Town Without Sea 2020
Really good debut by Ikeda and a really lovely performance by Kura Yuki, he has a very expressive face and makes the character very relatable. Not that he wouldn't be relatable to me anyway, tbh.
There are many kinds of happiness in the world, you just have to find your own, maybe it's closer than you think, maybe it's the journey, maybe you forgot what it was for a while and you are now rediscovering it, maybe it's a happiness you think you want or maybe it's simply the beauty of a blue bird.

Show some sympathy, give it a try, turn off the TV, open your heart.

Forgotten 2017
It's like someone had an idea and then they had another 20 ideas and they thought, let's just throw them all together and it may work. Well, it doesn't but i was curious to see just how complicated this could get which i guess is a win? Sort of, lol.
I get that it's all been done before but just trying to surprise and engage the viewer by adding more and more twists is rarely successful.
