Hi guys sorry I'm sort of new to this site and I'm sorry if I posted it on a wrong thread/ topic but I have a question about a certain chapter and it's really really REALLY bothering me. In the "A Happy Todai Wedding" chapter, (ch.114), why doesn't Keitaro pick Naru first when he had to choose which girl he wants to take into the Todai ruins when in the previous chapters, (ch112), he explained to Naru the she was the only one that his heart belonged to. Sorry it just bothers me for some reason. Please can someone tell me why he chose the other girls first other than picking Naru first? Haha thank you
Seriously though, I think it's meant that he misinterpreted Shinobu's taking the initiative in forcing the ultimatum that he choose one girl to mean she wanted to go with him, and from there it was just each girl pushed him to the next one in line, and Naru was at the opposite end of it. Still, it is a rather stupid joke, especially considering ch 113 was pretty much him rejecting all of the other girls to get to Naru.
