We don’t know what the anime movie will be about yet, so keep in mind it could either be original content or adapt more of theTakagi-sanmanga as a direct sequel toSeason 3. None of the cast and staff was confirmed yet, but Rie Takahashi will be reprising the lead role as Takagi and should keep singing for the series too.

Moreover, the announcement reveals volume 16 of the originalTakagi sanmanga will be released with Volume 12 ofMoto, on June 13, 2025, in Japan. The series as a whole has over 10 million copies in circulation now, reaching a new milestone.
Karakai Jouzu no Takagi-sanstarted in 2012 in Japan and has been pretty popular since. It’s not an exaggeration to say it started a new trend of “characters teasing someone else” and stuff likePlease Don’t Bully Me, Nagatoro-sanprobably wouldn’t exist if not forTakagi-san.
The series' mangaka, Souichiro Yamamoto, who already published several manga, is still publishing different works simultaneously. While he’s not drawing theMoto Takagi-sanspinoff himself, he’s still the one behind the plot. He’s also behind the ninja comedy seriesKunoichi Tsubaki no Mune no Uchi, which sadly isn’t localized in USA yet.
Souichiro Yamamoto also regularly shares super cute artwork of his characters on Twitter so you should definitely give him a follow if you aren’t yet. You can also reach me on Twitter@A_iyane07to talk aboutTakagi-sanorTsubaki.
