The official website for the anime of Laid-Back Camp Movie) on Thursday. Unlike the more rustic landscape of the first visual, the new visual features Rin Shima taking a walk past skyscrapers at night, her warm breath visible in the chilly air.
The film staff is posting a series of "candid photo visuals" of the characters in their daily life before the film opens. The first visual features Nadeshiko Kagamihara hanging out a sleeping bag and blankets to dry on her veranda.

- Director: Yoshiaki Kyougoku
- Script: Mutsumi Ito
- Character Design: Mutsumi Sasaki
- Production: DeNA Contents Planning Department
- Animation Production: C-Station
Afro said that the staff checked back with the manga creator at nearly every step of the production from the earliest script draft and designs. The creator noted that the characters are a little bit older as well as the personal anticipation at seeing what even Afro has not seen yet. Director Yoshiaki Kyougoku thanked the fans for their which made this film happen, and joked about once again going location-scouting and eating delicious camp food while making anime.
Shochiku is distributing the film, which will open early this summer.
The anime adapts Afro's "slow outdoor manga" which follows two young women. Rin likes to go camping by herself along the lakes that provide a scenic view of Mt. Fuji. Nadeshiko loves to take cycling trips by herself to places where she can see Mt. Fuji. After they meet, Rin and Nadeshiko take camping trips, eat cup ramen together, and enjoy the scenery.
The first anime announced the movie in an October 2018 event.
Afro launched the manga in releasing the manga in English in March 2018.
