Plot
Gen Kinokura, a 34-year-old man, loves solo camping and values quiet time alone in nature. During one of his usual trips, his peaceful routine is interrupted when Shizuku Kusano, a 20-year-old beginner with almost no camping experience, suddenly shows up at his campsite after getting lost and arriving unprepared. With no tent and no real knowledge of camping, she ends up relying on Gen for help.
Although Gen prefers to camp alone and initially wants nothing to do with her, he reluctantly teaches Shizuku basic camping skills so she can take care of herself. After this first encounter, Shizuku decides that Gen is the perfect person to learn from and begins showing up on his future camping trips. To deal with this, the two make an arrangement: they will camp together, but each of them will keep their own space and independence, as if they were solo camping. As they continue camping together, Shizuku gradually improves her skills, while Gen slowly warms up to having someone around.
