Rikon Shiyou Yo (2023)
Cute and Cozy.
If you are into cute and cozy anime, then this is kinda like that, but live action. The acting is over the top, but in a good way (just like anime).
The main female character, Yui, is quirky and her overly dramatic lines are quite humorous (Mi-ma-taaaa!) She is quite lovable and I found myself really wanting her to find happiness.
Taishi, Yui's politician husband has so many ::face palm:: moments... he has a good heart but doesn't always make the best choices. I would look forward to seeing his character develop in a season 2 (if there is a second one planned?)
All the other characters, Saotome, Taishi's mother, Yui's mother and so many others were all great and I hope to see more of them.
Overall, It's a comedic drama that I was glad to see. America media doesn't seem to want to invest in good old fashioned rom coms anymore, only super hero movies... so it's refreshing that Netflix is picking up Japanese series like these to fill that void.
I hope there is a season 2!
Star Wars: Episode IX - The Rise of Skywalker (2019)
Loved it!
People just like to complain about everything these days, no one is happy or satisfied about anything.
This movie was fantastic, well done Disney. You did a great service with this Star Wars trilogy. Wish I could have been there fighting with Rey and the gang!
Walked away smiling and with hope for the universe :)
Fruits Basket (2019)
Must see
Funny, clever, heartwarming, adorable, fantastic animation, diverse characters and wonderful plot. Everything I could want from an anime. I hope this one sticks around for a long time.
Santa Clarita Diet (2017)
10 stars
Writing comedy has got to be super hard, but this show does it right, it is unbelievably funny... by episode 3 I was completely hooked on the story and the characters. ALL the characters are fantastic. Drew Barrymore and Timothy Olyphant have excellent chemistry and are really relatable and their everyday life portrayal is hilarious. The young actors that play Abby and Eric are absolutely exceptional and crack me up constantly. Even the supporting characters are all so good. The story is just sooooo good, I can't wait to see Season 4, please let there be a season 4.
I really hope this show goes on for years to come, it's Parks and Rec and Office quality good.
