New '5-toubun no Hanayome' Anime in Production

A new 5-toubun no Hanayome (The Quintessential Quintuplets) anime was announced at the series' 5th anniversary event in Yokohama Arena on Sunday. The new anime, 5-toubun no Hanayome*, based on Negi Haruba's romantic comedy manga, will center on the honeymoon trip of Fuutarou and the Nakano sisters. Haruba drafted the original story and is supervising the new anime.

The event also announced a new light novel by Hajime Asano (Mayo Chiki!) based on Haruba's original concept. The light novel will follow the daily life of the quintuplets that were not depicted in the original manga.

Weekly Shounen Magazine serialized the original romantic comedy manga between August 2017 and February 2020. Kodansha published the 14th and final volume in April 2020. 5-toubun no Hanayome has a cumulative 20 million copies of its volumes in circulation.

The first season produced by Tezuka Productions aired in Winter 2019. Bibury Animation Studios produced the second season in Winter 2021. Crunchyroll streamed both seasons with subtitles and an English dub.

A sequel movie premiered in Japan in May 2022, followed by two-episode side story television special by animation studio Shaft in September 2023.

Kodansha USA began publishing the manga in English in June 2018 and released the 14th and final volume digitally in August 2020 and physically in July 2021.
