The 100 Girlfriends Who Really, Really, Really, Really, REALLY Love You [Season 2 Episode 10]

Review: The 100 Girlfriends Who Really, Really, Really, Really, REALLY Love You (Season 2, Episode 10)

A Harem Comedy That Defies Expectations

If you thought harem anime couldn’t get any crazier, The 100 Girlfriends Who Really, Really, Really, Really, REALLY Love You is here to prove you wrong. Season 2, Episode 10 continues the absurd yet endearing journey of Aijo Rentaro, the unlucky-in-love protagonist who’s now juggling a growing list of soulmates—each with their own quirks, charms, and, well, existential crises if he doesn’t date them.

Produced by Bibury Animation Studios, this show is a wild ride of meta humor, over-the-top romance, and a surprising amount of heart. Episode 10, in particular, delivers exactly what fans have come to expect: chaotic energy, fourth-wall breaks, and a new girlfriend who somehow fits into Rentaro’s ever-expanding harem.

The Plot Thickens (Or Just Gets More Ridiculous)

For those unfamiliar, the premise is as bonkers as it sounds: Rentaro, after being rejected 100 times, learns that his failures were due to a cosmic error. A god grants him 100 soulmates—yes, 100—but with a catch: if he doesn’t date all of them, they’ll die. (Because, you know, gods love dramatic stakes.)

Episode 10 introduces Kurumi, a middle schooler with a fiery temper and an insatiable appetite. Fans on MyAnimeList had mixed reactions—some loved her chaotic energy, while others raised eyebrows at the age gap (though, let’s be real, this show has already crossed every boundary imaginable). One user joked: “If you’re going to have 100 girlfriends, you gotta get creative with the tropes.”

The episode’s highlight? A food festival showdown where Kurumi’s stomach becomes the ultimate weapon. The absurdity is cranked up to eleven, with competitors ranging from gorilla-strength eaters to a literal food-sucking robot. It’s pure, unapologetic madness—and it works.

Fan Reactions: Love It or Hate It, You Can’t Ignore It

Scrolling through discussions, it’s clear this show has a dedicated (and slightly unhinged) fanbase. Here’s what stood out:

1. The Meta Humor – Fans adore how the show constantly winks at the audience. One Reddit user noted: “It’s like Looney Tunes with more kissing.” The fourth-wall breaks, like Rentaro apologizing for spoilers, add to the charm.

2. The Girlfriend Count – Some viewers are skeptical about the “100” goal. A MyAnimeList commenter mused: “At this rate, Rentaro will be dating the school nurse, the janitor, and possibly a sentient vending machine.” Yet, others argue the sheer absurdity is the point.

3. The New Additions – Kurumi’s introduction sparked debates. While some called her “problematic” (given her age), others defended the show’s equal-opportunity chaos: “If we’re okay with a 30-year-old aggressively pursuing him, a middle schooler is just another Tuesday.”

4. The Kissing Scenes – A recurring gag involves Rentaro kissing each girlfriend, complete with Food Wars-style reactions. One fan joked: “If this keeps up, the finale will just be a 45-minute kissing montage.”

Why It Works (Despite It All)

At its core, The 100 Girlfriends thrives because it doesn’t take itself seriously. It’s a parody of harem tropes, embracing the ridiculousness with a self-aware grin. Rentaro, despite his impossible situation, remains a likable protagonist—genuinely caring for each girlfriend, even as the numbers climb.

The animation, courtesy of Bibury, keeps the energy high, with exaggerated expressions and fluid action (yes, even in a food-eating contest). The voice acting is top-notch, especially Karane’s tsundere outbursts, which fans adore.

Final Verdict: A Guilty Pleasure Done Right

If you’re looking for deep storytelling or moral complexity, this isn’t it. But if you want a show that’s unafraid to be stupid, sweet, and shamelessly over-the-top, The 100 Girlfriends delivers. Episode 10 is another hilarious entry, proving that even at girlfriend #10 (or is it #15 by now?), the madness is far from over.

As one fan perfectly put it: “This show is a train wreck, but I can’t look away.” And honestly? Same.

Rating: 8/10 – Ridiculous, romantic, and relentlessly entertaining.
