The conclusion of Rin, Nadeshiko, and Aya’s camping and scootering trip is in this volume. Lots of intense suspension bridges are shown here. And a lot of meat heavy recipes haha.
I have to admit I’m glad this arc is over. It was fun to learn about Nadeshiko’s bestie Aya, but I missed the dynamics of the entire OEC group when they are together.
Beztroski Kemping #11 jak łatwo można się domyślić po samym tytule, ponownie skupia się na czerpaniu przyjemności z obserwowania biwakowych przygód młodych bohaterek. Tym razem trójka dziewczyn wybiera się do górskiej prefektury Shizuoka. Miejsca słynącego z gorących źródeł, niesamowitych widoków i „przerażających” mostów.
Beztroski Kemping #11 - rysunek 1
Rin na swoim wiernym skuterze, Ayano na potężnym motocyklu i Nadeshiko korzystająca z transportu kolejowego. Każda z nich (razem z czytelnikiem), zanim dotrze na miejsce biwaku, będzie miała okazję zakosztować uroków tego zakątka Japonii. Urocza i wiecznie głodna Nadeshiko, jak zawsze nie tylko ekscytuje się wyprawą, ale również nie może się oprzeć pokusie spróbowania lokalnych pyszności. W tym samym czasie duet motocyklowy (Rin,Ayano) przeżywa swoje momenty radości i strachu. Kiedy całe trio spotyka się na umówionym miejscu, rozpoczyna się najważniejsza część mangi, czyli beztroski kemping w otoczeniu piękna przyrody i cudownych zapachów gotowanego dania.
Nie zmienia się więc ogólny zarys historii przedstawianej w kolejnych tomach serii. Taka tematyka dla wielu potencjalnych czytelników może wydawać się prosta i nudna. Jest to jednak bardzo mylne wrażenie, które ustępuje po przeczytaniu kilku stron mangi. Z tytułu bowiem dosłownie wylewa się sielankowa atmosfera, która jest mocno urokliwa. Ponadto pojawiające się tutaj młode bohaterki robią to co lubią i widać to w ich nastroju. Ich pozytywne nastawienie udziela się czytelnikowi, który poddaje się potężnej fali komiksowego relaksu.
While Rin and Aya ride their scooters, Nadeshiko travels by train to meet up with them for some camping. They all sight see along the way in the Ooi River area (especially suspension bridges and dams in the area), both separately and together, and also do some camp cooking experimentation.
Another chill adventure with the OEC members. This volume has enough details about cooking stew and meat in clever ways it is actually quite informative for campers. I feel like this series has taught me more about the geography and sights of Japan than anything else I've come across in my life. It's an armchair tour of Japan's countryside, and a non-drama-filled contemporary story that is a relaxing read.
Notes on content: No language issues. No sexual content. (There are some older ladies in the background at a spring you can tell are undressed but they are positioned in such a way and are so small really nothing is able to be seen.) No violence.
The "Oigawa-bridge camp" might be my favorite camping trip so far. I love the interaction between Rin and Ayano very much. Especially Rin seems very comfortable in Ayanos presence thus making her showing lots of emotions. Before that Rin showed them most of the time when she's alone. On the other hand there is Ayano with a silly and chill attitude who is happy to finally have a "biker friend". I hope we see more of her in the future.
Meanwhile Nadeshiko is on her own until they all meet at the evening, so we get some nice solo adventuring with her too and she developed a pession for (retro) trains. Furthermore I enjoyed the environment with all those bridges and the interaction with them a lot. Also I think the manga already looks pretty since the beginning but in this volume the drawings are looking more beautiful than ever before in my opinion. This makes the experience even better. Can we talk about this beautiful cover as well?
The amount of unique dishes this manga series makes me want to try is exorbitant! I love the characters and their sweet interactions so much. I'm still scared of suspension bridges, but it was fun seeing them go on new adventures! I really enjoyed seeing Rin and Aya's relationship develop as they rode their bikes together, as well as Nadeshiko's growing independence as she used the train system to travel.
Suspension Bridge Tour camping with Aya-chan still continue, love the friendship between Nadeshiko and Aya and Rin, it's just so cute, childhood bestie and new bestie camping together, it's so much fun, and also lots of foods and recipes that I want to try. Overall it's a cozy relaxing fun read, even though I miss the whole group.
There might be different modes of transpiration to get to the destination...but the destination is what they are all arriving at! This volume continues the "Suspension Bridge Tour". The meals! The transportation! The comradery! Another solid volume from Afro.
I love seeing all the sites the girls are visiting before, during, and after their camping trip! And seeing all the fun they have with food. A nice, relaxing manga to wine-down with.
Did the art style change? I had time telling Rin apart from Aya. Also, this volume didn't have the same magic for me as previous volumes. Maybe I needed the rest of the gang to keep the magic going.
