→ Online release of the song “Kimi datta kara”, Best Album, and online release of Futaro character song, “Iroasenai Kimochi

The Quintessential Quintuplets anime previously consisted of two anime television seasons (2019 and 2021), an anime film (2022), and a two-part anime television special titled The Quintessential Quintuplets~ (2023). The shows are all based on Haruba's Kodansha-published manga, which began serialization in Weekly Shonen Magazine in 2017 and ended in 2020 with 14 tankoubon volumes. Kodansha USA describes the premise as follows:

Five girls who want to do anything but study and their tutor: a high school boy who is book smart and nothing else. Futaro Uesugi takes a tutoring job because he desperately needs money, but when his students—the five beautiful daughters of a wealthy businessman—find five times more reasons to be lazy, what can he do? ?! At this rate, the sisters won't graduate so if they want to get paid, Futaro must come up with a plan that works for each of them… The hopeless feeling that five out of five of them think that he be a loser!

The first season was directed by Satoshi Kuwabara at Tezuka Productions, while the second season was directed by Kaori at Bibury Animation Studios. The Quintessential Quintuplets Movie was also produced by Bibury but directed by Masato Jinbo. The Quintessential Quintuplets~ is produced by Shaft and directed by Yukihiro Miyamoto.

Keiichirou Oochi composed the music for all previous television anime and wrote the scripts for most of the episodes and movies. Michinosuke Nakamura was the first season's character designer and was later credited as a collaborative character designer. The successful character designers are Masato Katsumata and Kazuya Shiotsuki (only The Quintessential Quintuplets~).
