Rent-a-Girlfriend Season 3

Synopsis

Continues the story of Rent-a-Girlfriend Season 2

As Kazuya Kinoshita and Chizuru Mizuhara enter their second year of the rental arrangement, Chizuru announces her plan to quit the rental business and become a full-time actress. Although Kazuya wants to keep their connection alive, he decides to back her dream. He attends her debut performance and is impressed by her talent, but he worries when a famous director in the audience shows interest. After the director chooses another actress and delivers a scathing critique of Chizuru's abilities, Kazuya feels driven to keep renting her weekly to help with her finances. At the same time, the return of his ex-girlfriend, Mami Nanami, muddies his emotions and causes him to question his dedication to Chizuru.

In this installment

Motivated by the encouragement of her late grandfather, Chizuru Mizuhara teams up with her friend Kazuya Kinoshita to start a crowdfunding campaign for an independent film, hoping to fulfill her grandparents' dream before she loses her grandmother. Caught in the turmoil caused by encounters with Kazuya's persistent "trial" girlfriend, Ruka Sarashina; their interfering new neighbor, Mini Yaemori; and Chizuru's reserved coworker, Sumi Sakurasawa, the group comes together to hit their funding target and begin shooting. As the film moves forward, Chizuru and Kazuya draw closer and deal with their shifting emotions toward one another.
