Note: This review is only for the first 5 volumes. Its been quite good as a shounen novel, up to v5. I couldnt read further than a few chapters of v6 because there isnt any actual decent translation for v6 yet, but I hear it kinda went downhill and has become a mess atm. I hear someone points about how s*upid the isekai world is - or at least the country the MC was born in, and well... hes right. Its matriarchy, but everywhere I see males being in charge - the king, the nobles. And somehow adventurers still get to have a lot of rights. These points are justified because "its an otome game, so it cant be helped. Dont think too much about it." And I guess I can look past that.Onto the characters. The MC is said to be pretty cunning, but I think the only time he actually demonstrated it is in the first half of vol 5. He is OP after obtaining a cheat item, and is thus balanced by being lazy, indecisive, and a real PoS (in a good way). There is some level of self-awareness, as he just only uses his powers to troll the life out of people he hates. However he is also too dense, which annoys me. He likes his harem but nowhere near enough to marry any of them, yet also refuses to tell them and just runs away. The waifus (3 so far), I guess they are pretty decent, but the romance is just illogical, dumb even. Though the part I hate the most is the 5 idiots that he is stuck with. Literally only there for comic relief or plot advancement and I certainly wouldnt miss them if they are gone.So I guess this is a rom com but without much actual rom. There are hints of yuri though (͡° ͜ʖ ͡°).
