New '5-toubun no Hanayome' Anime in Production

Considering this is the Honeymoon arc, or whatever it will be called officially, I'm expecting this to be a short movie or a special. I just watched this until the end because of the VAs so I'm happy there is more

@Ryushindai Regarding VA. Recently, Itsuki's VA got into a rather unpleasant scandal, which will most likely lead to her conflict with Miku's VA or even somewhat with others too. So I wonder how production of this show will work if they are going to completely retain the cast.

@RobertBobert The Doyakonga drama.. yeah, I don't believe any of that thing, popular VAs are way too busy with schedules packed to the brim to be full time work saying bad things to other VAs on twitter or protecting their Favorite

@Ryushindai I also suspect that the main culprit was some overly intrusive staff member of Inorin, but at the moment all I can hope for is that the conflict does not go too far, given the hints of a libel lawsuit from Itou Miku.

So they’re taking the honeymoon joke they did towards the end of the series as some serious stuff this time around? Lol, I really like this but they’re going a bit overboard with their side story and “sequel” stuffs.

Also after everything that went down a few weeks ago, how will Minase Inori will face her fellow sister VA’s lol.

Highly unlikely, but I'd like to at least hope this goes back to the character designs from S1

What are the changes they shit on the original ending (author included) and let a better girl win? Which would easily be any of the other four...


The fact that this could destroy that shit ending has me more interested.

@5hadow17 Seriously? From quite good and high-quality design and animation of the last two episodes to the cheap visual of the first season?

@RobertBobert The character design of s1 was better and more faithful to the manga. Not that I dislike later season ones but they are a bit lolified.

@MegamiRem Perhaps more faithful, but the first season was quite too cheap for such a popular anime.

@RobertBobert Specifically talking about the character designs and not production value.

I was surprised that there is a sequel after the conclusion of the movie, so I expected something like the Horimiya spinoff-season. But a story about their honeymoon eh... would be kinda weird now if the other four sisters till tried to win him over I guess lol

Then the delusional fans are in the majority here, not that it matters cuz what most of the fans wanted is not what the mangaka wanted.

If anything he at least had the balls to finish it how and WHEN he wanted, BUT if he starts to milk the series pointlessly, then he will lose many's respect .

Let's say each sisters have 5 fans each, if one won she'd have 5 fan and the rest would have 20 so yes. The majority of fanbase would be left unsatisfied no matter which girl won cause no one girl in this manga is more popular than the other four combined.

If Negi wanted to milk the series he'd have done that with the manga and not in a roundabout way like this. He ended the manga with 122 chapters, short for such a popular series like 5-toubun. If he was gonna milk it he could have streched it to infinity like most authors of popular mangas these days.

@MegamiRem Well, I keep forgetting people hate Ichika more than they lack of interest on Yotsuba.
But I mean is, you have 5 sisters, and 3 of them have many more fans than the last two stops, Nino is my favorite, she is in third place, yet she has almost 3x as much fanbase only here on MAL, the other two, go well beyond the 20 000s.

Yotsuba won because that is what the mangaka was going from the start, but he never build her to be as likeable or as enjoyable as the other girls, she had much less spotlight than them, it is so confusing because the mangaka should be able to judge what he is doing at some level, IMO he should have made Yotsuba a way more compelling character, and he can make them compelling because damm Miku and Nino~~
It is like on purpose he decided to make her more bland and a background character, one that supports from the shadows rather than assuming control of her life.
This is the web, we are pitiful beings, the best girl should win, no one wants the girl who fought the least, who was fine with being a shadow, to win.

Tell me whatever you want, I recall the high score the manga had well before its ending, when it was going strong, how much it has fallen after its ending, the majority of people here don't agree with the ending, but you shit on it and you move forward, but that doesn't mean one will stay indifferent, when you say the best girl won, far from it.
If there are series that live for their endings, this was one of them, it is not the problem of your favorite not winning but rather who wins does not deserve it and felt like an afterthought up until the reveals and the ending.
