About A Place Further Than the Universe

If you are hunting for a new adventure series, A Place Further Than the Universe (宇宙よりも遠い場所) deserves a look (2018). The setup goes like this. At its core: Mari Tamaki is in her second year of high school and aims to start something. It's then that she crosses paths with Shirase, a girl with few friends who's considered weirdo by the rest of the class and nicknamed "Antarctic" since it's all she ever talks about.

Beyond that: Unlike her peers, Mari is moved by Shirase's dedication and resolves that even though it's unlikely that high school girls will ever go to Antarctica, she's going to try to go with Shirase.

With adventure at the core, exploration, new locations and a steady sense of momentum drive the story. Mari Tamaki (Inori Minase) and Shirase Kobuchizawa (Kana Hanazawa) are two of the characters you will meet early. If you count yourself among anyone who enjoys travel-the-world storytelling, put it on your list. The run is 13 episodes in total, so you know what you are signing up for.
