Had a post about two weeks ago for Minami but will be having another soon too featuring many of her Nogi activities from this year along with hopefully some new items. Do have to say I've really been enjoying this latest 'Nogi 46 Hours TV' show more then their others, think this was the group's third one? Seems there was more individual segments and the ones I've viewed have all been quite good though I wish they were a tad longer, today's lasted 12:40. Think Minami may have done another solo segment along with a few others paired up with more members but don't think they'll be subbed, Beam Subs has been doing most of these segments.
As was the case for the other segments recapped won't be going into too much detail and will be letting the screenshots speak for themselves. But didn't take as many for this segment, 49 which is a lot for a 12 minute period but the others were all 60+. For her special segment Minami took a camping trip and traveled to Okutama which is in the extreme western part of Tokyo. It's the largest area in the city and also has it's highest mountain though not many people reside there as it's mainly an area for vacationing, really looked like it was far outside of Tokyo.
This segment obviously wasn't filmed live and she had to cram a lot of camping into 12+ minutes. Of all places for Minami to travel to the camping site was called the Kawai Campsite in the town's.... Umezawa area which is truly the name of the location but don't think it was named after Minami. There was no time for small talk with only twelve minutes so Minami went right into having fun(?). Her agenda was to do four things which of course would have taken much longer than twelve minutes as she was far from being an expert camper but did catch on rather quickly.
Building a tent turned out to be the most difficult of her goals and bet it took a half hour or so though we only saw bits of it. Minami's major problem was hammering the six stakes into the ground which mainly was because she was using the wrong hammer. At 170 cm she's Nogi's biggest member so if she had a hard time what would any other gal have done? Eventually she was successful and never looked as though she had help in any of her endeavors. The tent was erected successfully but with one minor snag as she forgot to put a sheet under the tent first which she didn't notice until it was finished, made for a very hard floor.
Making a fire should have been the hardest task according to some graphics as it's almost impossible for a newbie camper to do. But it didn't take Minami all that long to create a fire and she tried the method that cavemen did by using a flint to make a spark. The flint was a modern one but I was impressed that she was able to get a fire going using one, seems she was quite shocked too that she was able to get a fire going which will lead into her next item on the agenda.
It's food time(!) which is what Mianmi was looking forward to more than any other activity. And she brought a huge amount with her, so much she should have asked Nao to join her! There's a few good cooks I've noticed in Nogi over the years from their other variety shows and Minami certainly ranks up there. She created a few dishes and does food cook that quickly under a camp fire? Those bananas covered in chocolate looked yummy and as you can see she called a pair of her mates from Nogi.
Making food was third on the list but unfortunately there wasn't time for the final goal which was to put up a hammock and sleep in it. Shame this segment was only 12:40 in length as she traveled all the way there and yet only had a brief time to do everything. Hopefully more of Minami's adventure was taped so it can be shown on some future Nogi show. Plenty more screenshots here from her fun day and after this post is another segment from the special show that aired from June 19th to the 21st.
