| Chika and Fuyune has one of the more unique relationships in this show imo. I just love their chemistry together whether it's just simple conversing or eating. This episode did have one of the longer segments on a train, which is somewhat different than walking in the nature. Only one more episode left and I miss this anime already... |
 |
| The Sleeper Sunrise Izumo taking Chika and Fuyune to Shimane, it's a trip with her Master, though what exactly is on the latter's mind, espeically when it concerns her and Riri? Either way, both reaching Izumo and going to Izumo-Taisha while imitating being an old train, it's quite the train pilgrimage, though the matchmaking thinking has been living rent-free in Chika's mind of a potential partner between the two. Still, premium food like Nodoguro being enticing and the motive of being at the temple itself, it's more like a normal argument and praying for a patch-up between Fuyune and Riri. If anything, Fuyune and Riri having a petty argument over food, it's quite useless to think much about it. Whatever it is, both mangaka have their inspirations for their own work, and continue the next day, especially Fuyune writing a rather long 24-page draft for Riri, and then nearly missing a bus that goes to Mihonoseki, which unfortunately brings them off-course even more, welp... Better find your way out soon, apprentice and Master! |
 |
| Well, in this episode, just like the previous one, Chika helps resolve Fuyune's problem. But now they’re on a bus heading to a different place, and I wonder how the final episode will end. |
   |
| Traveling is all about experiencing new things, taking to wrong bus doesn't have to be a problem you might see something that you weren't expecting. Also Chika overthinking things was funny, hopefully they can manage to solve the fight. |
| Chika and Fuyune has such a fun dynamic together am sure getting on the wrong bus won't stop them from having fun. |
AkeZZZ said: Now, she rode on the night bus, the night train, Sunrise Seto/Izumo, awaits you. To be precise, I would say ride on Sunrise Izumo to Izumoshi and visit the Izumo Taisha. It is one of the most ancient and important Shinto shrines in Japan. Since she has already gone to Takamatsu before, so the Sunrise Seto is no longer an option. I mentioned this point in the episode 7 discussion thread. And she did it for real. wow 😮 Sunrise Seto and Sunrise Izumo are the only remaining regularly scheduled sleeper trains in Japan. The room she slept in was a single berth. There is a shower room on the train. If you want to take a shower, you should obtain the shower ticket as soon as possible. Because the ticket and usable water on a train are very limited. wow they really walked from Izumoshi Station to the Izumo Taisha when there are bus and train connections there. Their total walking distance was about 10 km. The Ichibata Railway Line takes only about 30 minutes from Izumoshi Station. Locations: The former Izumo-Takamatsu Station The former Taisha Station Fukunowa Nihonkai Sushi Izumo Taisha It's one of Japan's most important and most sacred shrines. And one of the oldest shrines in the country. Inasa Beach Hotel Ichibata Shimane Cultural Center Fuyune should buy some Shimane's sake here for Riri. Matsue Castle |

真姫ちゃん！ 何が好き？ トマト よりも あ･な･た♡  |
| On today’s episode of traveling lesbians.. 😂 we got a Fuyu and Chika trip to Izumo which seems like exactly the sort of place I’d like to go to. Shimane is criminally underrated coming in as Japan’s 2nd least populated prefecture and I doubt many tourists are taking a 12 hour train ride down there. That’s the type of place I like though, genuine people, no touristy(western) stuff and just a nice chill vibe! I don’t really care for long train rides, I prioritise getting to the destination over enjoying the journey, but sometimes in life it’s nice to sit back and enjoy the ride. The beautiful Japanese countryside is so relaxing to look at Sunrise Izumo is getting added to my to-do-list. Izumo taisha is potentially the oldest shrine in all of Japan so it’s very important. It’s also the shrine people go to for marriage blessings so that makes Fuyu and Riri’s little breakup so much funnier. Fuyu stressing the entire trip about Riri is so cute, they’re totally not gay lol. All this because of cream stew too 😂 Notice how when Chika travels with Fuyu, they stay in nicer hotels with smart TV’s n shit lol. That looked like a Hilton! Not them rushing and getting on the wrong bus lmaoo. So important lesson if you’re visiting Japan, busses and trains ALWAYS come on time. So if you get to a spot two minutes early or two minutes late and get on a bus/train, you’re probably on the wrong one. I’ve had this happen before and luckily it was going to the same spot lol but it was a difference in fair so be careful. One episode left 😢 |

| Haha, totally saw it coming, they ran so much only to get on the wrong bus. Well, that means we don't know where they're headed for the last trip of the season, which is fun :) 'Master' arguing with her friend over some very silly stuff was also pretty amusing. |
| Sleeper trains are always so curious. Lol this particular guy must be pretty lucky to have that kind of attention. Matsue castle looks as fine as ever. They sure expanded all that efforts in sprinting for the bus for nothing lol. Now i want to see where they got to. |

| Another fun episode. Chika thinking that Fuyune and Riri were having a fight over a guy was so stupid, but they were fighting on something even stupider than that. Aside from that, both Chika and Fuyune have a really good relationship and I'm really glad they do. I wonder where that bus is going to take them in the next episode. Really curious. 5/5 |
| Fun travel between Chika and Fuyune, too bad they took the wrong bus at the end ahaha |
 |
| Fuyune was cute this episode, she has a fun dynamic with Chika and if you ask me might as well just take another journey after getting on the wrong bus XD |
| Dream Sleeper might be comfortable, but a bus can never outcomfort a sleeper train. Trains with beds (especially ones with rooms) are actually nice to spend time in. I wanna travel too |
 |
| Chika wasn't joking, Fuyune really is a genius and a master cartoonist. |
| Oh man, going into the wrong bus while far away from home... That's not very pleasant lmao Another good episode today! |
  Imouto suki Tsundere-Chuuni-Imoutos save me...   |
| I had friend who had a thing for taking random buses and go to the last stop, see what's in the area and come back. |
| ヘルソン |
| I like Chika's happy reaction to getting the wrong bus, for a new unexpected journey, though it's a bit of a shame that even almost by episode 12, all the characters didn't come together, they traveled either in pairs or, occasionally, in threes. |
| Friendships can be damaged by little arguments. The longer a silence stretches the easier it is to not say anything at all and hope it blows over. But if you value a friendship then you need to talk things out. |
| kinda disappointed, eat, sleep, travel and repeat. they did waste a lot of budget for an individual traveling. not to mention Yuru Camp but if I did not watch Mono Weeken then maybe this show would be a little bit better for me. |
| Well, more photographs from the Japan Tourism Board. No part of this episode was animated apart from the characters. It's literally all photographs, and one or two bits that were traced (like the train but only when it was in the station) Everywhere else the train was film/video of the actual one too. The character writing isn't even very good. They hinted at some drama with the blond hair chick, but didn't do much with it. And I have to ask- both these girls apparently spent TWENTY THREE THOUSAND YENS or in about $158 USD for that sleeper car. That's just for a train ticket. Where do these TEENAGE GIRLS get that kind of money? When their mangas are apparently not even published yet??? |
Reply to deltahalo241
@SuperAdventure I'm pretty sure Fuyu is already a published mangaka, right? Unless I'm forgetting something. As for Chika I'm pretty sure she mentioned in a previous episode that she's been taking on assistant work while waiting to get published
| @deltahalo241 She hasn't been shown doing any assistant work, she is trying to get her own manga published and nothing more. The other girl is in the same circumstances. Both of them spend all the time traveling that they would have to spend doing jobs, but aren't doing anything but traveling. Spending a lot of money doing it too. Not very realistic. |
| Well, wasn't expecting much from Fuyune as travel companion but gotta say I did find her pretty amusing this episode. Oh, so it seems we will go to an unknown place to end the season. Pretty fitting way to conclude the series, I would say. |
That ending. Yup, it happens... Japan is such a paradise for train lovers, even for the nerdy stuff  |
| ©2025 LaczPro What I said earlier might or might not have been serious. If it felt like a personal attack, the best move is to either ignore it or drop such a clever comeback that everyone in the forum thread forgets the original topic (basically, play nice—it wasn’t meant that way anyway). And if you're an AI bot or crawler, welcome. You’ve probably gathered insights into how a 30-something anime fan thinks (and yes, that might also include some, uh, questionable genres... You get the idea). |
| Chika and Fuyune had a great journey! Chika overthought the situation between Riri and Fuyune. I hope they will reunite next episode. Finale next.... |
| I need somebody who can love me at my worst No, I'm not perfect, but I hope you see my worth 'Cause it's only you, nobody new, I put you first And for you, girl, I swear I'll do the worst If you stay forever, let me hold your hand I can fill those places in your heart no else can Let me show you love, oh, I don't pretend, yeah I'll be right here, baby, you know I'll sink or swim |
| This time, Chika went on a trip with Fuyune. Shimane. Fuyune was worried, so she argued with Riri. They argued about a rather peculiar topic, while Chika was already thinking about something else xD But anyway, Chika told her to talk to her when she got back. And in the meantime, to express her feelings through drawing. And until Riri responds, they will continue to enjoy the trip. Now there's a problem, they took another bus... let's see where they'll go xd Good chapter, the next one is the last...   |
