Yuru Camp△ Season 2 (2021)

Weaker than the first season

This second season of "Yuru Camp" was in my humble opinion much weaker than both the first season and the in-between special episode. Fukuhara Haruka's screentime was drastically shrinked here, while most of the focus went to the supporting actresses - but that per se wouldn't have been such a big problem, as they're all decent actresses (even though not as good as Fukuhara - anyway, thumbs up to Ohara Yuno for her always contagious chuckle ^__^). The real problem is that the focus was also mostly switched from actual "yurucamping" to silly comedy, alas without much success. As a consequence, also the scenery, which had been an important detail previously, got a bit neglected here (don't expect loads of spectacular views, but rather just the occasional glimpse).
I have no idea how much covid-related restrictions could have been the cause of these changes for the worse, though...therefore my not-too-low grade.
