Shiny days and cute girls camping...xD

Hello! How are you, people? For me, I'm doing fine. I know that COVID has screwed everyone up so badly. I hope that things will become better as soon as possible. 

Chill camping session...

Anyway, after a difficult moment to produce anything...Uhhh, sorry, there was Strike Witches season 3 but my lack of motivation kills off any quick releases of ANY new blog posts. I wanted to write about the Slime anime and Mushoku Tensei anime on this blog but I still need to wait for part 2 to make sure that it's done proper. So...time for Yuru Camp season 2!!!! IT IS SO GOOD. Trust me. Oh? I didn't EVEN do season 1 of it?! OK, let's go ALL OUT for BOTH SEASONS! GOOOOOO!!!!!!!!

Introduction



This is the manga

The series that I gonna talk about, Yuru Camp (Japanese: ゆるキャン△) is known in English, Laid-Back Cam and is a manga series written and illustrated by Afro. It was first serialized in Houbunsha's Manga Time Kirara Forward magazine from July 2015 to February 2019 until it was transferred to the publisher website and app for a manga called Comic Fuz. What is Comic Fuz?

Season 1

Oh, as for the anime television series adaptation (season 1 and 2), it is done by C-Station aired in Japan from January to March 2018, which is co-financed and licensed by Crunchyroll. Oh, Crunchyroll...? Crunchyroll...sigh...really?

...and also season 2!!!

Anyway, the short anime, Heya Camp, is released and aired from January to March 2020. There is also the live-action drama series...Uhhh...let's not talk about it. Alright, regarding the second anime season, which was released recently (January to April 2021)...I like it!!! I missed it already. I need MORE!!!! Oh, I forgot. There will be an anime film premiering in 2022. I'm looking forward to it. I heard that there is a virtual reality video game based on the series that was released in March 2021. Nice. Enjoy. Time to move on.

Ah...I'm looking forward to the movie!

Plot


Cute Rin smiling...

The story is basically about cute girls going camping. Yeah, ok, let's move on...OK, OK, OK! I'm gonna further elaborate. I'm kidding about moving on with just THAT one sentence. Anyway, Imma let Wikipedia elaborate a bit further:

Set in and around Yamanashi Prefecture, Japan, the series chronicles the adventures of Rin Shima, Nadeshiko Kagamihara, and their friends as they travel to various campsites across the country.

Yeah, it's a pretty simple story. The anime starts with Shima Rin's solo camping journey and then later meets with Kagamihara Nadeshiko. Technically, the anime starts with a scene of Rin going camping with a bunch of friends before that. Oh, if you are confused with the names, my name order for Japanese names is usually "[Family Name/Last Name] [Given Name]", while the Wikipedia one is "[Given Name] [Family Name/Last Name] ". Get it? Ok, now, let's move on.

Awww...Nadeshiko...dun cry...

A nice moment for Rin and Nadeshiko...

Anyway, those two has an interesting night together briefly. Nadeshiko ate and chat with Rin during their time together. The hilarious thing that she has forgotten to bring her smartphone with her. The whole incident ended with Rin calling Nadeshiko's sister to fetch Nadeshiko as Nadeshiko remembers her sister's number. LOL! The whole incident was quite hilarious, cute and also chill.

Nadeshiko and her Outdoor Activities Circle new friend.

Cute group camping...xD

The two girls met at school later on when Nadeshiko tries to find her in the Outdoor Activities Circle and fails as she is not a member of the circle. Well, she did found her eventually. Anyway, the anime continues to tells the story of the camping journey of Nadeshiko and co. As for Rin's case, she starts to hang out with the girls more, together with her close friend, Saitou Ena. They even got together to go camping, which is the one display at the start of episode 1 of the anime.

Nadeshiko solo camp

Another group camping and Rin rides her bike. xD

Let's talk about Season 2...OK, it is pretty much the same old same, just like season 1. There are a few different stuff that happened. One of them is Nadeshiko's 1st solo camping. She decided to do so after listening to the reason why Rin love solo camping. As per tradition, another group camping is being held once again. I love every moment of the anime. It's chill, cute and sometimes funny. Oh, the Heya Camp (or Room Camp) is also pretty cute. Anyway, let's move on.

部屋キャン!!!

Conclusion


Well, that's the end of the post. Seriously, what more can I say about Yuru Camp? It is a rare 10 out of 10 anime other than Chuunibyou and maybe a few others that I've forgotten. Anyway, this time, I'm not gonna push myself too hard to write a new blog post since this is just an interest of mine, not my job. I dun want the experience of writing a new blog post to become a chore and a job. Uh...with that being said, I hope that you enjoy reading and browsing this blog. Goodbye, and God bless you!

Cute chubby Nadeshiko for you. xD

That face by Rin in hot springs...cute. xD



Overall Rating (whole anime): 10 (10)/10
