Rent-A-Girlfriend Season 2 Expectations and More
Rent-a-Girlfriend season 2 does not have an official storyline yet. However, the first season didn’t stray far from its manga roots and closely followed the first six volumes. And given that the manga currently has nearly 190 chapters and 19 volumes with no ending announced, there’s a lot for the new season to draw from.
The final episode of Season 1 ended with several fascinating incidents. Mommy hired Chizuru and questioned her about Kazuya, admitting that she was aware of the true nature of her and Kazuya’s relationship.
On the other hand, Chizuru refused, claiming that Kazuya was her boyfriend. She then asked Mommy if she ever considered Kazuya her true love, which drew little response. Later, Kazuya meets up with Chizuru and admits he wants her as a girlfriend, but backs down a bit, explaining that he meant it as a rental girlfriend.
Season 2 will most likely delve deeper into these developments between Kazuya, Chizuru and Mami. And while the first season highlighted these characters’ true feelings, the second season is expected to give them more opportunities to express their authentic romantic impulses.
Kazuomi Koga will once again lead the animation project. In the past he was an assistant director on Rainy Cocoa and also worked as an episode director on Akame ga Kill!, Goblin Slayer, The Devil is a Part-Timer! and Steins Gate 0. (The Devil is a Part-Timer!) Timer! Season 2 is slated to premiere in 2022.)
