This series starts off alright but suffers greatly by giving a majority of characters that show up, no matter how minor, a first person POV scene change. A single conversation between "Alpha" 1 through 6 has four or more scene changes to different characters' perspective. Perhaps the intention is to imitate a manga thought bubble, but it only adds bloat and an unnecessarily confusing back-and-forth.The quick harem grab and nondescript assault of two high school girls for no real reason also does nothing for the story. It's also not even an issue with the MC doing it. There's a valid literary purpose for traumatic events on characters and could be used to establish MC as properly evil, but that's not why it's done here. As the situation continued, it's clear it's just the author's wish fulfillment scenario or attempt to cater to a specific audience.I read the translator's review of it and gave it a try, but a "ruthless, heartless, villain" isn't what I found. It really is more like an evil child.
