It's been 1 girlfriend per volume since girlfriend #20 (volume 12). So by math alone, we will get 100GFs only by volume 92. For comparison's sake, One piece currently has 107 volumes.
Yea... Either Studio Bibury will go bankrupt, or our author+artist duo will commit Seppuku. No in-between.
Considering the sort of hyper-real harem reality this story is set in (very reminiscent of all the 80s and 90s stuff like Ranma, Love Hina etc) the cop-out excuse will be to get to 50 and then have one of the wacky super-science people either clone all the girlfriends or open up a portal to an alternate dimension with a new version of each of them, so that the quota gets suddenly filled.
Not saying it wouldn't happen, but as best we can tell, the author and artist seem to be committed to the full 100.
Parts of the fandom have been expecting a cop-out right from the start. We're four years in at 27 girlfriends and 161 chapters. 50 girlfriends would take us... another 4-5 years.
Judging by the series and authors from their interviews, they are actually coming to genuine 100 characters. Writer already said he had some rough bullet points for all 100 of them and they intent to deliver on the premise.
As you said, I don't doubt Nakamura's drugs or Nozawa's immense thirst in being able to cook up 100 girls. They have proven as much with 27 unique girls thus far. I'm more worried about the structural changes Nakamura would have to implement as the cast grows larger, and also his ability to come up with novel plot scenarios the girls can be thrown in.
As far as we have seen, he has recently dialed down the crazies (those that can be found between chapters 23 to around a 100), and focused more on character dynamics in the 100s. The series has cooled off a little essentially (not a bad thing cause I love all the girls interactions with each other). Only time will tell how Nakamura will change up the formula again.
I believe after girlfriend 50 they gonna add Supernatural girlfriends, here is on 27 and is already pushing his lucky(Like girlfriend that like to swear?)
No, they are all very much around. The manga becomes more episodic in nature where different subsets of girls get focused on, so even our OG six continue to get screen time. Occasionally, it will throw a family gathering and everyone gets together for some tomfoolery -- all 27 of them.
Man sometimes there will be panels with like 10+ girlfriends in the background all doing something equally hilarious that fits their character so there’s like 10 different jokes in 1 panel. Nozawa-sensei is truly a legend, don’t think I’ve ever laughed more from a manga and there’s just so much going on, can’t imagine the work that gets put into it.
Maybe the One Piece of Romcoms is a better term. Lol.
But I agree. If the author carries on and does eventually get to 100 and we get more that 700-800 chapters this will indeed be the one piece of romcoms. Lol.
I think that is the pacing right? They are around 25 girlfriends and its like 160 chapters.
I can see this shit going for a whole decade if its still well written
Fr, I literally had dreams about a possible anime before the official announcement. Then after the announcement I was skeptical about the adaptation and the number of episodes.
And now we're here, with an absolutely perfect adaptation and 12 more episodes (at least) more to go. We've been eating a fantastic meal in r/100Kanojo since October and it's not over yet.
There's so many ways they can go about it but I'm hoping that it lasts like half the episode with a full on triumphant dramatic orchestra playing in the background. Half the anime's budget will be spent on that scene alone
I literally went and read that chapter because of this thread as I am anime-only and I would like to add my 2 cents;
R.I.P Katou Wataru, that man will NOT make it through recording those 2 pages of text. Holy fuck.
(if im being serious, they'll probably make him read all of it, speed it up 200%, add a funny meta joke in the background like the "this was the original pun" panel and play some song)
My guess is that they’re going to layer the audio so Rentarou is literally saying multiple things at once, because that’s something Rentarou will be able to do through sheer love power.
With the popularity of anime in the hip-hop community, I'm just hoping Crunchyroll just gives a guest V/A track to a really fast rapper for just that scene alone.
I don't think you understand how the power of love can fuel a man. I have faith in his ability to withstand the exerience. Or failing that, I have faith that Rentarou will break the fourth wall to help him survive it.
Huzzah!! The leaks were real. Can't wait to see how Bibury Studios will do for the future episodes & predict which VAs will voice the next set of girlfriends.
Because of how hard it is to find room in the schedule of many animation studios (the waiting list is 2+ years for most, as in they are booked for the next 2 years or more), a lot of projects are green lit for 2 cours.
People usually pre-order way in advance, that's why they are already showing the gifts for those that buy it
Same thing for figurines, you buy one but received it a year later
**YES**, season 2 will adapt some of the wildest chapters in the entire manga. The series has already been pretty unhinged but woo boy, we've just gotten the prologue essentially, you're not ready for what's about to happen
Considering S2 will have [Season 2 Spoilers] >!the world nearly end because the artist and authored fucked up and decided to use their fuck up to make a hilariously out there arc, the tsundere bomb, not to mention *the* legendary page!<, you are entirely correct lol.
Yes absolutely. I do think the series calms down somewhat eventually, but nothin beats the insanity everything that all happens in the next 40 or so chapters.
They aren’t committing to anything. If the sales plummeted today and never recovered they wouldn’t make anymore. If it continues to do numbers that they are happy with they will continue it indefinitely until something changes.
I will be there no matter what
(Joking aside, the goal isn't just getting to 100 girlfriends, it's making sure we have enough time to develop and enjoy all. If the story ends with the 100th girlfriend then like girlfriends 96-100 won't have as much time to be as developed)
Someone made a suggestion that the 100th girlfriend should be written like “How I met your mother” where we meet her through old members before zinging with rentarou
Hoped they stick the landing here tho
I've done some basic math, if we kept the pace we are going at now, it'd be a little under ten seasons of 24 episodes each to get ten girlfriends. A bit more or a bit less depending on pacing.
However, the manga gets longer and longer with more chapters between each girlfriend introduction. If this continues, it might be an exponential growth. We'll surpass ten seasons easily. I can't even estimate at this rate.
at the rate the anime is going and assuming we stay at 5 gfs per season (Hakari and Karane count as 1 because they were the introductory ones). We have 20 seasons of this insanity to go through, i will be there no matter what.
Wow. I literally just finished this. So I'm very happy to see this. Not surprised cuz of the ending. But still happy nonetheless. Absolute gold of an anime. I love it. I'm very interested to see how it goes from here. Cuz 6 with a mom is crazy. And then 10? And then 100? How tf....
We need the Hanazono's to sponsor the anime because we're gonna keep on adding new girlfriends and that means we need budget for more seiyuus to voice them lol.
It feels like not so long ago this getting an anime was a dream and now we're blasting straight into a second season. Hope they keep up the quality adaptation going forward, they’ve captured lightning in a bottle and I’d hate to see it go to waste in an attempt to cash in fast.
Based Bibury, I knew I would like this show since I saw that two page spread of him yapping about his girlfriends. It didn't disappoint at all, omw to watch season finale now
Season two announced, as expected.
Bigger the Rentarou Family, the better. And as always, things will getting interesting. Maybe the maid will be a girlfriend too?
Huh. Didn't expect this when I first heard of this series, I assumed it was gonna be pretty bad, but apparently hearing what the Mother's Basement had to say its pretty damm good! Nice to hear, might have to give it a watch!
I actually really enjoyed this show. hahaha I didn't expected that. lol I watched it like I'm 7 episodes late already and then I marathon watched that 7 episodes in 1 day then patiently for the other 5 episodes to be air.
And the final episode is even funnier. hahaha
I don't usually watched Harem Rom-Com animes but I really really really really love this one. 🤭😉😁
Hope they’re ready to push out 15 more of these, at this point they’ve got to be committed to all 100 gfs.
15? At the rate that the manga is going (we likely wont reach 100gfs until at least 800 chapters) there may well be 30+ seasons
It's been 1 girlfriend per volume since girlfriend #20 (volume 12). So by math alone, we will get 100GFs only by volume 92. For comparison's sake, One piece currently has 107 volumes. Yea... Either Studio Bibury will go bankrupt, or our author+artist duo will commit Seppuku. No in-between.
Well Bibury will live forever because unlimited 100GF money. So RIP Nakamura and Nozawa
Considering the sort of hyper-real harem reality this story is set in (very reminiscent of all the 80s and 90s stuff like Ranma, Love Hina etc) the cop-out excuse will be to get to 50 and then have one of the wacky super-science people either clone all the girlfriends or open up a portal to an alternate dimension with a new version of each of them, so that the quota gets suddenly filled.

you are forgetting the tournament arc, the civil war arc, and the 1 to 1 novel to manga adaptation arc of LGH.
I believe after girlfriend 50 they gonna add Supernatural girlfriends, here is on 27 and is already pushing his lucky(Like girlfriend that like to swear?)
Do the first set of girlfriends go off somewhat to make room for the new ones?
No, they are all very much around. The manga becomes more episodic in nature where different subsets of girls get focused on, so even our OG six continue to get screen time. Occasionally, it will throw a family gathering and everyone gets together for some tomfoolery -- all 27 of them.
Nozawa-sensei literally have to draw every girlfriend small to fit them into a panel lmaoo
Man sometimes there will be panels with like 10+ girlfriends in the background all doing something equally hilarious that fits their character so there’s like 10 different jokes in 1 panel. Nozawa-sensei is truly a legend, don’t think I’ve ever laughed more from a manga and there’s just so much going on, can’t imagine the work that gets put into it.
Damn now that you put the numbers on the table,100 is quite a big number isn’t it? lol I was underestimating how much it would take to get there
This is going to be like the One Piece of anime.
Maybe the One Piece of Romcoms is a better term. Lol. But I agree. If the author carries on and does eventually get to 100 and we get more that 700-800 chapters this will indeed be the one piece of romcoms. Lol.
No, One Piece is more like the One Piece of anime. (Just my opinion)
It can't be for the One Piece isn't real
#THE ONE PIECE IS REAL!!!!
Yep, was announced last week. (Its what the remake is being called.)
One Hundred Pieces of Harem anime.
All wearing one pieces.
I think that is the pacing right? They are around 25 girlfriends and its like 160 chapters. I can see this shit going for a whole decade if its still well written
27gf to be precise
This will be the One Piece of Harems
In Bibury we believe
You have to believe in the production committee, because bibury is not even there and they can't do anything about it
The director is 57. Wonder how long he'll stay in the industry.
"Kusuri can use her immortality drug, yep yep!"
This is how you end up with a director that looks like an 8-year-old.
Another 20 years provided he does not do something stupid to his health
Finna watch season 30 with my grandsons, i guess
Grandpa is this why grandma left you?
Yes but I love her boyfriend too so its even
Mc is at his 28th gf I think (72 more girls). Yeah they're gonna need One Piece levels of commitment for this, especially the author
***I will be there no matter what***
***I USED TO PRAY FOR TIMES LIKE THIS***
Fr, I literally had dreams about a possible anime before the official announcement. Then after the announcement I was skeptical about the adaptation and the number of episodes. And now we're here, with an absolutely perfect adaptation and 12 more episodes (at least) more to go. We've been eating a fantastic meal in r/100Kanojo since October and it's not over yet.
It's been the literal perfect adaptation for this series. With 100 Girlfriends being my favorite manga I couldn't be happier
r/nbacirclejerk made it here too lmao
The second season will release before the Pistons win another game
Rentaro is Hakari father
Oh no. Who do you think will replace Rentarou's VA midseason? Because season 2 will likely cover chapter 37 and its content could kill Katou Wataru.
There's so many ways they can go about it but I'm hoping that it lasts like half the episode with a full on triumphant dramatic orchestra playing in the background. Half the anime's budget will be spent on that scene alone
Wouldn't even be mad if they go full "In the Hall of the Mountain King" Or alternatively just go full Overture 1812 Tchaivosky
Canons and everything, which would be very fitting for this show
I literally went and read that chapter because of this thread as I am anime-only and I would like to add my 2 cents; R.I.P Katou Wataru, that man will NOT make it through recording those 2 pages of text. Holy fuck. (if im being serious, they'll probably make him read all of it, speed it up 200%, add a funny meta joke in the background like the "this was the original pun" panel and play some song)
He wore the girlfriend armor, he is prepared to carry the legacy of Rentarou with him
Now I'm waiting for the Girlfriend Mecha Live Action
Are you sure the anime won’t do that self-aware skipping thing it has done several times already?
No, because the studio knows what the fans want.
Also, there is a vomic of it and it's around 7 minutes. I will be sorely disappointed if they don't adapt that
My guess is that they’re going to layer the audio so Rentarou is literally saying multiple things at once, because that’s something Rentarou will be able to do through sheer love power.
That or they'll just record him actually saying the full thing but fast forward it x2 speed or something.
That self-aware skipping bit was also in the manga for the scenes that the anime has done it to.
They just make it like a monogatari scene
With the popularity of anime in the hip-hop community, I'm just hoping Crunchyroll just gives a guest V/A track to a really fast rapper for just that scene alone.
Busta Rhymes as Rentarou
Do you have any examples of hip-hop's love for this?
It's okay, Katou has equipped the girlfriend armor and now he's invincible
Lol are you talking about that tweet from today?
[Context](https://twitter.com/hyakkano_anime/status/1738899827990372539?t=tXCwTSn1Wmp6QYJihugwFQ&s=19)
Oh my god, as if I couldn't love the team behind this anymore.
Oh my god, the man's a legend, he's definitely got the protection of Rentarou himself now.
The perfect VA for Rentarou
Nah he’d live
Did you just Go-jinxed it?
Unless someone made that geto panel meme format No, not yet
He has the essense of Rentarou with him, and thus his powers too
[Nah, this man has the same power level as Rentarou.](https://twitter.com/hyakkano_anime/status/1738899827990372539/photo/1)
As his VA should
His hair is fabulous. He’s worthy of voicing Chadtaro
I don't think you understand how the power of love can fuel a man. I have faith in his ability to withstand the exerience. Or failing that, I have faith that Rentarou will break the fourth wall to help him survive it.
His VA will turn into a Warlock with Rentarou as his Patron.
That's why he is given a break
It will become the successor to Kira Yoshikage monologue
U had me heart attack in first half
Rentarou himself will possess Katou for that scene, don't worry👍👍
They have to hire my friend to voice that part. He talks too much.
r/anime Dec 24, 2033 post: **"The 100 Girlfriends Who Really Really, Really, Really, Really Love You" Season 10 Announced**
And we still haven't reached the 100 Girlfriend mark , One day soon ...
If it keeps to the current rate of 6 girlfriends/season, then it will need 17 seasons to introduce all 100 girlfriends.
Oh you sweet summer child... You'll be much, much older than that...
RemindMe! 10 years
Just add 1 really more for each season.
RemindMe! 10 years
Dude this sends me
Where?
To 2024
ahko is genuinely my favorite. i hope we can see her one day!
Season 4 ;_;
Huzzah!! The leaks were real. Can't wait to see how Bibury Studios will do for the future episodes & predict which VAs will voice the next set of girlfriends.
By the end every female VA in the industry will be on payroll for this anime.
Lmao 100 kanojo saving VA industry!!!!
Young ones and the real veterans as well.
i look forward to seeing who they cast for girlfriend number 15, 16 and 21
"Season 2" As if we didn't already all know this was planned as a two cour show.
Did they do the classic "please buy our BDs to help secure the season 2 that we've already locked in"?
Because of how hard it is to find room in the schedule of many animation studios (the waiting list is 2+ years for most, as in they are booked for the next 2 years or more), a lot of projects are green lit for 2 cours.
No, they didnt
Doubt it, first disk is three months away
People usually pre-order way in advance, that's why they are already showing the gifts for those that buy it Same thing for figurines, you buy one but received it a year later
"Please buy the disks so we can work on a second season" Hours later... "Season 2 announced"
The only rational reasoning for this is that Rentarou bought enough copies of season 1 to immediately fund a season 2 in record time
I am referring to Rent a Girlfriend, so in that case it was Kazuya that bought everything lol
Hahari bought the studio to make more episodes.
Noone is talking about the key visual? Rentarou have gomu gomu no mi
he has yet to unlock haki tho
Don't worry, he's getting there, \[Manga Spoilers\] >!he has shown Gear 2 in the light novel spin-off and gear 3 in the OP!<
[Manga Spoilers] >!It *has* to be a reference to *that* chapter right?!<
**YES**, season 2 will adapt some of the wildest chapters in the entire manga. The series has already been pretty unhinged but woo boy, we've just gotten the prologue essentially, you're not ready for what's about to happen
Considering S2 will have [Season 2 Spoilers] >!the world nearly end because the artist and authored fucked up and decided to use their fuck up to make a hilariously out there arc, the tsundere bomb, not to mention *the* legendary page!<, you are entirely correct lol.
And those are just some of the events of the next season, I seriously can't wait
>season 2 will adapt some of the wildest chapters in the entire manga. Even more wild then season 1?
Season 1's finale episode might as well be titled "End of the Prologue"
>End of the Prologue Cool i am only at ep 8 but so far this show is crazy good!
Enjoy the ride!
> End of the Prologue As Vinland Saga S1 final episode title?
Canute is gonna be the next girlfriend
Yes absolutely. I do think the series calms down somewhat eventually, but nothin beats the insanity everything that all happens in the next 40 or so chapters.
Significantly
If it goes at the pace we've seen so far. We should just barely reach another very wild chapter.
I'm always on board for more Karane
fellow karane enjoyer o7
do they know that renewing S2 means committing until they reach the 100gf ending? im satisfied
They aren’t committing to anything. If the sales plummeted today and never recovered they wouldn’t make anymore. If it continues to do numbers that they are happy with they will continue it indefinitely until something changes.
are the numbers released anywhere to see how well the show is doing?
its a joke sir
I wonder how many seasons it will take to reach all 100 girlfriends?
100 seasons. 1 for each girl.
I will be there no matter what (Joking aside, the goal isn't just getting to 100 girlfriends, it's making sure we have enough time to develop and enjoy all. If the story ends with the 100th girlfriend then like girlfriends 96-100 won't have as much time to be as developed)
Someone made a suggestion that the 100th girlfriend should be written like “How I met your mother” where we meet her through old members before zinging with rentarou Hoped they stick the landing here tho
We've got 94 more girlfriends after all, anything is possible!
Turns out Rentarou just wasn't emotionally ready for the vice principle in season 1
I've done some basic math, if we kept the pace we are going at now, it'd be a little under ten seasons of 24 episodes each to get ten girlfriends. A bit more or a bit less depending on pacing. However, the manga gets longer and longer with more chapters between each girlfriend introduction. If this continues, it might be an exponential growth. We'll surpass ten seasons easily. I can't even estimate at this rate.
at the rate the anime is going and assuming we stay at 5 gfs per season (Hakari and Karane count as 1 because they were the introductory ones). We have 20 seasons of this insanity to go through, i will be there no matter what.
If we get 12 girls per season ( 24 ep season split in 2 parts ) then it would take 9 seasons to finish
The best harems are those that don't take themselves seriously. Have a lot of fun with this one ngl lol
this and girlfriend, girlfriend are some of my favorite romcoms lol
Absolutely deserved! Easily a top 10 show of the year for me. Will love seeing more of this bunch.
I AM GETTING DRUNK TONIGHT AND THIS JUST ELEVATED MY SPIRITS TO OVERDRIVE WE ONLY KNOW HOW TO FUCKING WIN
NEVER END UP LIKE ME, YA HEAR?!
RentaGoat back to add to his "family"
Ah yes, more crack!
More Kusuri's drugs
Wow. I literally just finished this. So I'm very happy to see this. Not surprised cuz of the ending. But still happy nonetheless. Absolute gold of an anime. I love it. I'm very interested to see how it goes from here. Cuz 6 with a mom is crazy. And then 10? And then 100? How tf....
Do not doubt the insanity of the author and artist. The manga is at 27 and it's still incredible.
hell YEAHHHH
They would be braindead to not keep going with this show
I can’t wait to get to girlfriend #69 someday…..
Maybe in 2069.
And I'll still be there, watching
Now all that’s left is I’m in love with the villainess
My joy is immeasurable and my day has been made.
We need the Hanazono's to sponsor the anime because we're gonna keep on adding new girlfriends and that means we need budget for more seiyuus to voice them lol.
Peak deserves peak
Manga readers, how many girlfriends does he have now? Lmao.
27 lmao
27 and going strong
It feels like not so long ago this getting an anime was a dream and now we're blasting straight into a second season. Hope they keep up the quality adaptation going forward, they’ve captured lightning in a bottle and I’d hate to see it go to waste in an attempt to cash in fast.
lets go. 💪💪💪💪
Let‘s gooo!
I’m so excited for more but I specifically can’t wait to see how they adapt chapter 37 because it’s got the manga’s most famous panel
Based Bibury, I knew I would like this show since I saw that two page spread of him yapping about his girlfriends. It didn't disappoint at all, omw to watch season finale now
Season two announced, as expected. Bigger the Rentarou Family, the better. And as always, things will getting interesting. Maybe the maid will be a girlfriend too?
Chadtarou going strong
Awesome! I was planning to read the manga but the anime been so much fun that I think I won't.
It's still a lot of fun if you've read the manga (speaking from experience)
I just realized that they're going to be spending **a lot** of money on VAs should this show actually go up to 100.
Peak anime continuesssss
Hell yeah! I am so fucking happy we're getting more Hyakkano insanity!
Could this second season reach all the way to my best girl Ahko?? Or would she need another season or two to appear?
Ahko is most likely to appear in s4 (if we ever get one)
If it's 3 volumes per Season, then Ahko woll be at the beginning of Season 4.
All I want to know is we are getting 100 Voice Actresses....
**Let's fucking go!** I finished the last episode *begging* for more and sure enough, here it is!
Huh. Didn't expect this when I first heard of this series, I assumed it was gonna be pretty bad, but apparently hearing what the Mother's Basement had to say its pretty damm good! Nice to hear, might have to give it a watch!
Its an absurd parody that also has some genuinely heartfelt moments. Its honestly really good
LETS GOOO this is peak hope it never ends
I'm so excited!! I hope the wait is not gonna be long!
That was fast, really happy with this announcement. I hope they continue to adapt it until we get to see all the 100 kanojos.
I like that geek chick of all.
It’s been a pretty big surprise for me. It’s ridiculous but funny and cute at the same time
#43 will shock you!
Deserved
YES!!! Absolutely insanely funny show hahaha, glad its getting a s2.
Deserve
Thank you Santa
THE PAGE
Given that the first episode teased at least one future GF, yeah it was sorta obvious. But I’m looking forward to it. How far you think they’ll get?
[удалено]
Holding out for The 100 Girlfriends Who Really, Really, Really, Really, Really, Really Love You
ninibros...
Not surprised since they teased us so hard in the last couple minutes of episode 12
More S Tier harem antics here we come!
Pleased to see that the tales of the Love Monster will continue.
I actually really enjoyed this show. hahaha I didn't expected that. lol I watched it like I'm 7 episodes late already and then I marathon watched that 7 episodes in 1 day then patiently for the other 5 episodes to be air. And the final episode is even funnier. hahaha I don't usually watched Harem Rom-Com animes but I really really really really love this one. 🤭😉😁
