they would say this all the time, but usually in writing. I don’t know if I ever heard it in speech though.
