Perfect Days

Both films are slice-of-life, they focus on the everyday lives of their characters rather than a distinct plot. They're visually stunning, with beautiful aesthetics and cinematography. And they have a melancholic tone. 

"One Day Off" and Perfect Days" are slice of life about introverted main characters in their simple and peaceful yet fulfilling and adventurous lives. Enjoying the little things in the world and finding comfort by yourself.

Both of the movies are about appreciating the small things in life as their themes. Both of them follows a protagonist and how they live their life. Both are very slow paced but they make you appreciate life.

They are not same, but I believe if one loves to watch the "Perfect Days", she/he might love "Little Forest" too. Both portray solitude and how to be happy by your own company.

Both films explore the inner lives of emotionally reserved men through stillness, routine, and human connection. If you appreciated Drive My Car for its quiet grief, subtle character work, and visual storytelling, Perfect Days delivers a more stripped-down but equally moving experience. It’s about how we carry sorrow, seek beauty in simplicity, and remain open—however softly—to the people life places in our path.

both have slow lives. both protagonists are thankful for the jobs they do and the life they live. both are *very* calming, and relaxing.
