If the wiles of the paid girlfriends have charmed you so much that you can no longer wait for the next season of the anime, it is time you tried the manga. The nice thing about the manga is that Kazuya becomes less trash as time goes on.

What to Expect From The Rent-a-Girlfriend Manga?
Overall, the Rent-a-Girlfriend anime is a solid adaptation of the manga. It adapts the same core story, but it does on occasion leave out some of the smaller details and moments that develop the characters a bit more. However, none of that really merits reading the manga from the beginning unless you want to.
Is The Rent-a-Girlfriend Manga Over?
The Rent-a-Girlfriend manga is still ongoing. Since launching in 2017, it usually releases five volumes per year.
Will There Be A Rent-a-Girlfriend Season 5?
While originally a split-cour Season 4, Season 4, Part 2 was changed to become Season 5. It is set to air in April 2026.
You can find out where to continue the Rent-a-Girlfriend story after Season 5 here after the final episode of Season 5 airs.
They’ve changed the marketing and started calling it season 5 instead of season 4 part 2.
Good. I’d prefer they’d stop the trend of labeling things Part 2 when they are split-cour for ease of labeling things.
But anyway, updated and thank you for letting me know.
