#between memories

[the-ephemeral-ethereal]

Between the memory of a dream and the memory of something real there is no great difference.

Anime of the day: Yasuke

Released: 2021

This is the fictional story of the first African samurai. After the warring years are over Yasuke retires to a quiet life. Until one day he is asked to protect a young girl named Saki. Initially he rejects the offer, but he is left with no choice after the village he was living in starts getting attacked by strange monster people. Saki secretly holds a great power that many want. It is now Yasuke’s job to find her refuge.

Ok I tried really hard to come up with something for this anime. I was really agitated that this wasn’t a non-fiction story. Because Yasuke was a real person. And to me his story is just so much more interesting. However, the opening is pretty fire. It’s ​​"Black Gold" by Flying Lotus. The ending is "Between Memories" also by Flying Lotus.

L — “기억과 기억 사이” | “Memory” English lyrics

Title’s literal translation: “Between Memories"

Oo yeah. Oo yeah.

If you look at the feelings I have quietly treasured, Precious days endlessly unfold. Watching silently, I gather my scattered breath And blow warmth into the cold air.

I miss so many things. I close my eyes and just a little, just a little more...

As if traveling Between memories, Between seasons, One by one I recall Forgotten moments. Between yesterday and today, With tomorrow still hidden, I close my eyes for a moment.

At some point, the fallen leaves That crunched under my feet Become white snow. When my feet get wet, I embrace the wishes And dreams that piled up And place you in the wide white landscape.

I’m grateful for so many things. I stand still and just a little, just a little more, Whoa yeah.

As if traveling Between memories, Between seasons, One by one I recall Forgotten moments. Between yesterday and today, With tomorrow still hidden, I close my eyes for a moment.

Like catching my breath, I lean on fond memories. When I breathe out the tired feelings,

They becomes clearer— Between memories, Between seasons, So that the remaining moments Don’t become fuzzy. Between yesterday and today, With tomorrow still hidden, I close my eyes for a moment.

Oo yeah. Oo yeah. Oo yeah. Oo yeah.
