Tamayura ~More Aggressive~ - Episode 8.5 (OVA)

Maon gets sick right before the class trip to Okinawa, and Norie is sad her sketchbook wasn't filled with memories. Fuu suggests they make their own trip to Onomichi.

Heh.

It's too bad that pure slice of life shows like Tamayura need to have their own sub-genre called "healing anime." Since last summer, when the broadcast episodes aired, there has been no actual slice of life anime running a full half hour, except Non Non Biyori. Shows coming close to pure "slife" have featured fox gods, agricultural schools, and strange people in boarding houses. Tamayura's hook, if it can be said to have one, is that the cute girls doing cute things in their daily lives also visit many of the sleepy coastal villages near Takehara. Watching Fuu and her friends again definitely gave me that sense of calm and "healing" that I've been missing.

How great is it to have a friend in Norie who cries for your empty sketchbook? Sentiment has a negative connotation these days, but that's the word I think of when all of Maon's friends quickly decide to make their own school trip to replace the one Maon missed in Okinawa.

Momoneko yawning and blessing their trip? Auspicious!

Maon's mom stopping doting papa from tagging along was hilarious.

Sketchbook was filled, views were seen, food was eaten, and memories were made together. Successful trip all the way around. Maon even replied with a whistle or two. I can't wait for the four movies coming out next year showing the girls' last year of high school. Sentimental healing anime with no negative connotations. Fuu was "more aggressive" this year. I wonder what she'll be next year.
