No, OreGairu Season 4 has not been confirmed. There are currently no official plans for a fourth season. The third season, My Teen Romantic Comedy SNAFU Climax, was produced as the definitive finale, adapting the entire 14-volume main story of the original light novel series. While the author has written short sequel stories titled OreGairu Shin, this material is not substantial enough for a full season and parts were already adapted into a 2023 OVA. As of September 2025, Studio Feel and the production committee have not announced a new season.
It’s been quite a while since the Service Club closed its doors, hasn’t it? After sinking hundreds of hours into the light novels and anime, the ending of Hachiman Hikigaya’s journey felt complete, yet it left us all wanting just a little more. The question of a fourth season is always lingering, fueled by hope and the complex world Wataru Watari created. So let’s get into the genuine answer about what’s really going on with a potential OreGairu Season 4.
Is OreGairu Season 4 Officially Happening?
No, there has been no official announcement confirming the production of OreGairu Season 4. The third season was explicitly marketed as Climax (or Fin in Japan) to signify that it was adapting the story to its conclusion, as written in the original light novel series. This was intended to be the final chapter of the anime.
Why Was Season 3 Considered the Finale?
The anime faithfully followed Wataru Watari’s light novels. The third season covered volumes 12 through 14, which wraps up the central narrative and resolves the complex relationships between Hachiman, Yukino Yukinoshita, and Yui Yuigahama. With the source material for the main story fully adapted, there is no existing plot from the primary series left to animate for a new season, which is the biggest reason a direct continuation is off the table.
What Are the OreGairu Shin Light Novels?
This is where things get interesting. After the main series ended, the author penned a new series of six short volumes titled OreGairu Shin. These were bundled with the Season 3 Blu-rays and are considered a canonical continuation, exploring the “new days” of Hachiman and Yukino’s relationship. However, these volumes are much shorter than the main novels and likely don’t contain enough content to fill a full 12-episode season.
Could Shin Be Adapted in Another Way?
Absolutely. While not enough for a full season, the content in Shin is perfect for other formats. In fact, a new OVA that was bundled with the OreGairu game in April 2023 already adapted some of this new material. If the rest of Shin were to be animated, it would most likely be as a series of OVAs or potentially a movie, rather than the “Season 4” fans are hoping for.
What is the OreGairu Ketsu Project?
You may have heard about a new project called OreGairu Ketsu. It’s important to understand this is not a sequel to the main story. Ketsu is a new light novel series that tells an alternate-universe story, one that explores a “what if” scenario focused on Yui Yuigahama. It’s based on the ANOTHER light novels and provides a different route for the story, separate from the canon ending.
Have the Creators Said Anything About a Sequel?
Author Wataru Watari has mentioned in the past that he would like to continue writing the main story, but there have been no concrete plans or announcements for new light novel volumes that would continue from Shin. Meanwhile, Studio Feel has moved on to other projects, and Watari himself has been busy, including working on the script for the 2025 anime Young Ladies Don’t Play Fighting Games.
Where Can I Get My OreGairu Fix?
While you wait for any potential news, there’s plenty of OreGairu content to dive into. You can re-watch all three seasons of the anime and the associated OVAs. For a deeper experience, reading the original 14 light novels is a must, as they provide much more of Hachiman’s internal monologue. After that, you can check out fan translations of the Shin and ANOTHER light novels to see the story’s continuation and its alternate path.
Will We Ever See Hachiman and Yukino Again?
The chance of a full OreGairu Season 4 is nearly zero. The story has a definitive conclusion. However, the world is still very much alive. The most realistic hope for more content lies in a potential movie or a few more OVAs adapting the rest of the Shin novels. Until an official announcement is made by Gagaga Bunko or Studio Feel, though, the story of the Service Club remains beautifully complete as it is.
