More Than a Married Couple, But Not Lovers is the story of two high schoolers, Jiro and Akari, who are paired together in their high school’s “marriage practical” class. They need to work together and find a way to get along so they may both gain the top reward of being able to choose their current crushes as their new partners.
More Than a Married Couple, But Not Lovers saw a major spike in popularity during the Fall 2022 anime season, thanks to its highly rated and successful anime adaptation. The pairing of Jiro and Akari rose to the very top of Anime Trending’s “Ships Chart” for that season.
