summer of Miyazaki #10: Howl’s Moving Castle (2004) – one of our favorites, with all the great characters, magic, & themes you’d want
summer of Miyazaki #9: The Cat Returns (2002) – a stretch since he didn’t write or direct, but a favorite years ago; still really cute & fun
summer of Miyazaki #8: Princess Mononoke (1997) – a classic, but sprawling storylines & an ambiguous ending made it not my favorite tbh

though to be fair we’re going see to Jamaica v El Salvador & Curaçao v Mexico in the Gold Cup in San Antonio, so, you know. I’m easy ?
the prestige of Confederations Cup might be debatable, but Chile vs Germany, in a final? that’s a hell yes in my book. (1PM, FS1)
