Shimotsuki-san Likes the Mob (WN) Chapter 110 Discussion

Let me summarise the novel in a sentence

Author with NTR fetish played it safe by trying to make a rom com novel with a cast full of unlikable characters but his fetish springs up from tine to time.

Oh but that's just the forgettable cast that gets NTR'ed so if you are bothered about the FMC getting NTR'ed she probably won't be since it's not that type of depresso expresso novel. Read further below for more details

I'm sorry but the MC is just too pathetic and intolerable for me to like. He constantly goes "I'm a mob char so I can't do this, I'm a mob char so I can't do that." It was kinda ok in the beginning but then it starts to slowly piss you off with how much he says it.

Even the fMC acts all cute and bubbly with the MC but when the time comes to show herself as the fMC she's disappointing.

So basically this harem guy who ntrs the MC by taking his step sister, childhood friend and bestie desperately wants the fMC to join in. The fMC seems to despise him from the depth of her heart but instead of telling the tr*sh to go away or leave her alone, she just says some half assed words. Instead of ending it once and for all, when that scum asks her about something, she simply answers him but in a dissatisfied manner.

She then proceeds to act all mushy with the MC in front of that scum making the MC a target.

The MC instead of standing up for himself, let's the scum walk all over him.

She clearly knew her actions would result in such consequences for the MC, yet she still does it all the time and when the scum gets jealous, she gives him half assed response rather than telling him to leave them alone. Technically that's the only bad point she has but that point sticks out like a sore thumb and makes her adorable actions all the more irritating.

The harem scum protag ntrs our MC and acts all arrogantly with too much screen/script time. And it's not even important. It's about how the female friends that were once close to the MC are now all over the harem scum.

I swear the author is a hard core ntr lover and wanted to make a LN out of it but tried to play it safe. Even I read ntr doujins but when I see such ntr sh*t happening outside doujins with the MC always describing the sluts' actions and how much it hurts, it makes you wonder, why tf do I have to read those lines again and again. And his exuse when something bad happens to him?

"Because I'm a mob"

The MC's past close female friends are just a bunch of sluts. After finding the harem scum, they simply throw him away and ignore him when the story begins. I swear if they make these sluts like the MC in the future and act all cute I'll strangle the author in my mind.

The MC too, even though he gets treated like absolute garbage by those sluts, still act kind as if he's the second coming of Jesus. The sluts' lines (technically just the MC's step sis for now since others have not interacted live in the story) spouts out lines that came straight from ntr doujins like "after what I've done, I don't deserve your kindness" and stuff

However I'll continue reading it since there must be a reason why such a garbage web novel got a light novel adaptation. Maybe it will improve later on. Maybe similar to some other nivels, the LN might correct some mistakes the web novel made

However don't let my review put you off and skip this one. Give it a try and maybe stick around for a few chapters. If your thoughts align with mine then maybe read a few more chapters and if it still does not convince you, I suggest you to drop it.

I wrote this review from my pov, from a guy who felt more and more irritated as the plot moved forward so maybe my review was a little too harsh but if you ppl too felt the same way, like I said abv, I suggest u to drop it. I'll try reading some more and maybe edit my review if the story gets better. If I still have not after two - three days, just assume the web novel was so shit, I simply closed the tab and never bothered thrashing this novel further

The raws are available in syosetsu and have about 300+ chaps but each one is extremely short

Read 100 chaps and honestly, it got boring real fast for me but maybe others might (?) enjoy it
