===Journal===
In 2012 or '13 I was pleased to hear that Hayao Miyazaki was making a new animated Studio Ghibli film, after I'd just marathoned all of his previous ones and found them much to my tastes.
In May 2014 I noticed that it was playing at our cinemas in Japanese with subtitles and nearly went to watch it one Sunday afternoon after my Japanese lesson but thought I'd just wait until I could watch it at home rather than go to the trouble and expense of going to the cinema. The next day, however, I was in Sheffield with nothing to do and saw that it was playing at Showroom so I watched it.
I found it rather boring, unfortunately. It was pretty, and I am beginning to appreciate Miyazaki's love of planes and trains and '40s technology, but the story was just not that interesting or well portrayed, I didn't think.
