Simone @monalunasimone.bsky.social · 02/10/2026Absolutely loved this. The few changes made sense from a narrative standpoint. Pretty sure it was shot on film, it looked beautiful, emphasising the importance of light and Fuyuko’s perception of it. Found the scenes between Fuyuko and Hijiri the strongest, esp the emotional climax near the end. 000
