And Here’s the Cookie (take)
“Catch the Miyazaki Train Before it Leaves the Station!”
Cancel that order from “Naruto Ramen” because the Kotatsu Japanese Animation Festival, happening this October, is about to serve you the best “anime-n” broth you’ve ever slurped. With a line-up as eye-poppingly tasty as a bowl of miso, featuring 9 films from fresh-off-the-stove hits to some well-aged classics, including an all-time favourite by the legendary Hayao Miyazaki, this event could be “ramen-ed” (hehe) as the Michelin 3-star of animation fests. So, dust off that old kimono, get comfy under the Kotatsu blanket, and prepare for an immersive anime feast – just be sure not to spill any soy-sauce on your tickets!
