2025: My Second Quarter in Anime

One more three-month block defined by new anime series showing up opened with me aware something would be different in my case. My latest long vacation was scheduled for the block’s last weeks. For the moment still lingering behind many other people and awaiting their judgments on shows, this might not have been an overwhelming difference. Still, I did work through a bit of scheduling to make sure I could finish everything I’d been thinking about seeing before leaving. I also happened in the opening weeks of the quarter to view Princess Mononoke at the movies. Perhaps this could be seen as a more genteel version of “no wonder movies are the way they are with people only willing to spend money on ‘expected quantities,’” but I did seem able to find something added by “the theatrical presentation.”
