Minami-ke Korekara, the fifth season of the Minami-ke TV anime, will premiere in April 2027. The broadcast window, a teaser visual, a teaser PV, character images, the cast and the staff were revealed at the Minami-ke Special Event 2026 on November 8, according to a press release quoted by Famitsu.
The voice cast is returning. Rina Satō plays eldest sister Haruka, Marina Inoue plays Kana and Minori Chihara plays Chiaki. The release says the other characters will also be voiced by the cast from previous seasons.
Liden Films is producing the animation. Sound director Yasunori Ebina and the series' composer will keep the roles they have held on Minami-ke throughout the series, according to the release.
The teaser visual shows Chiaki, Kana and Haruka, from front to back, jumping in the same direction. The teaser PV opens at the Minami family's apartment, where Haruka says that dinner is almost ready (translated). It goes on to show Kana and Chiaki's feud, each sister's school friends and the "other" Minami family, and it closes with the April 2027 premiere window.
Coharu Sakuraba's manga has been serialized in Kodansha's Weekly Young Magazine since 2004. It follows the ordinary daily lives of the dependable Haruka, the energetic troublemaker Kana and the cool, sharp-tongued Chiaki. Earlier anime adaptations aired in 2007, 2008, 2009 and 2013, and the release describes the new season as the sisters' return after 13 years. The sequel was first announced in 2024, and its subtitle was revealed at a November 2025 event at Theater Mixa in Tokyo.
The release ends with the series' usual caution: "This story simply depicts the everyday lives of the three Minami sisters. Please don't get your hopes up too much" (translated).
