The winter 2019 anime series Quintissential Quintuplets revealed back in May 2019 that a second season was coming and that arrived with January 7th, 2021 debut for it on TBS. We learned at the end of March 2021 that a third season is coming as a sequel season has gotten the green light. That all shifted during the month of April 2021 as it was revealed that the sequel season was being done as a feature film instead.
The film saw a May 20th, 2022 theatrical release for it and Crunchyroll picked it up for streaming. The film is now getting some overseas home video distribution as Madman Entertainment has scheduled it for an Australian release. The film is set for a March 6th, 2024 release priced at $34.95. It’ll be a bilingual single-disc set that comes with promos, commercials, and clean theme song material as extras. A formal solicuitation will come later to confirm details and dates when retailers can begin listing it.
The second season has Kaori directing the series and that Bibury Animation Studio has taken over the production for it. The main cast are all returning.
The first season was directed by Satoshi Kuwabara based on the series composition by Keiichiro Ochi. Michinosuke Nakamura and Miyabu Uta are handling the character designs with Tezuka Productions working on the animation.
The Japanese cast includes Yoshitsugu Matsuoka as Futaro Uesugi, Kana Hanazawa as Ichika Nakano, Ayana Taketatsu as Nino Nakano, Miku Itō as Miku Nakano, Ayane Sakura as Yotsuba Nakano, Inori Minase as Itsuki Nakano, Natsumi Takamori as Raiha Uesugi, and Satoshi Hino as Isanari Uesugi.
The series comes from creator Negi Haruba which began in August 2017. Kodansha Comics picked up the rights to the Quintissential Quintuplets manga for domestic release back in June 2018.
This one features the opening theme song “Gotobun no Katachi” by The Nakano Family Quintuplets while the ending them has them also performing “Hatsukoi” for it.
