Camping just isn’t the same without good food and good company, and Curry Meshi is here to provide both in a new official collaboration with Laid-Back Camp.

The first stage of the campaign features Rin and Nadeshiko with the Curry Meshi-kun mascot in a music video for “Easy Life, Easy Curry -Song of Curry Meshi-” by Asaka, who performed the opening theme for both seasons of the Laid-Back Camp TV anime:

Starting tomorrow, Rin and Nadeshiko, voiced by Nao Touyama and Yumiri Hanamori, will narrate Curry Meshi-kun’s progress across three mini-episodes of “Special Solo Camping.”

In a Twitter retweet/follow campaign, 30 lucky entrants will win a compact grill, an essential piece of laid-back camping equipment, bearing a print of Rin and Nadeshiko:

And finally, those who purchase two valid Curry Meshi products at participating stores can receive this Curry Meshi x Laid-Back Camp place mat (while stocks last):

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.
