It's a genre of anime I'd call "soothing." Definitely brings back memories of buying my CT90 as a teenager. First episode is up. Enjoy!

That's great zbillster, I must show it to my daughter. She did Japanese (as a language) at school and passed the * Leaving Cert in Japanese a couple of years ago. She was one of only eight in Ireland who took Japanese as a subject.
She is now in her second year at University in Dublin and has taken on Japanese as an extra elective. She gets litttle $50 commissions from time to time for some online Anime publishers, she draws a face with 15 expressions. It's just a hobby for her really but she has never done animation work.
*Leaving Cert - final exams leaving school at 18
Funimation, et al., actually employs a lot of translators for their shows. Not only Japanese to English, but to German, French, Russia, Spanish, Portuguese ... I could go on. I'm trying to pick up a little as I go, and hope to revisit Japan once COVID and Olympics madness is over.
