One of the most surprising standouts of 2020 was the romantic comedy series “Rent-a-Girlfriend” and now it is back with another season to elevate its popularity.
After a two-year break, fans will finally get to see Kazuya back in action with his rented girlfriends as the anime has just confirmed its second season.
In all honesty, Rent-A-Girlfriend has always been a strong candidate for renewal. The manga is extremely popular and has become one of the best-selling slice-of-life titles of the modern era.
The first season also started quite strong and attracted a lot of new fans, including those that have not read the manga before. This is why the confirmation of a second season did not come as a surprise for me.
Rent-A-Girlfriend Season 2 Release Date
Rent-A-Girlfriend season 2 anime has been confirmed to premiere on 2 July 2022. Crunchyroll streamed season 1 of the anime and is likely to stream the upcoming season.
Season 2 will probably have 12 episodes like that of the first season.

Key Visuals
A cheerful Sumi Sakurasawa on a date at an aquarium gets portrayed in the first visual. She is happy at the sight of penguins surrounding her as she claps her hand.
The second teaser visual depicts the four heroines – Chizuru Mizuhara, Mami Nanami, Ruka Sarashina, and Sumi Sakurasawa in adorable poses.
The illustration shows Chizuru holding a churro on an amusement park date.
A heart-pounding scene from Rinatsu’s cafe date, as she serves you the pancake with a cute smile is presented in the bove visual.
A bashful Asami can be seen in the last character visual. She is tucking her hair behind her ear, melting your heart as you gaze into her eyes.
Kazuya and Sumi get featured in the first trailer as they go out on a date. A piece of melodious music hits the background while Sumi is seen with various emotions as the date goes by.
The second teaser starts with the anime’s main female characters, i.e., Kazuya’s love interests, calling out his name endearingly. After that, a distressed Kazuya is shown trying to figure out the various romantic affairs he’s involved in.
The third character PV starts with Chizuru Mizuhara asking Kazuya, “Don’t hesitate. I’m going out with you today.” Following that, we see various scenes of Chizuru on dates, in private activities, and her new acting gig.
The third character trailer featuring Rinatsu Sarashina starts with scenes of Kazuya and Rina in a shopping mall, fighting over what to add to the curry, Rina also kissed Kazuya on the cheek and later cuddled with him, putting Rina’s fans on edge.
The fourth character teaser featuring Asami Nanami begins with Asami trying to seduce Kazuya by calling him “Kazu-kun.” Asami continues to attack and seduce Kazuya for no apparent reason, leaving fans concerned about what the future beholds for Kazuya.
Plot/Storyline
Rent-a-Girlfriend season 2 has yet to get an official plot outline. The first season, on the other hand, followed the manga’s first six volumes rather precisely.
With 228 chapters and 39 volumes in the manga, there is a lot of material from which the second season might draw.
In Season 2, the relationships between Kazuya, Chizuru, and Mami are anticipated to continue to grow in new ways. There are more chances for these characters’ true feelings to come out in the upcoming season than there were in the first one.
Also at the request of Chizuru, Kazuya agreed to go on a “practice date” with Sumi who is crippled with shyness.
So in the upcoming season, Kazuya will practically take Sumi on a date to improve her social skills and build some self-confidence in her.
