Chapter 14

**The Holy War Filled With Love and the Soul** (愛と魂をかけた聖戦 *Ai to Tamashī o Kaketa Seisen*) is the fourteenth chapter of the *100 Kanojo* manga.

## Summary

Rentarou and his girlfriends are sat in the field of Rabuzono Flower Park on a date, a location that Hakari suggested. Over a speaker, an announcement is made informing people in the park that the “Bouquet Toss” will be happening today, and that those that wish to participate gather in the centre field. Hakari explains that the winner can take a commemorative photo with their lover in a special wedding dress, so the group head over to participate. She reveals that she has been dreaming of wearing the dress since she was younger and vows to make the dream come true no matter what.

Whilst waiting for the event to start, Rentarou overhears a woman ordering her subordinates to catch the bouquet even if it costs them their lives. Nano informs Rentarou that they are a bike gang named “The Gorira Alliance”, with the woman being the leader. Hakari suggests that the six of them cooperate to catch the bouquet and have a raffle later to decide who gets the photo, which the group agree to. Rentarou suggests to Shizuka that she cheers them on instead of participating due to her petite stature. He creates a banner using a towel with the name “Rentarou’s Family” on for her to use.

The bouquet is thrown, and crowds of people run to get it. Whilst running after it, Rentarou hears the sounds of people being hit behind him, despite the use of violence being prohibited. The Gorira Alliance claim to be doing some training during the bouquet toss, which is what is causing other people to be hit. The host, however, doesn’t state this is against the rules, due to being intimidated by the Gorira Alliance leader. Hakari nearly gets hit by one of the members, but Karane dashes in front her at the last second to protect her. She dons a jacket and headband, stolen from an unconscious member of the alliance, and states that she is now a part of the alliance. She uses this excuse to engage the leader in a fight, telling Rentarou and the others to get the bouquet whilst she holds her down.

The alliance performs a special move named “Gorira Storm” to move the bouquet towards them using a gust of wind. As the bouquet fly towards the group, Shizuka is spotted gliding next to it. The wind from the alliance’s move created enough wind to blow her into the air, resulting in her having to use the towel as a paraglider. She use’s her position to grab the bouquet but begins to fall as the towel glider stopped working after she let go. Nano, Hakari and Kusuri (in adult form) move to try and catch her, but they miss, causing her to bounce off their boobs. While this does break her fall, Shizuka still has momentum and would have hit the ground headfirst had Rentarou not slid in to catch her.

With victory secured, Hakari suggests that they play the king game to decide who gets the photo, the winner being the one who pulls the chopstick with the red mark. She reveals internally that this has all gone to plan and that she has secretly marked the winning chopstick with a tiny cut. She plans on pulling the winning chopstick after someone else has taken one to reduce suspicion. She asks Nano to pull first, with the idea being that she takes the one closest as its more efficient, but she suggests that they all take them at the same time. The group all take a chopstick before Hakari has the chance to process the situation. Despite this dilemma however, Hakari still comes out victorious.

Kusuri begins to have a tantrum because she wanted to take a picture with Rentarou. Despite it being her dream, Hakari offers to give the photo opportunity to Kusuri. She initially accepts it, but quickly changes her mind because she loves both Rentarou and Hakari, and seeing the two people she loves having their photo taken will make her super happy. Rentarou insists that they all have their photo taken together, which puzzles Karane as they take group photos all the time. After some persuasion however, they all have their photo taken together with Hakari in the wedding dress.

Hakari thanks Rentarou for giving her such joy since the day she met him. He responds by saying that the line was supposed to be for him. Hakari asks Rentarou if she can make one more selfish request from him, to which he happily accepts. Hakari asks Rentarou if he will break up with her.
