I really don't understand the high rating reviews I'm seeing, this novel is at best amateurish.There will be spoilers in this review, it is needed to prove my earlier statement, but even if I say this it's a generic harem novel where spoilers mean nothing since it's as predictable as can be.The MC is a former hero, he was summoned to a different world to defeat the demon king, after that was done he was apparently forcefully de-summoned back to Japan, which seems very likely when you look at the fact that he doesn't seem that much stronger than everyone else, even struggling against enemies known as demon kin or something, whom are neither a demon king nor a general of the demon king army which are often seen in this kind of novel.After being sent back to Japan the MC creates a magic circle himself in order to go back to the fantasy world for the purpose of creating a harem in a different world, that's all fine, but I find it highly unlikely that he would be able to create a magic circle like this since his knowledge of the subject is instantly forgotten and his knowledge of magic in general seems extremely limited and lacking.When it comes to the harem members, we have no s*aves so far, the reason given is that all of them had "dead eyes", this of course is a stable in this kind of novel, but normally you would see them being bought and healed by the MC, that this doesn't happen doesn't make this a "groundbreaking" novel or some other bullshit, it just seems to be out of reach of the authors writing skills. Understanding of romantic feelings and romance in general shown by the author is basically at elementary school level despite there being plenty of s*x in the novel. The understanding of feelings in general is actually severely lacking, leaving me extremely worried about the author suffering from some undiagnosed mental illness, this also results in all the characters being one dimensional.There is the girl described as being energetic with nothing else to her, a loli that's said to be talking like an old woman, the cat eared maid and the manipulative princess, other than the princess, so far I wouldn't be surprised if even the author forgot about his own characters, they are said to have certain traits, but it's limited to just enough information to differentiate them with absolutely no personality at all. Even the MC didn't have any personality before meeting the princess, but him gaining one doesn't really turn out for the better, showing him as a spineless beta whose IQ is lower than my rating of this novel, while all his 2 braincells do is making him act like a virg*n despite having lost it.The author seems to have put a lot of thought in the premise, which I like, and the overall plot which doesn't seem bad so far, we only saw a short glimse of it possibly being the same world as he was originally summoned to despite the MC thinking it isn't, might be far in the future or the like. Everything else in between is awful though, no other word to describe it, just feels like a fan of the genre thinking "I like webnovels, writing one can't be that hard, I have a good idea for the story after all", but honestly it feels like a person liking a certain brand of smartphones, suddenly tweaking the original design and by doing that they think they can make a smartphone, without any knowledge of the parts or how they work and without putting any work into figuring that out before creating something that doesn't work and then expecting me to pay for it.
