This isn't a normal slice of life. I don't even think it should be considered one. It has such a unique story and premise, and is very inspirational. I mean how many shows out there are about going to Antarctica? Instantly top 5 anime for me, this show has everything. Good story, well written characters, funny, and some genuinely deep moments, and it'll even make you tear up. Almost a perfect anime. Hell, maybe it is perfect, idk. But this one is gonna stick with me for sure.

[@Zalure]

I'm gonna put it to you like this. This show is as close to perfect as you can get. A real shame this flew under the radar during Winter 2018 because it's easily one of the best of 2018 and for me personally only bested by Skilled Teaser Takagi-san for 2018.

What are you talking about? It was a pretty big hit and even the NY Times put it on their watch list.

[@yobud11]

yotsubafanfan well he’s not wrong.. the way that “i check” to see if an anime did really good is with the number of youtube views for their anime openings, and this one doesn’t have that many views to be considered a BIG hit. I agree with zalure that this kinda stayed under the radar tbh

[@cyrenarkade]

@@yobud11 This anime had many songs other than the op, and the views are probably shared across all of them. For an anime with 1 op and 1 ed, all the views will be concentrated there.

In this OP the sun is setting towards the right side (1:12), which is wrong for the Southern Hemisphere. In the following openings (I guess ep 3 and on) they corrected this short sequence and put the sun setting towards the left side, as it actually happens.

This is the most beautiful anime I've ever seen, every single episode after episode 2 had me crying by the end. A lot of what the main girls do and talk about is stuff I dreamed of doing when I was a kid but never ended up pursuing. Riding an Icebreaker, going to the arctic, and seeing the Aurora Borealis. I never thought I'd have any regrets but this anime reminded me that the childhood dream I once was so passionate about achieving is still there somewhere and 23 years in I regret not chasing it when I had the chance.
