The other reviewer rated this really low and it is understandable why he/she did. Everyone has different opinions on manga and some might hate how there are similar plots seen everywhere. Personally, I'm fine with all these recurring plots and if a author sees a type of popular plot, of course they would also do the same and have similar plots. If you're fine with recurring plots, JUST READ IT! The main character is surrounded by girls for a reason, its ecchi + harem after all.

Unlike zelly, the teacher is my favorite out of them all, it would still be fine if she wasn't a teacher, I like the chapters that include her. I also enjoy everything else that this manga offers.

Thank you for reading this.

Now that it's fully translated, I definitely recommend this one to everyone who enjoys harem romcom. If it weren't fully translated, and the ending were different, I'd probably not.

So, this is as spoiler free as I can make it, but I found the ending to be really interesting. So first off.. there's like 40 chapters of endings lol. With literally no forewarning, the author finishes the story, choosing one girl. Then.... goes back to a divergence point? What? ... and chooses a second girl, changing the plot/epilogue from then on. And then does it again. It's actually really like a Visual Novel with an extremely long common route, and short character routes.

To be frank, it's like the author wussed out on picking a girl... but gave literally EVERY fan a route for their 'Best Girl'. So no matter who you like going up until the ending, there's actually an ending for you.

Plus, and I do like this, the final final chapter is actually a complete reset lol. Goes back to that divergence point, and the MC continues on with his daily harem life basically... except all the girls retained the 'memories' of their routes, which they of course write off as overly-detailed delusions. I find this to be a particularly nice touch becuase it ensures that while the MC is in his current harem life, the girls now have a taste of something more - in some cases years worth of memories together.

That means the girls won't stay passive and allow the current situation to last, though of course that wouldn't be covered by the manga.

Anyway, all in all, i think it's a super fantastic way to wrap up a harem manga, without either going for 1 girl and pissing off the other 80% of the fanbase, or staying completely indecisive in a pathetic grab to make money (like To-Love-Ru).

"It's a pretty good lighthearted RomCom and it's damned hilarious sometimes, although the fanservice can be a bit excessive once in a while. I'd read it if you're into the RomCom genre."

I didn't like the senpai and sensei route , too weird for me I didn't eve। Give then a shot only furuhashi is the real route

The characters are the reason to read this manga, there's not much else going for it.

Nariyuki: A bland self-insert mc. He doesn't have any traits beyond "poor" and "dedicated". That's not necessarily a bad thing, as most people don't actually want harem/romcom protags to have too strong of a personality lest they become unrelatable.

Ogata Rizu: Easily the worst of the bunch. It's not a failing of the character, but rather the author's use of her. Both the narrative and Nariyuki himself treat her as more of a pet than a person, and her arc is incredibly short and easily resolved.

Fumino: Strong character dragged down by indecisiveness. She plays the role of "I can't be crushing on the mc, my friends like him!" which is an okay start but we get effectively no time past that trait as it takes her until the literal end of the series to come to terms with it. Her resolution with her dad felt too easy as well, he has emotionally neglected her for years as her sole guardian but it's all made okay instantaneously by a message from his dead wife and never addressed again.

Uruka: Probably the strongest of the bunch, if just for simplicity's sake. She likes swimming, she likes her friends, and she likes Nariyuki. She's a seemingly endless beacon of positivity and when that positivity falters you know things are serious. She motivates Nariyuki, and he motivates her. It's a good combination.

Asumi: A bit of a weird one. Early on, she doesn't have much going for her. She's an older tease, but that's about it. When they do get around to giving her an arc, though, it hits. She wants to be a doctor because she looks up to her parents who are, but her anxieties gnaw away at her and make her fail. It's a mirror to the same problems the other girls face, but it's confronted more directly rather than just repeatedly saying "I'm going to keep going down this path!" and then being put on the backburner.

Sensei: Crucify me for this one... I don't like her. A lot of people like her for her two-sided nature, at school being an ice queen perfect teacher while at home and on the inside being an absolute mess. It's a good dichotomy, but it goes too far in the mess territory and never really shows her good side as a teacher. Her true self is incapable of cooking, cleaning, understanding others, and even basic tasks like taking out the trash or purchasing groceries. At school, we're told she is respected and a great teacher but never shown it. We're just made to assume as much even though her main showing as a teacher with Ogata Rizu and Fumino was a failure both academically and emotionally. I genuinely can't understand her crazy success in character polls. I guess people just want to fix her.

Endings: The author does something I've not seen elsewhere where instead of a single ending, each of the five main girls gets their own ending where they end up with the MC, each about eight chapters as a sort of "What If?". I see this lauded as good because everyone can get their ending (well, unless they wanted harem end) and have a satisfying conclusion, but honestly it felt weak to me. The only ending that directly tied into both the theming and events of the manga was Uruka's, while the others just felt like wish fulfillment. It felt a bit like the author wasn't confident enough to pick one ending, rather than really going for full branching paths with setup and payoff. I would've rather the extra 32 chapters just be more combined story and then one definitive ending.

Last but not least, the harem trappings

"Lucky" pervert moments: A constant throughout this. They're seemingly played for comedy, but usually don't actually do anything with it beyond the initial fanservice. Oops, a kid pulled down their skirts. Oops, Ogata Rizu's breasts are too big and caused a wardrobe malfunction. Oops, sensei landed her ass on Nariyuki's face for the fifth time. She must main Princess Peach and love a good side-B.

No other male characters: Technically Nariyuki has two male friends and a little brother, but they get even less page time combined than his dead dad. There's a couple other dads running around too, but again, they're usually one-note characters with a single trait and next to no page time. It really hammers in how much the series is just about the girls.

Only the MC has agency: Truly, the world revolves around him. If there is a problem, he solves it. If there is a choice, he makes it. Even if the problem is very specifically one of the girls' and unrelated to him, he will be essential to its resolution. On the off chance they actually do make a choice, it's at his advisement.

The girls don't actually like each other: following up on the last one, the MC is the core of the world and everyone's interactions. We're told the girls are great friends, but we're never really shown it. Even when they're very specifically on their own doing their own things, the conversation always cycles back to him. You heard that right, a series with nearly 200 chapters and a 5:1 female-to-male ratio still somehow managed to fail the Bechdel test.

It's a genuine shame. When the characters are just living their lives separated from the aforementioned problems they're all incredibly charming. But you can't escape it, these issues rear up in literally every chapter.

If you liked this series, you'll probably also like Quintessential Quintuplets and Nisekoi

Nothing more or less than a cute romantic comedy, with an MC with a heart of gold and 5 cute girls that have feelings for him. There is 1 "canon route" and 4 alternative routes, with an extra chapter to wrap it up. It's competently written and well drawn, with expressive characters and cute expressions.

A nice way to spend a few hours if one is in the right mood for it.

Author pussied out on the ending

It's fun and cute.

My real rating for this manga would be around 8.5, tbh, this is one of the better 'reality escape' genre manga especially in the rom-com comedy harem. (art & enjoyment: 10, only some of the stories were bland (around 7-7.5), other can be quite funny and hilarious). Read this in one fell-swoop (103-ish chapters)

There are some story chains that were good, especially story related to Furuhashi, I found it quite interesting (father-daughter relationship).
Looking at bright side, I loved every single interaction of Furuhashi's and Yuiga's and their reaction.

@zelly006
What would you expect of this manga?
If you want to find realism you might want to look for different genre (you can see the genre list here:

Comedy Ecchi Harem Romance School Life Shounen

For example,
If you love 'Yaoi', of course you would abhor/detest/hate this kind of trope and I find it unfair for you to give the 'plot' or whatever you have in mind.

Notes:
To balance zelly006's unfair rating out, will give this manga 10.0. (just for the sake of fairness)

I love this harem series, it's amazing. Just hoping it won't end up like nisekoi or the world god only know, where the MC choose 1 heroine or make other heroine/s crying (I'm looking at you nisekoi)
Don't say anything about bland or repetitive, this is what Japanese called 'template'
Just be honest, sometimes we need a thing that easy to swallow or a reality escapement, that is why Japanese always do create something like this.
So if it's not your cup of tea, just give us some respect and let it pass.
