Reiji Miyajima’s obsession for Chizuru Mizuhara, the lead character of Rent-a-Girlfriend, is no secret. And so when the author shared a cryptic tweet regarding the manga’s conclusion, fans were beyond surprised, as he had been previously accused of ‘living in his own ridiculous fantasy’ through the protagonist Kazuya.
Reiji Miyajima took to Twitter to drop the big news, stating, “The final episode has been decided“.
However, it’s worth noting that Miyajima had made a similar announcement last year as well, so it is advised to take the update with a grain of salt.
In response to the announcement, fans flooded social media platforms with mixed reactions, with many conveying their eagerness for the series to come to a close, citing a lack of plot progression over the last 70 chapters. Whereas, others speculate that the author is pulling the Oda move and drop another 100 more chapters.

Just as fans were catching their breath after the emotional rollercoaster of the season 3 finale of “Rent-a-Girlfriend,” the question on everyone’s mind is: Will there be a Rent-a-Girlfriend season 4? In this article, we delve into all the details and explore the possibilities of the beloved anime’s future.
The Absence of a Season 4 Announcement
To the surprise of many fans, an official announcement for season 4 of “Rent-a-Girlfriend” has yet to materialize. This departure from the usual trend is leaving fans anxiously wondering if they will have to endure a more extended wait this time around.
Historically, new seasons were typically announced immediately after the conclusion of the previous one. For example, season 2 was confirmed right after season 1 ended, and season 3 followed suit. However, this time, the silence is deafening.
