Her books did actually change my life (not the manga obviously). Spark Joy is a really good companion to the original book. It had an immediate effect but also over time I took in the philosophy of it and it's fundamentally changed my relationship with stuff and joy in life. There's so much fucking consumerism in the US and people sometimes get offended when I'm not hanging onto their garbage or won't accept something they bought for themselves for me. Additionally the folding does suck and I didn't do it for the first 3-4 years after reading the book but now I literally fold all my shirts and pants and shorts this way. I hated the folding, not sure why I converted over to doing it. Now I basically feel weird if I don't do it because it IS a better method of folding than most other ways. I don't often do the socks or underwear that way though, that seems like a waste of time. It's also marginally harder.

But yeah no chance in hell I buy that manga and the show disappointingly, was absolute garbage.
