suggest watching another group if the translations were that bad.

Thank you for the info!

I will look into the possibility of a different sub.

It just snowed today, so it's time to rewatch one of the best anime titles ever, for the 5th time(or 6th? I forgot). When i watched Mushi-Shi the first time, it was also winter. Somehow, Im connecting animes with the season, I watched them the first time. Am I the only one?...

I visited one of bigger national parks near Tokyo, visited Matsumoto, a small city smack in the middle of the Japanese Alps, and visited the Shirakawa village, famed for its distinctive gassho-zukuri thatched-roof houses — I went to these places and a few more because I was inspired by Mushishi. I wanted particularly to be up in a rural mountain area (or an approximation of it), and I wasn't disappointed.

I don't necessarily associate anime with actual seasons (because there is no spring, summer, autumn or winter in tropical Singapore), but I do very much associate some anime with a mood and the places I wanted to visit. Is that close enough?

In any case, I expect you'll be watching Ep3, Tender Horns. Ep23, The Sound of Rust, also had a strong winter theme, as did Ep15, Pretense of Spring.

Interesting. I have been in the Japanese alps, Matsumoto and Shirakawa-go by myself this summer. But then, i was more connected to other animes, which are taking place in these areas.
