Synopsis from the official anime site[]

Translated with Google Translate and then edited...
Rin Shima is a high school girl whose hobby is solo camping. Despite the cold November sky, she is riding her bike to Lake Motosu for a solo camp today. The winter campsite is reserved for Rin, but for some reason, there is a girl who is sleeping on a bench outside... Her name is Nadeshiko Kagamihara. She has just moved to Yamanashi and came to see Mt. Fuji, which is also depicted on the 1,000 yen bill. After a chance encounter, the two end up spending the night together at Lake Motosu...[1]

Crunchyroll blurb[]

Shima Rin goes solo camping at Motosuko Lake, where she encounters an odd girl sleeping on a bench.[2]

Plot synopsis[]

Rin goes camping at Lake Motosu. That evening she is startled by a stranger, Nadeshiko, near the washroom. Nadeshiko biked here to see Mount Fuji, then had a nap for the rest of the afternoon. With it getting dark she is afraid to bike home, and has no food either.

Rin offers curry noodles which they both eat at the campfire. They enjoy the view of Mount Fuji after the clouds clear up, then Sakura, Nadeshiko's older sister, comes and picks her up. Nadeshiko gives Rin her number so they can stay in touch.

The episode ends with a scene in school, which both Nadeshiko and Rin attend, although neither of them knows that the other is there.

Room Camp short[]

Chiaki imagines a tent that would make winter camping more attractive. With a heater and a hard-shell roof, it resembles a kotatsu, which is a low table with a surrounding blanket and a heater underneath.

Locations[]

  • Rin is camping at Koan Campground on Lake Motosu, northwest of Mount Fuji. For her, it's a 10 km (6 mile) bike ride.
  • Nadeshiko said she biked all the way from her home in Nanbu to the campground area, roughly 23 miles (35 km) of travel. With an elevation gain of 1300m (4200 ft), it's a very challenging ride.
  • The winding road which the girls use to bike up the mountain from the village of Ichinose is a category 1 climb of 14 km, rising 650m in elevation (from 264m at the river to 912m at the lake).
  • When Nadeshiko goes to school, she rides the train from Utsubuna Station to Kai-Tokiwa Station on the Minobu Line which is a 40-minute trip.

Notes & Trivia[]

  • This episode includes additional content not featured in the manga chapter it was adapted from, including:
    • The cold opening, which occurs during episode 11 in the timeline and cameos Chiaki Ōgaki, Aoi Inuyama, and Ena Saitō before they are officially introduced
    • Rin's text conversation with Ena
    • Sakura noticing that Nadeshiko went missing from home
    • Nadeshiko's maiden journey to Motosu High School, overlaid with the credits
  • In theory, there are no high schools around the Nanbu area so Nadeshiko's only option is going to Motosu High School in Minobu. In real life, the school at Motosu was an elementary and middle school, not a high school. It closed when the school districts were consolidated in 2012. The closest high school she could attend in real-life is Minobu High School (山梨県立身延高等学校) in Umedaira (梅平) near Minobu Station.[3]
