[2016.12] Hashimoto Ai's Culture Diary
Books I have read, Movies and Plays I have seen, Music I have heard.
This is a record of 3-months worth of culture digest.
The photo is taken in London while taking a short break over work. I was quite busy but the things I saw during my fleeting break were wonderful… Because this is my first serialization, I made a scope, I'll be starting with things from August, yeah.
[ August 07 : Book 1 ] Tetsuko-san no Mi ni Naru Kotoba : Sonogo no Totto-chan (Kuroyanagi Tetsuko )
The drama Totto TV is a masterpiece and I loved it, so I try to catch up with Tetsuko-san's publication from one end. It feels like a digest version of one's overwhelming life, this holds the elementary level Tetsuko-san, it is that kind of book. Kuroyanagi Tetsuko established this sort of genre on her own which transcends to a God-like feeling. A girl who haven't changed with her usual taste of cute clothes. Such Tetsuko-san's true identity is a simple-minded soul with the thinking of "It's fun to not doubt a person". She is a person who lived as a child and was protected by God.
[ August 15 : Book 2 ] Nagai Iiwake / Long Exucse ( Nishikawa Miwa )
I love Nishikawa-san's book, but even though I bought it a long time ago, I have always been looking for a good time to read it.
I picked this book up at that moment and became the most effective medicine to the me right now. I cried to death at TSUTAYA's Café. I thought the guy was closer to being a devil than a human. Finally he is victimized from his habit of affirming himself, and became someone who could cry over another's failure. I was truly relieved. As an observer, the wife's voice seems to overlap with mine and resonates in my head. It was said that she could only love when she was forgiven for loving.
[ September XX : Music 3 ] Kirei / Pretty ( Joobachi / Queen Bee )
In the middle of the stageplay practice, it was the album that really helped me out. Sing, dance, vent out, I received a spare time. I would always listen to 「Kaminoke」 and 「Shihatsu」 in particular and I'm not tired of it yet. Not getting tired of it is not just my feelings at that time but I thought the song was me, at least at this age. The feeling of pain and bitterness drifts from Ava-chan's singing amidst the femininity and masculinity. For me this is the most transcendental and I love it.
[ October 03 : Movie 4 ] Kimi no Na Wa. ( Shinkai Makoto )
When I saw the trailer I thought I absolutely wanted to see this, it finally came true. This one, everyone's going to be drifted into a sacred place. I don't care about the details, but it was wonderful. There is an open hole in my chest all these times, it is painful as it seems like it's going to break the moment I loosen up. The painful sensation was amazing. It's simply communicating through the mind, but it's because it's like this that it's this painful. The sound when the comet dropped was wonderful. The fusion sound of the universe, the earth, the fantasy, and the reality. God was reflected. Have I seen a film where God was reflected? For the first time, I thought the night view of the city on my way back after watching was beautiful.
[ October 09: Theater 5 ] Yoru Tsubo ( Night Fountain ) / Gekidan Karagumi
This has been a tent performance by Gekidan Karagumi that I have been wanting to attend. Jimbocho's unpopular and quiet road along with its Red Tent. To be invited in a dream I had as a child, I entered while my heart pounded. I was at loss. Kara Jyurou-san's spinning words turned into a poetry as it is, as if I could hear a song. The world of perfection. It was astonishng and seemed like a magical slumber. Puppets, Water, and Songs. It really seemed like me. Although, It was also like that when I saw 「Biniru no Shiro ("The Vinyl Castle")」. This time there was a similar dream with the sound of the light switching which could be heard throughout the narrow and analog space. That's why it was amazing.
