The anime adaptation of Shonen Jump+ hit "Marriagetoxin" is mapping out its television return, with a second season scheduled to premiere in January 2027.
Creators Joumyaku and Yoda Mizuki outlined the upcoming release window and hinted at what lies ahead for the production in an interview with Variety. "There is plenty of cool action we want you to see," the creative team told the outlet regarding the next batch of episodes.
The series centers on Hikaru Gero, an elite assassin specializing in poison who must navigate the unfamiliar territory of the dating market to secure a spouse and preserve his clan's lineage.
Originally serialized on Shueisha's digital platform Shonen Jump+, the title made its broadcast debut during the Spring 2026 anime season, quickly establishing an audience across domestic television and international streaming platforms.
The swift greenlight for a January 2027 follow-up reflects broader production committee strategies surrounding Shonen Jump+ intellectual property. With global demand for shonen adaptations remaining high, distributors and producers are increasingly compressing production cycles to retain subscriber momentum across streaming services.
