Hakari's definitely closer to the "completely insane" side of the 100 girlfriends spectrum than she would like to admit.

Yes. Apparently it contains every phrase she could ever possibly need.

Lt. Lizard posted:Huh, thinking about it a bit more and completely disregarding Rentaro for a bit, the God of Love REALLY owes an explanation to every single one of those 100 girlfriends for why they have to share their sole soulmate with 99 other girls. As a note, there's a thing in the fandom about debating which of the girlfriends have more than one soulmate. Hakari and Karane are pretty high up there, but there are a couple of others down the line too.

Didn't they say that everyone normally only has one? Just because you like each other and kiss on the lips doesn't mean you're also soulmates.

"Normally", like anything is normal in this show

In Hakari and Karane's case, it's based on their meeting Rentaro simultaneously, the idea being they established a soulmate connection with each other as well as Rentaro. Also, the creators love putting in gags about how Hakari associates Karane with being her true love. Yeah, it may be a bit, but it's the kind of bit where you strongly suspect they're serious.

I dunno if I'll stick with the show version, but it's interesting as a manga reader seeing this comparatively sober early material again.

I'd say the voice acting and the added visuals of what the story in the book actually looks like help elevate the show version of this arc above the manga for me. Or maybe I'm just in a sentimental mood lately.

Yeah they may just like each other due to shared experience of being jerked around by rentarou and his soulmate nonsense. I mean they did share a kiss.

Not sure what kind of jokes book girl will bring once it switches to comedy again. Right now she’s the bottom one atm. Hakari is winning in kisses, tsundere just seems to try to copy whatever she does

I think people have this weird idea that people can only ever date or kiss their soulmates, which is just not how the setting works as presented.

Spookydonut posted:Also hakari's mother has two soulmates They don't actually say that in the manga (at least up to where I've read, which is well past the point where it might come up). This is precisely what I mean by people making weird assumptions that it is only possible to fall in love with soulmates. Not every romance is a soulmate!

I don't get the if you don't end with your soulmate, you die bit. Cause I'm sure there's tons of people that never meet their soulmates and that's just that.

GateOfD posted:I don't get the if you don't end with your soulmate, you die bit. Not everybody has a soulmate, but if you do have one, that relationship uses up the entire span of luck, joy, and happiness that Heaven has allotted you. So if you never actually get together, you're doomed to a life without any of those things and will quickly die.

I think it's heavily implied that you will eventually meet your soulmate. It may take 40 years but if they're out there you will eventually meet and fall in love. If you don't follow through that's when you die.

The correct answer is don't think about it. The god of love certainly wasn't.

I started reading the comic and I'm already 30 some chapters in. This should, by all rights, not work and yet it absolutely does.
