MARRIAGETOXIN Anime Unveils Stunning Key Visual and Debut PV, Setting Stage for April 2026 Premiere

Anticipation is high as Bones Film reveals details for its television adaptation of the hit Shonen Jump+ series, MARRIAGETOXIN. Ahead of its highly anticipated April 2026 debut, the production team has released a new key visual alongside the inaugural promotional video, offering fans a first glimpse into the series' unique tone and creative execution. The central visual immediately captures the volatile dynamic at the heart of the story: heir Hikaru Gero poised with his signature poison needle, confronting the master swindler Mei Kinosaki presenting a dazzling engagement ring. This image perfectly encapsulates the core premise, a high-stakes, deadly partnership built around an assassin and a con artist engaged in a relentless "marriage hunt."

The debut PV effectively translates this concept into motion, showcasing fluid, stylish action choreography and a richly vibrant color palette that promises visual splendor. It expertly balances sequences of intense combat with moments of sharp, romantic-comedy intrigue, signaling that the adaptation honors both the shonen battle elements and the character-driven suspense.

Key Creative Staff Confirmed

The confirmed creative roster features Bones Film spearheading the animation under the direction of Motonobu Hori. Kimiko Ueno is managing the series composition, and Yurika Sako is handling character designs. The inclusion of music by Taisei Iwasaki and yuma yamaguchi, alongside 3DCG contributions from SANZIGEN, strongly suggests a commitment to delivering top-tier production values.

Broadcast Details and Voice Cast

Furthermore, the broadcast details place the series in a prime slot, airing every Tuesday on Kansai TV and Fuji TV’s new "Ka-Anival!!" programming block starting in Spring 2026. The announced voice cast is equally robust, featuring Haruki Ishiya as Hikaru Gero and Shion Wakayama as Mei Kinosaki, supported by an ensemble that includes Haruka Shiraishi, Anna Nagase, Mariya Ise, and Sōma Saitō, among others, promising depth to the burgeoning roster of allies and rivals in this unconventional competition.

Described by its licensors as an "intense marriage hunting battle action" saga, the PV’s polished presentation confirms that MARRIAGETOXIN is shaping up to be a standout contender for the 2026 anime calendar, merging sharp martial prowess with compelling romantic stakes for an audience eager for stylized shonen fare.
