Touring After the Apocalypse
Oshimeter
Synopsis
The world as we knew it is gone, but the sightseeing doesn't stop. Youko, a human girl, and Airi, an android, ride a solar-powered motorcycle through the overgrown ruins of Japan, visiting places like Hakone's hot springs and Tokyo Big Sight, not to scavenge or survive some desperate quest, but just to see them. They take photos, set up camp in abandoned towns, and share quiet moments in a world where they might be the only ones left. This 12-episode TV series from Studio Nexus is based on a seinen manga, and it nails a very specific mood: that peaceful melancholy of exploring somewhere beautiful that's clearly been forgotten. The post-apocalyptic landscapes are gorgeous, nature reclaiming highways, vines crawling over skyscrapers, and the show takes its time letting you soak it all in. There's no big villain, no ticking clock. The tension comes from smaller things: finding fuel, navigating collapsed roads, and the unspoken question of what it means for a human and an android to keep each other company when there's no one else around. If you liked Girls' Last Tour, this is the closest thing you'll find to that same contemplative energy. Fans of Kino's Journey will appreciate the episodic travel structure, and if Made in Abyss hooked you with its world-building but you want something gentler, this fits. It's wholesome, atmospheric, and quietly moving, the kind of show you watch before bed and think about after.

A serene episode focused on exploration. No major revelations or happenings. Just exploring and enjoying the nature around. Yoko's physic-like dreams are getting more focus, raising even more questions that haven't been answered. And Airi is not a romantic, after all.
A touching episode. And somewhat an advertisement for Honda, I feel, haha. As beautiful as nature reclaiming the Earth is, the vibrant life of people is certainly missing in a post apocalyptic setting, and this episode encapsulates that well.
Chill episode with a chill pacing. Yoko and Airi explores another aspect of the pre apocalyptic world, looking back on the past. Episode started out chill and maintained a chill pace throughout with no major surprises, but what happened was enough for what they were aiming.

The first episode establishes a quiet mystery—why are they alone? Lush visuals of green trees, animals, and flowers create a calm, untouched world. Their carefree exploration, like enjoying a hot spring, feels liberating, yet subtle loneliness hints at a deeper, hidden mystery.
A more tension filled episode. I wasn't expecting a more action-packed tone. The storm makes for a great backdrop for the episode. The use of darkness to blend in with the CGI was a good way to hide technical limitations. Episode was well paced from beginning to end.
The post apocalypse isn't all sunshine and rainbows. Sometimes it can be, well, apocalyptic. Mother nature is scary and this episode reminds us of it. A somewhat sobering reminder that traveling across the country isn't just good vibes and nice scenery.
