Solo Camping for Two Manga Enters Hiatus Due to Author's Health

This year's 32nd issue of Kodansha's Morning magazine announced on Thursday Yūdai Debata's Solo Camping for Two (Futari Solo Camp) manga will enter a hiatus beginning with the next issue due to the author's health. The magazine did not give a planned date of return.

The manga follows a 34-year-old solo camper named Gen Kinokura who prefers his own company and no one else when camping. He encounters Shizuku Kusano, a 20-year-old absolute beginner at camping. The two somehow ended up "solo camping" together.

Debata launched the Solo Camping for Two manga in Kodansha's Evening magazine in 2018. The creator is currently serializing the manga in Kodansha's Morning magazine, and Kodansha published over 3 million copies so far. The company shipped the manga's 20th compiled volume on April 23.

The 45th Annual Kodansha Manga Awards nominated the manga in 2021.

The anime adaptation of the manga will debut on Tokyo MX on July 10, on BS Asahi and Nagasaki Culture Telecasting Corporation on July 11, and Yomiuri TV on July 15. Crunchyroll will stream the series as it airs.

The manga already inspired a live-action series that debuted on January 9.
