Anyways, not doubting that Shannon was his first love, but I still don't think it was a very casual commitment, at best.

Right, but none of those people are characters. None of them are named or even referenced. The only actual character Battler is shown to have any connection to is Shannon, so the laws of narrative efficiency mean it could only possibly be Shannon he's even talking about. I'm just baffled that somebody would attempt to argue around what was made so incredibly apparent by Ryukishi. It's not like it was a mystery after ep4 or so. Hell, it was barely a mystery in ep1, you were just supposed to casually overlook it.
