TLDR; I have to admit if you lower your standard, it is quite enjoyable since the main character isn't a weak bitch. Though the main character is not going to develop any real motive than to stay alive and that's it. She's a lovable idiot that doesn't have any real depth to her. She just unknowingly collecting her harem just like any other otome fucking stories. It wants to be a parody but it fails because it itself is stereotypical. It's like Adam Sandler making a parody of Adam Sandler.

Art: 7

Character: 5 (would have gotten six but weak depth to the main character is a set back)

I came looking for the manga after have watched 2 episode of the anime. So my review is most for those whom got interested from the anime and want to read ahead. I will be brutally honest. It's not really worth it. The anime production was honestly better. Not that the manga was bad it's just not that good either. It's honestly pretty average. ( I have 0 idea if the LN is good or not. )

So why is it average? I THINK, I honestly don't know but I think it is the lack of either experience or communication between Hidaka Nami (the artist) and Yamaguchi Satoru (the writer). Nothing about the art was wrong. Hidaka Nami did a great job with the drawings but conveying the emotional stuff always comes off quite generic and lacking. So yeah sorry to say, it doesn't feel like it really comes from her heart. Then again it is Yamaguchi Satoru's story. So he should also have done better job at communicating the heavier part. (If they work together at all?) However, I might also be too judgy. This manga is supposed to be a parody of otome games right?

So it's a parody of otome games and the main character is supposed to know the genre and all... yet the main character remain painstakingly fucking stereotypical. Stupidly fucking dense. Don't get me wrong, it's not like I don't like dense character. In fact I love them, they're adorable IF done right. Ok, so let me explain. Our main character likes love novels and romantic stories in general. She has not only during her previous years read and played many romance games even in her afterlife as Katarina she still continues to read them. SO SHE OF ALL PEOPLE SHOULD BE ABLE TO READ THE MOOD? Like for FUCKS sake, being kissed on the neck and accept the excuse that it was because of A FUCKING MOSQUITO... SHE IS ABOUT 30 YEARS OLD!

Anyways, I had high hopes. I thought finally a strong female lead who actually wants to lead her own life and not be led by others. In a way she does just that and that was probably why I read all the 24 chapter. She does thing in her own pace but sadly her pace is very stereotypical. I thought maybe this could be the new skip beat. Like really they even showed her thought process where she would think to herself as a counsel with other version of her-selves like in Skip Beat. But sorry. There isn't going to be any real depth to it really. The main character is not going to develop any real motive but to stay alive and that's it. She just unknowingly collecting her harem just like any other otome fucking stories.

Aaaand that's it for my rant. Sorry if it's bad writing. But still I wanted to rant and have an opinion. Also another good harem with a main character that actually reflect on stuff while focusing on romance; Kiss him, Not me. Then there's Oresama Teacher but this one doesn't focus much on romance but more on their daily life....as least it did last I read it. Bye~
