Watched and liked

• mononoke: the movie trilogy (each movie focuses on different character’s problems, often feelings of resentment/grief. it feels very personal and the animation in general is very artistic/holds many symbolisms, that’s why i like it)

• Sa kaitaas-taasan ngunit—“
• “Kaibigan, Huwag kang magpapasindak.
• Kaibigan, Easy lang sa iyak.”
