[Mononoke] I really need to rewatch, but I was thinking about the Nue episodes

And I figured out why I have always identified with the samurai guy

The whole incense smelling thing suddenly struck me as being like a fancy wine party with everyone trying to impress everyone else all

'ah yes a '67 Bordeaux, how wonderful!' Or whatever

And I'm the person who has no taste for alcohol so I'm just like 'it all kind of tastes like different kinds of shit'

And I do mean that literally

So yeah him smelling the incense and thinking it smelled like horse apples, no wonder I connected with him xD
