Story
Ginger finds a novel that describes the past and future events involving Ginger, her rival Lerazie and the cursed prince (curse forces him to listen to another person's thoughts whenever he makes eye contact with them). The novel presents Ginger as the villainess in the love story of prince and Lerazie. Trying to change her fate of villainess, she plans to make the prince fall in love with her and break his curse using the knowledge of future events.

Review
The most significant aspect of this series is that Ginger is dumb. Most of the comedy relies on FL being a dumb and transparent (shows her feelings ... on her face) character. The prince falls in love with her because she's dumb and doesn't put on a false mask. So, both the romance and comedy require the FL's stupidity to work.

If you don't like dumb female leads who keep forgetting important details or making the worst choices, then please don't touch this series. If you are okay with a dumb FL, this might be worth a read for her hilarious expressions.

The series is short (just 72 chapters). And it manages to tell a simple and complete story. I would not say that it is highly creative or unique. But it avoids the trap of extending the story with unnecessary misunderstandings and drama. Whenever FL starts to overthink, the author manages to quickly resolve any issues by simple communication between characters. The fast pacing helps, as we don't have to slog through the generic plot.

The art is good enough. Usually, fantasy romance manhwas are known for their extravagant art with dresses, architecture, interior design, decorations around panels etc.. This series keeps the art simple, but the character designs are pretty hot.


Overall, I think Ginger's charm sort of wears off after a while. For me, I had to power through the final chapters as the joke of Ginger being dumb became tired. I recommend reading a few chapters and judge if its worth continuing based on how much you like/hate Ginger.

Good:
1. Great Art. The main reason for the high rating.
2. Hot characters. FMC is really cute with her indifferent expression. MC.. is good enough (but the design reminds me of utsuro/shouyou sensei from Gintama).

Bad:
1. Horrible pacing: Even after 26 chapters, I have no idea where the story is going.
2. Passive FMC: Abusive childhood is not a valid excuse for a boring character (especially an Isekai-ed main character).
3. lack of strong secondary cast: Almost everyone other than MC/FMC feel like background characters.

Overall
I am not into the yandere MC thing. According to some other reviews, this seems to be a story ... where the characters grow out of their abusive childhood trauma. But the pacing is such a slog, that I can't justify reading this anymore.

Story
Girl (MC) gets Isekai-ed into a novel as a random orphan living in an abusive orphanage. The duke of the north (ML of the novel) is visiting the orphanages to adopt, but all children start crying immediately when he looks at them. Finally, he meets our girl who can look into his eyes without crying and decides to adopt her as his daughter. The rest of the story is a slice of life comedy between a father and daughter with some aristocratic politics here and there.

Review
Good:
1. The primary characters (MC and ML) are both decent. MC is a cute bundle of chaotic energy and fun ... to watch.
2. There's a lot of comedy throughout the series. The banter between MC and ML are full of hilarious dialogues.
3. The art is beautiful. In scenes where we see the mysterious power of beast fangs, the art has such a oppressive vibe, that you can feel the suffering of the characters.

Bad:
1. There's a shift in pacing after the first season (50 chapters). The chapters are short (around 1/3 of the usual length) and the plot moves at a very slow pace.
2. There are quality side characters (eg: stalker Biena or White leopard lady ) who rarely get any focus. They only appear in a few panels and fade into the background after that. MC + ML take up lots of screen-time (even after 100 chapters), which makes the world feel small and monotonous.

Overall
If you are looking for comedy and fuzzy warm vibes, this series is for you. While there's a background plot, the main focus is on father/daughter relationship. First three chapters are just setting up, and chapter 4 is where things start settling down. That should be a good point to decide if you like or hate this series.

A direct quote from the manga - "Common sense doesn't exist here, but happiness surely does"

I really hope that quote sets the right expectations for you. This is MC adventuring with MILFs and having lots of sex. Technically, There is a background plot of demon lord + hero. Its very generic with the "hero kicked me out" formula except for the MC marrying the mothers of hero party's members and forming an adventurer party with those MILFs. The payoff is probably seeing the downfall of hero's party, as they realize how much MC was carrying them with paperwork/chores/coordination and so on.

If you are in ... the mood for some Isekai trash and won't mind explicit sex scenes, this will be a good read. The story won't make much sense, so please turn off your brain.

I will keep this short.

Positives
1. a decent comedy
2. Its a complete story with consistent pacing.

Negatives
1. Absolutely the dumbest and most irritating FMC ever. Almost made me drop the series multiple times.
2. A lot of plot feels contrived as it relies on FMC being dumb and making a tiny issue into a huge complicated melodramatic mess. 90% of the problems are a result of FMC not killing the villainess despite having multiple opportunities (and reasons) to do so.
3. Side characters are boring and shallow. They have their hilarious moments here and there, but are still very forgettable.
...
Overall
Its a very forgettable series. Its not bad, but if you are going to read this, please keep your expectations low.

Plot
So, our MC is an middle-aged salaryman who fires incompetent people from their jobs. One of the people he fires, goes crazy and murders our MC by pushing him in front of an oncoming train. God is disappointed at MC's lack of empathy and faith. And MC doesn't recognize this almighty entity as God, because the world won't be in such a mess if God actually exists. MC believes that when basic needs are met, God is useless. So, God sends MC to Isekai during the time of war as the hardships might incentivize MC to change his beliefs.

Review
This anime is sort of a ... mess. MC is reincarnated as an orphan girl and around the age of 12, she is already trying to get into military to live a peaceful life as an officer. Of course, God won't let that happen and always puts MC in life-risking situations on frontlines. This makes MC hate God a lot, even wanting to kill him. God, OTOH, grants MC some OP power which can be used only when MC praises God.

The motivations are all over the place. Why is MC trying so hard to go against fucking God? And how do you even do that? If god can stop time, reincarnate people, grant power etc.. what exactly does MC think he can do? More importantly, why is God such a dick? So desperate for validation from a random salaryman? God literally causing a whole world war because he hates MC?

The series pretends to be deep by commenting on war, god and humanity. But all I see is teenager level understanding of the world. Except for MC, every character seems to be indistinguishable from each other. Seriously, in a lot of situations, you can replace one character with another and nothing really changes. Hell, you can replace existing characters with new characters and you won't even notice.

Honestly, I don't even have the energy to watch the sequel movie. I would rather watch another trash Isekai power fantasy, than a series like this.

Warning: Lots of pedo vibes in this one.

Plot
MC is a new homeroom teacher for a class of 10 year old kids. His student Chise tells him that she is from future. Apparently, in a few yeras, MC will impregnate one of the students and marries her. But Chise (secretly) always loved him and was shocked to know about this marriage. Like any crazy stalker, she traveled back in time to seduce and marry him before he impregnates any of the classmates. This starts the story of an ecchi comedy between MC and his girl students.

Well.. yeah, the plot is very disturbing. We are talking about ... 10 year old girl *students* and a 22+ teacher. Within the first 4 chapters:
1. MC looks at naked loli students
2. He touches their bare breasts
3. Accidentally kisses Chise's vagina
4. Chise does a naked apron cosplay
5. the other kids try to seduce him by flashing panties.

Do i need to even explain the problem here? This could have been a decent adult comedy manga between a young male professor and his female students in a college. But for some reason, we need to have a middle school setting.

The comedy is mostly just the lolicon gags and classic ecchi "accidents".

The only reason i am giving a 4 rating is that i still like the concept and the art. If only the setting was college adults instead of middle school children, this would have been a decent manga. The author is probably on a FBI list somewhere.

This manga is an Isekai parody that is also a borderline hentai and an ecchi comedy at the same time.

The manga has:
1. sex scenes with quality art: You get around 1 decent scene per volume, but the art quality is high with very little censorship.
2. comedy: Lots of jokes about sex and MC being horny.
3. generic Isekai plot: The plot is predictable, but fortunately, it moves at a rapid pace using timeskips. This keeps things from getting too stale.
4. wholesome: lots of wholesome moments with family, villagers, friends and even teachers. The characters are all memorable like a slice of life.

Despite being a ... horny Isekai, it manages to avoid uncomfortable tropes like slavery (Harem in the Labyrinth of another World) or Mind-break/NTR/Rape (redo of the healer/IsekaiNTR etc..).

It is obviously not for everyone. But if you belong to the target audience, then you have come to the right place. The first two chapters are very good at setting the right expectations for the comedy, sex and wholesome moments. Just read them and see if you like this manga.

A very generic shounen with a great start. But will eventually become too chaotic and shallow towards the final arcs. I will just skip explaining the story or characters or whatever, and just focus on the rough overview of quality.

When the story started, it was amazing. The pacing was just right and some of the characters were great. It was still cliche, but it was quality cliche. For 300 chapters, it was peak shounen and clearly had the potential to be a masterpiece. But the manga started to slowly drop in quality, and the problems are quite obvious in hindsight.

First, The top villain had too ... many asspulls and kept saying "All according to my grand plan". OTOH, he also acts like a clown by giving monologues during fights, instead of finishing his objectives.

Second, the plot armor also removes stakes, as author never lets any of the main characters die or suffer long-term damage. Huge chaotic battles with explosions everywhere, but nobody important ever dies. Characters also get nerfed/boosted based on the requirements of the plot.

Finally, the overall message is weird. In a setting, where people's worth is decided by the quirk (power) they are born with, we have an MC without any quirk. The manga raises many such questions about all the "undesirables" of the quirk-based society. But, it fails to provide a proper answer for most of these questions. For our quirk-less MC, the solution is simply to receive All Might's OP quirk.

Anyway, the story is still decent for the first 300 chapters. Its still worth reading. But just keep your expectations in check and prepare yourself for a weak climax.

Plus
* art is decent
* story/lore is simple and straightforward. (cliche?)
* easy to read. you can stop anywhere because the cliffhangers are weak and the arcs are generally tiny.
* rapid pace and decent execution. hype all the way!

Minus
* power levels (and kinds) are all over the place with barely any structure.
* The characters (especially villains) are too generic. I could predict their dialogues/expressions in my sleep.
* And some characters are *really* inconsistent. Its like the authors forgot their character traits?
... * MC is plain and boring and empty. I genuinely have no idea why his family even loves him.
* 80% of the series is either training or dueling. and it gets tiring after a while, especially when the mystery is kinda weak.

Overall
Just another power fantasy template with pretty art. It executes its generic ideas properly, but it also brings nothing new to the table. The usual busted MC with everyone around him going "wow.. I can't believe he grew so much stronger overnight. He must have worked real hard. so young and talented and handsome and humble etc..".

If you are not a fan of this genre, then skip this.
