“cooking’s a mirror that reflects your mind.”

this made me want to cook more : P

i would sell my kidneys to live like ichiko.
i adore how she is living alone peacefully and quietly. how she spends her day is truly comforting—planting vegetables, harvesting, spending time with her neighbors, and cooking her childhood dishes.

something that i genuinely relate to her about is that we love to escape. running away. mainly because we can’t face our problems. we’re not yet ready to face it : )

This feels less like a movie and more like borrowing someone else’s life for two hours. It’s literally a Stardew Valley run in film form. The flashbacks are perfect. Never overexplained, they just happen like memories usually do. It’s basically a super cinematic cooking vlog, but somehow more visually intentional than anything Marvel’s put out since Infinity War. Nothing dramatic really happens. Which is the point.
