    Rewriting Your Fate with Zenshu

    I challenge the popular idea that truth is subjective and that we can rewrite our own destinies. Through the anime “Zenshu” and the journey of Natsuko Hinose, we explore the weight and cost of self-authorship , the exhaustion, pain, and unintended consequences of trying to control your story. _____________________________________________________________________________ Follow us: Instagram Facebook YouTube TIkTok
