Media I enjoyed this summer

Yuru Camp

Where I live gets extremely hot each summer, so the serein crisp winter that Yuru Camp portrays is extremely comforting. This anime genuinely made me want to go camping, to the point of even planning out a trip in February with my parents. The characters are just a delight to watch interact with each other, and Rin’s (the girl shown) introversion and enjoyment of solo camping is never shown as a bad thing, she’s just someone who enjoys spending time alone, I can relate to that.

This anime is low stakes with a wonderful atmosphere, I’ve only watched the first season so far but I thoroughly enjoyed it.

Made in Abyss : Season 2

I previously watched Made in Abyss season 1 and Dawn of the Deep Soul this spring and began reading where they left off, the manga is absolutely breathtaking in of itself but the anime adaptation is in a league of its own. Season two covers one of the darkest arcs in the story so far, loosing none of its grotesqueness in adaptation. Although you loose Akihito Tsukushi’s intricate art style the music and attention to detail in the animation truly bring the atmosphere together.

Once episode 12 drops I highly recommend picking up the manga as there’s only a few chapters into the new arc.

Silver Spoon

One of Hiromu Arakawa’s works adapted into anime, in terms of genre its far from Fullmetal Alchemist, but I’d recon for what it is it’s still great. A lot of it is based off of Arakawa’s own experiences living on a diary farm, and you can just feel her knowledge in how she writes about farm animals.

The characters are extremely enjoyable, especially Hachiken, as you get to watch him slowly adapt and thrive in this new environment. Also the anime makes the food these characters are frequently eating look amazing.

Kemono Friends

Kemono Friends isn’t anything to write home about, it’s a simple and fun kids show with jank as hell animation. Despite that it’s great, it’s not a complex anime by any means, but its fun to watch. Each episode comes with little facts about the real life animals each of the girls is based off of, which is always fun to watch.

Unfortunately the second season wasn’t nearly as good, although the animation improved the small story that was there wasn’t built on in a good way. The second season wasn’t nearly as enjoyable as the first. .

Continued Under the Cut

Panty and Stocking with Garterbelt

Something not a lot of my online friends know is that I have an extremely raunchy sense of humor, and this show managed to hit that right on the head. I watched paswg twice in the past, and since I heard that a second season will be coming in the near future I figured I’d rewatch it. I had a grand time with this thing, it’s stupid and fun and great.

Steven Universe

This is not my first time watching this show, I kept up with it from the end of Season 1 to the movie. For 4 straight years, from when I was 12 to 17, this show was an extremely important part of my life. I decided to rewatch it since it had completely finished, and so far it’s been an absolute joy. The show is slow in the beginning, but it truly picks up in the second season. Although it doesn’t enrapture me like it did when I was a kid I’m having fun watching it now.

Gravity Falls

Much like Steven Universe, I watched this show when I was younger. I caught up with it in late 2015, a few episodes before the final, and it’s been a joy to rewatch it. The shows atmosphere is wonderful, spooky and fun, I’m enjoying this as much if not more than when I first watched it. I’ve finished the first season and am working my way through the second.

Arcane

I don’t particularly care for League of Legends, I have never played the game and I don’t particularly want to. But this show is incredible, the story it tells is heartbreaking, Jinx portrays someone with ptsd and psychotic episodes almost perfectly. She’s not just crazy for crazy’s sake, she’s broken and hurting. Needless to say the character writing in this is top notch, the mix of 3d and 2d animation is breathtaking. It’s a feast for the eyes, highly recommend.

Animal Crossing : New Horizons

Although I played this game back in 2020 when it first came out, I dropped it a few months in. It didn’t really hit me as something to keep coming back to at the time, I recently restarted my island and picked the game back up again and am making more progress than I did before. I’m having fun, this game isn’t story based and that can be a comfort for me. I both enjoy and detest looking for rare fish.

All in all I’m having a blast, I can just pick this up and have fun without any real pressure.

Honkai Impact 3rd

I initially started playing this game last summer, and have played it fairly consistently since then. Despite this I mention it here because I went on a break of sorts from it and have gotten back into, it just had a new summer update and the events have been pretty fun. I haven’t been keeping up with the main story as I find the open world to be kind of exhausting. Anyway, play this game the story is great, the combat is snappy and fun, and it’s characters are just a delight on the eyes.

Tokyo Mew Mew

Despite a reboot currently coming out for this franchise I havent been watch it, instead I’ve been on and off again reading the manga. I will probably watch the 2001 anime once I’ve finished it. This series holds some nostalgia for me since I watched it when I was younger, in the awful 4kids dub in 3 parts an episode on youtube, those were the days

Never the less this series is simple for a magical girl show, but It’s fun. The art of the manga is wonderful, the late Mia Ikumi’s art is delicate and captures innocence wonderfully.

Fruits Basket 2019

The originaly fruits basket series was such an important anime to me as a kid, I struggled with anger issues and feel like no one understood me, I related a lot to Kyo. I originally kept up with the first season of the reboot while it was first airing, the anime is a wonderful adaptation of the entire original manga.

It was also a joy watching a good portion of the original dub cast come back years later with more experience under their belts revise their old roles. Laura Baily especially is a delight to watch as Tohru.

Adventure Time: Distant Lands

Adventure Time had an incredible ending, and although it didn’t need the epilogue specials, they were wonderful. Telling one off stories about set characters in each episode. ‘Finn and Jake are Dead’ was my favorite out of the four specials, wonderfully wrapping up the brothers story together wonderfully. ‘Obsidian’ did a wonderful job further fleshing out Marcaline’s past, as well as showing why she an Bubblegum originally broke up in the first place. I’m glad to have seen both of them grow and have a healthy relationship now.

ID Text in Keep Reading. Descriptions of regions in Keep Reading. Spoilers for KF (2015), KF (2017), KF2, and KF3 once you reach the region descriptions. Thank you to everyone who helped with this.

The following two photos consist of two Kemono Friends 3-era Japari Park maps. The first is unedited and directly from the game. The second got edited by Japari Park Companion to contain each known area name. Major credit to the fan-run Japari Library and its users for its titled maps over the years, referencing a couple.

As much as it attempts to avoid headcanon, please do not take it as absolute accuracy. These have no association with Japari Library or Kemono Friends Project outside of using their content as sources. All are free to sample it for their appropriate and KFP-friendly needs.

Kemono Friends 3 is not after Kemono Friends 2 or Kemono Friends 2017. It is an indirect sequel to Kemono Friends 2015, the original mobile game that started the franchise.

Japari Library Wiki’s own version of this map is on this page.

[ID: The first photo is a fictional map of Japari Park from Kemono Friends 3; it is on a cyan ocean background with a tan border:

The tan border has “Japari Park” written as a title. It is from an official mobile game that roughly takes place in a time known as Generation 2 in Japari Park. Japari Park is an archipelago; with several islands surrounded by water and near each other. Japari, in full: is one large island and six smaller ones. Japari’s geographical landforms are based on real-life Japan but are still fictional. It is often described as a large open zoo far from the world’s continents.

The second photo is an identical map - but is this time edited to list several of the geographical regions, being:

Park Central.

Sankai.

Nakabe.

Rikuhoku.

An’in.

Anyo.

Gokoku

Kyōshū.

Akushima.

Riukiu.

Hokkai.

And finally, Hōtoku.

The contents and appearances of these regions go as follows:

Park Central.

Being the bottommost middle part of the main island, Park Central can be described as an equivalent to the real-life Japan’s Kanto Region with a capital also known as “Park Central” akin to real-life Tokyo. The region is known for its green forested scenery. Park Central’s capital resembles a huge circular theme park surrounded by a large wall.

Said capitol has rides such as Ferris wheels, structures such as the Kemono Hospital, and attractions such as the Japari Park Pavilion and the vast Kemono Castle. Earlier into Gen 2, said castle was occupied by the defunct original mobile game’s antagonist, the Cellien Queen, resulting in its destruction until being repaired in Kemono Friends 3.

According to the fan-site Japari Library, not the location of Japari Library, by the time of Kemono Friends 2, Gen ?, around Park Central somewhere are the Azura Park bamboo grove, the cruise-able stage show inhabited coastal aquatic Marine Life Park, the densely tree-covered Jungle Park with a nearby research lab, the scorching cactus-strewn tropical savanna South Maerica Park, and the whale-shaped Japari Hotel, all connected to the Japari Line monorail service. The monorail was still under construction around early Kemono Friends 3, Circa Gen 2.

Sankai Region.

Being a part of the main island to the left of Park Central, Sankai can be described as an equivalent to Japan’s real-life Kansai Region. The region is notably home to various caves and is known for its tannish and sandy desert scenery. Notable locations of the said region include Oasis No. 1, the region’s primary water source. And an expansive underground shopping mall called the Odyssey.

Due to its harsh climate, several roads dot it that occasionally pass-through tunnels. Following an incident during Kemono Friends 3, disrepair temporarily fell upon the Odyssey. During Kemono Friends 3 as well, there was a Japari Museum, a massive warehouse. The Sankai Region is occasionally described by the name of the Desert Area.

Nakabe Region.

Being a part of the main island above Park Central, Nakabe can be described as an equivalent to Japan’s real-life Chubu Region. The region is known for its largely swampy, brown, and green waterfront scenery. Notable locations of the said region include the renowned Amatatsu Waterfall and the nearby mechanized “Undine” water treatment plant in Serenity Jungle. It is most known for the extensive concert venue located inside the region. The Nakabe Region is occasionally described by the name of the Waterfront Area.

Rikuhoku Region.

As part of the main island, not much is known about the Rikuhoku Region by the Japari Park Companion team. On the map Rikuhoku is located near mountains and has green mountain scenery. It is close to Nakabe.

An’in Region.

Being the farthest left part of the main island, An’in can be described as equivalent to real-life Japan’s San-in Region. The region is known for its sometimes mountainous, other times densely forested, and infrequently open green jungle scenery.

Notable locations of the said region include the vital An’in Ferry Terminal and the Japari Park Security and Research Team headquarters that acts as JSRT’s main base. In Season 3 of Kemono Friends 3, by referencing the An��in Ferry Terminal in-game collectible photo, the Ferry Terminal may be the one notable for being the perceived site of the first long-term guest to Japari Park, Hikari. The An’in Region is occasionally described by the name of Jungle Area occasionally as well as Forest Area.

Anyo Region.

As part of the main island, not much is known about the Anyo Region by the Japari Park Companion team. On the map Rikuhoku is located near mountains and has green mountain scenery. It is close to An’in.

Hōtoku Region.

Being the farthest right and the last currently recorded region on the main island, Hōtoku can be described as an equivalent to Japan’s real-life Tohoku region. The region is known for its often cloudy and broad green high mountain scenery. Notable locations of the said region include sites for holding sky races. It is often known as the Sea of Clouds by inhabitants and visitors alike. The Hōtoku Region is also occasionally described by the name of Sky Area.

Gokoku Region.

Being the closest smaller island to the left mainland shores of the An’in Region, Gokoku can be described as an equivalent to Japan’s real-life Shikoku region. The region is known for its varied climates and sometimes mountainous, occasionally cavernous, largely green open scenery, lush forests being the most common of them during Kemono Friends 3.

Notable locations of the said region include sites for holding art festivals, sites for producing independent films, and the presumed headquarters of the Japari Park Guard Team. Due to the positioning of the archipelago - in Chapter 4 of Cellval's Hang Out Story in Kemono Friends 3, it could potentially be the site of the Chinatown-Esque Japari Night Market, although it could not be.

Kyōshū Region.

Directly below the island region of Gokoku and the left mainland shores of the An’in Region, Kyōshū can be described as an equivalent to Japan’s real-life Kyūshū region. During the times of the defunct original mobile game in early Gen 2, Kyōshū was well known for being a collection of mild grasslands. But by the time of Gen ? Sandstar had morphed and split the region into at least ten to eleven or more distinct climate areas with a colossal Sandstar volcano in the middle.

Notable splits of the said region include the Savanna Area, the Jungle Area, the High Mountain Area, the Desert Area, the Waterfront Area, the Plains Area, the Forest Area, the Snowy Mountains Area, the Ocean Area, the Tropics Area, and the Sandstar Volcano Exterior.

Notable locations of the said region include the Savanna Area Mountaintop Watering hole, the Savanna Area Gate to the Jungle Area, the Jungle Area Tour Walkaway, the Jungle Area An’in Bridge, the High Mountain Area Mountaintop Japari Café, the Desert Area Underground Roadside Tunnel, the Desert Area Underground Labyrinth, the Waterfront Area Lake Shore, the Plains Area Castle, the Plains Area Dojo, the Forest Area Japari Library, the Waterfront Concert Venue, the Snowy Mountain Hot Springs, the on the way from the Snowy Mountains Area to Hinode Port Lodge, the Sandstar Volcano surrounding Hinode Port, the Sandstar Volcano far-off surrounding Amusement Park, and finally the Sandstar Volcano itself.

Additionally, there is a Japari Museum, a massive warehouse, and in circa Gen 2, replacing the Gen ?-era Café is the High Mountain Area Mountaintop Japari Cabin. The Gen 2 Japari Café‘s location is currently not recorded.

Akushima Region.

Directly to the right of the island region of Kyōshū and below the in-between between the middle mainland shores of Park Central and the Sankai Region, not much is known about the Akushima region by the Japari Park Companion team. On the map, Akushima is the smallest island and has green scenery. In the defunct original mobile game, there are some forests with large trees, a few mountains, and an open shore.

Riukiu Region.

To the lower left of the island of the Akushima Region and below the mainland shores of Park Central, the Riukiu Region can be described as an equivalent to Japan’s real-life Ryukyu Region. The region is known for its palm tree-strewn green climate and tropical sandy beach scenery.

Notable locations of the said region include Riukiu Aquarium, the Starry Sky Data Library, a Japari Café, and the Shiserval Dojo. And by at least Kemono Friends Festival, similar to Kyōshū, Riukiu is home to Area splits of its own. The eight are the Tropics Area, the beach-filled Ocean Area, the shipwreck-strewn droughted Desert Area, the Jungle Area, the High Mountain Area, the Lake Shore, the Snowy Mountains Area, and the Savanna Area.

Hokkai Region.

Being the closest smaller island to the right mainland shores of the Hōtoku Region, the Hokkai Region can be described as an equivalent to Japan’s real-life Hokkaido Region. The region is known for its harsh tundra climates adorned with frozen over huddles of water, scattered hot springs, and mountain scenery.

Notable locations of the said region include the Tsubekuri Snowfield, various cabins, and one Hot Spring near a Sandstar volcano in the vicinity. The Hokkai Region is occasionally described by the name of Snowfield Area.
