In conjunction with the event, JR Central will sell special Laid-Back Camp one-day round-trip tickets, and a collaboration train will be decorated with illustrations from the series.

Social Media Messaging Curing Tape

Laid-Back Camp Curing Tape

Get your hands on one of two water-resistant curing tape designsーboth made in Japanーincluding one featuring Nadeshiko and the other characters chatting on social media. Like masking tape, curing tape has a whole range of uses whether for decorating or wrapping something. And since it’s water resistant, it can be used for decoration in bathrooms, with gardening tools, outdoor equipment, and so on. It also has weak adhesion and so will not damage surfaces.

Leather Key Rings – ¥2,750 Each (Tax Included)

The key rings are made from natural nume leather from Japan, come in a tear drop shape, and feature designs of the series characters: Nadeshiki, Rin, Chiaki, Aoi, and Saito. Each key ring comes in a box so is great as a gift for fans of the series.
