Suterare Seijo no Isekai Gohantabi - Kakure Sukiru de Camping Car wo Shoukan Shimashita -- Manga Review

[Summary from Mangadex] Rin Takanashi, a caregiver in her thirties, was unceremoniously discarded as "trash" despite being summoned as a saint. However, as a lover of the great outdoors and all things camping, she was blessed with a special skill, [Survival], as well as another unique skill! Thus, a riveting tale begins: one of sweat, tears, and insatiable hunger as Rin, together with companions she picked up along the way, leisurely explores this parallel world and savours gourmet cuisine to her heart's content… Or so the story should have gone, but it looks like their road is going in an unexpected direction…?

Basic Premise: Another isekai-cooking combo, with a focus on living out of a camper van.

My Review: This manga offers an interesting look at the rising popularity of camper vans and the concept of "glamping," but the plot is paper-thin. The main character doesn't demonstrate any unique character traits or any sort of individuality that distinguishes her from the thousands of other isekai protagonists in the market, and the side characters aren't much better than paper cutouts of tropes. The only part I can really say I enjoyed was how unique the recipes and cooking styles were, with the added comfort of the camper van and the expanded range of cooking techniques and options because of it.

Overall: It's nothing noteworthy, but it might be useful if you're looking to go on a trip with a camper van soon.
