I am 30 years old soon. An age where maturity should have gone deeper. Hmmm. But I can always be a child whenever i want to. I can always play those childish games or can act like one sometimes. LOL :D
Animes has been one great past time for me aside from reading books, watching DVD movies and suring the net. In this way, I still can feel that life need not be bound for boredom.
During this era where competitions on soap operas, sitcoms and animes arouse, there are things that i need to consider why it should be a worthy watch. The theme, the characters and the wide array of lesson that we can learn. Of course we need to learn something from what we are watching. Its not just about the crave for your selfish emotional needs or spirtual guidance but as a whole.
May it be a real person acting or a pen-drawn or computerized 3D animation as long as it fits this criteria I have, it will be a good watch.
Most animes though are far more on to strength fighting or bloody scenes. Some are lighter but still brutal to a child's imagination. But not Yakitate Japan! It's more on idealism, friendship, family, food fight and kinship for some other characters.
A worthy watch for me.
With such theme as bread-making and realizing a dream, I can almost fit myself to Azuma Kazuma who plays the innocent town boy who persuaded the world with his best craftmanship ever known to the bread world. All his creations were based on the real events he have encountered as he grew up with his sister and his grandparents.
To think, he has no formal education on the field that he is in to, but as the story goes, bearing the Solar Hands and the ability to adapt his baking with real experiences, Azuma succeeded in his every endeavour until he dominated the baking world by winning the 2nd Monaco CUp.
Azuma together with Kawachi, Suwabara, Tsukino, Kanmuri and the Manager comprises an ideal team that everybody should see. There might ahve been some scenes that are brutal than hilarious but I guess Japanese animes were really made that way for the main reason to enjoy while watching it.
Yakitate Japan is one of my favorite animes that has always bring the child in me. Putting myself sometimes in Azuma Kazuma's shoes allows me to think that everything can be possible if you pursue and goes along with it.
I never dreamt though of becoming a bread-maker but when I watch this anime, I started to seethe beauty in baking. The fun of kneading dough and the surprises of making an out of this world delicous bread that everybody can relate to. But i am not yet a bread-maker and I am hoping to become soon.
Watching this anime is killing the boredom at times when i dont know what to do. Better be entertained with this rather sitting and watching the blankness of the horizon. Its nothing but a losser's doing.
YAKITATE JAPAN!!!!!
