The Plot

To make up for the error, God grants Aijo one hundred dates, but the catch? If he doesn’t reciprocate their feelings, “they’ll die in horrible accidents.” Cue the downpour of confessions as girls pour their hearts out to Aijo.
What’s the issue? He can’t choose between the girls and certainly doesn’t want anyone to die! As lightning strikes with every potential soulmate, Aijo wonders: can one person truly love a hundred others?
