Dating is
complicated enough, but trying to get a wife when you're an elite poison
assassin escalates the matter to a ridiculous level. Luckily for those who
enjoyed this crazy mix of action and romance, the production of Marriage
Toxin officially confirmed that the series will return with a second
season in 2027, accompanying the announcement with a first promotional
trailer and an official image.
After the
premiere of its first season on April 7, the animated adaptation will maintain
the formula that conquered viewers. The Bones Film studio will
once again take over the animation under the supervision of BONES, with Motonobu
Hori directing. The scripts will continue under the command of Kimiko
Ueno, while Kohei Tokuoka will once again be in charge of
character design and general animation direction. The soundtrack will once again
be a collaboration between composers Taisei Iwasaki and Yuma
Yamaguchi.
The story
will pick up the peculiar alliance between Hikaru Gero and Mei Kinosaki. Forced
by his clan of assassins to get an heir to prevent them from forcing his sister
to do so, Hikaru ends up hiring Mei, a brilliant marriage swindler whom he had
to eliminate, to become his dating consultant. Together they will continue to
face dangerous assignments from the underworld as they try to solve the most
difficult mission of all: finding the perfect bride.

Marriage Toxin
Written
by Jomyaku and illustrated by Mizuki Yoda, the
original manga began serialization on Shueisha's Shonen Jump+ app in April
2022, totaling eighteen compilation volumes released in the Japanese market.
The work stands out for combining frenetic combat sequences between clans of
assassins with comical situations about a novice's learning in the art of
courtship.
