スラムダンク、再び。
Slam Dunk again!

slam dunk again

 私はスラムダンク(以下、スラダン)原作世代です。 スラダンの映画を見ました。おもしろい。この一言に尽きます。 自分の語彙力のなさが嘆かわしいほどに、他にどんな言葉も浮かびません。 映画を見た次の瞬間、もう一度見たいと思いました。 私の12年のバスケ競技歴の半分が、スラダンに染まっているからでしょうか。

 週末、もう一度映画館に行ってきます。 ちなみに私はミッチー(三井寿)推しです。

Slam Dunk again!

I am part of the generation that grew up with the original TV animation "Slam Dunk" (shortened to "Suradan" from here on).

The other day, I saw the new "Suradan" movie. It was interesting. That is the only word that comes to mind. I am so saddened by my lack of vocabulary that no other word comes to mind. As soon as I finished watching the movie, I wanted to see it again. I wonder why that is.... is it because half of my 12 years of basketball playing was totally steeped in "Suradan"?

I am going to go to the movie theater again this weekend. By the way, I am Michi fan (Hisashi Mitsui).

 After studying abroad in Beijing, I decided to become a Japanese teacher and have enjoyed spending time with many students in Japanese lessons. Currently, I am in charge of intermediate levels and above. In my lessons, my basic goal is to help students improve their vocabulary and syntax to acquire a wider and richer range of expression in Japanese, which will in turn help them refine their conversational skills.

 My aim is to support Intermediate students to progress up to the advanced level, and from there, for those advanced students to progress up to a super advanced level! I look forward to welcoming everyone who likes to learn Japanese in a fun (but reliable) way. Let's enjoy learning together!
