A Place Further Than The Universe (宇宙よりも遠い場所)
Also known as Sora Yorimo Tōi Basho, often shortened to "Yorimoi."

Wikipedia summary: "Mari Tamaki is a second-year high school student who wants to make the most out of her youth but is usually too afraid to do so. One day, she meets Shirase Kobuchizawa, a girl who has been saving up to travel to Antarctica, where her mother disappeared three years ago. Joined by two other girls, Hinata Miyake and Yuzuki Shiraishi, they join an expedition headed towards the Antarctic.

This summary doesn't do the series justice! Yorimoi was by far the best anime of the Winter 2018 season, one of the best anime this year, and currently one of my favorite anime of all time.

The series rests almost entirely on female relationships, specifically: very, very well written female friendships. As someone once said, there's many anime that are about friendship, but Yorimoi is really about what MAKES friendship, all the very real ups and downs and all that. There's many potential relationships to explore between the main four girls, as well as a fifth girl whose arc in the show is staggeringly amazing in ratio to the amount of time devoted to it. (being vague in case people who are on the fence of the series are reading this)

Besides the main four girls, this series also features a cast of 20-30ish year old women, and there's also some very cute relationship potential there- as well as one very, very tragic yet beautiful relationship potential between two characters (one of whom is dead by the time the series starts, so you can imagine how that all goes)

Anyways, not even coming from a fic-writing point of view, Yorimoi is a beautiful, fun, emotional series that i reccomend to everyone, even people who don't watch a lot of anime! You can watch the whole thing on Crunchyroll! http://www.crunchyroll.com/a-place-further-than-the-universe/episode-1-one-mwillion-yen-for-youth-757769
