Review: The 100 Girlfriends Who Really, Really, Really, Really, Really Love You – Season 2, Episode 12 – A Tsundere Spirit Bomb and Peak Comedy

If there’s one anime that knows how to turn absurdity into art, it’s The 100 Girlfriends Who Really, Really, Really, Really, Really Love You (or Hyakkano for short). The second season’s finale, Episode 12, is a masterclass in over-the-top humor, heartfelt moments, and shameless pop culture references—especially if you’re a Dragon Ball fan. After binge-watching this episode and diving into fan discussions, it’s clear that Hyakkano isn’t just a harem comedy; it’s a love letter to chaos, tsunderes, and the power of nakama (friendship, for the uninitiated).


The Plot: A Tsundere in Distress

The episode centers around Karane, the series’ resident tsundere, who loses her signature “tsundere-ness” after a bizarre turn of events. For those unfamiliar, a tsundere is a character who acts tough or cold but secretly has a soft side—think of someone who says, “It’s not like I did this for you or anything… baka!” Now, imagine that trait being treated like a Dragon Ball power-up. That’s exactly what happens here.

Rentarou, the protagonist with a heart bigger than his harem, devises a plan to restore Karane’s tsundere energy by channeling the “tsundere rays” from his other girlfriends. The result? A Dragon Ball Z-style “Spirit Bomb” sequence where Rentarou and the girls literally shoot beams of tsundere energy at Karane. Yes, you read that right. And yes, it’s as glorious as it sounds.


Fan Reactions: Pure, Unfiltered Joy

The online discourse around this episode is a mix of laughter, disbelief, and sheer admiration for the audacity of the show. Here’s what fans are saying:

  1. The Dragon Ball References Are Legendary
    From the music cues to the characters cosplaying as DBZ icons (Mimimi as Bulma, Nano as Android 18), the episode is packed with nods to the classic series. One fan joked, “We never knew tsundere-ness could be restored by shooting beams, but hey, Hyakkano makes it work!”

  2. Rentarou’s Speech: A Wall of Text
    The episode adapts a famous manga panel where Rentarou delivers an exhaustive monologue about his love for all 11 girlfriends. The anime handles this by speeding up the dialogue while the text scrolls in the background—a clever workaround that had fans in stitches. One commenter wrote, “I spent more time reading than watching, but it was worth every second.”

  3. Karane’s Redemption
    Fans adored the focus on Karane, especially after her “deredere” (overly sweet) phase. “Welcome back, tsundere queen,” one fan cheered, while another added, “The ‘tsundere Spirit Bomb’ was the dumbest, most brilliant thing I’ve ever seen.”

  4. Meta Humor and Fourth-Wall Breaks
    The episode doesn’t shy away from poking fun at itself. Characters blame the anime staff for pacing issues, mock the author’s fanservice, and even reference Crunchyroll’s subtitles struggling to keep up with Rentarou’s rapid-fire speech. As one fan put it, “This rivals Gintama in self-awareness.”


Why This Episode Works

  1. It Embraces the Absurd
    Hyakkano thrives on its willingness to go all-in on ridiculous concepts. A tsundere power-up? Sure. A Dragon Ball parody? Why not? The show’s confidence in its own absurdity makes it endlessly entertaining.

  2. Heart Amidst the Chaos
    Beneath the jokes, there’s genuine emotion. Rentarou’s dedication to his girlfriends isn’t just played for laughs—it’s the core of the series. As one fan noted, “The way the girls rallied to help Karane was oddly touching… in between all the screaming and energy beams.”

  3. Animation and Voice Acting
    Bibury Animation Studios (known for The Quintessential Quintuplets) delivers vibrant, expressive visuals, while voice actor Katou Wataru (Rentarou) deserves applause for his rapid-fire delivery. Fans are already calling for him to win “Best Male VA of the Year.”


Final Verdict: Peak Rom-Com? Absolutely.

Episode 12 is a fitting end to a season that doubled down on everything fans love about Hyakkano: over-the-top gags, heartfelt moments, and a cast of characters who are impossible not to root for. While some critics argue the second season didn’t quite match the first’s highs (citing weaker new girlfriends or overuse of Kusuri’s drugs), the finale proves the series is still firing on all cylinders.

As one fan perfectly summarized:
“PEAK rom-com I am afraid. Hundreds of 4th wall breaks and so many DB references lmao. This rivals Gintama for sure. I need Season 3!!!”

And honestly? Same. Here’s hoping Rentarou’s quest for 100 soulmates continues soon.

Rating: 9/10 – A hilarious, heartfelt, and unapologetically wild ride.
