Okay, let's talk about Rent-A-Girlfriend. Specifically, let's talk about the burning question on everyone's mind: where's season 3? Or, maybe just for me?
The Season 2 Wait... Still Waiting?
Remember when we were all hyped for season 2? It felt like forever. It *finally* dropped in July 2022. That was, like, a lifetime ago in anime years.
Seriously, Where Is It?
So, naturally, we're all wondering what's up. Is there a release date lurking somewhere we haven't found? Are the animators holding out on us for some grand reveal?
The truth is... information is scarce. News outlets are quiet. Official announcements? Ghost town. It's making me start to sweat.
My Bold (And Probably Wrong) Predictions
Since no one else seems to know, I'm throwing my hat into the ring. Here are my completely unfounded predictions.
Option 1: Surprise Drop! Maybe they'll just release it with zero fanfare. A midnight miracle for us desperate fans.
Option 2: Late 2024/Early 2025. This feels realistic, if painful. Anime takes time, folks.
Option 3: The dreaded "On Hiatus." Let's pray this isn't the case. My heart can't take it.
Unpopular Opinion Alert: Was Season 2 Worth the Wait?
Brace yourselves. This is where I might lose some of you. I'm not sure season 2 lived up to the hype.
Don't get me wrong, it was fine! More Kazuya being... Kazuya. But did it really move the story forward? Debatable.
It introduced Ruka's grandmother... which did what exactly?. Mami continued to be...well, Mami. The beach date was fun. But there was so much to go through from the Manga.
Maybe that's why the wait for season 3 feels less urgent? Is it just me?
Let's Be Honest: We'll Still Watch It
Despite my *slight* reservations, I'll still be glued to the screen when (if?) season 3 arrives. I'm a sucker for these characters. Even Kazuya.
Who am I kidding? I'm invested. I need to know if he ever grows a spine.
What I *Really* Want to See
If season 3 ever graces us with its presence, here's what I'm hoping for.
More development for Sumi. She deserves the world! Maybe a side story, or just more screen time. This is not an option; it is a demand.
Less... awkwardness. I get that's part of the charm, but can we dial it down a notch? Please and thank you.
And for the love of all that is holy, a *real* confession. Let's get this train moving!
Final Thoughts (and a Plea)
So, when is Rent-A-Girlfriend season 3 coming? Your guess is as good as mine. But let's all band together and send positive vibes to the animation gods.
Maybe, just maybe, if we believe hard enough, it will magically appear. Until then, I'll be here, rewatching season 1 and pretending I'm not impatiently waiting.
And who knows, perhaps my slightly cynical take on the series is completely off base. Maybe season 3 will blow us all away. I'm certainly hoping so.
What do you guys think? Let me know.
