Love from the Male Protagonist’s Harem Chapter 204 Discussion

I tried mtl-ing it but it melted my brain so I don't know the ending (thus the 4 star rating), but I'm very happy to see this being actively updated so I can reread.

That being said you'd have to be the biggest masochist (which I am) to want to reread this again because it's so painfully beautiful.

I both hate and love harems like this because each character is so well written and comes alive in the text. This serves to humanize them and that means they don't just line up and say "We can share" to the MC.

The harem members fight each other for the protagonist's love, but you know in the end she can only choose one. But it hurts deeply when the protagonist really does choose one and hurt all the other characters. You know the girls, you know their painful stories, and you want the best for them. You wish they could all just be together and live happily ever after like most harem novels but that's not realistic and people are selfish in nature.

I also love the relationship between the MC and the male protag since it's not like those ones where "male protag is sh*t and doesn't deserve love". The male protag is given a REAL good personality that vibes well with the MC. It's a real deep friendship

and it hurts seeing them fight, even after all they've been through because that's how the 'story' needs to go.

Lastly, the MC's life just hurts. Someone said the synopsis was misleading and boi were they right. I thought this would be like The Harem Rescue Project so I felt good coming in, but it got way, waaay darker.

I'm thankful to translator for picking this up and sharing to everyone this beautiful mess of emotions. I hope I can read this fully and hurt myself again.
