Our Little Sister

Movies watched in 2024

Our Little Sister (2015, Japan)

Director & Writer: Hirokazu Kore-eda (based on the manga by Akimi Yoshida)

Mini-review:

Hirokazu Kore-eda is the master of slice-of-life cinema (something I already knew, of course). He's just the best at seamlessly putting together everyday vignettes and situations, like in this case. Not much happens in the movie, but all the characters are so complex and fascinating, even the ones that only show up a few times. The movie really draws you in and makes you feel part of these characters' lives. The star-studded cast does a fantastic job, showcasing the naturalistic acting style and the homely chemistry that characterize Kore-eda's films. And the cinematography is lovely as well, obviously. So yeah, Our Little Sister is classic Kore-eda and a must-watch for his fans.

Irina's night✨️💙

Irina is walking in a dark forest at night, paying attention to any movement and alert in case a demon appears. She walks slowly until something makes noise in some bushes. Irina turns around quickly, already holding her sword, ready to fight.

"Who's there??"

She asks fearlessly, until a silhouette emerges from the shadows!! It's Shinobu.

"Hello Irina."

"S-Shinobu?"

Irina takes a step back.

"Look what I have here."

Shinobu is holding a giant onion!! Irina panics.

"AAAAAAAAAHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

Irina falls out of bed and wakes up, she looks everywhere in the room, when she sees that there is no Shinobu and onions, she calms down. Kishin opens the door quickly

"IRINA, ARE YOU OKAY?!?"

"OH!!! Yes, I'm fine!"

Irina tries to disguise what happened. Kishin sees that everything is fine so he calms down.

"Was it the onion nightmare again?"

"NOOO!!"

Irina is embarrassed, Kishin holds back his laughter.

"That's not funny!!!"

Irina throws a pillow at Kishin, who starts laughing a lot.

"Oh, a pillow fight? Hehehe"

Yuina had come to see what happened, but when she saw that Kishin was laughing, then she knew everything was fine. Irina hugs another pillow she has (Irina sleeps with a lot of pillows) and is ashamed of her silly fear. Kishin goes to Irina and sits next to her.

"Relax Irina, it's okay, I'll protect you from any onions there are!!"

Irina hugs Kishin and buries her face in his chest.

"Thank you Kiki..."

They both blush, Kishin hugs Irina back until she sleeps peacefully.

(I don't even know why I wrote this, I just wanted to say that Irina's biggest fears are Shinobu and onions XD)

Thank you very much if you read this far and forgive me for any writing errors(*´▽｀)💕💖

Mei-chan no Shitsuji (Hoshigumi 2011) subs

AT LAST. between travel, wedding planning, and covid, this kind of fell by the wayside for a bit, but IT'S DONE. my first two act!!!

first of all, wow, otoha minori is great. that could be my entire translation notes. she's so cute. all the musumeyaku in this show are so cute. and the otokoyaku are just as good!! we have suave ikemen beni, loudmouth osananajimi miyaruri, and villain yurika, please, i am a simple creature, act 2 was so hard to sub because i kept blushing. plus, tiny baby kiki and coto! i didn't actually watch this show in full before i started my sub, and wanting to know what happens next was SUCH a motivator, lol. if you're familiar with the manga, it's pretty close except for some things left out or rearranged; if you're familiar with the drama, it is QUITE different. tl;dr this show is SO MUCH FUN, and if you like tropey 00s shoujo it is not to be missed.

TL notes:

yamada tami. all of her lines switch between several regional dialects, so i just kind of..... went ham ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

i do not believe in localizing honorifics when a story's set in japan, so. pretend you're all reading manga in 2004 with the little vocab guide in the back cover! i DID translate ojousama, because it's like, half the dialogue, and "my lady" felt romantic.

there's a line about "demon hunting" re: shinobu, which makes sense in the manga where he's referred to as the "white demon" - this got dropped from the script, so i localized it out.

timed to: the bluray, recorded 2/21/11

check my shows page (zungumi dot tumblr dot com slash shows) for the DL!

Hihi!!

It's Kiki!!

Can some friendship headcanons for Tengen and/or Kyojuro 😶

You don't have to do it, I don't mind!

Thank you!!

Kyojuro as your best friend

You picked one of the best people out there to have a friend with.

You both definitely eat together.

He brings you food when you're busy or you forgot to eat, although if he has a mission, he most likely sends Senjuro to give you the food.

I mean, as long as you get it and you like it, he's happy.

He'll let you try on his haori for the fun of it.

Hell, he'll let you take his clothes if you are at his house.

Oh, you're friends with Kyojuro, well, allow him to immediately introduce you to his little brother.

Probably didn't introduce you to Shinjuro. He learned about you when he saw you just chilling at his house.

He was pissed about it at first, but he honestly never even bothered to be around you.

If you are a demon slayer and a female, then he would be the one who burns your uniform if it's too revealing, not Shinobu.

Visits you literally every single day.

If you get injured on a mission, he'd basically live at the Butterfly Estate until he knows that you are better.

Senjuro will probably stay there as well.

Bonus: Shinjuro always wonder where the hell they go when this happens.

Tengen as your best friend

You managed to get someone so flashy as your best friend? I applaud you.

He doesn't just let you wear his headwear, he'd buy you one.

He'd probably spend his money on you with spending fancy looking clothes and accessories, with the help of his wives of course.

Over protective of you tbh.

You can be doing something so small, but for some reason he always calls you flashy.

Piggy back rides!

Acts more like an older brother to an extent.

If you are a female and you finally get your uniform, he would think that it was so unflashy and instead of burning it, he'd grip on it while glaring menacingly at the kakushi.

He takes you out on walks with his wives in villages, and maybe even buys you four things.

His wives love you tbh.

You weren't introduced to them immediately, but when you were, they were instantly fond of you.

If you're shorter than him, he'd tease you about it.

He doesn't like to bring up his living family since the only living family he has is toxic as hell.

He still told you about them though, but he refused to let you meet them.

Fandoms & Ships

I am a true nerd, and as such, continously seek out new media and their fandoms, and become involved with them, while also cyclically coming back to the ones I already love. I am a romantic, and I love seeing love in general (all types of love, not just romantic!), so I am also a very big shipper!

I don't always have a set ship(s) for every fandom I find myself in, nor do I think it necessary to try and "prove" that mine are better than other ships. I like what I like, and I like seeing what others like as well. So I might have OTPs, but I also like engaging with content for all kinds of ships, even true rarepairs.

I also don't think it necessary for a fandom to have ships, so just because I have a listed ship that I like/love, doesn't mean I can't have neutral/objective thoughts and opinions about that particular piece of media.

That being said, here's a list of fandoms I come back to, or keep up with, and a list of ships I have a preference for. OTPs are bolded! Oh, and media (as in the series, books, shows, etc.) are rated according to my opinion!

Atmospherics

Fandom: Genshin Impact Pairing: Kuki Shinobu/Shikanoin Heizou Summary: Heizou is detective and Shinobu is a lawyer in modern Teyvat. They were childhood friends, separated by different paths. When they come together again, Shinobu realizes that some things are never truly over. A Tears of Themis AU Ao3 Link

Shinobu had long since considered herself as having grown up. She’d moved away from the shrine village of the mountain a few years ago, defying her parents’ hopes for her dreams and future to move to Liyue to study the art of law under the finest experts in all of Teyvat. It was there that she had learned so much more than just the law. 

She’d learned how to cook and keep house, but she also had learned how to exist with herself, how to learn a new set of skills, and how to market herself as an independent woman. 

By the time she’d returned to Inazuma, she could hardly recognize the girl she’d once been. Of course, she didn’t go back to her village—instead she had gone to Inazuma City, to work for the Themis Law Firm there. She kept an apartment in the heart of the City of Eternity, and had made a name for herself. Kuki Shinobu, the lawyer who could take on nearly any case, the personal protege of the legendary Deng Yanfei. She ignored the calls from home, the voice messages begging her to come back now that she had her education and her fun.

When would they figure out that this wasn’t about fun, or some hedonistic impulse?

She would never come back to her hometown. She’d left her childhood behind, all memories under the pinkish glow of the sakura blooms and turquoise-blue moonlight. 

But Shinobu never expected a piece of her childhood to come back to her, to come bursting into her independent life in the city. 

It started with a case at Shimura’s restaurant, a class-action lawsuit by a group of businessmen who claimed to be poisoned by the pesticide used in the building. One of his waitresses, a young woman— who he had been supporting to go to the university, as he had so many students before—- had requested Shinobu’s aid in trying to fight the lawsuit. 

“I know he isn’t careless,” she’d told Shinobu while wringing her hands. “I just know that someone’s framed him!”

Shinobu didn’t like the idea of letting an old man lose everything like that. So of course, she took the case and agreed to help Shimura. When she came to investigate and figure out if they had a case, she knew that the waitress had also hired a detective to help her. 

But when the detective came through the door, she wasn’t expecting to see none other than her childhood best friend.

“Well, well, well, if it isn’t Kiki Shinobu.” His mint green eyes surveyed her a moment before they met her own violet ones. “Fancy seeing you here.”

“Hello, Heizou.” Shinobu placed a hand on her hip. “So you did become a detective after all.”

He’d laughed. “Took a while, but I got there eventually.” 

The way he looked at her, Shinobu knew he wasn’t just talking about the detective job. 

Of course, after their initial investigation, Shinobu insisted on going out to dinner with him. They could catch up, as old friends. As the sun set over the hills, they spoke about what they’d been up to in the last few years. 

Heizou had been the first to leave their small town on top of Mount Narukami. Too clever for her own good and brighter than the midday sun, he burned for glory, so of course he’d graduated a year early. He’d gotten a full ride to the university on Watatsumi Island, pursuing forensic science, a good and sensible career. Everyone was proud, excited for him.

Shinobu was too, although she remembered that last rainy afternoon before he left for good. 

“It’s not like I’ll be gone forever,” he’d promised her then. “You can’t get rid of me that easily. Besides, with your talents, you’ll be there with me in another year.”

He was right, in a way. Perhaps growing up on Mount Narukami had given him the gift of prophecy in hanging around the shrine all the time. 

Then again, he hadn’t been entirely right. Shinobu’s life had gone down a completely different path, one that nobody expected. Least of all her. 

She’d applied to the university on Watatsumi Island in hopes of joining Heizou. But they’d declined her, for one reason or another. Shinobu wasn’t entirely sure. Not that she could have been sad about it for long. The day after her rejection came in from Watatsumi Island, she’d received a full ride for Liyue Harbor’s most prestigious university and had been put on the track to study law like she’d always dreamed. 

She’d applied on a whim, a misplaced sense of having flown too close the sun, for surely it wouldn’t happen?

“And yet it did.” Heizou folded his arms over his chest and leaned back, clearly impressed. “And look at you now.”

“Look at you—you finally became a detective.” Shinobu paused, thinking of the years with no letters, not even so much as a phone call or an email or a text. “What happened, by the way? I thought you were fogging to become a forensic scientist, not a detective.”

A smile played at his lips, but something darker lingered in his eyes. “What can I say? Like you, the plan changed.”

Shinobu narrowed her eyes and said nothing. She knew better, she could read him too well. But she knew there was also no point in pressuring him. 

Besides, who knew if their paths would continue to cross?

Naturally, their paths crossed plenty of times after that. More investigations, all linked together by mysterious drugs and chemical substances brought them together. They’d become a team for the cops to call, the most elite detective and lawyer, surely making Inazuma all the safer for it. 

They didn’t keep it to work either. It became trips to Homuland Inazuma, a sleep-in at the aquarium. They tried making jade parcels from Liyue, from a cookbook that Shinobu had picked up during her cooking phase in college. Going to escape rooms and doing scavenger hunts together on their weekends off. 

She’d surprise him with some new skill she’d picked up in her time away. He’d hint at yet another secret, a new mystery about the years away that he wasn’t ready yet to reveal. She hoped someday he would. 

It was on a rainy morning as Shinobu sorted through old photographs sent courtesy of her mother as she listened to Variations on a Theme of Schumann that she had an epiphany. Seeing the green-haired girl who chased after the bold, daring boy in the photos, quietly making sure their misadventures ended in safety, it reminded her of how she had once felt when they were both children. 

Some things were never really over, she’d realized. And she had never been over the childhood crush she’d held for Shikanoin Heizou. It was different now that they were both adults, it was something deeper and more complex. But she could recognize the base of it for what it was, the flame that had never gone out, the storm that never ceased. 

It was then that she knew how she felt, and she had to tell him. Not over text or phone, no digital form could properly express the ever-dancing lightning inside of her. 

Without abandon, she sprinted into the rain. 

Others might have feared the rain pelting Shinobu’s skin, the lightning’s arc overhead or the howling winds. But how could Shinobu fear the storm? For that was her and Heizou in their very souls, they were the essence of the storm. An unstoppable force, meant to be together. 

She was completely soaked through by the time she showed up outside of Heizou’s door. But she didn’t care. 

“I love you,” she said when he opened the door. 

She didn’t expect him to take on that disapproving, pitiful look. “We can’t.”

“I don’t care.” She took his face into her hands. “Whatever secrets you have, I don’t care, nothing can change this.”

“I know.” Their faces were almost touching. His tone was filled with a reverent admiration, like watching lightning touch the ocean and light up the waves. “Nothing can stop the great Kuki Shinobu.”

“So just let me in,” she whispered, even though she didn’t know why. 

“I love you too.” That was as much of an answer as Shinobu needed to lean in for the kiss.

There would be time for discussions, for dark secrets, for a history to be unearthed. But for now, there was this, the electricity and the course of the wind. All else could wait.

Do you have any shamisen artist recs?

DO I!? (Yes, I do!)

You can check out my three Spotify playlists here, which include one that focuses on the traditional tsugaru shamisen repertoire and similar more traditional-sounding music that's solely shamisen or with minimal other instruments, one that includes more modern music (the drum&bass stuff and lots of other genres) and songs that feature shamisen alongside other instruments, and the Ultimate one that's everything from the other two combined.

Some of my favorite artists (links will be to Youtube as an alternative to the Spotify links in the above post) include:

Yoshida Brothers--Very prolific artists who do both traditional and modern music. Their stuff sounds so rich and harmonic with the two of them sometimes playing in unison and sometimes weaving around each other. There's really something for everybody in their discography.

KiKi--Another duo, these ladies have one album out that's on Spotify but their Youtube channel is full of videos of them playing outdoors in various locations in Japan. Their album Loop Loop Loop is really fun, every song having a different vibe to it but all of them spunky.

Exyz and SENZO--My favorites for drum&bass/dubstep shamisen! They have a lot of collabs together; that's why I list them together for this. Their stuff is NICE if you like these genres of music--the shamisen being a very percussive string instrument, it's perfect for this kind of thing.

Shinobu Kawashima--This gal does it all--traditional music AND modern pop and electronic and rock. I have had "Pandatonic" as my top On Repeat song on Spotify for like. Months. She even sings on lots of her tracks, although I haven't included those in my playlists because those are meant to be all-instrumental.

Hiromitsu Agatsuma--Another very prolific artist who has albums crossing genres. His album Tsugaru is at the traditional end, while NuTRAD and Soufuu have all kinds of music. And that's just three of his many releases! (Seriously there is SO MUCH of him on my playlist and I've just added more today. He's amazing.)

Mitsugu Oyama--Soooooo so much traditional shamisen music!! His albums feature tunes with vocals and without and the thing is there are thirteen of them.

Momokusa Iwata--He collabs with Exyz and SENZO a lot but also has his own solo album Shamisen Tokyo that is full of bangers.

Monsters of Shamisen--This trio has everything from traditional tsugaru shamisen to takes on "Greensleeves" and "Scarborough Faire."

Aun J-Classic Orchestra--I recommend this group although not all of its songs really showcase shamisen as the feature instrument, because oh the songs that do? Are so so good. (Really all of their music is good but this is a shamisen recommendation list, is what I mean.) "Blue," "ZANGETSU," and "PlaybackII" are among my favorites on my playlists, period.

These are my favorites that I've discovered so far in my quest to make the ultimate shamisen playlist. XD Thanks so much for asking me!!

[makowo]

May I ask......... Who in DR Gaiden is paired off to whom. Did they straightwash aoi. TAKA???

It's hard to go through them all, but I'll try my best to put together a horrifically comprehensive list. This will include their fankids as well, to save us all some time. TL;DR, yes they straightwashed aoi, taka gets no relationship at all, and there are some reaches made for ships. If you're interested in all the weird pairings though, here's a list + some info on each.

There is, obviously, Kirigiri Kyoko/Naegi Makoto.

Their kids include, in what I believe is eldest to youngest: Kiki Naegi, Mokubo Naegi, Koto Naegi, and Kiri Naegi. Kiki is given the most prominent role in the whole series, and has been the protagonist for definitely over 100+ stories, though I don't know the exact time she became the focus nor the exact number of stories she's been the focus of, because I care about my mental health. Mokubo is the second eldest, and is autistic. I mistook him for being the youngest out of the four at one point, so I think that is all I need to say about how his autism is handled. Koto and Kiri are twins, a boy and girl respectively, and both are named after nicknames that were often used for Makoto and Kyoko earlier in the series. Not much to say, the younger siblings don't appear often enough to have anything of note happen to them. Kiki, despite having a prominent role, is also completely uninteresting. You'd think with how much shit she gets into, wanting to follow in her mother's footsteps as a detective, getting to go to HPA just because she's the daughter of the headmaster and vice-headmistress, getting kidnapped at one point, and even going back in time, that she'd be more interesting. But no.

Hey, you thought Byakuya would be paired off with Toko, right? You thought this, yes? Assumed? Fuck you. Asahina Aoi/Togami Byakuya. I thought she was paired off with Hagakure tbh, that's the usual cop-out you'd expect of these sorts of things. But I misremembered I suppose, because imagine my fucking horror when I went to search for them just now and it turns out that it ain't Togafuka that ends up happening here. I'm hard pressed to say if this is better or worse than the alternative. Their children are Yuta Togami and Shinobu Togami, named after their dead brother and sister respectively. No one gives a shit about them. Expect me not to elaborate much on the kids from now on, because who give a shit. Just remember they're here, being the little cardboard cutouts they are.

And what worse to do in this scenario than to do Fukawa Toko/Hagakure Yasuhiro? They pop up about as frequently as Byakuya and Aoi, with chunks of screentime interspersed throughout the series that wanes as Kiki's status as the protagonist settles, and the author doesn't really know what to do with them other than have them be set dressing once a blue moon. Their child is Hagakure Kawako.

Coming back around to the Naegis, without Toko to claim Komaru as her swag wife, we get. Hinata Hajime/Naegi Komaru. Don't have much to say about this one, they just really don't have any chemistry. The author does have the gall to tag some of the works featuring them as Hinaegi though. They lack any children that I can see. Yet.

Leading into the SDR2 survivors, we have Komaeda Nagito/Tsumiki Mikan. I believe at one point it was stated that they were having a child, but I honestly don't know if that child ever appears. They have a total of like, four appearances in the series as a pairing. They don't matter.

We don't have anything of particular note other than them out of the rest of the SDR2 cast, so we move on to V3 characters, which are handled interestingly. See, it appears the author decided to split them up, so some of them are aged up to adults working at HPA or elsewhere, while others are still students, and yet more are initially introduced as students before graduating from the school early on. I'll clarify which is which as I list these next few.

First, Saihara Shuichi/Kiki Naegi. Shuichi and Kaede actually did date previously, but Kaede was like. Idk, dissatisfied with how subservient Shuichi was so they're exes. Shuichi is fucking insane for Kiki though, so much so that the author like. Did a fake Saimatsu week where actually they were exes the entire time, and Shuichi still dated Kiki. While advertising the fic as Saimatsu. People pointed this out, they glossed over these complaints in responses. They're both in university in the current state of canon, so no kids or anything. Yet.

Next, Gokuhara Gonta/Tojo Kirumi. Nothing of note, don't wanna read the fics they're in. They're probably graduated from HPA at this point.

Oma Kokichi/Yumeno Himiko, and interestingly enough, they have an open, outright stated polygamous relationship that also consists of Chabashira Tenko/Yumeno Himiko. It's honestly very interesting for this to come up in an endless field of cishet, nuclear family pairings, but it feels pretty forced. Right from the get-go of it being introduced, in fact. It's dropped on us in a fic where Korekiyo trying to murder Kiki is the spotlight, and is glossed over afterward until a reunion fic where they have dinner with the Naegi family, where it's revealed that Kokichi is a cop. Of all the bitches, it's Kokichi that becomes a narc, for no reason shown other than it just being how things went after he graduated, I guess. But yeah they don't matter either.

There's also Iruma Miu/Kazuichi Soda, which is like. Just kinda lame, tbh. Miu works at HPA I think. K1-B0 is their son that Miu made, and then they had a flesh and blood daughter, Biusagi Iruma, at some point offscreen. It's just a kinda weird pairing, they don't do much except launch the weird time travel fic.

Then. Oh Boy. Harukawa Maki/Momota Kaito. Unsurprising, BUT they get this whole arc about Kaito dying and Maki being super upset about that. It's not very normal tbh, Kaito wants to go to space before he dies so Sonia and Gundham, using presumably the funds that should be used for their country that they are the rulers of, make a rocket and send him to space. He dies in space. Everyone is sad, and then Maki finds out like right before the funeral that she's apparently carrying his kid. She names the kid Haruki. Trust me, it's really Sad.

And that's basically it for notable stuff, I think. Gonna quickly mention the other ships in the series, ones that aren't really one-offs but don't have anything special going for them; Kuwata Leon/Maizono Sayaka, Sonia Nevermind/Tanaka Gundham, Amami Rantaro/Shirogane Tsumugi, Ultimate Imposter/Mioda Ibuki, and Saionji Hiyoko/Koizumi Mahiru.

A note on that last one; even if I somehow did like that ship (I don't, I'm a particular fan of the theory that hiyoko is literally just some kid that has so so so many problems going on), you'd be hard pressed to find any fics in the series that involve them to a prevalent degree. From what I can tell, they each individually get one or two lines, and none in reference to any actual relationship between them that could be romantic to any degree. It's straight up lying, again.

That's everything I want to talk about though. Assume that anyone I did not mention here simply aren't paired off with anyone, or appeared like one time and then never again so I didn't find them.

I lost 50/50 from Keqing when I was trying to pull for Cyno... 👁️👁️ Gurl you should have seen my reaction!! 😭😭😭

Funny thing... Back when Lisa was my only Electro user, I wanted another electro user so I want Keqing or Kiki Shinobu. ( She's my first 6C character,, she won't leave me alone while I was pulling for Cyno 😭 but it's okay love her 😚)

Gosh it was my last 1 wish pull and I saw the yellow star!! ... Then I got Keqing. 👁️👁️

I'm sad now. I'll just save for Scaramouche (My love ❤️) and get Cyno on his next rerun. 🙃

shinobu is your first c6?? i dont even have her 😖 and i pulled a lot on her banner. I get how you feel tho, Keqing was my only electro aside from Lisa and Fischl for the longest time!! (i used to not use bow users, so fischl was on the backburner for a while)

I was hoping to get Yae Miko, but I guess ill stick with fischl being my strongest electro for the mean time 😅

THE ANGST WHEN YOU GET THE LAST PULL IS THE 4-5 STAR but it's not the one you were hoping for–

【あらすじ】

世界に向けて挑戦を続ける若手映画監督・亀山睦木が、日本映画の未来を模索した実録ドキュメンタリー。

亀山監督は自身の監督作「12ヶ月のカイ」を110以上もの海外の映画祭に応募し、現地の声を聞くためアメリカからヨーロッパまで足を運んだ。その道のりを追い、キャストやスタッフの思いを込めた作品を1人でも多くの観客に観てもらうべく奮闘する亀山監督の姿を映し出す。

さらに亀山監督は、日本を代表する俳優・寺島しのぶ、ハリウッド作品も手がける清水崇監督や北村龍平監督ら映画関係者にインタビューを敢行。世界で活躍する日本人の経験や、若手監督・俳優のリアルな苦悩が本人たちの言葉で語られる。 ーー 【STORY】 This is a true-life documentary by Mutsuki Kameyama, a young film director who continues to challenge the world, in search of the future of the Japanese film industry.

Kameyama submitted their film "12 Months of KAI" to over 110 overseas film festivals, and traveled from the U.S. to Europe to hear the voices of local audiences. The film follows Kameyama's journey and their struggle to get as many viewers as possible to see their film, which is filled with the thoughts and feelings of the cast and crew.

They also interviewed leading Japanese actor Shinobu Terajima, as well as directors Takashi Shimizu and Ryuhei Kitamura, who have also worked on Hollywood productions, and others involved in the film industry. In their own words, they speak of the experiences of Japanese filmmakers working around the world and the real-life struggles of young directors and actors.
