7.8/10
I’ve seen a similar cover art to this manga surfacing around a certain website, however, I never bothered reading it; despite that, I landed upon this series with absolutely no idea this was a doujinshi original. Solely to get the true character experience and immersion and definitely for no other ulterior motives at all, I decided to finally read “chapter 0.”
Compared to the “original,” this manga needs to have a plot, which this sort of does. I’m using the term sorta, since there doesn’t seem to be one overarching plot but rather subplots inside of a vaguely established main plot. Don’t get me wrong though,
...
the subplots are still entertaining and well-written, but there doesn’t seem to be much progression.
The main characters are rather basic, but they suffice as distinct personalities that add a comedy and a “fun” element to the story while also being being plot points of progression for the mc or themselves. Though they are quite likable and unique, there’s just a huge lack of backstory in each character, which leaves a massive hole in their depth and their moments of character progression. As for the side characters, they provide a small bit of comedic relief by having absurd qualities, and they don’t feel forced onto the plot.
This is certainly an interesting and fun harem manga to read by not taking the route of drama but rather comedy through its usage of characters while also maintaining a level of seriousness in its plot developments. However, it is apparent that the author isn’t too used to writing these type of stories by leaving some “missing pieces” in the characters or plot, but it is still enjoyable nonetheless.
