So, this video title came to me during sleep-deprived delirium, and oh boy, turns out I have a lot to talk about. Not only did we attach The Apothecary Diaries to this topic, but it has now become a two-part series.

It's a little unusual for our video to go so in-depth into history and attach so many little tidbits from various topics, but I want to convey to you just how interconnected the shared history of China and Japan is. And I want to give you a proper movie review, too. So, I hope the rambling gives you a good look into the topic. There is still much more to come. I'll see you in our next video.

Accented Cinema - Episode 158 At the end of our Apothecary Diaries video, we brought up the topic of Japanese-made films set in China. And in this two-part series, we are going to dive into this curious phenomenon. Why would one country create stories about another country? The answer lies within the interconnected history between the two nations.
