I'm back from Tokyo with a boatload of Yuri On Ice merchandise and a weird flu-like thing. Which means it's a perfect time to bask in some chill nostalgia and continue my mini-tour of the Ghibli Mumblecore years, talking about Isao Takahata's Only Yesterday (1991) with David Sims of The Atlantic and the Blank Check pod...

We have a very rambly discussion that goes from foggy childhood memories of a dub of Unico, to Tonya vs. Nancy, to homosexuality in Japanese fiction.
