Its a fun and dumb harem trash.

Plot
MC was "bullied" by three other kids by forcing weird punishments on him upon losing games. He goes to tokyo and returns as a high schooler after 5 years. He has prepared in every possible way to defeat those bullies from his childhood. But turns out, that they are actually girls, and yet, in the true spirit of gender equality, MC will still try to defeat them in games and complete his revenge by punishing them. Meanwhile, the girls who have always been in love with him and "bullied" him for attention, are now planning to finally make ... him fall in love with them.

Review
I should start off the review by saying that this is really really dumb harem series. From the very first chapter, you know exactly what you are getting into. There's no "story" here. Its just harem ecchi comedy gimmicks at full force.

The series more or less follows the same template/formula.
1. MC challenges the girl/girls to a game (with maybe multiple rounds)
2. Either the MC or the girls lose a round.
3. There's an ecchi penalty for the loser. The ecchi will be limited, so don't expect much.
4. play more rounds with more penalties, until the chapter/arc ends.
5. Go to step 1

We just keep repeating this loop, and rotate the focus between different girls. All the girls are great and worth shipping.
1. Big booby rich girl: She's lewd and openly declares that she will go to any extent to win against the other girls.
2. Wrestler innocent: She's really athletic and an extrovert. But she's innocent when it comes to ecchi.
3. gamer streamer horny: She's an introvert living alone, but she's the horniest of them all. masturbates while thinking about MC.
4. ???: The hidden route and I will avoid spoilers.

Finally, the main attraction of this series is our MC. He's not some lonely loser getting noticed by a popular girl. He is actually talented in studies, sports and everything you can imagine. works hard and respects other people's effort. OTOH, he also simps for a v-tuber. But, overall, I think this is a guy who actually deserves the girls.

I think the series does a good enough job rotating the focus among all harem members. There is some shallow "drama" at times, but the series maintains its fun wholesome harem ecchi vibes throughout the story. If you belong to the target audience of this series, then I would definitely recommend giving this a chance.

One of the yet another reads from my "picking random mangas and giving it a read" journey and never did I ever, ever, ever thought I would read a manga with this much broken humor in my entire life.

So the story unravels as we are seen that the MC is bullied by some "boys" as a result of losing challenges from them while a "girl" tries to save her from the bullies. But he moves to Tokyo after some time. After returning to Tokyo and wanting to extract revenge from the "boys" who bullied him by challenging them, he was shocked to find that the ... so called "boys" were actually girls (definitely did not see that one coming) and the one who he thought of a girl all this time and liked turned out to be a boy (or is he?). And it is revealed that the girls secretly liked the MC all the time and enjoyed his desperate expressions. But MC drowned in his desire to exact revenge does not perceive any of the hints and is dense as a black hole.

It is your friendly neighborhood Harem manga but the fact it differentiates itself from other run-of-the-mill mangas in the genre is not its quality of girls nor the quantity, but its humor. The humor is so fucked up that sometimes I think the author is a sick mf. But as a sick mf myself like the author I actually enjoyed that humor. Plot is that of a revenge harem manga route but revenge is not all that serious like the bullying which was never hardcore or serious. The revenge just comprise of beating the girls in some games in which they are considered prodigy. Characters are the Big-boobed Basketball prodigy girl, Delinquent type martial arts prodigy girl and Calm and Composed Gamer girl. Thinking that there are only three girls? No sir, there 4 more girls ready to fall for MCs charms anytime soon. And MC being so dense to understand the advances and so focused on the revenge aspect that he can be easily mistaken as a Chad if not for the simping on a V-tuber.

Art is decent. And don't get me started on characters. Other than the 3 main girls, all are somewhat normal. But those 3 are so f-ed up that they cover up the degeneracy for all the other characters. I mean when they were small the basketball girl literally used to punish him by striping him off his clothes for loosing the game as a way to see his naked body, the martial artist used the bouts as an excuse to touch MCs genitalia, and the gamer girl (well she was pretty pure when she was small but when she got big she literally fapped every day using MCs photo and even did it on a live gaming stream unknowingly). All that while playing it off as a gag.

So for people who can't take some extra dark humor should stay away from this as it could be pretty unsettling for them. It could be considered a toned down Mushoku Tensei version of Harems.

6.1/10


I had previously reviewed this manga and gave it some praises for the fun harem trash it is, but after 34 chapters, I just can't stand it anymore. As seemingly all harem stories go, it's all drama and the same rinse-and-reoeat chapters/plot developments continuously, with even more stupid resolutions or humor, which this manga does to a T.

Sure, maybe for 10-15 chapters this manga can pass off as an entertaining story, but once the chapters keep piling with nothing but nonsense and stg\agnant progression, the story loses its charm and become more of a hassle to read than anything.

I thought the dumb protagonist could be ... a rather fun approach to the listing girls, but it simply isn't — well, it was.. until the author decided to make him act dumber and dumber towards his surroundings and every situation.

I wouldn't bother with this unless you are a huge sucker for irritating stories with no development. In other words, you’re here for a brain-numbing experience distracted by unusually large breasts of each female lead.
