honestly i mostly rewatch old animes nowadays like.
Cowboy Bebop, Inuyasha, Trigun [the og not the 3d one albeit the 3d is also nice], and the newest on the list Katanagari.
for whatever reason this one song is stuck in my head for a week now, I don't even like this genre of music but when my mind is blank I just hear it in my head.
I just think start with a Japanese Shrine, their Torii gates as either the centerpiece of the village, or build it on the side of the village and a pagoda in the middle.
Also it would be nice if we got screenshot updates every once in a while since at least I'm invested.
