The Quintessential Quintuplets Production Committee”
A trailer has been released by AnimeTV for the Quintessential Quintuplets Season 2.
It is being said that season 2 of the anime will be strongly dealing with Fuatro falling in love with one of the quints. Futaro starts dreaming about a girl where he meets her on a school field trip to Kyoto. Her name was Rena(similar to his deceased mother’s name, Reina). Itsuki, one of the quints, once asked him why he studies so hard. He replied by saying that it was this girl in his dreams who motivated him to study hard.
Futaro only knows about Rena as The Girl from the Photograph. He had observed Rena buying five charms for some odd reason during the field trip. To this Itsuki cites that once she also pulled out an old charm that she either bought or was given five years that came from Kyoto. This whole mess seems to have startled Kyoto as to Itsuki being that girl.
Problems start getting into Futaro’s life as he gradually gets close to the quints. Things go so far that two sisters Nino and Itsuki get into a quarrel and slap each other. Both of them flee the house and it falls upon Futaro to solve the matter and bring them home. He tries his best to reconcile but the matter turns worse. Itsuki turns up in Futaro’s house and starts living in it and won’t return until the other quint apologizes.
At this moment, Rena enters Futaro’s life for a brief period and asks him how his life is going. He then describes his issues to her to which Rena takes back her photograph which was with Futaro and bade him goodbye forever. Futaro was shocked by the way he was dumped in water but buckles up and gets down to solve the problems among the quints.

After he solves their matter and brings the quints back together, he realizes that he never should’ve taken the job of a tutor in that house and hence decides to resign from the job. He talks to their father and says that he is incompetent to fulfill the role of a tutor but also lashes out at the father for being a lousy and irresponsible parent who couldn’t look after the quints properly. The father of the quints gets infuriated at this blame and banishes Futaro from the house forever.
Futaro will ultimately marry one of the quints.
The quints miss him terribly but the matter of utmost importance is ahead as the final exams are knocking on the door. But this time it isn’t the test of academics. It is the test of love. Three of the quints have already fallen for Futaro and their mind games will drive Futaro crazy during a family visit to a hot spring resort. Events will mount up to a confession from one of the quints and will bring a moment where Futaro will realize that he had begun falling in love with one of the quints. But for that to take place, you have to keep an eye out for The Quintessential Quintuplets Season 2.
The title first originated as a Japanese superhero manga series. It was serialized in the Weekly Shonen Jump since July 2014. The manga was written and illustrated by Kohel Horikoshi. The manga was adapted into an anime series with its first season airing in Japan from April to June 2016. The anime has been noted to take inspiration from superhero comics of Marvel and DC.

Google has rated the anime at 4.8/5, IMDb at 8.5/100, and Rotten Tomatoes at 100%.
The story of My Hero Academia deals with a boy named Izuku Midoriya who is born without superpowers and is termed as a Quirk. He desires to be a hero one day. His potential soon catches the eye of Japan’s then No.1 hero, All Might who shares his powers with Izuku by acknowledging his potential, and also helps him enroll in a high school for heroes. From then on starts the adventures of Izuku thus unfolding the story.
The anime has expanded itself to four seasons to date with a major chunk of the storyline being revealed in season 4 due to which fans are confused as to whether season 5 will appear or not. We are here to assure you fans that season 5 is in the work and will appear as the plot isn’t over yet and a good portion of it is left to explore. Here’s a fanmade trailer of season 5 made by Anime Rewatch which hints at the presumed storyline of the season.
In April 2020 it was officially announced that the anime will go forward for a fifth season. Although no official date for its release neither a trailer to the same has been dropped yet. Izuku Midoriya will be the protagonist of the story in season 5 too. The shooting of films, television series and animes have slowly started resuming after a long pause due to the coronavirus pandemic which started since March of this year. Due to such sudden pause and delay in resuming the production, we can expect the series by 2021.
Creator Yuki Hayashi has shared pictures of musical band members working hard in producing the soundtracks of season 5, on his Instagram account. This alone is the proof of confirmation that season 5 is in the works.
Also on the front page of the anime’s official website, a stunning image of the character Midori has been posted with its caption reading, “5th Season Coming”. This statement is ought to put a smile on the faces of the fans.
With respect to the trailer that has been shared in this article, we can predict that season 5 will move forward from Deku’s dream where season 4 ended. Some myriad and mysterious theories are coming out as to what was the dream all about as Deku was seen tapping into the energy field of all the past One For All users.
Deku’s dream sequence stills.
It is being said that season 5 of the anime will be strongly dealing with the history of One For All, the life of its past users, and how Deku has to learn a lot to master his powers. A good amount of screen time will be given to the character Endeavor who is Japan’s No.1 hero, in season 5. Fans are also eager to see as to what is going to happen to the hero community after All Might’s retirement.
The story of My Hero Academia is largely based on its manga counterpart and the storyline of the anime follows that of the manga’s. Hence as long as the manga’s plot continues there’s no chance for the anime’s storyline to end. As far as characters for the new season are concerned, the role for the No.1 hero will be transferred to Endeavor. In collaboration with the Hawks, Endeavor will take down a new form of a villain named Nomu who are living dead bodies used as killing machines by the League of Villains and Paranormal Liberation Front. Deku being the subject under the spotlight for the anime will embark on new adventures along with his high school friends in season 5 and will continue to develop through training.
Tomura Shigaraki – The leader of the League of Villains is said to be conspiring something evil for the upcoming season.
As far as villains go, there is a high chance that the former villains of the series might return in this season. The members of the League of Villains and their leader Tomura Shigaraki are waiting for the right moment to strike.
