This review contains spoilers. In true shoujo fashion, of course the ML treats the FL coldly in public due to circumstances but secretly loves her. Kind of disappointing that she’s not very proactive. Things happen and she reacts but doesn’t take action on her own beyond trying to find a safe escape route, which is only in the beginning. Even through the maid also went back in time, she didn’t do anything majorly different to prevent things as going as they did in the first timeline.

Honestly suspected Seil from the beginning because he was nice to her the entire time and that would have been a crueler betrayal than the prince’s childhood friend being an obvious 2 bit villainess.

This review contains spoilers. Terrible characters all around. The FL did a better job defending herself in the first scene than she ever did in the rest of the series. Constantly victimized by guys that think with their nethers.

Sadly, she didn’t give any of the other guys a fair chance before she got stuck on the first dude that assaulted her. I felt like the black-haired childhood friend was the best option - it’s a shame because he respected her as a person the most and didn’t force himself on her.

The story was too rushed and didn’t give the other characters any attention. No backstory for the third blonde guy. Those pictures remain unexplained - I was expecting the “girl” that the FL used to play with as a kid to be actually the ML, but it’s an unsolved mystery. We also don’t see the picture she picks up from the floor. Doesn’t make sense that the ML is the legitimate son when he is second-born and his mother was a mistress.

The moms must have been out of their minds because how do you come up with our kids will be together when there’s an odd number of moms? Even if there were two guys, three girls / three guys / two girls, there would be an odd one out.

This review contains spoilers. Honestly was expecting a 3P situation at the beginning but as more of Souma’s character was revealed, I’m really glad it didn’t turn out that way. It’s difficult to like him because he’s so toxic. I thought he might tear out the corner of the page, but he ripped up the entire notebook. Then the attempted SA and only caring about getting what he wanted - hard to forgive. It’s astonishing how he was the most malicious but his love is arguably the most shallow of the three. He casually got a girlfriend, went guns blazing when he realized his feelings toward Yuuji, and then backed off when he got called out and recognized the hurt he was inflicting. In the what-if couplings at the end, the author even makes it clear that he is a dark person.

The only thing lacking - not enough content of the main couple.

This review contains spoilers. Last chapter really gives some whiplash and yandere vibes. The wholesome factor went further down. If you didn’t think Yoshiki was a red flag before, it’s cemented by the end. “Even if none of it was real”, what is the “it” exactly?

I’m scared of other reviewers’ interpretations where they think Yoshiki will throw Tsukasa away. My reading is that Yoshiki did get a thrill (but also fell in love) when he saw Tsukasa crying. Otherwise, there’s no reason to joke about dating and being scared of rejection in his internal dialogue. The whole stealing his girlfriends and marking them for life before breaking up is straight psycho behavior. Even if he didn’t bite them, the exes wouldn’t be taken back so he arguably ruined their lives when it wasn’t necessary. He did a number on Tsukasa too, isolating him and exacerbating the “omega = less beings” mindset. The ending heavily implies that he will make Tsukasa into an omega. An interesting twist but messed up. I choose to believe that this is all done in extreme possessiveness and out of overbearing love. Because it’s too sad for Tsukasa otherwise.

This review contains spoilers. Seems like your typical self-insert story written for men. This dude cheats on his wife by having intercourse with an enemy even though he said time and time again he wouldn’t betray his wife. Hypocrite - but these people all just met each other so it’s hard to believe their feelings aren’t surface-level. Lost respect for the MC, not worth the coins to read to the end.

This review contains spoilers. the ML is unbelievable - he loved her and knew that she loved him but tried to push her away. even though their marriage wasn’t recognized, he just gave up on doing anything about it. so what if they’re not married? hurt her heart for no good reason.

The feeling of impending doom that the author fostered chapter by chapter was a bit much. we get it, you don’t have to make it foreboding all the time, the impact is lessened by the constant foreshadowing.

This review contains spoilers. basically the title and nothing else. no character development or anything. it’s like someone came up with a concept and left it at that. you don’t even get to see their happy life afterwards. the servant having a penchant for technology was a means to exposing the cheating but has no other importance since the story ends there.
