Synopsis

Considered a genius, high school student Fuutarou Uesugi excels at studying and obtains a perfect score on every test. Due to his intense focus in that regard, he is a reclusive person with no friends. Additionally, he lives in a tight financial state as a result of family debts.

Fuutarou's mundane lifestyle is interrupted when Itsuki Nakano, a new transfer student, contests him for his usual lunch seat. After a short altercation, Fuutarou emerges victorious by insulting Itsuki's eating habits, which angers her enough to leave. However, when Fuutarou learns that he has been offered the private tutor position of a wealthy family's academically hopeless daughters, he immediately regrets his prior encounter. It turns out that the beneficiaries of his tutoring are none other than Itsuki and her four identical siblings: the shy Miku, the cheerful Yotsuba, the devious Nino, and the mature Ichika!

Teaching these quintuplets may prove more difficult for Fuutarou than he initially expected, as the last thing they want to do is seriously study. Now, Fuutarou must face the various challenges of tutoring five beautiful yet eccentric girls.

Waifus.

We all know them, we all love them. If youre specifically looking for a harem manga chances are youre looking for them, and if you dont pay attention you might be just satisfied after your read. Which is good but I find it rather unfortunate

While this manga does provide beautiful and unique waifus who actually have their own personalities and act somewhat more realistic compared to other harem mangas (like the ones the unpopular guy does a single act of kindness to the extremely popular and good-looking heroine and she falls in love with him. Do you know how many favors attractive women get in ...

Mixed Feelings
TL:DR
Great writing and charming characters but it can't quite live up to the premise of five equal love interests and suffers from a very rushed ending. Mixed Recommendation

Story: 6/10
Well paced for the first ~80%. There's a long section at the start where there's little to no romcom shenanigans and I wish more manga slowed down at the start to give us a chance to get to know the characters outside of a romantic context.

The author gave themselves herculean task trying to develop six distinct main characters (the sisters + Uesugi) and, for the most part, they manage to pull it off. They manage to portion ...

Any of the other four girls—Nino, Ichika (my favorite), Miku, or even Yotsuba—would have been a far better choice. Or better yet, the author could have given each girl a separate ending, allowing fans to enjoy their preferred outcome. And if they really wanted to please everyone, a proper harem ending would have been the most fitting.

But no. Instead, they went with the least interesting girl and, as if that wasn’t bad enough, threw in a last-minute, forced backstory just to "subvert expectations." It wasn’t clever—it was lazy, rushed, and completely unearned. The buildup throughout the series was tossed aside in favor of an ending ...
