Definitely not the worst one-shot I have seen-- in fact, one of the better ones. If you like cliche romances and only have enough time or energy to read about 130 pages, this is the manga you've been looking for.
The story of this is pretty cliche though and there aren't any real twists in it, but there's enough of a plot that it creates minimal conflict. It was refreshing to find shoujo with some semblance of a plotline.
The art was nothing special. The art for the main male lead was interesting; I haven't seen many anime characters with that hairstyle or the 'slightly
...
older man' look portrayed as a romance lead. The heroine was drawn pretty typically.
The characters underwent a little bit of development, which was impressive since this is a one-shot. There's not much else to say about them because they were otherwise pretty cliche.
I enjoyed this a lot, despite a few nitpicks I have. To begin with, there were some parts that were very 'rape culture'; i.e. "I 'bought' you as a wife so I get to do whatever I want to you'" and etc. I understand that the culture is different and that he literally DID buy her, but that disregard and the slut-shaming made me a little bit sad that that was how women are treated sometimes.
Other than that, this was enjoyable enough that I finished it and smiled a few times. :)
I would recommend this if you: like Hapi Mari?!, like business man x poor girl tropes, like the womanizer x virgin tropes, like arranged/fake marriage tropes, like hot dudes with longer hair who are also lowkey sex gods
I would NOT recommend this if you: want a real engaging plot, don't like cliches, like clear consent in sex
Have a great day everyone!
