Bridal Toxin
A must-watch for its unusual concept and Bones Film studio. If you love "assassins trying to be normal people" in the spirit of "Spy x Family" — this is a more adult, yet equally funny version.
Premiere on Fuji TV is scheduled for April 7, 2026 — an anime adaptation of the manga by Joumyaku and Yoda about the heir of a clan of poisoners. Hikaru Hero, a master of poisons from five great families, faces an ultimatum: to protect his sister from an arranged marriage for the continuation of the clan, he must marry himself. Along the way, he meets Mei Kinosaki, a genius con artist from a "wedding agency," who becomes his consultant on winning a woman's heart. The tone is a dynamic action romcom with elements of crime: here, deadly skills are applied to dating, and poisons are a metaphor for emotional barriers. Standard season format (12–13 episodes) from Bones Film studio. For fans of "Spy x Family" and "Kaiji," looking for an unusual blend of action and romantic comedy.
April 7, 2026 — premiere on Fuji TV, followed by Crunchyroll for international audiences.
