Description
Rentarō Aijō endured 100 romantic rejections from infancy through junior high graduation, beginning when an eight-month-old girl crawled away after his babyhood confession. Each failure drove him to sharpen his academic, physical, and social skills, yet success eluded him until high school. After his 100th rejection, the God of Love manifested at a shrine, confessing a cosmic error during *Castle in the Sky* distracted divine clerks—destining Rentarō for 100 soulmates instead of one. The god warned that rejecting any soulmate would doom them to fatal misfortune to balance cosmic destiny.
Physically, Rentarō sports short dark brown hair, brown eyes (reddish-brown in anime), and prominent thick eyebrows. His standard attire is the Ohananomitsu High uniform: white button-up shirt, navy blue blazer and trousers, red necktie, and black loafers.
Rentarō embodies extreme kindness, unshakeable integrity, and fierce protectiveness. He rejected deceiving his first two girlfriends, Hakari Hanazono and Karane Inda, instead confessing openly and vowing to make them happy. He routinely prioritizes their well-being over his discomfort, like supporting Mimimi Utsukushisugi’s stage kiss despite personal aversion—though his girlfriends often notice his distress and demand honesty.
When safeguarding loved ones, he achieves reality-bending feats: superhuman speed, body distortion, self-cloning, defying deities, or constructing city projects in minutes. Conversely, threats to his girlfriends ignite volcanic rage, triggering disproportionate retaliation—dual-wielding shopping carts against harassers or contorting grotesquely to intimidate the God of Love.
He enforces strict boundaries against sexual advances, deploying pre-planned countermeasures against lust-driven soulmates like Hakari or Momoha Bonnouji and expressing remorse if compromised. Though disliking cross-dressing, he complies if it benefits a girlfriend, such as indulging Hahari Hanazono’s interests.
He forges unique bonds with each soulmate, resolving personal struggles through empathy: creating a text-to-speech app from Shizuka Yoshimoto’s favorite book to bypass her muteness, helping Nano Eiai accept emotional inefficiency, or restoring Karane’s tsundere confidence. He calls his polyamorous unit the "Rentarō Family," proposing marriage to all 25 girlfriends at a mock ceremony. He deliberately conceals the fatal rejection consequence to ensure their feelings remain authentic, not obligation-bound.
His extended family includes cousin Chiyo Iin, whom he dated after her heartfelt confession despite initial kinship hesitation. He also saved uncle Hiro Iin from a tanker truck in childhood, inspiring Hiro’s later matchmaking efforts.
