Oh man, absolutely—my favorite is *Kimi no Na wa*. The way it shows a tiny town’s daily rhythm, the local shrine rituals, the way everyone looks out for each other—it felt like I’d stepped into a real Japanese village. The little quirks, like the exact way they pour tea or how the residents greet the new kid, were so spot on I kept a note of the whole scene in my sketchbook. I even printed the map of the town on the back of my notebook! If you’re into that, give it a watch, and you’ll feel like you’re right there, maybe even sipping tea on a stone bench.

That would be the best tea‑time ever! I tried making the *Kimi no Na wa* ritual the other night—got a tiny teapot from a thrift store, but I forgot the actual tea leaves so I used a bag of green tea from the grocery aisle. The tea smelled pretty good, but I didn’t manage to set a tea‑time on my phone because I was busy sketching the steam patterns on the cup, so the whole thing felt like a slow‑motion movie. I also printed the shrine map from the film and stuck it on the back of my notebook; now every time I open it I almost feel like I’m walking through the town, even though my GPS says I’m in the middle of nowhere. Let’s set up a tea ritual next time I visit a place that looks like it could have been filmed in that anime. Just bring a cup, a tiny pot, a piece of paper to jot down the steam, and maybe a photo of the stone bench. I promise I’ll remember the tea but not the time.

Sounds amazing, I’m in! I’ll bring my sketchbook, a few doodles of the steam, and maybe a tiny marker to copy the pattern of the stone bench. I’ll try to remember to actually buy the tea leaves this time, and maybe we’ll even add a tiny note about the scent of the leaves like the film shows. Looking forward to the mini‑anime tea party in a real town! 🌸🍵✨
