I was browsing Disney Plus last night and came across Zen – Grogu and Dust Bunnies. What a fun little story that combines Star Wars and Studio Ghibli. I liked it very much.
It was very different from the show I watched next, which I also enjoyed. Episodes 8-11 of Andor were excellent. Probably my favorite of the Star Wars television series.
My brother always sends funky gifts. This was an early birthday present. I love these pants!
I started watching Only Murders in the Building today. I love it! I am a huge fan of Steve Martin and Martin Short, and they are hilarious in this murder-mystery. I made it through 4 episodes and am looking forward to more. It’s so fun!
The other day, I put the original watch band that came with my Seiko SXK007 back on. I had removed it when I first got the watch because it was so hard and uncomfortable, replacing it with a variety of NATO/Zulu bands, which I liked.
Recently, I read a review about the original band saying it just takes a few days to break in and then it’s fine. And it’s true! It’s still hard, but now that it is holding its round shape, it is very comfortable and I like the classic dive-watch look. I think I’ll keep it like this for a while. 😀
This evening I finished season 2 of one of Laid-Back Camp / ゆるキャン△ which is one of my favorite manga/anime. I love camping, Japan, and motorbikes, and this anime has all three! I also don’t like violent or gory shows (Demon Slayer is pretty much my limit) and Laid-Back Camp is neither. It’s a wholesome, slice-of-life anime which actually imparts some basic camping knowledge and sightseeing tips for the Yamanashi Prefecture in Japan. It’s fun!
Anyways, the Laid-Back Camp movie is scheduled to be released in Japan next month, and hopefully it’ll make it’s way to the US. I hope I can catch it on the big-screen!
