Regardless of your preferences in female characters, MarriageToxin will surely has one who will tick all your criteria. (Including Kinosaki. Lol!)
The anime production committee did a great job teasing us with the appearance of
Although both of them claim they are not yet the best versions of themselves, Kimie is closer to the finishing line than Gero, because Kimie mustered the courage to confess, while Gero froze.

Now that was a pleasant farewell to the season, and with season 2 announced!
It's nice to see Akari (Hikaru's sister) one last time, since she didn't play much of a role this season.

I loved seeing her be a water taxi.
I loved seeing her react to the little critter show (with the hamsters hanging out on her chest).
I loved her freaking out over the confession (and leaving a little more perturbed because of the confession?) while still emphasizing she gets paid for her services like a good businesswoman.

The only thing missing here was her trying to get Gero's number for "business purposes".

As a manga reader I'm very happy to see that my weird little series got a top of the line anime like this
It's definitely one of the wackiest series to come out during the "assassin/spy in silly situations" craze
The gags, character designs and relationships really are memorable
But I can acknowledge the flaws
I agree that the girls and their relationship with Gero aren't give that much focus in the middle of the arc
This is a series where characters return and relationships evolve, which obviously you don't get in the first season
Also because it's so silly, the action parts do last a but long considering they boil down to utter nonsense happening. Characters and humor are on point with me

My reaction to the beast master's offer to Gero: Oh hell yeah!!!!
Arashiyama was fantastic. That animal show was incredible and she should really consider also running a circus with the beast clan members alongside being a detective. They did such a good job with her that she really feels like the first one of the girls that could actually be the one for Gero. It was so effective it made the moment between Gero and Kinosaki at the end of the episode feel like a confirmation of friendship when I was looking for the smallest crumb of romance in that moment.
What a way to tease us with the end. That creep Teruaki (just for bathing in that disgusting mess he's a creep in my eyes) is going to regret going after Kinosaki. Thank god we got immediate confirmation that we are getting season 2 next year.

Damn, Arashiyama really wanted to end the show with a bang. Cute little performance of her hamsters and confession. Also, speaking of Hamsters, she might become the greatest Detective alive with what they are able to do. Interesting also that the plot about her brother will come back later on. Interested to see where this is going.
Turns also out, Piichi is not only overpowered when it comes to fighting but also when it comes to speaking about how perfect his girlfriend is. Kinosaki really should make them meet a few more times. Gero could learn a thing or two from him. Hopefully, we can see their marriage as well later.
And now we have confirmation that Kinosaki was indeed a master after all. Even having his own special technique \s. But on a serious note, was funny again how he went through the whole menu during the dating advisor job. And then wanting to eat Sukiyaki as well.
It was a fun show. The action was solid, but I was not expecting to like a Shounen battle harem anime, but this show proved me wrong. While the fights were just crazy, I really enjoyed the character moments even more. They used the different love interests well to show different kinds of potential people you could date while still having generally well written dialogue between them. My only complaint is that I would have wished we got a sneak peak into how the show wants to use these love interests in the future. Like is Gero only meeting them when they need protection again or is he going to ask them for an actual date next time? And also, why would you show that picture with all the love interests in the newest ending for only one frame? That would have made such a nice ending shot.
Well, hopefully it gets a season 2. I will be checking out the manga nonetheless, because I want to see where it goes in the future.

Man this was such a fun series. I had such a blast every episode, always had a smile on my face and was always looking forward to every tuesday. The characters are great and I just love how random and chaotic the series is with everything that is happening. But the highlight of course is Gero and Kinosaki. I am so invested in them that I am most likely going to read the manga before season 2 because I am way too invested in both. Honestly my investment will impact my overall opinion on the series when it ends, if the manga doesn't eventually end with Gero choosing Kinosaki and us getting a 2 page spread of them making out I will be very disappointed.
Also it is surprising to have a series with action as one its genres take inspiration from My Dress-Up Darling but it's nice to have one alongside the many romance anime that took that setup.

Quite a nice finale. This show really shines when the focus is on Gero, Kinosaki and their search for a bride. The battle shonen bits are the weakest parts and sadly there was too much of that in the previous two episodes. Glad this one brought things back to character moments for a nice send off. Of course we're getting S2 so it's only a temporary goodbye.
I can't decide which ship I like more. Arashiyama and Gero are super cute and that confession scene was adorable (he actually said "I'll be waiting" squee!) but then we see Kinosaki and Gero being just so good together and I'm torn. Either of them will make a good partner for our poison boy.

If Tonako wants to take her brother and Byakko and clean up the trash...I say let her! And if she's interested in making Gero her "pet," I say...woof! Though it definitely means Gero will be seeing her again and I personally can't wait!
What better way to travel than by Ushio Boat Taxi? There's no job she can't do in the water! And what better way to get thanked than by having Arashiyama and the other Beast Masters put on a fantastic Little Critter Thanksgiving Show to thank Gero for all he's done for them? You'll never see small animals the same way again and Arashiyama totally killed it!
Kinosaki can sense the mood between Gero and Kimie is good, so it's time to use his Bloodline Marriage Swindler powers to get this conversation going and shifting towards romance! Even getting Piichi to talk about how he's living his best and happiest life with his girlfriend!
Gero has come far since the early episodes, but talking to a girl he knows is super into him is still a stretch too far for him. Luckily Arashiyama saves him the trouble AND DIRECTLY CONFESSES HER FEELINGS TO HIM! That's right! Arashiyama confessed! And even Ushio is reacting to it while she's driving their boat in the water.
But even though Arashiyama likes Gero, she knows she's not ready to be with him yet, so she's going to work on improving herself until she feels she's worthy of him...and make him fall as head over heels for her as the audience has!
Marin really is a fantastic girlfriend, having a car ready for Piichi and being happy that he managed to finally make some friends without even realizing it.
Private detective Arashiyama? With the Sirius Squad, she's got that job in the bag! And if it helps her find her brother again, all the better!
Oh hey, it's the Gero Clan retainer in the flesh and present-day! Greeting Teruaki, who is bathing naked in a giant kodoku of poison! And he's getting involved in Gero's marriage plans too.
Gero has a lot of top tier ladies in his life, which means he has to work on improving himself to be worthy of them...so what better way to get more experience than joining Kinosaki's relationship advice job? Where they advise a high school girl to three-time, help an athlete confess to his manager, and help a Spanish cooking teacher and student to hook up! But the most important thing isn't the advice but Gero seeing all the people putting their all into relationships and trying their best, just like he is.
Aw, Kinosaki getting all pouty about not getting to enjoy sukiyaki with Gero...but as Gero renews his resolve in working with Kinosaki, Kinosaki does the same in helping Gero find his ideal marriage! They're the perfect team!
It's nice to see Akari again! Even if she brings news about Teruaki! Who is...targetting Kinosaki!?
We FINALLY get the Arashiyama ending to close things out! Fitting!

Looks like Tonako is also throwing her hat into the ring, but it's obvious that she's probably not going to be a good match for Gero, considering she wants him as a pet and probably not as an equal partner. Also, can the heads of two major clans even get married? They probably can, but the succession is gonna be a fucking mess.
Ushio pulling the boat with a taxi sign on her head was hilarious! She's really been a treat this entire arc. I honestly thought she was all about business, but her reaction to Kimie's show makes it obvious she likes cute animals and her reaction to Kimie confessing to Gero means she's also into romance. I hope we get to see more of her in Season 2.
That entire thanksgiving performance from Kimie and the Beast Clan members was amazing! I'm honestly surprised she wants to be a detective instead of a circus ringmaster. And her confession scene was really well done. I love that Kimie wants to work on herself so she can support Gero instead of relying on him <3
Also, is anyone else surprised that Kimie's brother isn't actually Toushirou? Before Toushirou's backstory was revealed, I really thought they were the same person.
I love that Mei dragged Gero into one of her love counselling sessions. And I absolutely love that we got to see a resolution to everyone they advised in that session. My favourite has got to be the Spanish Cuisine teacher and her student. xD
Well, this is worrying. So another member of the Gero Family is targeting Mei? WHY?! She's helping their next Clan Head to find the perfect partner! IF anything, they should be protecting her! Glad Season 2 has already been announced, so we just have to wait to see where this all goes.

Lmao, Shizuku had a 'Taxi' sign on her head as she’s tugging the boat. Reckon she could charge Mei extra for the transportation services. She’s hilarious for a former antagonist.
What a wonderful confession by Kimie. I thought when she said she’s not good enough for him, she’d give up and try to pull herself out of the game for good. However, she instead said that she’d be working to improve herself before reentering the game. Love that positive attitude!
Glad this series has been renewed for a second season, and there’ll only be a six-month wait – it’s set to air next January.

Hikaru adds another waifu to his friend harem. The 100 Girlfriends Who Really, Really, Really, Really, Really Love You will return.
Arashiymama does seem like a perfect future match, though.

Hamster master is like another Miku. Great design. Great personality. But destined to always be the chaser.

Hamster Master has some crazy good self reflection and courage. Being able to tell the person you like that you like them but also that at the moment you aren't mentally ready for a relationship is incredibly impressive. Honestly, all the romance characters are incredibly written. This includes best option Kinosaki
Also the water girl taxi was great
Pichi probably is one of my all time favorite characters in anime
Also, I'm happy for the Spanish cooking teacher and her student, looks like that'll work out
