DoubleSama | Anime ReviewsThe world-building in Touring After the Apocalypse was one of the most disappointing parts of the anime. Rather than exploring their world, Youko and Airi are constantly exploring ours. I can do that myself.
It's pretty clear that the author of Touring After the Apocalypse was more interested in the touring part of the series than the post-apocalypse part. Unfortunately, the opposite is true for me, and I was left wanting more world-building than I got.
Touring After the Apocalypse was not the spiritual successor to Girls' Last Tour that I wanted. It was a lot more like a combination of Super Cub and Yuru Camp, but also worse than both of those.

Toward the end of Touring After the Apocalypse Episode 12, we see that the video of Youko's "big sister" says "LIVE." Does this mean she's actually still alive somewhere in the world? Or is this just a mistake?

In Touring After the Apocalypse Episode 12, we get to see what life was like for Youko and Airi before they left the bunker to go on their grand adventure. And from what we saw, it was a surprisingly normal life.

Closet WeebFinal thoughts on this anime season:
Best in Season: May I Ask For One Final Thing? Absolute cinema this. I love Scarlet. I love Sanya-sama. I loved the two masochistic (albeit in very different ways) princes vying for Scarlet's affections. Solid 4.5/5 would watch again. Buying this on bluray when I can.
Worst in Season: GNOSIA. I can only imagine that James Beckett over at ANN must've been charmed by Terrenezza, or be a GNOSIA himself, to not tear this piece of trash to shreds like it so richly desserves. I will give GNOSIA credit for one thing though: its sheer stupidity caused me to stick out Mugen Gacha just to see which show was worse, but lo and behold Mugen Gacha actually got better. I'll give it half a star for the gender ambiguity of some characters, I guess.
Unexpected Dark Horse: Mugen Gacha, aka Backstabbed in a Backwater Dungeon. I absolutely hated episode 2 of this show, to the point where I nearly dropped it. But I decided hey, why not make it a game and see which is worse, GNOSIA or this? Cue surprise when Mugen Gacha turned into a fun, cathartic, unapologetic revenge fantasy that managed to have more heart than something like this desserves, and certainly more intelligence than GNOSIA. I mentioned before, I can respect a show that knows what it is and embraces it without pretense, and that is certainly true of Mugen Gacha. 3.5 stars.
The Cutest of Cutes: It's a tough call between Alma-Chan Wants to Be A Family and Reincarnator, but I have to give it to Alma-chan because I just happen to love autistic blue smols. Both shows were very therapeutic for me during the past couple months, which have been very stressful for me. Both get 3.5 stars.
"Chichi wa Eiyuu, Haha wa Seirei, Musume no Watashi wa Tenseisha": The second cutest-of-cutes. Crossover with Alma-chan when? 3.5 stars.
Shuumatsu Touring: It's like Girls Last Tour but not as good. Airi is cute as heck tho. 3 Stars.
A Manga-ka's Yuriful Workplace: I expected GAY. GAY was delivered. Satisfied. Solid 3.5 stars.
Towa no Yuugure: In the post-apocalypse, people will be polyamorous and pansexual, androids will be able to have sex, get drunk, and sometimes not even know they're androids, slaves will have barcodes on their butts, and a man will go on a quest to find his 200 year-old girlfriend. It was fun, I guess. Would I have kept it had there been more good shows this season? I dunno. 3/5.

Touring After the Apocalypse Episode 12 concludes the anime without ever giving me the information I wanted most about the world. I guess I'll have to read the manga for that (I won't).
