Despite major story progression, the manga continues, so the story won’t conclude here.The wait is finally over, and it’s time to pack your bags for the most chaotic vacation in anime history. Rent-a-Girlfriend Season 4 has been officially confirmed and is set to premiere in July 2025, bringing Kazuya’s disastrous love life back to our screens.
This isn’t just a rumor—official sources have dropped the release window, a new visual, and massive production updates. If you thought the movie arc was emotional, just wait until you see what the Hawaii Arc has in store for Chizuru and Kazuya.
When is the Rent-a-Girlfriend Season 4 release date?
It is official: Rent-a-Girlfriend Season 4 will premiere in July 2025. The announcement came with a teaser visual featuring the five heroines—Chizuru, Mami, Ruka, Sumi, and Mini—at a train station, hinting at the upcoming travel arc.
Here is the critical production info you need to know:
- Release Date: July 2025 (Summer Anime Season).
- Format: Split-Cour (The season will air in two separate parts).
- Director: Kazuomi Koga returns to the director’s chair (he directed Seasons 1 & 2).
With Koga returning, fans can expect the pacing and comedic timing to feel very similar to the show’s earlier seasons. For fans of romantic comedies, this summer is shaping up to be legendary, potentially rivaling the hype for My Dress-Up Darling Season 3.
What manga chapters will Rent-a-Girlfriend Season 4 cover?
Season 3 concluded around Chapter 167, wrapping up the emotional Movie Arc and the cheer-up date. Season 4 is set to adapt the infamous Paradise Arc (Hawaii Trip), which kicks off immediately after.
This arc is one of the longest and most controversial in the manga, spanning roughly from Chapter 168 to Chapter 230. Because the anime is confirmed as a split-cour production, it has enough room to adapt this massive storyline properly without rushing the major dramatic beats. If you are following other adaptations like Konosuba Season 4, you know how crucial pacing is for comedy sequels.
Get ready for maximum stress and second-hand embarrassment. The Hawaii Arc forces all the major players—Kazuya, Chizuru, Ruka, Mami, and Kazuya’s family—into a single resort location.
- Mami’s Master Plan: She is done playing nice and makes her biggest move yet to expose the rental lie.
- The Ring: Grandma Nagomi puts immense pressure on Chizuru with a specific family heirloom.
- The Confession: Kazuya is more determined than ever to tell Chizuru how he feels, but interruptions are constant.
The tension in this arc is unlike anything else in the series. It shifts from pure comedy to intense drama, similar to the high-stakes shifts we see in shows like Sentenced to Be a Hero.
Is Rent-a-Girlfriend Season 4 the End?
With the July 2025 release date locked in, the countdown to the Paradise Arc has officially begun. The return of director Kazuomi Koga and the split-cour format suggests the studio is treating this pivotal storyline with the care it deserves.
While this season will cover a huge chunk of the story, the manga is still ongoing, so don’t expect a final conclusion just yet. Are you ready for the drama of the Hawaii trip, or are you just here for Mini Yaemori’s advice? Let us know your theories in the comments below!
