Is pretty fun, the main character is funny in his own way, I also like that there seems to be an intent to keep him weak, at least as far as I've seen. The characters are cute and unique, although I wish the flow of development with them was a bit better. The timing is also pretty odd. As of now only 2 months have technically passed in the novel, but it definitely feels like more time has passed. The events seem to be laid out in the narrative as happening one after another without a single break, but it doesn't read like thatHonestly the only thing I do dislike is how he doesn't get angry, not just with his brother but in general. These people do literally anything to him and he's at best annoyed by it. It gets frustrating to read when he says "I'm not angry" for the upteenth time and you're sitting there in a pissed off haze going "why not?!" because every right to be I honestly don't know if id call the novel queerbait, theres some scenes which have definite undertones, but there isnt a romance subplot with basically any of the characters to the MC. And those kind of stories arent that bad eitherNow I'm not sure what happened, but likely the og translators got some form of cease and desist and they took down the original translation.Unfortunately the people who took it up are... Asian Hobbyist who are well know for their bad quality and being specifically in it to make money, I hate being a person who complains about something freely provided, but the people who translate this have a patreon, they are getting money for this and honestly the quality given pisses me off. It seems clear to me that it's a basic direct translation with minimal editing. The readability is just bad, and it's not clear what is even happening.It's a pity because it was pretty fun before this. If you can put up with it, do your best. Otherwise maybe petition a translation group to pick it up from where the first group left off
