Welcome to the 20th episode of Anime One At A Time!

The show where I take a pause to appreciate and discuss series one at a time. I promised for this episode a seasonal but the powers of nature didn't have that in store for me. The calling of Shinkai's newest film had to be met and my anticipation could not handle the wait. Had to discuss this and what better chance to on the 20th episode for the podcast! Suzume is many things with old Shinkai here and a new Shinkai emerges with fresh ideas. Now I have split this episode into two parts first half spoiler free and the second half spoilers which come in at 39:30. If you listen to the whole thing well good on you spoilers or not haha.
