I wouldn't call it wish fulfillment simply because a lot of his girlfriends are waaaay too crazy for me to ever want to deal with them. And deal with them he does. If anything I would say it's a story about a guy grinding himself to dust to try to be the best boyfriend possible for dozens of very different girls. Maybe the first few chapters feel like wish fulfillment, but it very quickly goes from "damn, I wish *I* were dating them" to "damn, I wish *I* were dating him".
Anyways, beyond that it's just really impressive that someone is trying to make a story with 101 main characters and they're actually doing a pretty decent job of it so far. Granted Rentarou has only met 1/3 of his soulmates so far in the manga, and it looks like it's already starting to become difficult for the mangaka to give everyone the screentime they deserve, but still!

That was just the impression the title gave me when I first heard of it. I just read the synopsis and it sounds more on the bonkers unhinged side of things than I was thinking.
