Jun. 11th, 2024 12:08 pm100 Girlfriends keeps coming up with banger ideas. The latest girlfriend is a cynical writer who thinks the only people who can potentially fix the world are the ones who don’t understand or refuse to accept the magnitude of the task. The world is just so fucked in so many ways that if you truly grasp it, you’ll be overwhelmed with despair. She writes to inspire other people so they’ll do what she no longer can. But Rentarou is the closest thing she’s ever met to a fairy-tale prince, and he’s starting to give her hope again.

Nov. 4th, 2023 10:03 amThoughts on 100 Girlfriends:
Hakari: I keep forgetting what her gimmick is, especially now that Hahari is her but massively ramped up and incestuous.
Karane: It’s not like I like her or anything.
Shizuka: Cute and mute. I like the bunny theming.
Nano: Best Rationalist protag, 10/10.
Kusuri: Plot contrivances and piss jokes. At least the loli thing isn’t played up too much.
Hahari: predatory bisexual who wants to fuck her daughter. Credit for saving Mei’s life tho.
Kurumi: Her central joke is too pun-based to translate well, but she’s a good straight-man to the wackier characters.
Mei: Somehow ends up being the most serious character. Has some good chapters about her neuroses.
Iku: I’m not kink-shaming, I’m only-one-joke-shaming.
Mimimi: Best NPD character since Rayfa Khurain.
Meme: Plushies are so much better than logs with jackets on them.
Chiyo: doesn’t get to do much now that Kishika is the primary character who acts childish and then feels humiliated about it.
Naddy: Eh, I don’t see the humor in her. I like how incredibly tolerant she is, though.
Yamame: Clumsy giants can be lovely maidens too. Not especially funny, but likable enough.
Momiji: Has no personality, but managed to completely break Uto’s composure, so she can stay.
Yaku: A good contrast in worldview to the younger characters.
Kishika: The mental regression thing kinda weirds me out, honestly.
Ahko: Her blood pressure issues are hashtag relatable.
Uto: 99% of writers would not be smart enough to pull off this character, and I’m impressed this one can properly portray her unique brand of “logic.” Probably the character I most resemble, as much as I hate to admit it.
Mai: Feels more like Mei’s girlfriend than Rentarou’s. I like when she talks about how she hates Rentarou and loves him at the same time.
Momoha: Did you know it was possible to write Ohya Ichiko and not have her suck? Somehow has the healthiest relationship with her own sexuality out of all the characters.
Rin: The romance genre doesn’t really play to her strengths. She’d be better off slaughtering demons with a katana.
Suu: Boring and pointless.
Eira: I guess I prefer a warrior who keeps becoming terrified to a warrior who keeps becoming infantile.
Tama: Yup, the author went there. I want to follow her on Tumblr.
Kiki: Running out of weird gimmicks, the author made a character whose gimmick is that she keeps trying to find weird gimmicks. I’m not impressed so far, but it’s early.
Hakari: I keep forgetting what her gimmick is, especially now that Hahari is her but massively ramped up and incestuous.

I’m reading 100 Kanojo
May. 31st, 2021 09:53 am“I agreed to date you because I love you, Karane. Headstrong, but still very gentle. Pretty shy, and not entirely honest, but even that was so very, very cute. On that day, right here, the person I fell in love with was the tsundere Karane.
“If the way that you are right now is the Karane that you really want to be, then I’ll do everything I can to support you in that. I’ll do my utmost to love you just as much as I loved the Karane you used to be. But if you want to effect this change because you hate the Karane you used to be, then I can’t accept that. I’ll never let you disown that Karane, because nobody in the entire world loves her more than I do.”
This goes pretty damn hard for a harem comedy.
