Have you ever wondered why every time February 14th approaches you have to grind for money like a kid in a candy store or stay holed up in your room because you’re forever alone? Well, depending on who you ask, it’s because a certain Christian married unauthorized people and deregistered from life. Or, like many others, it’s a Pagan holiday incorporated into everyday life. Either way, Valentine’s Day is a way to celebrate consumerism and love in all its forms. The more love you have in your life, the better. And no one knows that truth better than Rentarou Aijou of the hit movie 100 Girlfriends Really, Really, Really, Really, REALLY, Love You! and, if you missed that chapter, you’re in luck because 100 Girls’ Valentine’s Day themed pop-up shop is coming soon!
The temporary store is scheduled to operate from February 14 to February 25 and will be held at the event space in Shinjuku’s Marui Men (Shinjuku-ku, Tokyo). Featuring the Rentaru girls in maid outfits, this event has a waifu for everyone! From limited edition merchandise to photo shoots with life-size cutouts of Rentaro’s family, there’s enough to fill the void of an empty Valentine’s Day. After all, dates are expensive and only last a few hours, but waifu goods will follow you to the grave. Knowing that why not choose any of the following;
- Maid Acrylic Stand – ¥1760 (~12 USD)
- Tin Badge – ¥550 (~3.50 USD)
- Maid-style acrylic plate – ¥3300 (~22 USD)
- Keychain – ¥770 (~5.20 USD)
- Acrylic Chibi Stand – ¥770 (~$5.25 USD)
- Acrylic offering box – ¥3630 (~24.50 USD)
All purchases over 2000 Yen (~13.50 USD) come with a free Rentaro girls trading card. So why not skip the dinner dates, head to 100 Girls’ Valentine’s Day themed pop-up shop and support your favorite waifu?
100 Girlfriends airs on Crunchyroll as part of the Fall 2023 season and is described as follows: Rentaro Aijo was rejected 100 times in middle school. He visits a temple and prays for better luck in high school. The God of Love appears and promises that he will soon meet the 100 people he plans to date. But there’s a catch – once fate introduces someone to him, they both have to be happily in love. Otherwise, they will die. What will happen to Rentaro and his 100 girlfriends in high school?
