Grave of the Fireflies

I watched the Grave of the Fireflies this past Thursday, and while I can say it was extremely good it was also incredibly sad. I didn't expect myself to cry so much but I just did. This experience has inspired me to watch more movies in Japanese. Overall, I couldn't recommend this movie more.

Japan-related Video

While searching, I found and watched a YouTube video of a woman going to Kamakura, Japan. Throughout the video, the woman communicates what she was seeing and doing all in Japanese. This video made me realize how much more I need to learn and practice regarding Japanese, but also the progress I have made so far:) I was able to understand certain words and also read what was shown on the screen. I enjoyed learning about Kamakura and the wonderful place it seems to be. Hope I can visit one day!

After watching a couple videos from the YouTube channel,  Akane-JapaneseClass , I decided to watch their video on ordering coffee in Japanese.                                                     Conversation for ordering coffee in Japanese   Watching their videos has given me the chance to learn real life conversations and situations in Japanese.

I definitely plan to continue watching and learning from these videos of life in Japan.
