 The wraparound band on the 24th volume of Shungiku Nakamura's Junjou Romantica manga revealed a new anime for its spin-off Sekaiichi Hatsukoi: Onodera Ritsu no Baai on Friday. The new anime, titled Sekaiichi Hatsukoi: Propose-hen, celebrates the fifth anniversary of Emerald, the magazine where the manga currently runs.Synopsis When Ritsu Onodera changes jobs, looking for a fresh start, he's not exactly thrilled when his new boss turns out to be his old flame. Ritsu's determined to leave all that in the past—but how can he when his boss is just as determined that they have a future? Tired of accusations that family connections got him his current position, Ritsu Onodera quits his job as an editor at his father's company and transfers to Marukawa Publishing. Once there, he is assigned to the shojo manga editorial department—something he has no interest in and no experience with! Having sworn he'd never fall in love again, the last thing he wants to do is work on love stories. To make matters worse, it turns out that his overbearing boss, Masamune Takano, is actually his first love from high school! (Source: SuBLime) Nakamura originally serialized the boys' love manga in The Ruby magazine in 2006, which transferred to Asuka Ciel in 2009. Kadokawa launched Emerald in late 2014, the real-life version of the magazine from Sekaiichi Hatsukoi, where both the manga and the main series Junjou Romantica subsequently switched. The 14th compiled volume went on sale on May 1. Studio Deen produced two television anime seasons in Spring and Fall 2011. The fifth and sixth manga volumes bundled two original video anime episodes in March and September 2011, respectively. The Sekaiichi Hatsukoi: Yokozawa Takafumi no Baai anime film opened in Japan in March 2014. VIZ Media licensed the manga under its SuBLime imprint in 2014 and published the 12th volume on April 9. Funimation licensed the anime series in 2016 and shipped both seasons and the original video episodes on a DVD volume in March 2017.

| Omg didnt expecting this, so its basically sekaiichi hatsukoi season 3?? or just ova?? I hope they use the same OST from season 1/2 because its the only thing that keep me watching the show lol or they should rehire the same composer, love the vibe and the mood of the show but yeah the re-use 'trope' from this series can be annoying, the ost and the relaxing pace saved it tho. |

| Finally it's happening |
| Haven't watched this since late 2015. At least this gives me a good reason to rewatch! |
| my favourite triangle faces are coming back woohoo |
| It's been a while since there's anime for the series. I cannot wait to watch more of Nobu's character. |

| Finally, some motivation to watch season 2 |
| Aww this takes me back! Looking forward to Konishi voicing Takano again. |
 |
| Man this takes me years back. |
| Yesterday I was in a shock but in a good way when saw the news by an website. This is good chance to see more about Nakamura work's comes to life again, I really love her story's and of course the tsundere characters so much Nevertheless I was waiting for Junjou Romantic instead of this one, but I love the second couples from this spinoff too! I really hope they don't change the previously vibes and love substance's of this show in the previous seasons. |
-¡Give yourself to me! |
| I had no idea that Emerald is actually real now. That is really cool. ^_^ |

Happy for Kita, he gets to sing one more Sekaiichi theme song after all these years. I'm so looking forward. Man,I was really hoping it would be a 3rd season. |
