The third season of Laid-Back Camp will mostly feature the same cast of characters as the previous seasons. There are some new minor characters but for the most part, the viewers will get to see the adventures and interactions between the characters that we all know and love.

There’s the energetic Chiaki, the president of the Outdoor Activities Club. And let’s not forget about Aoi and Ena, the rowdy and lovable members of the OAC.
