#Laid-Back Camp Movie Gets New Visual and Commercial

The upcoming Laid-Back Camp movie has received a new commercial and a visual depicting protagonist Nadeshiko in an everyday life situation. The movie is set to premiere in Japan in early Summer. 

The first and second seasons of Laid-Back Camp aired in 2018 and 2021 respectively, while a spin-off called Heya Camp aired in 2020. The anime is based on the manga by Afro, which began in 2015 and has 12 tankoubon volumes as of April 2021. The manga is published by HOUBUNSHA under the Manga Time KR Comics label.

Crunchyroll describes the series as:

Nadeshiko, a high school student who had moved from Shizuoka to Yamanashi, decides to see the famous, 1000 yen-bill-featured Mount Fuji. Even though she manages to bike all the way to Motosu, she’s forced to turn back because of worsening weather. Unable to set her eyes on her goal, she faints partway to her destination. When she wakes up, it’s night, in a place she’s never been before, with no way of knowing how to get home. Nadeshiko is saved when she encounters Rin, a girl who is out camping by herself. This outdoorsy girls story begins with this first encounter between Nadeshiko and Rin.

The Laid-Back Camp movie’s staff includes Yoshiaki Gyougoku as director, Jin Tanaka and Mutsumi Itou as scriptwriters, and Mutsumi Sasaki as character designer, with all four having previous involvement with the franchise. C-Station is in charge of the animation production.
