I do this for a few things, movies in particular. For me most recently, I'm planning on watching Bo Burnham's Inside this weekend, for the first time since I watched it shortly post-release. I wasn't really intending to wait *checks watch* nearly 3 years on that one, but I definitely felt it needed some space before a rewatch.
Anyone else treat certain pieces of media similarly?
Don't get me wrong I am not a hater whatsoever, but I started watching them with my girlfriend recently and I'm not feeling it completely, I only watched Spirited Away before and I have the same feeling.
We have watched so far (in this order):
The Boy and The Heron
Princess Mononoke (this one was my favorite)
How's Castle
My Neighbor Totoro
The art design is top notch I can agree with that.
