I started out with the manga which caught my attention and picked up the novel from its latest update.All in all it's a nice read. Chapters provide enough detail on the world and the novel doesn't take itself too seriously.The problem lies with the author's perception of the male character. The main point is that our MC, after reincarnated into another world still holds an unrealistic sense of loyalty towards some childhood friend. Which some readers may find romantic, but when the author tries to emulate human relationships realistically this 'red string' trope sticks out like a sore thumb.The author depicts her idealized version of a male persona, which would not be a problem if she stayed consistent with the MC's actions to his granted traits.While displaying an emotionally intelligent mindset, the MC does the 'Orimura Ichika' at the most improbable times.The author tries to instill some weird monogamistic virtue by presenting 'flags' and possible 'harem routes' just to wrap them up and cut em off by saying: the MC is loyal to a girl who supposedly is already dating someone else.All in all I would probably f*ck the author and then her best friend to make a point that this weird possessiveness is really reflected in her writing and maybe she should tone that down. Give some balls for her 'son'.
