I'm going to be honest, I did not expect to like this one as much as I do. This sh*t is effing weird. And I'm going to level with y'all: the first book is kind of trash. It's your generic format of "introduce fantasy creature: creampie". Okay, maybe that's not a generic format that's ever existed before, but it is true in a harem story often the first several chapters will be front loaded with introductions. It's just, this story goes about these intros in the most insane ways imaginable.
Basic recap of the synopsis, protag has been identified as the father of a future
...
"Chosen One". Women selected from the various realms and fantasy kingdoms are sent to mate with him in order to give birth to this Chosen One. Problem is, our guy a) has a condition where contact with the opposite sex causes him to faint and b) he already has his Childhood Friend he's in love with and wants to be with her. However, each of these mothers-to-be gets around this problem by simply causing him to faint and then... f*ing him anyway.
I could imagine people finding this series offensive, which is why I've elected Mixed Feelings as my recommendation. If you feel like what's happening to the male protagonist is r*pe, and that bothers you, probably don't read it. Because yeah, what's happening to him is r*pe. But I feel like this story manages to achieve the difficult to master comedic trope called "Crosses the Line Twice" where you take a taboo concept or inappropriate joke and double, triple, quadruple down to absurdity to the point that it just becomes funny. Maybe I'm a bad person, but the escalating absurdity of the execution of the premise had me laughing my ass off in the later books. It just gets... so insane. I can't really get into it because it's spoilery, but let's just say it gets creative.
Aside from the glaring issue with the fundamental premise of the story, the women are pretty much all very underdeveloped. They begin to work better later on as a collective of archetypes bouncing off each other, not a single one of them really being able to carry anything on their own (probably why the first several chapters are so ass). The Angel character is probably the most developed, but even she's doesn't have much to her beyond wanting to get knocked up like all the rest. Still... I like this dumb series. I'll look forward to more as they come out.
