This show has no right being as good as it is

Apart from what the title describes, what is it about?

That's actually pretty much it. Kid is told he has 100 soulmates and let the fun begin. Definitely ecchi but nowhere as lewd as Immoral Guild.

Cool, thanks for the answer!

Noteable differences to most harem anime are:

  1. The protagonist does actually start dating every member of the harem instead of keeping the status vague.
  2. The protagonist is dedicated to his girlfrieds to the point that viewer want to cheer him on.
  3. The girlfriends have quirks that seem flat when written down but are well executed. Especially in later episodes where crazy plot lines are introduced.
  4. After the initial episodes it becomes an absurdist comedy with well done references to other media.(Misson Impossible, Resident evil, Pokemon). Like a plot hook might call an alien invasion and it gets resolved by having the alien leader being one of the soulmates of the protagonist.

What a fantastic answer! Thank you for taking the time to write that out, I appreciate you. Do you have a favourite charity I could donate to as a way of saying thank you?
