This is a very simple OP main character story with really good art. Character wanted to become an adventurer, but can't, and then his useless power ends up being the key for him to become the most OP character possible. Since the main characters almost don't have any flaws, and even the slight ones they have by being unexperienced or social awkwardness, never actually become an issue or might just disappear at some point as they get stronger. Keep in mind that when I write this, this manga is still being published and still didn't develop much (even though it's been an year since it
...
begun).
Since this is a VERY common type of story, there just isn't much more I could say that anyone that reads manga wouldn't already know. It's just the same as every other manga of this kind. But the story is is very decent, and I do care for the characters' motives.
It is very light hearted, and even though many are tagging it as "harem" (and it kinda follows that genre's formula), it is not ecchi by any means. And the mc is not an arrogant douche as they often are. So if you like silly and funny stories with good art, this might be a good choice for you.

Look... no one reads these kind of manga expecting for a very thoughtful story, right?The characters are actually funny, enjoyable, and overall it is a good experience. Most ecchi work the only thing I'm worried about is if it gets disgusting or criminal (which is a very common occurrence in japanese things), and this was not the case.
The art and the lewdness is actually really good, and it got me curious about the sequel. So... it's good on what it is supposed to be good, and not terrible in what it could be terrible at, like other works. I won't give it an amazing score
...
just because it is definitely not an outstanding piece of art. Just a cool dumb ecchi story to pass the time and make you horny.

I like studio Trigger animation very much, and their attention to details. That makes the bullshit ending a little more tolerable. That was my expectation when I got to this manga.
I truly think this manga is not good overall. It's rushed from the start, characters are VERY black or white, underdeveloped, and a lot of moments seem to have changed just to please the internet critics of the anime, without any actual reason in the story. The hated characters have less time and do even more hateful things, the beloved characters don't do any hard choices and are protected and righteous to the end. But
...
I guess that's what people wanted, and a lot of more random unneeded boobies (but without all the sex and actual adult content). It went from a complex adult story with weird teen innuendos to a full blown young male teen shonen.
For the most part I had the feeling that I only could follow this because I already had watched the anime, especially at the ending. Better ending? I don't know. I don't think it's an ending even. None of the characters story actually ended. It's just without all the bullshit, but also without all the development of the anime.
Maybe if this manga had time to develop like the anime did, maybe if it could exist out of the shadow of the anime (for better or for worse), or maybe if Trigger actually let Code 000 tell the story he wanted from the start. Maybe if wasn't one of the most expensive per chapter anime of recent years, they could better explain the whole VIRM space thing for another whole season, then maybe people would see the story differently.
Doesn't matter... it is what it is...
and some kids will just be toxic and try to kill random people because they didn't get what they wanted from people that never owed them anything...

I decided to write a review for this one because the hate train on this is nonsensical to me. The argument that "there is no story" is just false. This starts as a bland formulaic harem story, and progressively starts to get more complex as more characters get bits of info on different aspects of the big lie both the main characters are keeping. The crowdfunding arc is REALLY good, hitting the feels constantly, and the latest "pool trip" arc I did enjoy a lot (although it is a little too dragged out). In the latest arc, which I guess is probably the last before
...
an epilogue (as I am writing, the manga is still publishing), the author manage to gather a lot of open hooks left behind throughout the story, and did not shy away from a "shit hits the fan" situation, which I did think was going to happen. I think that's most I can talk about it without spoiling it too much.
Most just hate the story for two reasons: the moral argument of paying for a girlfriend service, NTR, and the whole web of lies, and because the MC is as stupid as one can be. Look... for me the story is better because of this reasons. It tackles a real thing, real situations, and real problematic characters. Some, like Ruka, seem to be very straightforward (and annoying and dumb), but turn out to be very nuanced and complex in later chapters. She's my favorite character btw.
To me the whole "MC is stupid" is a weird incel narrative young manga readers all over the world are developing, expecting their heroes to be "alpha", "chads", and whatever terms kids are using. Hate the "beta", "simps", "white knights", men have to be strong and assertive. This used to something just conservative old people seemed to care for, and manga used to be created exactly for people who can't fit in that narrative. Truth be told, the main public of this type of work is totally not this alpha stereotype. I guess the dumb MC character used to be relatable back in the 90s and 2000s, but online life gave most people this random impression that they are just perfect and supposedly can't accept relating to a not very social character. I also don't like the main character. He is creepy, dumb. That doesn't mean the story is automatically bad. In fact it is quite the opposite. When the character spends 5 chapters mustering courage to do something assertive, just to be shut down by some of the confident characters again and again, I can truly feel that.
I do like stories about manipulative characters, webs of lies, different minded characters, situations where no one's wrong/everyone's wrong so there is not a fully clear path of righteousness. This feels to me as a japanese version of Gossip Girl / Mean Girls.
So I do hope people start leaving this weird conservative perfectionist mentality and just enjoy stories as they are presented, not as they should be. Almost seems as if every story should be written in the exact same formula, with the exact same MC...

The reason why someone is able to write this and not be arrested is beyond me...
Constant rape as a plot device, torture, and a lot of incel discourse like "the nature of women is to be subservient to men" and things like that. Not only this is a recurring thing but from time to time the supposed villain presents "reasons" for why he does it. And yeah, these are presented as if it were common sense.
It's weird how I see a lot of people trying to defend this as "it's refreshing to read something through the perspective of a villain". What? This has been done
...
since old mythology. In this manga this is just an excuse to illustrate hateful speech all around.
