Just watched the movie ‘Departures’ about the main character becoming a nakanshi. Anyone seen it? It was excellent!!!

You may also want to check out jisho.org’s ‘kanji by radicals’ feature, useful for when you see a kanji that’s not in convenient browser form. Let’s say you see 道 and want to know what it is. You can push the buttons for the L-shaped side bit, the ‘ ‘ on the top, and by that point it’s narrowed down the list enough that you can easily pick the kanji out to see its dictionary entry. The bold kanji on the list are the common jouyou kanji, so it’s best to look at them first. Hope it helps :)

I prefer the drama “Nankyoku Tairiku”: http://wiki.d-addicts.com/Nankyoku_Tairiku
Funny enough that Sakai Masato plays in both, the drama and the movie ^-^

The only Japanese food movie I’ve seen so far is ‘Udon’. It was lovely. Made me hungry, though. I’d love to watch this.
