Rent-A-Girlfriend Season 4 Opening Turns the Girls into Fairy Tale Princesses
If you’re watching Rent-A-Girlfriend Season 4 (despite all the manga drama), you’ve probably noticed that this season brings the most visually striking opening yet.
A Magical Fairy Tale Theme for the Rent-A-Girlfriend Season 4 Opening
The opening sequence transports Kazuya and the girls into a fantasy world where he embarks on a mission to rescue Chizuru from a castle. The animation quality is top-tier, and fans were quick to notice just how much effort was poured into the visuals.
The highlight? Each girl is styled after a famous fairy tale character:
Ruka appears as Snow White
Mami channels Cinderella
Sumi takes on the look of Little Red Riding Hood
Mini resembles Alice (from Alice in Wonderland, most likely)
And Chizuru shines as Rapunzel
The anime community has responded with praise and surprise. Few expected such a creative direction for the new OP (opening), and now expectations are sky-high for future seasons.
This gorgeous sequence was directed by Ciao Nekotomi, who also handled the openings for Alya Sometimes Hides Her Feelings in Russian and Shikimori’s Not Just a Cutie. Animation direction was led by Kanna Hirayama, and the opening theme song, “Umitsuki”, is performed by the iconic duo ClariS.
With this level of creativity and polish, Rent-A-Girlfriend Season 4 has raised the bar for anime openings this year. Whether you’re following the anime or just keeping up with the visuals, this fairy tale-themed intro is hard to ignore.
Time to collect those manga volumes—Rent-A-Girlfriend isn’t slowing down anytime soon!
