The Gene of AI and the third season of Rent a Girlfriend will not be broadcasting new episodes on August 25 due to unrelated broadcast. Instead, new episodes (eighth for both shows) will air on September 1.
Both titles premiered on July 7. Studio MADHOUSE is animating The Gene of AI, which is scheduled to have 12 episodes. Yuzo Sato is directing. Crunchyroll is streaming the anime and describes the plot as:
The future is here and a new species lives among people: humanoids. Similar to man, these robotic beings are highly sentient and suffer from unique ailments. Thankfully, Dr. Hikaru Sudo can help. He vows to treat the humanoids even by illegal means, causing him to lead a double life. But when strange diseases emerge as a result of this coexistence, ethical lines become blurred.
TMS Entertainment returned to animate the rom-com Rent a Girlfriend series, which is also known as Kanokari (Kanojo, Okarishimasu). Shin’ya Une is directing. Crunchyroll is also streaming the latest season, as well as its prequels, and describes the plot as:
Kinoshita Kazuya is a 20-year-old failure of a college student. He managed to kiss his girlfriend once, but was dumped after a month. “Ugh… Damn it. I never want to go through that again.” Completely spiteful, Kazuya uses a certain method to date a girl. He goes to their meeting place and suddenly hears, “You’re Kazuya-kun, right?” A beautiful girl brushing her long, black hair behind her ear was there, smiling at him. Her name was Mizuhara Chizuru. Something real is born after just a single rental! A reckless rom-com filled with love and excitement is about to begin!
