the perfect match. When he consults God to ask for an explanation ,
the Almighty explains to him that he has made a mistake with his destiny, but
now that it has been fixed, it turns out that a hundred girls will fall in love
with him as if they were soulmates. Unfortunately, because the concept
of “soulmate” is practically divine within destiny, the girl will die if
Rentaro rejects her.
This is how our protagonist's harem
journey begins, and where all the clichés of romantic comedies begin to arrive
in the form of new girlfriends. The perverted one, the tsundere one,
the loli one, the quiet one, etc. But the most recent episode brought
with it a new girlfriend: the MILF. This is Hahari Hanazono, the
mother of Hakari, another of Rentaro's girlfriends. Certainly the
revelation of her as the protagonist's soulmate and her eventual inclusion in
the harem took those who did not follow the original manga by surprise.

literally translates as “I bought today's ending, so you can do whatever you
want“, referring to the immense fortune that the character has.
