Afro launched the manga in the Manga Time Kirara Forward magazine in 2015, and it currently has eight compiled volumes released. C-Station adapted the manga into a 12-episode TV anime that aired in Winter 2018. Additional anime adaptations have been announced since then, including the upcoming short anime, second season, and movie.
Yen Press licensed the manga series for North American release in 2017 under the title Laid-Back Camp. The publisher has since released seven volumes, with the eighth volume scheduled for March 3, 2020.
