Astro Note

I started watching the anime Astro Note. I like the concept of their homeshare, and that they have breakfast together. Their new chef makes delicious meals for them (although their landlord tried, it’s clear the tenants were not fans of her cooking skills, or lack thereof). I haven’t decided how I feel about this show yet. It’s goofy, the tenants are interesting, but I think I’m still wrapping my head around the space travel aspect. Just finished the first episode and noticed a mysterious character in the background. Hopefully we’ll find out who they are soon!

Ah yes. A chill life. Sounds fantastic!

I hope they’ll tell us who this mysterious person is lurking in the background at the welcome party!

What’s Your Body Trying to Tell You?

I just finished Dr. Ramune Mysterious Disease Specialist, Kai Byoui Ramune, on VRV. Ramune is a doctor, that specializes in supernatural afflictions.

***SPOILERS AHEAD***

Sometimes the illness can be emotions, trapped, and unable to express themselves. Memories that are suppressed. Or behavior that needs to be faced honestly. Using unconventional methods, Dr. Ramune, enables his patients to face their challenges and heal themselves. They are able to make the connection between their condition, and their life choices. And they gain insight and strength, to make healthier choices going forward. Their body is communicating a message, that Dr. Ramune helps them decipher.

I agree with the VRV/Crunchyroll commenter KhakiBlueSocks. This show is a good mix of xxxHolic and Mushishi. I enjoyed both of those series. This show has humor and heart. The positive messages are just as applicable to our daily lives. Well-being is to be healthy physically, spiritually, emotionally, and mentally.

This anime ended with an episode that updated us on Dr. Ramune’s patients, and emphasized all the healing he helped them with, and how his empathic nature is a blessing. This show also touched upon self-care, and how it’s vital that he take care of himself, so he can continue helping others.

I watched on VRV / Crunchyroll. I do recommend this show, I really enjoyed it. It was interesting to think of underlying behaviors, thoughts, and emotions that contributed to the seemingly odd illnesses. But it was most insightful, seeing the patients come to their own conclusion for healing, and how their quality of life improved.
