This story's romcom subplot doesn't even make sense.Spoiler
An Isekai protag regresses and immediately meets up with his past-harem ex-wives (of 10-15-ish years)... which seems to me like a pretty good start... and suddenly he's acting like a dense protagonist, misinterpreting signals all over the place. And then it does that s*upid "35 year old male in 20 year old's body... I will resist being attracted to a 20 year old woman because I'm oh so mature"... gimme a break. There isn't a 35 year old hetero male in a 20 year old's body out there that wouldn't melt over a 20 year old woman, especially if it was your much loved (past) spouse.
[collapse]This contains some of the most dumb AF forced storyline and over-played tropes I've come across, and the 90% of the time the comedy falls flat doesn't make up for the 10% of the time it works beautifully.I really wanted to like this story. I like a regressed, OP Isekai protag. I like the rationale around why he uses his hypnosis differently the second time around.I really, really wanted this story to work. And sometimes it almost succeeds.But, on balance, no. It's a fail.
