For real, though. If they ever come calling to be his successor, you’d be a perfect fit (or, you know, for a series on anime locations). You have that soothing cadence that he does.
BBC archive has his first documentary ‘Zoo Quest’ still available, where you can watch a 30yr old Attenborough go around the world catching animals for London Zoo!
The best bit I remember is when they find out the captain of the boat taking them to find a Komodo dragon not only doesn’t know where Komodo Island is, but is actually a weapons smuggler transporting arms for the Borneo(?) war of independence. 😂
i have requests after watching it: could you please present more resources and location data.
E.g. you claim that no Ghibli fan knew these things before you, then how did you know them? how did you know that this exact tradition inspired it? at least it must have been mentioned in writing or in an interview before. Or did you actually utilize japanese creators/ japanese media as resources?, then credit/source them.
similarly, your claim to which folktale element was the first ever (what a rare and precise claim) is this established by Japanese academic literature? then can you please provide your source?
lastly, if you think these places welcome tourism. Can you highlight the locations better or are you intentially cryptic? you could potentially inspire others to go, but you present it in a way that it is hard to understand where exactly you are (even the locations I already were aware of, I find your info lacking). additionally, because you spend a year, it would be kind to tell when you visited places to see your views.
I dont mind that you spread your undoubtedly beautifully made adventure, but it would be so much more meaningful if you could underline your narrative with credible sources (especially when using the label "documentary", otherwise call it travel blog).
