Godzilla is going to the US again!!

Have you ever watched the movie, Godzilla, about a huge monster which looks like a T-rex running through a US city? If yes, I guess it would be the Hollywood film made in 1998. Some Japanese who love the original Japanese version of Godzilla produced by a Japanese filmmaker have condemned it for beeing a dinosaur movie, not a real Godzilla movie.

This summer, a new Japanese-style Godzilla film, Shin-Godzilla, came to movie theaters in Japan, and it has been very successful. I cannot tell you the details of the story here because it will premieres premiere in the US next week. But I can say that it is not just a monster movie, but it descripts well how the Japanese government responds to a serious situation. It shows that people stop thinking about the matter in a proper way when they face such an unexpected, tragic and dangerous event. It is funny but also sad for Japanese people to see our prime minister hesitates in decision-making. In the end, the US or and other big countries cut into the decision-making system in Japan and insist that an atomic bomb must be used to kill Godzilla. Japanese moviegoers may think that the nuclear bomb could be dropped in Japan again!! So that is why I see Shin-Godzilla movies as a kind of Japanese political stories story.

If you have a chance to watch the Shin-Godzilla, please tell me your opinions.

When you give a present

"You'll love it" my friend from England said and gave me a nice present. said my friend from England as she gave me a nice present. (this is not a "correction", i just shuffled things a bit to make it read smoother) 

What she said was right, I loved it.
"This is very delicious so I want you to try it." she said. She was right, it was very good.
On another day, my one of my Japanese friends gave some sweets like cakes and said, "I don't know if you like it these or not but, anyway, try it." " It might not be delicious for you".

That Japanese words like this these are often heard when I'm given a present. Then I have to be very careful not to laugh and I try not to say "If it's not delicious, why are you giving it to me?"

These expressions perfectly show how different the two cultures are.  The English one sounds positive. On the other hand, Japanese words sound very negative. However, Japanese people use these words to express their modesty, not being in a negative way.
Japanese people always consider how the other people feel first and they don't mention about their thoughts.
This is a part of Japanese thinking.

Thank you for reading.

Writing a diary

Hello,
I am originally from Japan but currently live in southern Spain. I decided to join italki because I want to improve my English skills. I have been studying English for a while but I still struggle to write a good essay.

Actually I just joined italki about a month ago and haven't been really active but I met a really nice Aussie lady there here and we decided to exchange our notebooks every week.

Well... today I am going to write about my  trip to Granada last weekend.
As I live in a small town middle of nowhere in Spain, it is very difficult for me to travel around the country, but last weekend I got a chance to take my dog to Granada, which I've been wanting to do for a while.

I took her to the park just outside of the city near the science museum. She was so excited and ran around on the grass for over an hour! It was so nice to see her enjoying herself.

I hope we can have another trip there soon.
