Congrats.
Yay!
There, there. No crying.
Hoo boy.
I gave away all my buttons.
O-Oh yeah? Well, I'm gonna start now.
Asakawa-san.
I like you! Please
Go out with me!
Aijo-kun.
Same here.
You're so cheerful, friendly,
and straightforward,
and you're incredibly nice to everyone.
And that's why I
li
I like you, too, but
Just the idea of dating you
makes me wanna puke.
I can't, sorry!
Way to go from "Sick!" to sick!
Aijo Rentaro's
Rejection Blues
A wild ride from heaven to hell.
It was the first ever rejection
that made me wanna die.
Today my romance died.
Cheer up, Rentaro.
Friend A
Quit looking like a doomer
falling into darkness, dude.
Aijo Rentaro
What would that even look like?
Like that.
By the way, what's the rejection streak at now?
Why would you ask your heartbroken friend that?
Cause I'm not gonna see you after today anyway!
Wow, now you've ruined
every single memory we've ever shared!
That rejection was
my one hundredth.
I'm amazed you had the nerve
to keep going after the first ninety-nine.
I dub thee
Graduation Certificate
#Losing
Sir Flirts-a-Lot.
Sir Flirts-a-Lot
Stop that!
I don't deserve knighthood! All I do is lose!
How'd you even get to 100?
When did you first ask a girl out?
I'll never forget the day it happened.
A A-tan
I was eight months old.
Wub you!
I take it back! You're no hero, just a monster!
No!
No, no!
No, no, no, no!
Guh, I want a girlfriend so bad!
I wanna hold hands and go all, like, "hngh!"
I wanna have fights throwing love bombs
at each other instead of snowballs!
And I wanna have normal snowball fights, too!
I really don't get it, though.
Why do you keep getting rejected?
You've got the looks,
and you're smart and athletic.
You're nice to everyone
and popular with both boys and girls.
Talk about laying it on thick!
Are you into me or something?
Anyway, take care, Rentaro.
Don't die, even if your rejection streak
keeps going in high school.
Could you not jinx the next chapter
in my life already, my good Friend A?!
Find Love
Find Love
Find Love
Find Love
I beg of you, gods of love and everything else!
Please let me land a girlfriend
and lead a high school life filled with joy!
Worry not.
I'm over here.
Offerings
Gah! A donation box thief!
What kind of thief shows up like this?!
I am the very god of this shrine.
What kind of god shows up like this?!
Worry not, Rentaro.
It is written in the stars that you'll meet
your destined chick in high school.
What's up with
his hair
My destined chick?
Indeed.
No way! The chick
Wait, now I get it. Chick, huh?
Like, Chick-filet, right? I'd love to dig in.
What are you, some kind of Ghoul From Tokyo?!
No, I mean your soulmate.
The person who was chosen for you at birth.
Your ideal romantic partner.
My ideal romantic partner?
Exactly.
When two soulmates meet,
a sudden shock runs through their bodies.
And they instantly fall
head over heels for each other.
It'll be love at first sight, as they call it.
Head over heels for each other?
Indeed.
But it bears noting that women
will know the very moment this happens,
while men will only realize it
gradually over time.
Women will the know the moment this happens,
while men only realize it over time?
So repetitive!
Quit repeating after me!
We've barely got enough time to cover
everything we need to in episode one!
If people went, "Huh? I thought the god had
more lines in the manga. Were they cut?"
that would royally suck! For me, especially!
O-Okay, let's move on!
And soulmates are fated to meet
at a specific point in their lives.
"A god quick to switch gears"
Too quick to switch gears, even!
But what about the people
who remain single their whole life?
"A boy quick to switch gears"
Of course, not everyone
gets to have a soulmate.
The ones who do are truly blessed.
I see.
Anyway, I'll get to meet my soulmate in high
school and have a joyful romance with them?
Indeed. And what's more
In high school, you will meet a grand total
of one hundred soulmates!
A hundred?!
You'll have your pick of the girls.
Aren't you happy?
A-Aw, come on My pick?
If you're lying, can I burn down this shrine?
Gah! Some of my lines just got cut!
1 Month Later
Ohana-no-Mitsu High School
Entrance Ceremony
Name of
the high school
Rentaro enrolled at
(Bet you didn't
know that one)
Finally, the entrance ceremony!
Not that there was much waiting involved,
given we skipped here right after graduation.
Now, we head to our respective classes
to get a rundown of the school rules
Ow, ow Oh, sorry about that.
That hurt! Watch where you're going!
Sorry. I should've been more careful, too.
Krrrack!!!
Huh? Wh-What was that?
I just felt a shock run through
my whole body. Could it be
Are they who god was talking about?
Are they
my soulmates?
Ack!
Quit staring at them!
They don't know anything!
They're just gonna think I'm a weirdo!
Are
Are you two okay?
Er
Wh-What's wrong?
My apologies. It appears I've twisted my ankle.
Hnghhh 3
Hnghhh 3
Could you help me
to the nurse's office, please?
O-Of course! How bad is it?
Does it hurt a lot?
Oh, no! It's not too bad.
I'm so sorry. Like, for real!
What kinda jerk hurts his precious soulmate
as soon as he meets her?
Get your act together, damn it!
Squeee!!
Swoooooooooooooon
He's crying so much,
just because he hurt a total stranger!
Love is blind.
What a kind soul!
Are you okay? Can you stand?
Yes, thank you.
I I-It
It's not like I twisted my ankle just so
I could lean on you or anything, okay?!
What in the?!
Wait.
Are you hurt, too?
Yeah, I twisted my ankle.
You got a problem with that?
What am I, some kind of living,
breathing Deathstar?!
What kinda messed-up way do you have
to walk to hurt everyone you touch?!
What's the matter?!
He's having a seizure?!
Huh?
What?
You two can stand?
Owie. Ouchie.
Q-Quit messing around and help us already!
Oh, uh Sure.
Wait, why does it look like
I'm the one being carried?!
Oh, no! I can't keep my balance
with the three of us all bunched up.
H-Hey, quit clinging to him!
You're making me lose my balance, too!
No, it's you!
No, you!
Hey, stop
What is even going on?
Am I dreaming?!
They're clinging to me like cicadas!
I'm the luckiest
telephone pole in the universe!
L-Let's just hurry
to the nurse's office already.
I feel like I'm gonna flip over
and turn into a girl.
Real life ain't Reversi.
Oh, r-right.
I'm Aijo Rentaro from Class 1-4.
How about you two?
I'm Inda Karane, also from Class 1-4.
I'm Hanazono Hakari from Class 1-4.
Hmph! So we're classmates!
We're in the same class, huh?
Stereo introductions!
Did you hear about
this school's love superstition?
Could we maybe go one at a time?
Please give me one more chance.
There's a field of pink clovers
in the courtyard.
If you find a four-leaf clover there
and ask someone out with it,
they'll definitely say yes, apparently!
The heck? Sounds like a story for little kids!
Yeah, but they say it has a 100% success rate!
I just remembered something I need to do!
I just remembered something I gotta do!
So your legs are fine now?!
End of the First Day of School
And Four Hours After That
I didn't expect to help a teacher
look for his contacts after school,
Found it!
Found it!
nor did I expect it to take four whole hours.
Thank you!
Thank you! I'll give you
a hundred million extra credits!
I'll give you a hundred
million extra credits!
I'd hoped to see those girls
again after school,
but I guess that's not happening.
They both ran off somewhere
Four-leaf! Four-leaf! Four-leaf!
Four-leaf four-leaf four-leaf
They're going at it!
Have they been looking for a four-leaf clover
since school ended four hours ago?
Who does that?!
Guy who just
spent four hours
looking for contacts
And they're trying so hard, too
Is it for me?
I can't just stand by and watch!
I guess they've all been picked by now.
But surely I can find one
Inda-san.
Having trouble finding that four-leaf clover?
Aijo?!
W-What? I'm not looking for
a four-leaf clover or anything!
Uh
Right! It's just, I
I suddenly felt the need to go,
so I'm just looking for a good spot!
You sure you wanna go with that?
You're just making things worse for yourself!
Wait, where's Hanazono-san?
Huh? She was right there a moment ago.
Bathroom break, maybe?
Oh. Well, in that case
Here.
You must be tired, so have a drink.
Huh? Wh-What?
What're you playing at?
I-I don't get it.
Right, figures.
I'm being kinda gross, huh?
We only just met and all.
Y
You're being so gross,
I'm gonna throw it all up,
but I'll drink it just so
it doesn't go to waste!
I'm not trying to put you through
all that pain and suffering, though!
A-Anyway, it's getting late.
You should go home.
I-I don't need you tell me!
I was about to do just that!
H-Hey, uh
Th-Thanks.
Extra, extra! We have a tsundere!
H-Hmph!
It's not like I'm thankful or anything, okay?!
I'm getting mixed signals!
Huh? Aijo-kun?
Hanazono-san.
Wh-What are you doing here?
Oh, uh
It looked like you two'd been looking for
a four-leaf clover all this time,
so I bought you some drinks.
Here. For you, if you'd like.
Aw, you shouldn't have
Oh, but I always struggle to finish
a whole can by myself.
Could you please have half of it for me?
It's the perfect scheme!
Now I can share an indirect kiss
with Aijo-kun! I'm so smooth!
I get it.
I was worried about 350ml being too much,
so I got you a 190ml can, too.
Way to go, me.
B-B-But
Half of 350ml is 175ml,
and 190ml is 15ml more than that.
I really don't think
I could finish it by myself.
Is 15ml really that big a hurdle?!
W-Well, if you insist.
Please.
Okay, here I go.
Let's gooo!!
How the heck does one drink exactly 15ml?
Here. Hopefully, that should do it.
Thank you so much.
Wait!
Isn't this an indirect kiss?!
An indirect kiss with Aijo-kun.
I-Indirect
kiss!
Hanazono-san?!
I didn't know you liked that drink so much!
My indirect ki
Hanazono-san.
You've got splashes on your skirt.
Use this to wipe off.
Huh? H-Hanazono-san?
Aijo-kun.
I I love you!
Please go out with me!
Wh-What?
I-I'm sorry.
I know this is too sudden. But
I feel like I'm already
head over heels for you.
And it seems I'm not the only one
who feels that way.
So I thought I had to say it now,
or else I'd regret it forever.
It's the first time
any girl has ever asked me out.
I'm over the moon!
I
I-Inda-san?
What's with all those cans?!
It's not like I wanted to pay you back
but couldn't figure out what you liked
and bought one of everything, okay?!
I appreciate the thought,
but you really shouldn't have!
Who died and let you cut in line?!
Whatever could you mean?
I-I had no idea you liked Aijo-kun, too.
You just said you weren't
the only one! I heard you!
I-It's not like I like you or anything, okay?!
Bit late for that, isn't it?!
H-Hmph!
But, hey, if you want to go out with me
so badly, I guess I could be your girlfriend.
I've never seen anyone ask someone out
like they're doing them a favor before.
No, what I mean to say is
I I love you, too, Aijo.
Please go out with me.
Hanazono-san.
Inda-san.
Aijo.
Aijo-kun.
Who's it gonna be? Pick one!
Which one of us will it be? Make your choice!
F
Find out after this short break.
I'm gonna kick your ass!
I
I seriously can't choose!
They're both so attractive.
There's no way I could choose.
Is it because they're both my soulmates?
I asked them to wait
until tomorrow for my response
But what do I do?
But of course.
They're your soulmates,
both your ideal romantic partner.
It's impossible for you to pick one.
How do others do it?
What do the people who meet
two soulmates at once like me handle it?
About that
Normally, any given person
only has one soulmate.
Something monumental just happened
to coincide with your birth.
It caused me, the god of love,
to make a horrible mistake.
What? What was it?!
It was a Friday.
Fortress in the Sky
was airing on TV while I was working.
You're a god!
Why are you watching TV as you work?!
L-Listen, hear me out!
It was my first watch!
My first exposure to Balus!
I'll wait three minutes.
Your first Balus?!
Balus!
Spectacular!
jot jot jot
That's understandable
my ass!
Aijo Rentaro
will have 100 soulmates
You know Fortress in the Sky is a 100/100!
100 soulmates
That's not the point!
Why'd you even put your score down there?!
An easy task involving just putting down "1" on each sheet.
Heck, if it's one soulmate just person,
why not just print that part, too?!
Graaaargh
Damn it all! What have you done to my life?!
If I'd had only one soulmate, I could've led
a happy life not worrying about all this!
Not to kick you while you're down,
but it gets worse.
There's more?!
When a person meets their soulmate,
they can love each other and be together.
But if that doesn't come to pass,
all sorts of horrible stuff happens to them
and they die.
Having a soulmate is such a blessing,
it uses up a whole lifetime's
worth of good luck.
As such, if one fails to match
with them, only misfortune awaits.
So, you mean to say
If I go out with one of them
Yes. The other will die.
How the heck am I supposed to choose now?!
The hell do you expect me to do,
for crying out loud?!
Yeah I'm really sorry about this, honest.
This can't be happening to me!
The girl I don't pick will die?
What can I do?
Hang on. What if
Sorry. I can't go out with either of you.
I said that because I didn't want to hurt her.
I will go out with you, of course.
But keep it a secret
so she doesn't find out, okay?
That's it! That way, I can date
both of them without the other knowing!
I can save both of them from certain death!
Good morning, you two.
Good morning, Aijo-kun.
Here I am. Hurry up and give us your answer
Tattered
What the hell happened to you?!
Oh, sorry. Don't worry about it.
So
Have you decided on your answer?
Yeah.
I want both of you to be my girlfriends!
Wh
You wha?!
Both of us? Are you out of your mind?!
I know how crazy this sounds!
But
That's it! That way, I can date
both of them without the other knowing!
I can save both of them from certain death!
How stupid am I?
The two of them opened up to me
and told me how they felt.
I know better than anyone
how much courage it takes
to confess your love to another person!
There are lines that
should never be crossed, man!
I just couldn't decide.
I love you both so much,
I couldn't pick only one!
I may be two-timing, but I will not hurt you.
I'll put in every drop of blood, sweat, and
tears, and make you the happiest girls alive!
So I'm begging you two!
Please go out with me!
Y
You can sweet-talk me all you want,
two-timing is just not on
Pink
four-leaf clovers?
Two of them, no less!
We searched for so long together,
and we couldn't even find one!
H-How'd you get those?
Well, last night
I called a teacher
and asked them to let me back in.
Oh, you're the one who found
my contacts. Sure, anything for you.
Thank you so much!
You spent all night looking?
Wh-What an idiot!
You're in high school, and you still
believe that stupid superstition?!
Inda-san, please stop.
Your words are coming back
to bite both you and me.
Stab
Hah! I bet you're trying to show off
how much you care for us!
I
know it
I'm still not letting you talk me into
accepting something as trashy as two-timing!
Huh? Oh, sorry.
That's not what I was going for at all.
Then what the hell are you trying to do?!
Down, Inda-san.
You two-timing piece of trash!
You must be crazy!
I know you acted all smug only to swing
and miss, but that's no reason to rage.
Stupid jerk, stupid jerk!
It's just, you two were trying
so hard to find these.
Nag, nag! Nag, nag!
It made me think you like
this kind of romantic gesture.
So I figured, if I gave you
these along with my answer,
it might make you happy.
V-Very well. I accept.
I don't mind you two-timing me.
Excuse me?!
Have you lost your mind, too?!
I am hopelessly in love with Aijo-kun.
I can't even imagine falling in love
with anyone else anymore.
If it's between this and rejection,
then being two-timed is but a trifling issue.
So I hope you'll take
good care of me, Rentaro-kun.
M-Me, too!
You better treat me right, or you'll pay!
Oh? What happened to
"two-timing is just not on"?
I-I never said I wouldn't go out with him!
Yeah, I promise.
I'll make both of you the happiest girls alive!
And so begins Rentaro's
unprecedented pure-love harem life.
But we mustn't forget:
There are 98 more soulmates to come!
What will Rentaro do?
Will he leave the rest of this
endless barrage of soulmates to die?
Or will he choose to love every single one?
Is he gonna go for a century?!
Are you gonna be hundred-timing,
Rentaro?!
