All alone after the end of days, two girls ride through the desolate ruins of Japan—but they're not about to let the collapse of civilization get in the way of sightseeing! From the hot springs of Hakone to the massive Tokyo Big Sight, they've got the run of the country's most popular tourist spots all to themselves, so why not make the most of it?
Saito launched the manga in Kadokawa's Dengeki Maoh magazine in September 2020. Kadokawa published the manga's seventh compiled book volume on March 27.
