Yuru Camp Spoilers
The literal translation of the Japanese word “iyashikei” is “healing.” So, a genre of Japanese literature and entertainment named after that word predictably encompasses books, stories, manga, and anime that energize the spirit of the readers or audiences. It falls under the broader slice-of-life category. ‘Yuru Camp’ is the perfect example of an iyashikei. It celebrates the slowness of peaceful existence, the warmth of a campfire, and the sheer nostalgia of shared experiences.
In the season-1 finale, Nadeshiko tells her friends how she thinks they would be in ten years when Rin ultimately comes back. The girls watch multiple films and TV shows on Chiaki’s tablet. Rin and Nadeshiko stare at the night sky as they make plans for the new year. The following morning, Rin and Nadeshiko wake up early to prepare breakfast as the sun begins to light up the eastern sky. Afterward, they return to their respective lives. Rin continues to work at a bookstore, while Nadeshiko gets a job of delivering New Year’s cards with Ena’s help. In the closing scenes, Nadeshiko goes back to Lake Motosu for a solo camping trip but discovers that Rin is there as well.
