This year, Bushiroad is going to release a brand-new trading card game called Gotōbun no Hanayome Card Game.

The game will have original artwork by Haruba, as well as original artwork from other illustrators and from the manga.

This year, the initial booster pack and five distinct trial decks (one for each quintuplet) will be shipped. (A minimum of four booster packs will be published on a quarterly basis.)

In August 2017, Haruba began publishing the original manga in Kodansha’s Weekly Shōnen Magazine, and the series concluded in February 2020. More than 20 million copies of the manga have been distributed.

The first season of the anime debuted in January 2019 and ran for twelve episodes. The second season of the anime ran from January to March of 2021.

Cinemas around the country opened on July 14 for the Quintessential Quintuplets TM animation special, which aired on September 2 and 3.
