3.6/10
I’m at a stand-still on how to start this review because how degenerate of a manga this is. Now I’m not saying if you enjoy this you are a degenerate (since apparently that’s against TOS), but if I was 13 again with a raging boner then I would enjoy this. What does that say about my 13 year old self? Surely you could figure that out.
This manga heavily suffers from … well just being sht. For one thing, the manga has a “Rent-A-Girlfriend” blueprint. Where every chapter is predictable with the EXACT same sequence. For example, in chapters 1, 2, and 3:
>MC and FMC
...
talk
>make an incredibly unfunny sexual joke
>do a sexual pose
>Are incredibly embarrassed and horny/flushed afterwards.
It’s simply not an interesting execution, especially because of how unfunny it is. I wasn’t kidding when I said if I was 13 years old I would enjoy it. Each chapter just spams unfunny sex jokes, and I cringed too much to even read it all.
I’m not trying to nitpick the plot holes of this manga as well, but it’s sad. Why are the MCs so close to each other despite literally just meeting. The author was also too lazy to do any buildup, so he inserted a flashback and then a three month time skip. Finally, why can’t she just … watch porn? Sigh.
Also, the art is weird; it’s just close up pictures of each character and not much background layers at all. Apparently it uses AI (?) which would make sense.
Idk how to end this review, so uh bye.
You guys know this is just my opinion, right?

“I possessed”
Uhuh…
“The underdog who awakens to darkness”
Yeah…
“And gets beaten up by the protagonist”
Oh wow…
“But I’m confused because it’s too different from the original work”
...
Ehhh- really now … what a completely unique and creative concept. Someone hand this author an award right now. … okay, all jokes aside, you know why you clicked on this review. You’re just like me:
Interested. Curious. If this generic sounding trash is truly slop or if it falls under the category of “I’m not proud, but I do enjoy it.” And fortunately (or unfortunately because I have yet another one of these premises added to my bookmarks) this story is not that bad.
It’s one thing to make this kind of story setting with complete self-awareness and not recognizing how overdone and oversaturated the genre is, but this story kind of mixes both the satire and seriousness, which already puts this manga a bar above its peers.
The actual storyline isn’t that great because there’s quite a lot of cliches, there’s no denying that. But, the story does take the piss at some of the usual cliche developments or adds in self-awareness comedy moments with the side characters. Another good thing the manga does is how it paces and introduces every plot point.
However, I will nitpick it where I see fit, since there is one huge plot hole. The MC. Why in the hell is he so overpowered and why is his personality so different from an usual isekai character. It’s like he doesn’t belong as a true isekai character since his personality does not match up with his earth self. Almost like the author wanted to do the isekai gimmick but gave up half way through.
I’ll stop yapping because this isn’t a manga to take seriously. It’s one of those turn your brain off, ignore the plot holes, and enjoy the misunderstandings/comedy.
You guys know this is just my opinion, right?

When you think of isekai slop, this is absolutely what comes to mind. I’m so speechless that I even came out of manga review retirement just to call this what it is — a two pack of ass.
I can’t believe there’s a day where somehow, and someway an author could make the two premises of yanderes and power fantasy insufferable. The main character is self-depreciating, as expected for these kind of stories, but what makes it worse is that the author tries so hard making him a “good guy.” In other words, the classic “don’t kill the person that would kill us pleaseee” and
...
the “of course we will take on that suspicious quest from a person I totally trust and met five minutes ago!”
If that wasn’t a turn-off already, there are just way too many yanderes. Which, reading that sentence again, I simply at a loss of words for how that is possible. Some stories gradually introduce in yanderes one at a time or make each of them distinct, separate characters. In this story however … it’s like the author did a copy and paste of each character design and tweaked their hair color a little bit. None of them act unique at all as well, which is 10x worse.
And for the final nail in the coffin, I simply can not stand how edgy and garbage this is. It’s basically a thirteen year old’s power fantasy with how overpowered and protective the FMC’s are. I just don’t get how anything exciting can happen in the story if a FMC can just one shot final bosses because of plot design reasons.
Maybe if I was 12 years old I would enjoy this, but unfortunately not even my yandere addiction can cope with this work.

This manga had some potential with its premise, but that's all it is. Potential. To be blunt, the story isn't bad, but it isn't great. The biggest reason for this is the pacing. The pacing is incredibly fast, so that a lot of the developments feel half-hearted.
This, of course, includes the MC's development, the introduction and development between the villainess, and any antagonists. For example, solely in one chapter, the story was introduced, the main character was a fat lard, and then the author spammed some time skips to make him immediately lose weight and overpowered. Oh, and all of this happened within 3 months...
...
yeah.
With that being said, though, the main character isn't horrible. He's just a man who wants a loving wife, which is respectable, and he's also a bit of an aura farmer. Yes, this does mean that some of his actions are a bit edgy and cringy, but it isn't too bad.
As for the heroine, she isn't horrible, but she isn't great. Her character felt like a huge plot hole, but in the later chapters her personality is explained a bit more. It wasn't an amazing explanation of how she did an immediate 180 personality-wise and fell in love with the MC because of one action, but it was sufficient.
What felt amiss in the story is the plot development. The revenge or satisfying moment against the person who wronged the heroine felt completely rushed and glossed over. I get it, the story needs to quickly establish its premise and move on to the "academy arc," where most of the story presumably happens, but it wouldn't have hurt to take its time.
It's a decent manga where you turn off your brain and read about an overpowered protagonist and his wife, but that's all it is. The story was rushed a bit too much to make something meaningful, but it still isn't horrible. I bashed it a lot, but it's still entertaining.

Oh God... my eyes...
What happens when you combine a lot of "Toradora!" and "Oresuki," but without the likable MCs and funny developments? Well, you get whatever mess and cringe-fest of a story this is.
I'll start with probably the worst thing about this manga: The main character. He's one of those dense, low-self-esteem main characters who envy the "popular guy" in school. But there's only one problem... He is popular. Popular to a point where you can't help but cringe every time he goes off on one of those long monologues about how pitiful he is.
To make matters worse, he isn't even a likable
...
person. For example, when he thinks the popular girl (his crush? Idk, he admires her) is asking for love advice for his best friend, he... runs away. Seriously? What a horrible friend and person, in general. He's slightly self-aware of how selfish he is, but that doesn't make it much better.
As for the side characters/heroines... they're all incredibly one-dimensional, and you can practically predict how the plot is going to go with how poorly written they are. A lot of their personalities and attraction to the MC are forced, and it makes me squirm. thinking about how cringy it is.
I have no idea how this manga is rated so highly, since from my perspective, I read another trashy harem-esque romance manga with a dense and unlikable protagonist. The plot also heavily relies on the heroines never acting out their feelings and 100 misunderstandings that get rinsed and repeated until the author finally decides to man up and create some development. Sorry, but this is not for me.

Who needs an introduction to a premise or manga? Honestly. Introductions are so overrated. Let's just insert the MC into the story with an already established heroine and cut every step or development possible, so it's just the cute teasing moments. This will make for a perfectly good and sound story! ... I hate you, author.
Let me preface this: this manga has the potential to be something good, but the author messed up, and he messed up big time. If you couldn't tell by now, the author doesn't even bother developing the FMC at all, so we don't really know what or why the FMC
...
acts this way. All he explains is that she's stressed, and she relieves herself with the MC.
How did their relationship start? Who knows.
Why does the FMC have so much stress? Beats me.
Does the FMC even like the MC? Good question.
The FMC's personality is very cookie-cutter, and she doesn't have any backstory to help establish her out-of-the-ordinary personality. Because of this, her personality becomes incredibly forced, so all the cute teasing moments just come off cringy or awkward.
As for the MC, he's your every other embarrassing mess of an MC, where he does whatever the FMC does. His personality is in 1000 other romance mangas, so there's nothing important to note there.
This story could have been great, but it isn't refined at all. It's as if a web novel was adapted, and it didn't get reviewed or fixed to fill in the missing gaps or the anticlimactic moments of a good story.

Fluff... So much fluff...
This manga is the type of story where you're unconsciously smiling the entire time due to the lack of drama and the abundance of wholesome and cute moments between the main characters. And hey, I'm all for it because this is a childhood friend story that I can get behind -- A childhood friend story where the childhood friend is finally not doomed to lose.
This manga is very simple in design, where the author inserts some flashback memory moments and contrasts them with the present scenes. So far, almost every interaction between the main characters gets tied in with how they
...
reacted or remembered a certain past scene, and it makes for some incredible fluff.
As for the characters, they're not anything special, but they're still charming -- the MC reminds me of a teasing MC story, and the FMC is similar to every other kuudere heroine. However, they have been written into the story nicely, but I do still wish there was more FMC development to see why she changed so much. That alone could add a substantial amount of interest to the story, magnifying every interaction with the MC. Though I shouldn't be complaining too much, as this is a slow-burn, and it's only been two chapters.
Anyways, yeah, that's it. Cute, fluffy childhood friend story where the flashback moments are really sweet and wholesome. Uh, have I mentioned that this story is really fluffy yet? Oh, I have? Sorry, it's incredibly fluffy.

I wasn't engaged in this manga at all. It's due to numerous reasons: Generic trope/premise, cliches, fast developments, and lots of cringeworthy moments.
To start, the plot is not special at all -- there have been so many "ice princess" romcoms that it's incredibly hard for authors to differentiate themselves. As for this story, it's mediocre at best. I believe that if a mangaka is using an overdone concept, then the storyline itself or the writing has to be incredible to make something worthwhile. This? Unfortunately, it's full of wish-fulfillment cliches, and the pacing is a wreck.
Speaking about the pacing, it's going to be a
...
long, drawn-out story even though the characters already have feelings for each other. And the worst part about that is that it is not set in the premise at first. Numerous stories establish the "we both like each other" concept at the beginning, but they only work because it has been established in the beginning, so the teasing or whatever trope the authors use works. However, in this story, the MC saves her once, talks to her a few times, and then she's already in love with him... Yup, no slow developments or heart-warming moments to slowly thaw the ice princess, it's just straight into it. This, of course, makes for a rather anticlimactic storyline.
Also, a large gripe I have with this story is that the characters seem robotic. None of their developments feels natural and seems incredibly forced for the sake of having a "wholesome" moment or two. Some of the moments do make me smile, but most of them are awkward.
Countless ice princess stories are well-written despite their overdone premise; however, this is not one of those stories.

Welcome back to another episode of "Am I going to jail or not?" In other words, is this age-gap romcom manga good? Unfortunately, it is. And with that, there are three age-gap heroines... Sigh. Why must the majority of age-gap mangas be good...
Besides the three high schoolers, what separates this manga from the rest is the down-to-earth characters. The first heroine introduced is more typical of an "extreme" romcom story, while the second heroine adds lots of self-awareness to the storyline. This dynamic works well since the second heroine reacts like "why are you shooting yourself in the foot..." in every development with the first
...
heroine.
As for the MC, he's not a complete red flag (thank god), but he occasionally calls them pretty. Other than that, he's more made to be comedic than anything, so he has a pretty fun personality.
So, uh, yeah. That's it for this review. Please don't lock me up.

Another day, another erotica with a dumb premise. I don't know what to comment on, since this manga gives off gag vibes, but it's just a bad story.
The author attempted to add some worldbuilding and a backstory for the main character, but all of it was incredibly lackluster. Besides the "comedy" in the setting, it's incredibly forced, and the developments to get the MC to where he is just sucks.
The MC instantly becomes overpowered, and the seggs that would make him overpowered are just glossed over -- no, I don't want to read full-on fanservice, but if the author set up a scene, at least
...
do the aftermath or something (end of chapter 1). All of the developments are just skipped, then wham, the MC is now OP. As for the girl who made him OP? Who even knows where the author put her. She wasn't talked about at all.
This is a classic poor attempt at erotica that fails to create a funny gag story, and it also fails to create a serious, slow-paced story. I'll give some points for the author at least trying, but there are too many plot holes for this story to be entertaining.
