"100 Kano" Season 3 Officially Set for July Premiere
There is some really great news for the fans of the popular series The 100 Girlfriends Who Really, Really, Really, Really, Really Love You. It has been officially revealed that the third season of the TV anime, based on the original manga by Rikito Nakamura and Yukiko Nozawa, is going to air in July 2026. This announcement has naturally created a lot of buzz in the anime community. Along with the release date confirmation, a fresh teaser PV for the third season has also been shared, giving us a small glimpse of what is coming next for Rentaro and his ever-growing family.
The new promotional video shows the "Rentaro family" working very hard and practicing together with a single goal—to reach the idol stage. It is quite heartwarming to see how they always manage to stay united despite the chaotic situations they face. Many fans agree that this is exactly why the 100 girlfriends is the ultimate rom-com because it balances these sweet moments with over-the-top comedy so perfectly.
Meet the New Heroines: Chiyo Iin and Nadie
One of the biggest highlights of the teaser is that we can finally hear the character voices of Chiyo Iin and Nadie, the two new heroines who will be joining the cast in the third season. While their voices are in the PV, the names of the voice actresses are still a secret. The official cast for these two characters will be announced during the AnimeJapan 2026 talk event, which is scheduled for March 28th. Fans are eagerly waiting to see who will be bringing these new girlfriends to life.
In the teaser, you can also hear a bit of the new insert song titled "HAKOBUNE ~It's Okay for 100 People~" which is sung by the Rentaro family itself. It sounds like a very fun track that fits the idol theme perfectly.

A Journey of Love and Survival
For those who might need a refresher, the story follows Rentaro Aijo, a boy who was told by the God of Love that he has 100 destined partners in high school. But there is a huge catch—if he meets a soulmate and they don’t fall in love, that person will die in an accident. So, Rentaro has decided to date and love every single one of them with all his heart. This unique premise is a big reason why the 100 girlfriends is the ultimate rom-com for many viewers today.
The first season originally started airing in October 2023, and the second season followed in January 2025. The original manga is still being serialized in Weekly Young Jump by Shueisha, and the popularity only seems to be increasing with each new season.

There are also some interesting interviews related to the series. For example, a conversation between Rikito Nakamura and Aka Akasaka (the creator of Kaguya-sama) revealed that 100 Girlfriends is basically a "love gag" designed specifically to make readers laugh as much as possible. It is really a labor of love from the creators.
