広島弁 coming in STRONG
As much as I like Japanese dialects, I was not prepared for this. This is pure unfiltered 広島弁 from start to finish. Turning on subtitles helps but you're still faced with the historical setting with things that no longer exist and lifestyle habits we're not used to. Additionally, there were so many cuts all the time, I was feeling so lost. If you've learnt some Hiroshimaben and want to hear more, I 100% recommend this but otherwise, that movie is very challenging. I'll try again later.
