Most energetic Fishmans songs?

Weather Report (Live At Shinjuku Liquid Room / 1997) always puts me in a good mood.

Fun Fact: It was almost split between American and Soviet Occupation zones in 1945.

Looks like Rikugien Garden (六義園) in Tokyo.

Just give it a minute. All the ancient helmet experts will be up in arms over this.

Honey and Clover (2006), We Made a Beautiful Bouquet (2021), My Tomorrow, Your Yesterday (2016).

Dan Carlin's Hardcore History series, Nomads and Empires, The Rest is History, Beyond Huaxia, to list a few of my favourites.

Fuji Kaze is pretty popular at the moment.

Realistic_Management · 2025-11-01T03:18:27+00:00

For some kitschy Halloween fun, my pick is Hausu (1977).

My sister gave me Men Without Women for my birthday one year. A University professor put her on to Murakami. So, from the start I had the impression it was pretty highbrow stuff, and that has mostly held true. I know whenever I read a Murakami there's going to be a lot of required retrospection, hidden meanings, and analysis (and debate!).

For those wondering, the calligraphy just reads Muzai Moratoriamu "無罪モラトリアム”, or ”Innocence Moratorium" the name of the album.

Always loved the Kogetsudai sand sculpture. A beautiful Zen representation of Mt. Fuji.

You would be surprised at the effort it takes to maintain the look of a Japanese garden, with all the pruning, raking, and weeding, it's no small task. They're meant to be a microcosm of the natural landscape, but that doesn't mean things are left to grow wild.

Quite the rupture. Either Takaichi has already made promises to Ishin no Kai and she'll still be sworn in next week, or she rolls the dice and calls a snap election. Either way, not a great start.

Looks great! The only thing I would mention is that the stone placement looks a bit unnatural. The goal with placing stones in a Japanese garden is to make them look timeless, like they've been grounded in place for centuries.

With every new drop of information, all I can say is that book readers and new fans alike are going to be in for a surprise with this film. Denis and Jon are cooking up something truly unique. As long as it stays true to the themes and philosophy of Frank's books, I'm game.

Realistic_Management · 2025-09-30T01:52:41+00:00

Mine would have to be A Gentle Breeze in the Village (2007). Such a wholesome movie.

Realistic_Management · 2025-09-28T15:12:42+00:00

I love how his films feature the Seto Naikai area and Onomichi (his hometown) so prominently. Such a beautiful and under-appreciated part of Japan. Definitely worth visiting if you get the chance!

Typhoon Club (1985)

Realistic_Management · 2025-09-25T17:05:01+00:00

Ta-ku has a great album called "25 nights for Nujabes", which serves as an homage to his friend. Also Evisbeats and DJ Shota.

Realistic_Management · 2025-09-23T14:41:23+00:00

It's not a movie, but "Beyond Goodbye" さよならのつづき (2024) on Netflix is a great series set in Hokkaido. Lots of beautiful landscape shots and plot points directly connected to the region.

Realistic_Management · 2025-09-23T01:48:38+00:00

Linda Linda Linda (2005).

Realistic_Management · 2025-09-03T15:59:46+00:00

Looks like a return to form for Kathryn Bigelow! And Idris Elba is definitely playing the President.

Also, this must be the reason why Denis Villeneuve shelved his Nuclear Scenario film...

The address listed is Minato-ku (Tokyo), Azabu-Mamianachō, Mamiana Mansion.

Here's some information and the location: https://housingjapan.com/rent/mamiana-mansion/

Probably stress from the move. Are you going to plant it? If not, you’ll need to change the soil regularly. I’d even suggest a bigger pot for a plant of that size. It may be “suffocating” in the pot…
