Review of Laid-Back Camp: The Movie
This is another beautiful work in line with the rest of the series. I absolutely loved the first two seasons and, while I did enjoy this, I felt a little bit of disappointment and I can't exactly pin down just exactly what it might be. All the characters were virtually the same, though appropriately adjusted for adulthood. They were still young women and had continued to work (kudos to the mangaka that made sure people understood they were working for what they wanted to do rather than just magically having money or getting it from their parents as an allowance.) That still share their love forcamping to work in a big way this time, but by building and sharing it rather than partaking. The idea is very novel and it's well adapted.
I think it's the fact that they aren't teenage girls just going out and having a good time like I was used to in the first two seasons that has me a little let down. I know things can't always stay that way and it's great to see them still stick together because that's hard to do once you leave school and go to different places.
I am very much looking forward to season 3 in 2024 and expect a return to roots.
