The OVA will adapt the manga's 49th chapter ("Mother ~Utsukushisugiru Tenshi~") and 50th chapter ("Charm ~Idai Naru Haha~").
A second new OVA volume will ship with the 17th manga volume on December 2, 2016. The anime's official website held a fan poll for which chapter the OVA should adapt. The website and Jump Square will announce the results of the December 21-January 25 poll this summer.
Kentarō Yabuki and Saki Hasemi's To Love-Ru -Trouble- Darkness manga, a sequel of the first To Love-Ru -Trouble- series, launched in Jump Square in 2010. The series has over 14 million copies in print. Sentai Filmworks licensed the 2012 television anime series, and The Anime Network streamed the series in North America.
The second season, To Love-Ru -Trouble- Darkness 2nd, premiered on July 6, and Sentai Filmworks has licensed the series for home video. Crunchyroll streamed the series as it airs in Japan.
