THIS IS A MANGA ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS ANYTHING BEYOND THIS CHAPTER.
----------------------------------------
I bought this manga just because of its cover art.
I'm not disappointed at all. The art is super cute and really detailed.
Plot? It's a mixture of erotic comedy and cute romance. To be honest, I can't wait for next volume release.

If someone is wondering about Seven Seas translation quality - it's pretty good (as usual), they kept the localization to the bare minimum, they are using original name order and honorifics (with things like oneechan) in.

Dub = fake crap. Always.

I "read" the first two volumens now and it's a bunch of stupid smut. Goes through all the cliches and misinformation you'd expect from a person that never came in contact with a woman in his life. Sadly you see those tropes a lot in manga and anime, but as long as the main audience is as mindless as the writers it won't matter much. So you have your common ecchi/porn with bare minimum censorship (except for the "milk", which seems to be not pronographic for some reason?!) that just leaves the private parts out, but e.g. a hand that touches IT still has the shape of grabbing the nothing.
Quality as the OP said is there, even though it's pretty standard, I mean it's white lines on paper, what do you expect? It's not the 80s anymore where everything was a handfull of pixels...

The story is pretty simple as well: virgins, wankings and a "love" triangle. Plus, every woman has gigantic milkbags bigger than their heads for breasts, but no backpain and basically everything is an erogenous zone (someone PLEASE give japan mandatory sex ed, it's getting embarrassing).Nothing you haven't heard or seen if you watched or read ecchi before. Main guy is kinda the chosen one too, in case you wondered.
It's a lot of appeal to the common theme of neet not being a total waste of humanity; unless you think about it and then it all falls apart.

Dunno if I would buy another sequel, the ones I have were cheap for me and the premise looked promising, but now I need at least an 80% discount to get me buying into it again.
I don't know what's with this ecchi stuff lately, they were advertising some stuff with mostly underage girls having sexual relationships and I'm pretty sure this was outlawed some time ago in japan, because it's a real problem there, but I guess if the pictures ain't moving it's all fair and square.

6/10 (why is colour so expensive for manga?)

^ To paraphrase a certain meme a bit: "Everything you just stated there was wrong.", in more ways than one.

Not much point buying a series that made no pretense to NOT be Ecchi, only to then bemoan it - to Mary Whitehouse'ian levels - for being so, whilst also bemoaning Japan for being... well Japan... and that manga isn't all in colour (I mean seriously; that's like bemoaning a Bus for stopping all the time, or an airliner for not having opening windows).

Manga are outselling western graphic novels by a vast margin, so clearly all-colour pages aren't doing much for the latter.

Finished volume 4 a while ago, and certainly concur, having found no quality or typo issues with the physical volumes, which I have on occasion seen with other EL publishers. Surprised that there's only one volume's to go; perhaps the series will get a in-world sequel at some point.
