![]() A quick flashback scene in the first episode hints at perhaps their first home: much younger and smaller versions of themselves were sent away by a mysterious person from what looks like a military base, camp, or a human settlement on the verge of collapse. The girls while young, are old enough to be able to identify bomber planes, ruined machine guns, and tanks but have no clue what chocolate is. In Girl’s Last Tour, Yuu is more focused on the now–and Chi more eagle-eyed on the future. She’s a bit of a space case as well, making trouble as she often falls asleep and makes mistakes that cause Chi much stress. The second part of our duo Yuuri, nicknamed and often referred to as Yuu, is the more carefree and spontaneous one. ![]() She appears to be perhaps slightly younger but for sure shorter in height when compared to Yuuri. She’s strict–especially when it comes to their forever dwindling supplies. Chito, nicknamed and often referred to as Chii-chan, is the more calm and straight-laced one. I really loved watching and seeing how Chito and Yuuri choose to handle certain situations while traveling: their different personalities and views clash at almost every turn which made for great laughs. They even have a few encounters that will make you cry or laugh–perhaps both! Think slice of life meets most-certainly-post-apocalyptic. With Chito, behind the steering wheel, and Yuuri, handling gun duties, they travel farther than they’ve ever gone, and the anime gives all the philosophical vibes as they ponder on machines and buildings made in the past. The series follows Yuuri and Chito traveling in their beloved Kettenkrad motorbike as they try to salvage what’s left of the post-apocalyptic world around them, but they also uncover unique places left untouched and have experiences that change them for better or worse. While not bite sized, this twelve-episode anime is a darling that the fandom adores, and I’m onboard to write about for those unaware!īased on a six volume manga series by Tsukumizu, this anime adaption follows two girls exploring the ruins of civilization looking for food and fuel in a future where most of humanity is gone. Revisiting it this year meant that I looked forward to all the quiet moments this series included that made me ponder all about the purpose of civilization and who I’d want to travel with in a ruined world. I randomly came across the anime on Prime Video ages ago and slowly took my time watching and savoring it. Here’s another entry in the ‘Hidden Gem Anime Series to Enjoy’ series for you all to enjoy: Girl’s Last Tour.
