Don't usually write reviews, but all I can say about this story is that its quiet interesting. Is Egostick obsess with Stardust?. Yes. 100% but not in a romantic way, but he's her idol way. Think about it. He was thrown to this world suddenly, knowing the crazy villains and the world-ending scenarios that will come and he do can something about it. He's part crazy. If anything it's rather hand waved how semi-insane he is for allowing himself to suffer through all of this so Stardust can have an actually pretty smooth time until the main story ends.. But he have the power. He have the means to make it easy for his idol.. So he does it.. Egostick came in this world where he had nothing and because he had nothing that he sees worshipping Stardust as something he can do and from how he describes her story and her world. It's a horrible world that is plagued with Villains and the world is in flames. Hence why some of his acts are thought of as heroic.The best thing about this series is the slow burn of obsession. Obsession that Shin Haru (Stardust) is going through. She's not dumb. She's actually insightful and has actual institution. Her super senses almost discovers Egostick's identity a few times throughout the story and she's rational enough that the most satisfying thing about this series is her going through mental gymnastics about Egostick. You can understand where her obsession is coming from too. Because when she's in trouble and is about to give. Egostick is always there to lift her out. And even though she's disturbed by the killings that involves dangerous villain. She understands it because of how dangerous said villains were to the city she's protecting. Egostrick's presence is basically what makes things rather comedic and without his continuous presence, things are f*cking bleak. It also doesn't help that Egostick's intentions are seen as romantic when in truth he just wants Shin Haru to be strong enough to breeze through difficult villains and then retire.It's a fun story and so far its been pretty good
