... View MoreNadeshiko Kagamihara has moved to a town not far from Mount Fuji and wants to get a good view of Japan's most famous mountain. This doesn't go according to plan as she gets caught up in bad weather. Luckily she is found by Rin, a girl who enjoys camping on her own. Nadeshiko develops an interest in camping and joins the school's Outdoor Activity Club. She tries to get Rin to join too but she declines. As the series progresses the characters go camping at various sites and even though Rin doesn't join the club she sometimes joins them, on other occasions she goes off on her own.There are plenty of anime series about a group of school girls with a specific interest but there is always room for more and this is a good addition to the genre. The camping provides a fine excuse for lots of great background scenery, much of it featuring Mt Fuji. The characters are a lot of fun; most notably Nadeshiko and Rin but also the other members of the club and their teacher who believes camping is improved with plenty of booze! When the series came to a close I was definitely left wanting more. Overall I'd say this is just the thing for anybody wanting a gentle slice of life anime.These comments are based on watching the series in Japanese with English subtitles.
