Too early to rate properly, but I have very high hope for Sasuga Kei's latest romcom.

It appears like she is trying to keep the spice and drama from Domestic Girlfriend, but avoid the problematic tags like incest. Everyone is of age and no one has family relations.

Harem is always hard to make good, but from the first 30 chapters all the character has depth, developement and issues. The girls are lovely and the male lead, although a little bland so far, seem competent enough.

I cannot wait for this to get finished in X years, so I can binge it and give it a ... final rating :)

Sasuga Kei mangas are my guilty pleasure. I've read pretty much everything she has published even though all of it kinda sucks. This is not the exception. Characters are always shallow, plot twists make no sense, the story seems to be constantly rambling for no reason... but still, it always feels so digestible and easy to read that I keep coming back for more.

I know it's bad. I know I shouldn't like it. It even pisses me off sometimes (the way Sasuga Kei keeps bringing up serious/disturbing topics such as child abuse, drug overdose, suicide, domestic abuse... just for 1,2 or maybe half a ... chapter to then conclude that everything is fine and go back to silly romance). But I still enjoy it somehow. It may be shit, but it is my shit. And it is fine to enjoy and like shit. We should accept that things are not good just because we like them. No one can seriously say Issho ni Kurashite Ii desu ka? is a good manga, but you can definetely enjoy it.

Long story short: give it a shot if you have read Good Ending and/or Domestic na Kanojo and you liked them. Stay away if you didn't. It's more of the same. Not better, not worse, it is just more of the same.

It's good to see that the author's writing is still ass.

Coming from Domestic Girlfriend, it is definitely a significant downgrade. It's another story about several girls who have basic character tropes about them falling in love with a basic self-insert main character that has no depth to him, other than knowing what to say at the right times like a robot. Otherwise, he's bland as hell. There's more depth in the erotic scenes than the actual story itself.

I'm shocked that the author is female, because I am still fully convinced that only a sweaty incel would conjure this storm within the confines of his ... mother's basement.
