The Photography Club staved off dissolution

by becoming the Cinephoto Club,

so we'd better get cracking and take lots of photos and videos!

Crackin', crackin', get those photos crackin'.

Hello.

Crack.

MADE FRESH

TSUKA POTATO SALTY CHICKEN FLAVOR

Amamiya. I hear you took some night photographs of the science museum.

Yeah, I got some good ones.

I'd like to take some more night photos too.

That's cool.

Oh, I'd also like to get some shots from up high.

Like from the top of a mountain.

-Maybe Mount Fuji? -This is great!

-Sounds good. -Yeah. Yeah!

Hooray!

You know, Sacchan,

you can actually see the view from Mount Fuji in Goolugoolu Maps in VR.

MOUNT FUJI

Really?

Achievement unlocked!

ACHIEVEMENT UNLOCKED

Why not upload a photo

taken with your 360-degree camera to Goolugoolu Maps?

I can do that?

Yeah.

You do see user photos uploaded to the maps.

So, that means I can do it too. I'll give it a try later.

Hey, Shikishima. What sort of photos would you like to take?

I like abandoned buildings.

You're a ruins junkie?

One of the Cinema Club members used to love abandoned buildings,

and I'd often see their photos.

Wow.

Oh, but are you allowed to just go inside them if they're abandoned?

That's trespassing, so no.

The members would go on special abandoned building tours.

Abandoned building tours?

The story goes that someone tried to explore one abandoned building on a whim,

and they stepped on a piece of rotten flooring and fell all the way through.

A REGULAR OLD ABANDONED BUILDING

So now, the building is also known for being haunted.

NOW A HAUNTED ABANDONED BUILDING

-I'll steer clear of that! -I'll steer clear of that!

Maybe some large structures instead of abandoned buildings then?

Any examples?

Maybe, the Kurobe Dam in Tateyama or the Super-Kamiokande.

Wow.

Maybe, the Metropolitan Area Outer Underground Discharge Channel.

You can actually already see all of those structures in VR.

ACHIEVEMENT UNLOCKED

But we want to take our own photos.

What do you want to take photos of, Kiriyama?

Me? Let's see.

Maybe the zoo, or the botanical gardens,

or a botanical aviary.

And take photos of Sacchan in those places.

-From head to toe! -Nice!

-You voyeur? -Lovely!

And we have an action camera, so I'd like to take some videos as well.

Me too.

Hey, Sacchan. Have you seen Ms. Haru's motovlog yet?

Oh, I did!

I loved it.

I TRAVELED 2,000 KM TO VISIT A CLASSMATE (PART 11)

I'd love to get some helmet-cam footage of things as well.

Full speed ahead! Go, go, go!

TRAFFIC SAFETY

Hey, speaking of Ms. Haru, she's not here right now.

I wonder where she is?

Oh, she's out getting a refresher driving course.

Refresher driving course?

It's like a brushup.

You know how terrible of a driver she is.

You're right! She drives like she's the bad guy in a getaway car!

She said she wants to gather material for her manga.

She wants to draw in a way that will make her readers

want to visit those places.

Oh, my gosh! What was that scrape? I just scratched something!

Ms. Akiyama, it's fine. You need to calm down.

But why the sudden change of heart?

It's not like lazybones manga artist Ms. Haru to be so motivated.

You got that right.

How right you are.

Perhaps that trip she had with her friend not too long ago

SHICHIKEN

sparked something within her.

Sorry, I should take this.

HOUBUNSHA - MS. SHIMADA

Ms. Shimada?

Well, it'll be good to feel safe while she's driving.

Right on.

I'm home!

-Oh, Ms. Haru! Welcome back. -Look who's back!

Hello.

Wow, all three of you are here!

This is perfect.

Are you free this weekend?

-Yeah, I'm free. -And me.

Me too.

Here you are, Haruno.

Oh, thank you!

I'm going on a real weekend-long manga pilgrimage!

MANGA PILGRIMAGE TOUR

Manga?

Pilgrimage?

Sure.

What's a manga pilgrimage?

I just got a call from the publishing house.

Our Yamanashi camping manga

is getting an anime adaptation next spring.

What say you write a piece on the locations featured in the manga?

That sounds lovely, but are you sure you want me to do it?

I mean, you live in Yamanashi, so I thought you'd be perfect for the job.

Okay. I'll do it.

Thank you so much!

I'll send you the draft and the list of locations.

Okay. I'll check them out right away.

Whoa! Oh, my gosh!

SECRET LAKE

Wow, would you look at that!

Mount Fuji is so clear today!

This is Lake Motosu

where the main character meets the girl who likes camping

and they start camping together.

Hey, what's wrong? Aren't you gonna take a photo of Mount Fuji?

I mean, it's…

Always just outside.

No need for a photo of that.

So this is what happens when you grow up with a marvel as commonplace.

ORIGINALLY FROM MIE ZERO APPRECIATION

-Oh, you're right. -I think it's over there.

Wow! They've got a trampoline!

MOTOSU CENTRAL LODGE KOAN

This building is the same one from the manga.

Look, they've got one of the volumes here.

Wow!

They said we can visit the campsite.

Man, it's packed.

Well, it is summer.

Sparkle sparkle.

Okay, you guys! Time for the next location!

What? Already?

Aren't we going through them a little too fast, Ms. Haru?

There's a lot to see in just two days.

MANGA PILGRIMAGE TOUR

Asagiri Plateau, the Nambu area,

Minobu Station, Lake Shibire, the Minami Alps,

Fuefuki Park, Mount Kirigamine.

Don't tell me we're visiting all of them?

We sure are.

"Right Before It Becomes an Anime!! The Anime Pilgrimage Stamp Rally…

With a Schedule from Hell!"

I thought I'd write a story on it.

-Hell? -All right.

Our next stop is the Asagiri Plateau Campsite.

It's a lot bigger than I thought it'd be.

Apparently they even do events and festivals here.

And they even have little Shiba dogs here.

Okay, guys! Next one!

Already?

We're backtracking a little for this next one.

It's the house where our main camper character lives.

She's meant to ride her bike up this hill to Lake Motosu.

That crazy girl must really love leg day.

Ms. Haru, take a right here.

Okay!

This is the right spot, but…

Not exactly fitting for a main character.

More like some creepy ghost.

SHIMOBE FLOOD WAREHOUSE

Well, this is a little disappointing.

Everything else has been just like it was in the manga.

IT LOOKED LIKE THIS IN THE MANGA

I think it's for the best.

Real people wouldn't want lookie-loos lurking around where they live.

I guess that's true.

MINOBU MANJU

Wow, Ms. Haru. You've really gotten better at driving.

I practiced extra hard just for this.

I didn't even crash into that many things as I was practicing.

-Don't say it. She's gotten better. -Oh, boy, did that come as a shock! But…

But her posture leaves something to be desired.

PLEASE DRIVE WITH THE CORRECT POSTURE
