Mousugu Shinu Hito review

Mousugu Shinu Hito (English: Seeking for Death) is a very harsh deconstruction of the harem genre.

It asks the question of why would all of these women want such a passive an indecisive man's affection in the first place, and answers it with pure cynicism.

Like most harems, where females vie for the MC's affection because "He was kind to me", the women end up flocking to Riku Kominato for the same reasons, but this is where the similarity ends.

Due to the "Die Anyday" video, any woman in Riku's "harem" will eventually die if they are not chosen by Riku. This is where the main conflict occurs, as characters encounter mental strain from their impending deaths while they try desperately to have Riku fall in love with them, even as they encounter harassment from the student body. After all, they'll die soon.

Characters: The characters in Mousugu Shinu Hito really shine in how they develop. In most harems, character development usually ends with them falling in love and being added to the harem. In Mousugu Shinu Hito, character development starts after being added to the harem.

Haju grows more obessive as her best friend tries to take her crush away from her by abusing the fact he likes her. Riko becomes entirely motivated by not dying. Aoi becomes heavily invested in finding the culprit for the "Die Anyday" website. Mikoto is angry at having her and Aoi involved in Riku's "harem".

Overall, enjoyable.
