Campfire Cooking Season 2 — Cozy Isekai Food, New Faces
If you loved Mukouda’s uncanny ability to turn instant noodles and soy sauce into diplomacy, you’ll be thrilled: Campfire Cooking in Another World with My Absurd Skill is officially coming back for Season 2 this October, and it looks like the show will double down on what fans loved most — travel, weird monsters, and ridiculously delicious fantasy recipes. Below is a friendly, accurate breakdown you can drop into a blog post or use as your quick guide.
Season 1 introduced Tsuyoshi Mukouda, a mild-mannered salaryman accidentally summoned to another world with the laughably useful “Online Supermarket” skill. Rather than become a classic hero, Mukouda uses his modern-Japan food access to survive, befriend monsters (hi Fel), and quietly change local society one tasty meal at a time. The first season leaned heavily into slice-of-life warmth, creature design, and food porn — and that formula is exactly why fans demanded more.
What Season 2 will likely deliver
From the new trailers and PV highlights the production released, Season 2 is positioning itself it is fair to expect:
- Bigger culinary set-pieces. The PVs tease more inventive dishes and expanded “cooking as magic” moments — Mukouda’s Online Supermarket + fantasy ingredients = peak anime comfort food.
- New characters & familiars. The production has already teased additional cast and visuals (new familiar designs and side characters), which suggests Mukouda’s travel radius — and his menu — will grow. One teaser visual and press item specifically called out new designs like Dora (voice cast reveals followed the teaser).
- Travel & stakes without losing tone. The show’s heart is peaceful meals around the campfire; early footage implies Season 2 will keep that cozy tone even as the story explores new towns, guilds, and monster-butchering opportunities.
Social channels have been very hungry. The fandom has shared screenshots of the new key visuals, theorized which manga chapters Season 2 will adapt, and started recipe threads inspired by the show’s food. Reaction is enthusiastic but pragmatic — most fans want more cozy meals and hope production quality remains consistent for the bigger set pieces. Early PVs seem to have struck the right tone with that crowd.
So, mark your calendar for October 7, 2025 and plan to snack while you watch. Season 2 looks like a faithful expansion of what made the show charming in the first place, with bigger locations and more kooky monsters to feed.
