If you loved Thermae Romae, try Thermae Romae II
Eine Brücke zwischen einem Film, den du schon gesehen hast, und einem, den kaum jemand kennt. Thermae Romae II hat ungefähr 3.4× Stimmen weniger als Thermae Romae — ein tieferer Cut, keine Mainstream-Empfehlung. Das teilen sie, und was der zweite macht, was der erste nicht macht.
Was sie teilen
Both films are directed by Hideki Takeuchi, and they both carry the cozy, playful mood tags, and they sit in Comedy / Science Fiction territory. If that's the register that drew you to Thermae Romae, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.
What Thermae Romae II is
One man’s trip to ancient Rome and modern Japan suggests cultural plumbing is the true universal language. A bath designer jumps centuries to convince Romans that soaking beats stabbings, and also that bidets are nice. Trouble is, the whole city soon resembles the world’s most expensive spa.
