This is the 3rd National Day week I spent in Shanghai, except two days in Hangzhou, my otaku lifestyle hasn’t changed much. I watched two anime films by Makoto Shinkai: 5 Centimeters Per Second, Voices of a Distant Star.

1080P version of 5 Centimeters Per Second is amazingly awesome, I mean the detailed graphic, almost every single frame can be captured and set as desktop wallpaper. That’s the quality of commercial studio production.

Something is quite memorable in Voices of a Distant Star, if one day your girl friend is traveling to a distant star, and all messages sent from her would take years to deliver, because a distant star means a star in light years far away. Then?

You two are connected, because you’re keeping missing each other, so no matter how many light years away, you’re connected.

Actually I wish I could have one connection like that. Such connection is not meant for telling stories to others, but just a connection that will be kept in hearts for many many many years.
