Laid-Back Camp Movie (Japanese: 映画 ゆるキャン△, Hepburn: Eiga Yurukyan),[a] also known as Yuru Camp Movie, is a 2022 Japanese animated film based on the manga series Laid-Back Camp by Afro. Produced by C-Station and distributed by Shochiku, the film is directed by Yoshiaki Kyogoku from an original story written by Jin Tanaka and Mutsumi Ito. In the film, a grown-up Nadeshiko Kagamihara, Rin Shima, Chiaki Ōgaki, Aoi Inuyama, and Ena Saitō reunite to build a campsite.

The film was included in a project pitched by producer Shōichi Hotta to animation producer Ryoji Maru after accepting it from FuRyu. The film was announced in October 2018, with Kyogoku, Tanaka, Ito, and character designer Mutsumi Sasaki confirming their return from two seasons of Laid-Back Camp in April 2021. Yumiri Hanamori, Nao Tōyama, Sayuri Hara, Aki Toyosaki, and Rie Takahashi were confirmed in October 2021 to be reprising their voice roles from the anime television series, with their characters going to be matured in the film. Additional staff and cast for the film were revealed in March and June 2022, respectively.

Laid-Back Camp Movie had a screening in Tokyo on June 19, 2022, and was released in Japan on July 1. The film grossed over $8 million worldwide.

Plot

[edit]

High school students Nadeshiko Kagamihara, Rin Shima, Chiaki Ōgaki, Aoi Inuyama, and Ena Saitō, along with the Outdoor Activities Club adviser Minami Toba and Ena's pet dog Chikuwa, go on camping at New Year's Eve, during which they discuss camping again in the future as adults. Years later, Rin, a magazine editor in Nagoya, is visited by Chiaki, who has begun working at Yamanashi Prefecture's tourism promotion organization recently. While in an izakaya, Chiaki mentions working on a redevelopment plan for an abandoned facility in the prefecture when Rin suddenly suggests building a campsite on its vast space. Chiaki then drags Rin to Fujikawa, where they visit the abandoned Fuji River Youth Nature Center. Nadeshiko arrives from Tokyo after receiving a message from Chiaki inviting her, Aoi, and Ena to meet up there. Following a crab hot pot at Nadeshiko's house and Aoi's arrival, Chiaki reveals her plan to build a campsite and assigns everyone's role, including Ena who is not present due to her work.

They begin to cut overgrown grasses and branches on the campground. At the end of that day, they lay out the features to be built and discuss their campsite's concept. Rin offers help in collecting ideas since she is going to visit the campsites that she visited during high school as part of her magazine. Afterward, Chiaki gets the green light from her supervisor to begin her campsite project. They celebrate the year-end holiday first before starting the project next year. Resuming the campsite building the following year, Chiaki reveals that the deadline to finish the project is about six months. The following week, Nadeshiko and Chiaki respectively bring an excavator and a mower to hasten their work. After renovating the facility, Rin, Nadeshiko, Chiaki, Aoi, and Ena go on camping there for a trial. Chikuwa later presents to the group a mysterious shrapnel that it has dug.

After their trial camping, Chiaki informs the group that an investigation is set to take place on the campsite due to the shrapnel being connected to buried earthenware found in the prefecture. Sometime later, she informs the group that the prefecture has decided to suspend their project to turn the facility into an archaeological site. They later decide to rework their campsite project by incorporating the archaeological site to it as an attraction to campers, resulting in approval from the prefecture. Sometime later, the campsite, now named Fujikawa Matsubokkuri Camp Base, has been opened. On its opening day, the visitors get lost on their way to the campsite due to missing direction signs, prompting Rin to guide them with her old Vino scooter. With the visitors enjoying the campsite, the group decides to hold another New Year's Eve camping.

Development

[edit]

Producer Shōichi Hotta approached animation producer Ryoji Maru with a "big new" project, which included a film, after accepting an offer from FuRyu in July 2018 to lead a sequel project for the first season of Laid-Back Camp.[10] In October 2018, the film was announced at the Yuru Camp Secret Society Blanket Enrollment Explanation Meeting event in Saitama Prefecture.[11] In April 2021, it was announced that C-Station would return to produce the film from the series, with Shochiku serving as the distributor.[12] Rie Takahashi, the voice actress for Ena Saitō in two seasons of the anime series, confirmed on her Twitter account that the announcement of the film's release date on April Fool's Day was "not a joke".[13] Including in the announcement was a concept visual from a storyboard drawn by director Yoshiaki Kyogoku, which shows a matured Nadeshiko Kagamihara and Rin Shima and a catchphrase saying, "I am from now on." (これからも、わたしだ。, Korekara mo, watashida.)[14]

Pre-production

[edit]

In April 2021, staff from two seasons of Laid-Back Camp were confirmed to be returning for the film, including Kyogoku as the director, Jin Tanaka and Mutsumi Ito as scriptwriters, and Mutsumi Sasaki as the character designer.[15] This is Kyogoku's first anime film that he has directed.[16] In October 2021, Yumiri Hanamori, Nao Tōyama, Sayuri Hara, Aki Toyosaki, and Takahashi were announced to be reprising their respective voice roles from the anime series as Nadeshiko, Rin, Chiaki Ōgaki, Aoi Inuyama, and Ena.[17] Laid-Back Camp manga creator Afro hinted that the characters are a "little bit older" in the film.[18] He also revealed that the script, settings, and other aspects of the film were created from scratch as Kyogoku and his team collaborated with him in every step of its production.[17]

Kyogoku wanted "to see more of the five [characters] [as adults]" after a brief scene in the final episode of the anime series' first season in which Nadeshiko imagines the five of them as adults.[19] He originally planned for them "to have a campsite on a slightly larger scale, or to have a campsite in a different location", but he ended up with the idea of "build[ing] a campsite" since "it was something that only adults could do".[20] One of the campsites facilitated by Minobu Nature Village (みのぶ自然の里, Minobu Shizen no Sato) was used as a filming location.[21] According to Hanamori, the film takes place 10 years after the events of her character's high school years, while Kyogoku stated that her character's age is in the "mid-20s".[22]

Post-production

[edit]
Official logo of the film

The logo of Laid-Back Camp Movie was revealed in March 2022.[23] In the same month, additional staff for the film were revealed, including Miho Imoto and Noriko Tsutsumiya as prop designers, Yoshimi Umino as the art director, Hiroaki Tanaka as the cinematographer, and Takeshi Takadera as the sound director.[5] Additional cast for the film were revealed in June 2022, including Tomoyo Kurosawa as Ayano Toki, Shizuka Itō as Minami Toba, Marina Inoue as Sakura Kagamihara, Risae Matsuda as Akari Inuyama, Nozomi Yamamoto as Shizuka Kagamihara, Shintarō Ōhata as Shūichirō Kagamihara, Kaori Mizuhashi as Saki Shima, Takahiro Sakurai as Wataru Shima, Kentarō Tone as Kariya, Yutaka Aoyama as an editor-in-chief, Natsu Yorita as store manager Komaki, and Yōji Ueda as Shirakawa, with Akio Otsuka returning as the narrator.[8]

Tōyama revealed that the film used "movie" (映画, eiga) instead of "the movie" (劇場版, gekijōban) in the title so that viewers could "enjoy the [film] as a stand-alone work, not as a [film] that can only be enjoyed by those who have seen the TV series."[24] Kyogoku also described the film as a "stand-alone film", stating that it was "neither an extension nor an expansion of the TV series."[25] In September 2022, Maru revealed that he made a cameo appearance in the film.[26]

Music

[edit]

In March 2022, Akiyuki Tateyama was revealed to be composing Laid-Back Camp Movie after previously doing so for the two seasons of Laid-Back Camp anime series and its spin-off Room Camp (2020), while Asaka and Eri Sasaki were also revealed as the performers of the opening theme music, titled "Sun Is Coming Up", and the ending theme music, titled "Mimosa" (ミモザ), respectively.[27] Sasaki came up with the title of the ending theme music when she received a bouquet of mimosa flowers from the owner of her favorite flower shop where they filmed its music video.[28] The original soundtrack and the two theme music were released in Japan by Mages on June 29, 2022.[27]

Critical response

[edit]

The Japanese review and survey firm Filmarks placed Laid-Back Camp Movie third in their first-day satisfaction ranking, with an average rating of 4.02/5, based on 997 reviews.[60]

Hinataka of Netorabo praised the film for its "carefully spun" story, "funny and comedic" elements, the production that "looks great on the theater screen", and depiction of a working adult setting.[66] Giving the film 4 out of 5 stars for the South China Morning Post, James Marsh felt that "there is something undeniably soothing about the entire experience, a downshift into a serene state of static existence that proves an undeniably gratifying escape from the daily grind." He noted the film might be a "hard sell" to first-time viewers since nothing major happened in the story, except for anything related to camping.[67] Writing for Crunchyroll, Alicia Haddick felt the film was "accessible to newcomers and long-term fans alike, with a genuinely touching message about reconnecting with your passions and never losing sight of what you love." She found Rin and Nadeshiko had the "most time to grow" in the film and the supporting cast being "pushed aside".[68] Kim Morrissy of Anime News Network graded the film "B", feeling that it "serves up an extra generous helping of mellow adventures with this two-hour installment, which is great for anyone who wants to see more of the characters, although it might also perhaps be too much of a good thing." Morrissy praised the "[n]uanced and understated writing and presentation" and how the film explored the responsibilities of being an adult, while criticized the long runtime for a simple plot.[69]

In December 2022, Laid-Back Camp Movie placed fifth among the top 20 Japanese animated films voted by fans to win the Anime of the Year at Tokyo Anime Award Festival 2023.[70] That month, Animate Times ranked the film 18th on their poll for the top 20 animated films of 2022.[71]
