About
the franchise
The main
story follows Kazuya Kinoshita, a university student who, after
being abandoned by his girlfriend after a month of relationship, decides to
hire a girlfriend for rent out of pure frustration. This is how he meets Chizuru
Mizuhara, a beautiful and extremely professional young woman who turns a
simple business transaction into a complex web of lies and awkward situations
among her families and friends.
The
original work, written and illustrated by mangaka Reiji Miyajima,
began serialization in the pages of Kodansha's Weekly
Shonen Magazine in July 2017. Thanks to its profitability, the
franchise has inspired multiple animated seasons since the summer of 2020 and
even a live-action series adaptation released in 2022.
