Quotes

I can only speak like a 6 year old in Japanese but my accent is pretty on point I must say.”

“I think what I love about [Shinkai] films and a lot of Japanese animation films is the heart that he brings to the stories. I just, I love a good cry. I just love feeling all those emotions and to be part of something that can really, I don’t know, just like break people open in a way, hopefully. It feels really cool.”

“I was thinking about that concept of fate and reading about this notion of, like, intuition, and how, sometimes, you feel really drawn to somebody, you know. It’s almost like the universe, because I believe in this kind of stuff, where the universe is like, you need to know this person, like, they’re gonna play a role in your life, your development, and that phrase, “Some people are around for a season a reason or lifetime.”

“I mean, I always think it’s cool to go back somewhere. And I’ve done that before. I had this therapist who I loved, who passed away a few years ago. And I remember one time, I was like, “I wonder what happened to her office?” and I went back, and I opened the door to her office, and it was like, everything was gone. It was under construction. It was just this little room.”

“I used to be a cat person growing up and then I wanted to get a dog to protect myself, so I got a cat dog, which is a Shiba Inu, because he acts like a cat. But he’s cute and he will bite like a dog. I’m both now.”

“I used to watch [My Neighbor] Totoro like every day as a kid. So that’s something I can always revisit. I was thinking about anime films that I love. One of the most impactful movies I saw as a kid was this anime called Grave of the Fireflies. It’s a deep cut. I feel like, I don’t know why, I’m like, everyone needs to see that movie because it’s just so, so moving.”

“I mean, I would love to return to anime. I feel like it’s so fun for me because it feels like part of my culture, right? My mom being Japanese, and just these films being things that I loved as a kid. And so it feels really cool to be able to like, step into that world now.”

Nichole Sakura is a multitalented artist who has become an inspiration for the younger generation. Her hard work and determination needs to be valued and appreciated more.
