| I loved it, this first episode was so fun. The artstyle is cute, and I really like Haruno's character lol I never watched Yuru Camp, but if I end up liking this one to the end, I'll probably give Yuru Camp a try later! |
  Imouto suki Tsundere-Chuuni-Imoutos save me...   |
| this genuinely looks amazing, I can feel the care and dedication put into each scene to make it feel alive. i am super excited to see how soigne finishes this show out, and their future shows. that aside, the episode itself was really fun. i love me some cgdct. |
| solid start. pretty entertaining. |
| ヘルソン |
| Lovely start. Just what I expected from Yuru Camp's author. Funny interactions and I'm already loving Kiriyama's character. By the way, it would have been glorious if Haruno's editor suggested her to draw a manga about cute girls camping xD |
| Artstyle looks great, but the first episode was kinda ok....? Feel like Yuru Camp S1 Ep1 is much better than this Still, will be looking forward for the next chapter |
| Adorable but also sort of all over the place. I felt tired by the end of the episode. |
| mono is finally here with a cute and fun start! Koga Aoi as Kiriyama An just makes her even more funnier lol Yuru Camp without the Camping, just Yuru and Photography, with a Cat! The 360 camera was so cool and the sunset timelapse with Fuji-san in view was beautiful. Really nice visuals (Yuru Camp S3 was good but imagine it could have been like this). Comfy Anime of the season along with Zatsu Tabi. |
| This anime having a Nissan Pao is already good enough in my books, and then Haruno decided to drift that thing like she's some tofu shop delivery driver. Cinema. |

| A story by the same author set in Yamanashi again. I swear this author is probably secretly on the Yamanashi tourism board team and is making these mangas as Yamanashi propaganda to boost their economy,さすが先生 |
 |
| i swear this season has a lot of hidden gems/underated anime, i would say i enjoy this season more than last winter. i like Haruno-san she's so silly lol, i love Ueshamaa voice in this anime. |
| Very good start I like it a lot and the girls are fun, I think it already convinced me to buy this kind of 360 camera, it's awesome, also I would love to stick a camera to a cat's head as well ahaha |
 |
| so much better than i was expecting. super cute characters, love the animation and the story so far!!! main characters are cute and likeable. some funny parts too and the ending song sounds cute |
| The welcome ceremony for reaching to high school huh. The photography club sounds like a fun place. Makinohara though was one hell of a inspiration. Kiriyama as the best friend until death lol. The 360 degree cam sure looked interesting. Taishou fending off Kiriyama's attempt to pet it was damm funny. Putting a cam on a cat though is a curious idea. So Haruno was a managa artist. I wouldn't trust Haruno with serious stuff. The nightscape photo was really good. |

| Nice! Now, this is the kind of CGDCT I greatly enjoy. I thought this one was so much better than Zatsu Tabi. There was some very interesting animation in this one. That time lapse looked so good in real time while watching the episode. Also, the 3D and first person camera segments. Just very nice and not something you see too often in anime. I'm sure there was plenty CG involved with some of these, but it was good enough to where I didn't notice. I really like the character designs or maybe it is just the art style, in general. The comedy was good enough. I laughed a couple times. Mostly due to the actions of the cat, haha. The chill vibes from this one were strong. Not expecting too much out of the story or anything, but as long as they keep up the art quality, this one should be a sleeper hit for me. Good stuff! |
 |
| Really like the art a lot and the characters seem promising. The focus of the show seems to be jumping around a bit already. Is it photography? Is it manga? Is it school-based? Not 100% sure what it's going to settle on, but I am liking a lot of things so far. |
| Adorable prologue! Glad Satsuki resurrected upon finding her camera via Haruno's address through the application which sold the camera. That aside, Haruno's need-4-speed driving killed me, was so hilarious, especially after the girls were trembling upon reaching their destination as soon as they got out of the car, haha. Loved the end scene where Haruno's idea actually paid off, and she ain't just referencing them, her manga is literally them, haha. Just caught up with a CGDCT manga, so really glad this came out at the perfect moment! |

Pretty much as cute and funny as I expected. I like the characters and their interactions.
Aww, such a fluffy neko. =^_^=
Aww, such a fluffy neko. =^_^=
| @Serafos New addition to your favourite Anime vehicle thread, Nissan Pao, a retro-style  |
| Fresh new beginning after her senpai graduated is certainly a good introduction for the story. Losing motivation and then unexpectedly found a new inspiration for their club activities after meeting an unlikely artist. I feel like the artist is the personification of Afro sensei lol. And the manga artist is definitely best girl as of now. That 360 fish eye came looks really cool and I like how they will take many idea for how will they capture the moments be it panorama shot or action camera on the cat. The animation also looks fluid and overall I pleasantly enjoy this premiere the most ngl. |

| WE ARE SO BACK THIS IS TRUE YURU CAMP |

30,000 photos of senpai... O_o Really enjoyed this! I love the two mains girls lol especially Kiriyama!  Looking forward to more :] |
 |
| now THIS is what i call comfort anime |
 |
| A sweet and lovely series. 🥰🥰🥰 |
| It's not that I dislike this genre but... to add unnecessary fan services to/in/for heroines and ultimately destroys her character and personality; their purity tarnished because of it, is the only thing I hope to not happen to them. For that sole purity is my fan service. |
| Yuru Camp 2.0. The fluffly comfy vibes are always nice to relax to. Saachan is the Nadeshiko of this show, so she is already my favorite |
| Wait, this is the first anime from this studio? damn good start |
| Sport Club Corinthians Paulist is the biggest football team in the world. 51 is cachaça |
| Slice of life in Yamanashi? I smell quality. :3 |
 |
| Not really close to Yuru Camp. First ep. was ok, but nothing special. |
 |
| It's very similar to Yuru Camp, which is not a bad thing since it's by the same author, and my first impression is that I'm gonna enjoy this. I'm not someone who's really into photography but then again, I was into Yuru Camp and I've never camped in my life. |
 |
| Reminds me of Tamayura... How nostalgic. The time skip? But isn't the Senpai kinda important? Well, the Doukyuusei better though. |
| A very good start. My tendency is to compare it to the first episode of Yuru Camp. I think this one pales because I'm not sure it's a good idea to begin with the senpai story and then doing a timeskip two minutes later. This works if the entire episode is focused around that in some way or the other, but it really was just a quirky introduction. Other than that narrative irregularity, it all worked well and I think Kiriyama is going to be an easy fav. It will be a nice show to follow. |
| Heh, I like the manga artist but also the cat. This looks like a funny and chill series so let's hope it's gonna be an enjoyable season. |

| well, it's giving yuru camp visually but more typical. |
 |
| I love it 😭 With Yuru Camp and now this, Afro is truly the king of modern CGDCT! I love the characters, Satsuki is cute and Haruno is great, but Kiriyama being a lesbo ruined it, still, I'll just ignore that, because this anime is still really great, and I still like her a lot, typical "best girl is actually gay" problem here. I had no idea cameras like that existed lmao, I love that photography is the focus of this one, like camping is for Yuru Camp, Afro must be someone that really knows a lot about scenery and landscapes. |
Sorry if my english is bad (っ˘▽˘)っ~~~ Btw, cry about it.  |
| If anything, I was surprised when the entire first year of our girl didn't even get a total of 2 mins of screen time lol. Though that aside, good start as usual. I mean that was to be expected, given this is from the same author of Yuru camp. I had doubts over the studio, but yeah they knocked out any looming doubts with this first episode itself. Give Yuru camp's next season to this studio Btw, did that other girl repaired her camera or bought a new one? xD |
so many Reference of famous show inserted in Mono, i take one example, This marching Soldier that Kiriyama Imagined probably a parody from 1917 film, famous film that not have cutscene. |
mono means "thing, object" in Japanese, and you need objects to take photos, not sure, I'm not the author.  |
| So, Yuru Camp is so wholesome, chill, and tame, because Mono got all the gay jokes, cringe comedy, and grotesqueries? But seriously, it's a pretty good hobby show. Especially for me as a big fan of urban photography. @AkeZZZ I feel like the first episode alone has already bred half the memes about amateur photography and amateur hobbies in general. Just look at the joke about MC mostly taking pictures of cats, random shit, the sky, and her senpai with a camera. @Red_Ranger_Wien Seriously? Yes, the show loses to YC in terms of comfy atmosphere, but purely subjectively it is much more powerful in terms of pure humor. |
