About Rent-a-Girlfriend in brief

Crunchyroll licensed the series for worldwide release in both English subbed and dub versions. Here’s how the streaming giant describes the series:

"Kinoshita Kazuya is a 20-year-old failure of a college student. He managed to kiss his girlfriend once but was dumped after a month. 'Ugh... Damn it. I never want to go through that again.'oCompletely spiteful, Kazuya uses a certain method to date a girl."

It continues:

"He goes to their meeting place and suddenly hears, "You're Kazuya-kun, right?" A beautiful girl brushing her long, black hair behind her ear was there, smiling at him. Her name was Mizuhara Chizuru. Something real is born after just a single rental!

Reiji Miyajima’s Rent-a-Girlfriend manga’s anime adaptation was announced in December 2019. The first two seasons were helmed by Kazuomi Koga at studio TMS Entertainment, with Mitsuaka Hirota penning the scripts and Kanna Hirayama adapting the character designs into anime.

Shinya Une replaced Kazuomi Koga as the director of the third installment, and the rest of the staff members reprised their roles. Although there is yet to be an announcement regarding the release confirmation for Rent-a-Girlfriend season 4, it is expected that the entire cast and staff will again be returning to reprise their roles once more.
