Osomatsu-san season 4 reveals July 2025 release date and theme songs with new PV

Osomatsu-san season 4 is set to return after a five-year break with the Matsuno sextuplets bringing their famous antics back to screens on July 8, 2025. The news delighted anime enthusiasts who are excited about the special musical lineup which includes the dance group DA PUMP along with emerging talent Hitomi.

This upcoming season maintains the irreverent humor and adult-oriented comedy that transformed Osomatsu-san into a classic series. It also promises to bring back the bold and unpredictable energy that made the franchise a standout success.

Fans who have followed the series since its inception will witness a revitalized blend of absurdity and humor along with emotional depth in this eagerly awaited return.

Musical powerhouse drives Osomatsu-san season 4's appeal

The major highlight of the Osomatsu-san season 4 announcement involves its daring selection of music. The popular boy band and dance group DA PUMP will present the opening theme Osomatsu-san no Bomba Sheeh! The track cleverly incorporates the iconic "Sheeh!" exclamation synonymous with the Matsuno brothers.

The track presents a Japanese-language adaptation of an international song with m.c.A・T writing the Japanese lyrics while the original song remains unknown. The ending theme Buddy pairs Hitomi from Atarayo with the voice actors playing the Osomatsu sextuplets to create a distinctive collaboration.

The closing number composed and lyrically penned by veteran Seiji Kameda delivers an emotionally impactful finale that stands in contrast to each episode's vigorous opening sequence.

Production team ensures continuity and quality

Osomatsu-san season 4 benefits from the return of key creative personnel who understand the series' distinctive comedic DNA. Yoshinori Odaka, who served as episode director for the first and third seasons and directed the Hipipo-Zoku film, takes the helm as director at Pierrot Films. His deep familiarity with the franchise ensures tonal consistency while potentially introducing fresh comedic elements.

The production retains its foundational creative team as Shū Matsubara resumes scriptwriting duties and Eiji Abiko returns to character design responsibilities. For a show with character-based jokes and visual comedy, it's essential to maintain a consistent creative team.

Takahahro Sakurai together with Yūichi Nakamura, Hiroshi Kamiya, Jun Fukuyama, Daisuke Ono, and Miyu Irino return to voice the six brothers which keep their vocal chemistry intact and support their character interactions.

On July 8 at midnight JST (which translates to July 9) the series will launch across TV Tokyo, TV Osaka, and TV Aichi following the franchise’s typical broadcast routine. The chosen late-night broadcast time slot allows for adult humor while keeping the show available to its main audience.

Osomatsu-san season 4 debuts after the franchise expanded through two recent movie releases during 2022 and 2023 and developed additional materials like Matsuinu spin-off shorts and exclusive fan club content. Continuous audience engagement confirms the franchise's lasting appeal and financial success while establishing high hopes for the upcoming season.

The return fans have been waiting for

Osomatsu-san season 4 announcement signals the awaited comeback of a cultural sensation that successfully updated traditional characters. The new season delivers on five years of fan anticipation by combining a creative team and a dynamic musical lineup featuring DA PUMP’s opening and an ending collaboration that delivers wild humor and emotional depth.

The show maintains its distinctive blend of ridiculous humor with meaningful character development as it prepares to recreate its initial allure while presenting unexpected elements. The fanbase looks forward to July when they will experience the next installment of chaos driven by six siblings.
