Logic doesn't apply normally to a story like this steeped in metaphor (which it was not subtle about).

This isn't just a wacky story about a guy getting a half dozen copies of his girlfriend with different personalities, it's a challenge to him to test if he can walk the walk and actually love all of the girl he had a crush on but hadn't even seen in years. Including the parts he may have romanticized over time, and the parts that changed while he wasn't there. To say even a single Karin is one he can't love is to deny the actual Karin.

People compare this to 100GF a lot but it honestly reminds me more of Uwagaki
Ah god, Uwagaki... christ, I remember that thing ripping my heart out.

Yeah I'm not surprised that people are comparing it to 100gf, but it's pretty clear what's going on here. There's even a really interesting wrinkle where he doesn't just have to prove himself, he also has the responsibility to keep all of her intact. Cause if he doesn't like one of them, they're... gone. Forever, and he would've taken a part of the woman he loves from her.

I'm curious as to how it will shake out. They all seem to understand that they're part of a whole, but it's always hard in these sorts of things to look at the parts coming together and not see loss. They're already more than one note characters, where putting them back into one would feel like losing them.

does the house just does a software update everytime a new karin appears and gains a new room lol? what about her, or ig their parents?
The entire universe is updated every time a new Karin appears. As can be observed by the fact that the MC and the Karins are the only people who think it's weird that there are now three identical twins with the same name in the same class.

Probably the same as the number of "Karin" rooms at their home.
Kinda want to know how can Karin parents able sustain all of them to make this work.
Maybe the parents are upgraded to higher-income positions or careers as necessary to cover the monthly expenses of each Karin.
