>本作の主人公。田舎が嫌いで、都会に憧れ、『特別な何か』になりたくて東京へ出てきたが、結局、自分が何をしたいのか見つけられぬまま。就職試験に30社落ち、就活に失敗するもひょんなことから、『ミニ独立国の国王』（観光大使）の仕事の依頼があり、間野山町へ。八方美人だけど、根は真面目。普通の女の子。その『普通』であることがコンプレックスでもある。

The story's main character. With a dislike of the countryside, she longs a life in the city, wanting to become "something special" by coming to Tokyo. However, in the end, she wasn't able to do the things she wants for herself. After failing 30 job examinations and on the verge of giving up, she finds a strange offer to become a "king of a mini-independent state" (aka a sightseeing ambassador) on Kannoyama (or Ainoyama) Village. She is an everybody's friend, but is actually just being true to herself. An "ordinary" girl, in the sense that "ordinary" is more complicated than it seems.

http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/news/2016-12-06/pa-works-makes-sakura-quest-anime-about-girls-reviving-rustic-town/.109589

>The story centers on five girls who work in the tourism bureau of their small provincial town. The town revives its "micro-nation" tourism program, which originated from a nationwide movement during Japan's bubble economy period, and hires the five girls as "monarchs" (tourism ambassadors). The anime will depict one year in their jobs in the tourism industry, and show how they change and grow.

>During the bubble economy in Japan, a micro-nation fad arose, where regions in Japan declared themselves "micro-nations" to revive tourism and industry in their region, starting with the "Shin Yamatai Koku" nation in 1977. The micro-nations coordinated with local governments and tourism bureaus, and some even had their own chambers of commerce. At its height, there were over 200 such micro-nations in Japan.

The composite in PA Works anime are fine. The visuals for their anime never look like the actual show either.

But despite the butthurt generated by that bitch:
1) They provide cheap-ass housing, train pass and meals to their employees (she still had a few man left after all that got reducted, though I guess most of you fucks didn't bother to read that), meaning that what was shown as what she earns was in fact get disposable income (maybe minus clothes and supper).
2) she's technically a freelancer, but still gets a workplace for free for 3 (? I don't remember exactly) years. Only if after so much time she's still unable to pass the animator test do they start to deduct some of her pay. It's probably more of an indirect way to let some inbetweeners know that they are just not good enough for the industry.

All early twenties but Lipstick, probably no older than 24. It'd be too weird for them to be any older, especially with those designs.

PA Works is getting really transparent about being funded by tourism bureaus.

shit will flop

Original anime, original character, original voices.

Well-known VAs are burdened with their typecast.

Mizushima has more flops to his name than successes.

I'm sorry but Blood C, Another, and Mayoiga are pure kino

Plebs like you don't understand

Do any of these "come back to rural towns gaiz pls" anime actually work?

I know it would work on me, I just need an internet connection to survive.

>BUNBUN
into the trash

>>150639190
If my family happened to have a fucking mansion on the rural area or some random townsfolk that give me all supplies I need for free like they do in these shows, sure, it would work.

Seeing that image, my first thought was that she's trying to become mayor of a small country town (the crown, the youkoso banner) but I doubt that's it.
