I love anime and manga as much as I love Showa era Japanese cinema (Ozu, Mizoguchi, Kurosawa, etc… films). But I will never read light novels, I’d rather go with short stories of Japanese literature (Souseki, Akutagawa, etc…). One thing I really like about anime is that even if you are super tired, you can still easily get one hour of listening to Japanese dialogues without falling asleep. I have no regrets to every penny I pay Netflix, Amazon, Crunchyroll and Funamination. Recently, the dialogue in Sangatsu no Lion (Netflix) is music to my ears.
