The production team behind the anime adaptation of MARRIAGETOXIN released a new trailer and main visual today to confirm the series return. The update arrived early morning on September 8 2026 via official promotional channels. Fans can expect the second season to debut in January 2027.
Details of the Season Two Reveal
The promotional video functions as both a teaser for the upcoming season and a recap of the protagonist Hikaru Gero's progress. It highlights his struggle to find a marriage partner and reviews his past conflicts with the various Masters he encountered during his initial search. The new visual suggests that additional characters will join the narrative when the show returns.
This production continues the momentum from the first season. That arc concluded in June 2026 after a 13-episode run. The series maintains a unique premise centered on an assassin from a lethal poison clan who seeks to avoid the family business by securing a spouse.
Production Staff and Series Origins
The source material originates from the manga written by Joumyaku and illustrated by Yoda. Serialization began in April 2022 on Shonen Jump+. VIZ Media handles the English translation and distribution for international readers.
Studio bones produced the first season. The director was Motonobu Hori. Kimiko Ueno managed the series composition. Kohei Tokuoka handled character designs and chief animation duties. The musical score featured work from composers Taisei Iwasaki and yuma yamaguchi. These creative partners helped define the specific aesthetic of the show during its spring 2026 broadcast.
Audience and Availability
Crunchyroll currently maintains the streaming rights for the first season across a wide range of regions including North America, Europe, and Southeast Asia. The narrative hook remains consistent: a trained killer forced into an unexpected hunt for a wife. He enlists the help of a marriage swindler named Mei Kinosaki to navigate the social complexities of romance.
January 2027 remains the target window for the premiere. Viewers interested in the series can catch the existing 13 episodes on the platform before the next chapters arrive. Industry observers will watch to see if the production staff remains consistent for the sophomore season.
