Through his official Twitter account, the author Reiji
Miyajima stated that the final chapter of the manga “Kanojo, Okarishimasu (Rent
A Girlfriend)” is already decided. It should be noted that the term the
author used, “Saishuukan (最終回)“, could also refer to “ final
part or last arc“, but because he did not give more details, nothing can be
assured about it.
The author did not give any clue regarding the conclusion of
this work, not even if it is near or far in time. However, it is
important to note that this is the second year in a row that the author has
made this exact same post. In October 2022, Reiji Miyajima shared the
exact same image and the same message. Could he be lying and only
mentioning “the ending” to make the franchise relevant?
Reiji Miyajima began publishing the manga
through the publisher's magazine Weekly Shonen Magazine Kodansha in
July 2017. The work inspired a twelve-episode anime adaptation produced by the
studios TMS Entertainment, released in July 2020, followed by a
second season in July 2022 and a third season in July 2023. Together, the three
seasons have totaled thirty-six episodes. Mitsutaka Hirota and

Sinopsis of Kanojo, Okarishimasu
Kazuya Kinoshita is a 20-year-old college student who has
a wonderful girlfriend: the brilliant Mami Nanami. But suddenly, not anymore.
Without warning, Mami breaks up with him, leaving him heartbroken and alone.
Seeking to ease his pain, he hires a rental girlfriend through an online app.
Her companion is Chizuru Mizuhara, who through her incomparable beauty and cute
behavior, manages to win Kazuya's affection. But after reading similar
experiences of other clients Chizuru had had, Kazuya is sure that her caring
personality and warm smile were just an act to play with her heart, and he
rates her poorly.
Aggravated, Chizuru criticizes him for his shameless
hypocrisy, revealing his true temperamental personality. However, this
one-sided exchange is interrupted when Kazuya discovers that her grandmother
has collapsed. They rush to the hospital and find Kazuya's grandmother already
in good condition. Puzzled by Chizuru's presence, Grandma asks who this girl
could be. On impulse, Kazuya introduces her as his real girlfriend, forcing
Chizuru to play her role. But with Kazuya still anchored to Mami, how long can
this difficult client and his reluctant rental girlfriend keep up with her act?
