Guillermo del Toro, Rinko Kikuchi and Mana Ashida from Pacific Rim visits the Tokyo Gundam Base by kiyosu jo

Guillermo del Toro treating Rinko Kikuchi and Mana Ashida ice cream.

Guillermo del Toro shows his sketchbook where he drew the inspiration for the character of Mako Mori.

Guillermo del Toro explains the Jaeger are heavily influenced by Gundam, such as Cherno Alpha.

Guillermo del Toro's reaction to seeing the Gundam is priceless that they joke about him forgetting Rinko Kikuchi and Mana Ashida.

I really love seeing everyone's reactions being so happy like their inner child finally reveal itself, not caring about what others say.

Thank you Japan, Gundam, Guillermo del Toro, Pacific Rim, for making our childhood and adulthood an awesome one!

When two boys - Umi and Sora, who were raised in the sea by dugongs - are brought to the aquarium, Ruka feels drawn to them and begins to realise that she has the same sort of supernatural connection to the ocean that they do. Umi and Sora’s special power seems to be connected to strange events that have been occurring more and more frequently, such as the appearance of sea creatures far from their home territory and the disappearance of aquarium animals around the world. However, the exact nature of the boys’ power and of the abnormal events is unknown, and Ruka gets drawn into investigating the mystery that surrounds her new friends.

Guillermo del Toro explains why he chose Rinko Kikuchi and Mana Ashida for the role of Mako Mori in Pacific Rim in a Japanese Press Conference by kiyosu jo

Mana Ashida on calling Guillermo del Toro, "Totoro".

Rinko Kikuchi on working with Mana Ashida

Guillermo del Toro made the right decision casting them both for the roles of Mako Mori. They stole the show in every scene they're in.

The wholesome part is Guillermo del Toro said he felt miserable trying to make Mana Ashida cry for that flashback scene.

And Mana Ashida said, after every scene, Guillermo del Toro would tousle her hair and praising her, making her feel happy.

Dear Guillermo del Toro, is it too early too ask for a Christmas present of a prequel film about Mako Mori from childhood to adulthood?

I went a little off my usual path last night to take in a movie I got curious about while following one of my favorite subbers on Twitter -- BL Metamorphosis, or The Edge of Metamorphosis. This won’t be the longest review as the movie was pretty straightforward, but it was WHOLESOME and LOVELY, and if you like stories with older folks making friends with younger folks, this is right up your alley!

And I’m a touch of a sucker for these kinds of stories -- I happened to not grow up with grandparents (immigrant life, grandparents were in the home countries, we rarely visited the home countries, etc.), so stories about younger people befriending older folks just really touch my heart and make me feel a tad envious. But anyway --

An older woman, a widow, goes to a bookstore to look for cookbooks. The cookbook section has been redesigned into a BL section (HELL YEAH). She takes a look at an interesting cover, and away she goes. The 17-year-old bookstore employee who helps her becomes curious, and after a couple quick chats, she (the employee -- her name is Urara) stops by the obasan’s (Yuki’s) house to drop off more BL recommendations.

It is a super warm story, in part about Yuki supporting Urara as Urara preps for her college exams and tries to figure out what she wants to do with her life. It ties together a couple of themes -- quiet awakenings on the part of three protagonists (Yuki, Urara, and the manga artist that Yuki and Urara both love); rectifying or preventing regrets from a young age; being a supportive and loving friend, and most importantly for me, recognizing that even if you find a calling in life, that that calling can be difficult, at times not fun, but fulfilling in the end. I loved seeing Urara find her calling, finding what she wants to do with her life (which is to draw manga), giving it her best shot, and while she struggled, realizing that she had fun with it. All while being supported by the excited and invested Yuki.

Like I said, it was lovely to watch something off my usual beaten path, as I contemplate the use of suki in BL (lol). It also has Takahashi Kyohei of Naniwa Danshi, the same idol group that features Michieda Shunsuke, if you’re into that sort of thing. If you want a wholesome break from any heartthrob action that you’re watching, I totally recommend this movie!

@furritsubs​ -- THANK YOU THANK YOU!
