LAID-BACK CAMP SEASON2

Yuru Camp or Laid-Back Camp is a show that offers much more than girls camping. Yuru camp delivers on all of the goals it sets & then some to form one of the most relaxing, comforting, & beautiful anime ever.

Animation:
The animation is incredible. I specifically remember a scene of a girl named, Ayano Toki, talking with her hand holding her jaw, & instead of just drawing her mouth moving when she spoke, the animator(s) actually drew her whole face bobbing up and down along with her speech due to her hand holding her jaw in place. The animators did not have to add such details for the scene to work, but they did & it's great to look at.
There are many full-body animations of the characters, usually walking around the camp grounds.

Style:
Speaking of which, the backgrounds of when they go outside are drawn with extreme attention to detail. Many times I would pause & rewind to more closely examine the intricate details of the scene. Yuru Camp is set during a cold Winter & the lighting reflects that like no other anime series I have seen before. You can tell the season is Winter just by inspecting the lighting/colour choice on the faces of the characters.
Furthermore, Yuru Camp has lots of style in it's general presentation. Never do the gags or small segments feel out of place. They all work together to form the most relaxing & comforting environment possible, Yuru Camp delivers.
The characters' designs are perfectly modest & appropriate for the subject of this show. They dress like normal girls, albeit maybe slightly more stylish than average girls (i.e. Aoi Inuyama). There is nothing that the girls wear that is odd or flashy or out of place. Keep in mind the cold setting.

Characters:
All of them are likeable, all. I cannot think of a single character in this series I dislike. Yuru Camp sets out to make this show feel like hanging out with your friends & it delivers every single episode.

Sound:
OP & ED suit the anime very well. However, the little melody thrown in at the very end of each episode at the end title card adds the optimal amount of comfort at the end of each episode. The OST overall achieves the comforting environment with splendour.

Narrative:
The overarching story is fine, it satisfies as much as it needs to. The girls like to hang out & camp, that's pretty much it. The subject matter of the show is understood & it never tries to be more than what it is.

Overall:
This is one the very few anime I have re-watched. This is mostly due to the animation & style, there's so much to miss especially when looking down to read the subtitles. I know personally this show really helps me out when I am feeling down. Absolutely unforgettable. If you like slice of life, camping, cute girls, iyashkei, or amazing animation I think you will like Yuru Camp.
In the OP the pictures on Shima Rin's phone change each episode based on the events of the previous episode. I watch the OP every episode, but I didn't notice the first two times I watched it until someone pointed it out to me. Dear Reader, don't miss out.
