Rent A Girlfriend Season 4 has officially joined the Summer 2025 anime lineup, and the anticipation has been steadily building. Produced by TMS Entertainment, the series continues to adapt Reiji Miyajima’s popular romance comedy manga with a storyline that’s only getting more complicated and emotional. With two split cours planned for the season, viewers are now turning their attention to how and when the new episodes will roll out, and what the Hawaii Trip Arc will bring to the screen.


The first cour of Rent A Girlfriend Season 4 began on July 1, 2025. It is currently expected to run for twelve episodes, airing weekly through September 16. While no delays have been announced yet, the schedule remains subject to change. The show premiered early on DMM TV and d Anime Store in Japan, and global streaming has been picked up by Crunchyroll for audiences outside of Japan, China, and Korea. Viewers can tune in each Tuesday based on the following time slots: 6:30 AM PST, 9:30 AM EST, 2:30 PM BST, and 7 PM IST.

For fans planning their watch parties, the full episode list for the first cour is as follows. Episode 1 dropped on July 1. Episode 2 will follow on July 8, and each subsequent episode will release weekly until Episode 12 arrives on September 16. The second cour, which will likely continue the manga adaptation beyond this point, has not yet revealed its release date or episode count.

In terms of storyline, the season picks up from chapter 168 of the manga and dives straight into the Hawaii Trip Arc. Following the successful crowdfunding campaign for Chizuru’s movie, Kazuya is grappling with the weight of his feelings and the complications surrounding them. The season explores his resolve to be there for Chizuru while also navigating the emotional tensions with Ruka, who remains persistent in her affection for him.


Meanwhile, Kazuya’s ex girlfriend Mami, who is fully aware of the rental girlfriend arrangement, begins to form a connection with Chizuru herself. This development adds a new layer of suspense and unpredictability to the story. Kazuya begins to question whether Mami has a hidden motive, and whether her involvement could interfere with his fragile bond with Chizuru.


The Hawaii setting promises to offer new character dynamics, lighthearted beach episodes, and deepening romantic threads. Fans can expect more moments of tension, comedic misunderstandings, and introspective drama, all hallmarks of Rent A Girlfriend’s appeal. With strong animation, returning voice actors, and emotionally charged writing, the fourth season sets the stage for some of the most decisive character developments yet.

Whether you are following Kazuya’s love triangle, rooting for Chizuru’s dreams, or just here for the rollercoaster of emotions, Season 4 is shaping up to be a vital chapter in the series.
