The art is good, the concept is good, the execution is garbage and it updates so rarely that you need to reread it to remember what is where and why
The art is great, the character design is great, the characters are interesting. But interesting doesn't mean good.
But this author would rather have the MC (main character) change personality instead of tell a consistent story, all for the sake of the gimmick of [the MC isn't allowed to know he has a harem]. That only worked the first time.
With the prostitute character, the setup for the gimmick was so contrived it didn't make sense for several reasons:
So why were they running away from someone who actually can't ever hurt them again? The gimmick!
The writer clearly doesn't know how to write, as is further evidenced later in the story when the MC meets a king who
The author forgets important details of the previous stuff they wrote for some reason.
This author is also a moral hypocrite, as they have no qualms about making the MC feel horrible for stuff he didn't do but must make sure all the women get happy endings despite some intentionally making bad choices that normally lead to heartbreak for them.
The prostitute thing was handled so poorly even aside from the core issues MasterSang brought up below (which I 100% agree with).
I'll add my argument on why it was bad story planning. (Honestly, this manga, outside of its world building and art, is a mess. An interesting mess, to be sure, but a mess nonetheless.)
This manga starts out with the MC losing his childhood love to the hero.
I honestly hope so, because the manga only showed that the hero pulled her into an impromptu kiss, with no indication of whether she wanted it or not, and if this whole story started because the MC couldn't even talk to her but she actually was faithful to him...
Say it with me: the gimmick!
Which makes me think that's what happened. And if that's the case and she didn't go after the MC or put up wanted posters or something, and in the end gets back with the MC... well, it will be proof the writer never knew what he was doing in the first place. That said, there's enough proof of that without these hypotheticals.
Getting back to the prostitute arc issue and why, beyond its moral failings, it still fails:
So the MC at this point has had his heart torn asunder twice, and meets the prostitute character. What would make sense here?
A) Giving up on love and using her as a prostitute to dull the pain.
B) Not giving up on love and using her as a prostitute to dull the pain.
C) Not going to a brothel because women are the last thing you want to get intimate with right now due to heartbreak.
You know what actually happens? The MC falls in love with her after talking with her, and she becomes a harem member despite her red flag choices leading up to her situation. She is a woman who chose to be a whore.
She could have...
But no, she chose to be a prostitute, she had sex with the guy she supposedly hates, she calls what she did dirty, and the author ignores the MC's circumstances and heartbreak and makes him wax romantic about how all that doesn't matter or make her dirty.
That is the worst possible, most out-of-character thing the MC could have done. The author refuses to be consistent and let her past have consequences on her, and this refusal to be consistent is both a moral failure and, say it with me: for the gimmick!
Because, as mentioned above, the prostitute girl is nonsensically
Well, consistency would screw up the gimmick, so instead the author gives him a screwed up pep-talk convinces him to stop looking for love altogether.
TL;DR:
The initiating event not withstanding, the gimmick works once and is dumb after the first time. Any intelligent and sane person would recognize this and pivot. This author doesn't; they double down at the cost of breaking suspension of disbelief.
Why are so many authors like this nowadays?
But, to be honest, there is still something there to read and be entertained by on occasion.

Looks like this will be a OP dense protagonist who will have a harem of girls chasing after as he journeys through the world. Decent artwork. Some funny, warm and fuzzy moments, especially from MC;s adorkable scenes. Previous comments about the prostitute, while do repeat itself and tend to drag on (skipped a lot of frames from this), do not diminish a decent premise and an overarching plot-line that could get serious. 8/10.
I agree with user Helbrassen's review.
The start is pretty good compared to other mangas of this kind. It revels in its tropes and never takes itself seriously, which leads to a light-hearted and entertaining read. However, as soon as the prostitute shows up it begins to add some moral stuff that is both pathetic and stupid.
I'm still going to read this to see how it will go after the current arc but I'm not holding my breath.

I wouldn't mind if an ex-prostitute is added to the harem as long as the manga doesn't make a big deal out of it. Unfortunately it keeps trying to explain to us why her being a prostitute isn't bad and we shouldn't judge her based on that. Except that this girl decided to be a prostitute by choice, sure she needs money to help with her family's debt but:
1. Why must she be a prostitute? There are tons of other professions available for normal female humans in this world. Sure she might make more money this way (which is never explained in the manga by the way but I'm leaving it here for the sake of discussion) but it is clear from the get go that the debt is so ridiculous it's impossible to pay off anyway so what's the point?
2. The whole debt thing started because the lord wants her to marry him. Are you really telling me that being married to an evil bastard is somehow worse than selling your body as a prostitute? What kind of stupid logic is this? I won't buy the explanation that prostitution doesn't have the same negative connotation as the real world because she keeps asking the MC if he would accept her despite her "dirty" body.
Add to that the fact she keeps feeling sad about being in this profession despite the fact she herself decided to do this when it wasn't absolutely necessary to do so and it just comes off as very dumb. I mean she can just quit anytime she wants because the brothel owner is apparently a good person and fully supports her in dealing with the lord.
As you can see as soon as moral and seriousness is introduced the manga becomes just as stupid as many of its peers.
