[Maybe there are spoilers]

The story tells about a girl who was summoned in another world where there were only men, because all women are in a deep sleep because of a spell cast by a witch. The summoned girl is treated as the "Goddess of Light" and the purpose of her summoning is for her to save the world from the witch's curse and save the women. I thought the objective of the story was really cool, however there are events that don't make any sense, which ends up making it more boring.
About the art of manga, I found it very beautiful, I have nothing ...

First of all, it is impossible for me to believe that this is a shounen manga and not shoujo or josei. Second of all, this is yet another manga that had so much potential but totally fell short. Let's get on to the review.

Story: 3/10 (poor)

Story? What story? There is no story. Well, to be fair, there is a basic skeleton of a story, but it's a hot mess. We start off with our protagonist, Eri, struggling with school and medical problems in her family, and when trying to save a mean girl, Meari, from a train, gets hit ... by the train and isekai'd into a place called Britannia that is populated solely by men because a witch has caused all the women to fall asleep. Hailed as the Goddess of Light, Eri and her knights plan to defeat the witch and wake up the women again. This sounds like an interesting premise, even though it's just your basic reverse-harem isekai premise and nothing original. It starts off promising, but suddenly the author added new characters and new events that went nowhere, were never explained, and wasted time, and the real problems were never resolved. The fact that nothing was ever explained bugged the heck out of me. How did Eri's family and friends react when she got hit by a train? Why did Meari hate Eri in the first place? Was it just a coincidence that Sir Richard looked so much like Eri's crush in her world, Hayami? Why did that IT company lady look like she was about to have sex with that sleazy, abusive knight guy whose name isn't even worth remembering? Who's the real Goddess of Light? DID THE WITCH EVER GET DEFEATED??? None of this is ever explained and the plot goes absolutely nowhere. Heck, there's not even a real ending!

Art: 10/10 (outstanding)

The one and only saving grace of this manga is the art. The artist, Kira Etou, typically draws josei romance stories with a "European nobility" sort of aesthetic, so this manga would definitely be right up their alley, and the art is STUNNING. It's so detailed, the expressions are done really well, the characters' hair flows so dynamically, and one of the only reasons I kept reading this manga (besides hoping against hope that the plot would improve) was so I could drool over the magnificent artwork. The style seems to follow the more recent trend in shoujo manga to lean more towards realism than in previous eras but still include the exaggeration and elegance that characterizes shoujo manga art. Yet again, I find it impossible to believe that this manga is targeted at boys, but that's a story for another time. Back to the art. I can't explain how beautiful it is. Aside from the detailed linework and attractive character designs (and I mean VERY attractive! The guys are absolutely simp-worthy and the girls are really pretty, too!), the artist is definitely a master of screentone, and uses a combination of basic screentones and effect screentones effectively. The art is the only thing that saves this manga from being a complete and utter waste of time.

Character: 5/10 (mediocre)

Just like everything else in this manga, the characters had potential. The main protagonist, Eri, seems responsible, brave, strong-willed, selfless, and hardworking, and I was looking forward to seeing her get developed more in-depth because I loved that she wasn't completely helpless even though she had a bunch of knights to protect her, but unfortunately, the trashy writing of this manga tore that chance away. It's not like she was shoved aside or anything, but she was never fleshed out much beyond her initial characterization, and that's what hurt all the other characters, too. They were flat and stagnant, with no depth or development to flesh them out and present them as real, multidimensional people. They just make decisions with no real motivations and rather than driving the story or affecting their world, the world and the story (well, as much story as one can say even exists in this manga) just push the characters along like toys. It seems like the characters are just there to look pretty and say stuff. One of the only redeeming points of the characters is that they all have recognizably different personalities, even though they're all basic reverse-harem isekai archetypes, but at least they're all different from each other and aren't just carbon copies of each other. Meari, who hates Eri for no real reason and eventually joins Eri's group after being saved by her and her knights, is one character who had potential to be an interesting character, but because we never see much of her backstory or why the heck she does the stuff she does, she's what comes to mind first when I think of "characters who were a waste of potential." Oh well. At least they're all really good-looking.

Enjoyment: 6/10 (fair)

As a lonely shoujo romance addict who would love to be surrounded by hot knights who worshipped me like a goddess, this manga was, if nothing else, a cheap form of fantasy-fulfillment, and was therefore enjoyable enough to get me to read it to the end. It could have been a lot better and I would love to see a better writer take up this story and turn it into something worth calling a good story, because it has lots of potential and the gorgeous artwork is wasted on the story as it is now. If you're bored and have absolutely nothing to do and you decide to pick up this manga, that's fine, and it'll at least keep you occupied for some time, and you might enjoy it, but it won't be the most exciting manga you've ever read, and unless you've never read any other manga, it definitely won't become your new favorite.

Overall: 5/10 (mediocre)

I'm being generous here. That's all I've got to say. I really don't want to hate this manga, and even though the plot was a mess and the characters were boring, I find it hard to say that the whole manga sucked. It had good moments, and it's impossible to hate anything with art as beautiful as this, and with more chapters, more character development, a better-structured plot, and actual explanations for stuff, it could've been so much more than it is.

World's End Harem: Britannia Lumiére is a scam. Waste of your time. To be precise, I don't say these things because I went into the series expecting fanservice, no. Looking at volume 1 front page, I immediately realized this is going to be a romantic story manga.

Allow me to quickly explain to you the failure of this series.

1st is the length of the series. 22 chapters, no need to explain further. You won't create a good story in such a short time, especially a good romance story. The chapters are quite short, usually around 15 pages on average per chapter.

2nd is the plot, our ...
