6.7/10
It's been a solid two chapters, and I roughly know what to expect from this manga -- it could be a bit unfair to review it "prematurely." Still, this manga didn't strike me as anything different from the rest of the harem romcom trash we all know and love/hate.
My main gripe with this manga is the usage of the "indifferent" mc to females -- yes, this concept works and has worked for other stories, but it seems forced in its execution in this manga; in other words, the mc isn't explained well at all, even with his own "tragic" story coming into play.
I'm also a
...
man whose weakness is harems and multiple love interests, but there's almost no reason for a harem, as the other options are routes that are doomed from the start -- I don't know, to me the main intrigue and drawl for harems is the "mystery" aspect on who will win or not, but if the mc is indifferent and has set his goal on one female, then what the f*ck is the point besides for making the mc "cool."
The side characters are alright, but their characters are about what you'd expect from a manga that's a bit directionless on its heroines. The potential for the personality is there, but they are too forced without a solid explanation.
The world-building kinda sucks, and the plot is semi-predictable. The story is also one-step or author-fantasy away from being an erotica.
My review might be premature, but this manga didn't strike me as "worth it" to read over the other generic mangas. It uses certain tropes you'd see across different stories, but it doesn't explain or use them well enough to make a strong impression. Otherwise, though, expect a decently average story with the expected wholesome, jealous, etc, moments with a lot of suggestive scenes.
