This is my favorite series of all time, mostly because its p*rn with real plot. The plot takes time to slowly works itself out, and while it my seem like a text dump just to see how many chapters it can punch out it allows each character to flesh themselves out and be able to stand up from just being side girl #1 or #2.

I actually like the MC, from the start he seems weak but starts to slowly develop over the story. While he may not be the smartest... more>> I believe its important to remember that he is basically throw into the deep end of the pool without floats. Since he has no knowledge of how criminal organizations work, others have to explain it to him which make him seem more real. Not every person is going to know exactly how everything works from the start.

Spoiler

Only two girls get r*ped so far.

This is a really good series and you should give it a chance. Just know going in that it is a very slow series. <<less

This Novel is truly a MASTERPIECE!

I dislike this kind of novel at 1st, thus this novel is 1 of my last novel in my reading list. But after reading it, I realized that I was wrong, this novel is really good, so much different from other novel in the same kind as this one, this novel is a true masterpiece!

You will never see a character like Yukino in all other novel with same genre, and the uniqueness of this novel that the characters are alive. AT 1ST MC is the... more>> one being guided by the girls, is so different than the other novel of the same kind which only have MC raping dolls (girls with no personality whatsoever) after dolls and the dolls just exist there to be r*ped by the MC. This one actually has amazing plot, which is rare for hentai novels with so many s*x scenes.

Anyway, this novel is a must read! And I have to drop this here just in case!!

YUKINO IS THE BEST GIRL!!! :) <<less

This is really enjoyable. I have read a few R-18 novels but this is probably the best so far. There is actually a plot in the story and it's progressing steadily. Unlike some other series which I won't mentioned that have no plot and just provide s*x scenes each and every chapter.

Yes, the story is kinda dark but that's make this good. To be honest I wasn't expecting much when I started this series but I was kinda blown away because there is an actual goal to the story. The... more>> characters are twisted but that what makes the series fun. It's kinda scary what kind of ending this will provide considering that they are more or less a Crime Syndicate so death and r*pe will probably happen sooner or later but if it get well executed I bet it will be another highlight of the story.

The characters have some solid background to them which sometimes makes you cry.

This series have a really well balance story which will surely make you cry, laugh and of course h**ny.

The only downside of the story is the MC is like a Puppet that will obey whatever he is told by the people he likes. It's kinda sad but there is at least an explanation why he became like that but HOPEFULLY his character will develop at some point in time. I mean there is like 1, 000 chapters if he doesn't mature then that will just be sad. For now I'd give it 5 but if he doesn't develop as a human then I will definitely lower the rating. <<less

I'm really impressed with this novel, I didn't expect that much out of a light novel chosen randomly, even less a 18+ rated one, with tags like "rape", "netori" and "harem".

Usually, what you get from that are cheap novels of a quality even lower than your random reincarnation novels, with characters and story barely existing for the sake of the s*x scenes.

Here, we have quite a few interesting character (though all of them have a few loose screws), and something that tries to get a somewhat coherent story. Every character... more>> has its flaws, quite a few of them could be described as "crazy", but it somehow makes them feel much more human (but not humane) than quite a lot of characters on light novels. That said though, they are very far from the "norm" you would expect from human beings, so it can really break the immersion if that puts you off.

Like usual, you have a protagonist with near limitless stamina, and quite a lot of the situation don't feel realistic at all.

The writing style is not exceptional, the translation mostly decent (mostly a few typing errors rather than full on grammatical errors).

The narration is mostly first person from the protagonist, but it spares us from the "style" that's raw thoughts with sound effects everywhere, and lots of exclamation points. It feels more like a proper narration made from the point of view of the main character instead, with a few of his thoughts and reactions inserted in there.

All in all, I had a lot of fun reading this, and the "story" parts that are usually filler between s*x scenes were actually what made me continue reading after the first arcs. Do keep in mind that it's by no mean a nice relaxing story, and it's certainly not your usual scenes from the 15+ and harem stories. <<less

I quite agree with the negative reviews of this novel. And I disagree with the translator, my favorite female character I Yukino. She may be selfish but she doesn't deserve what happened to her. Also the heroines aren't saints either.

My biggest problem with the garbage psychology. Garbage psychology explanations for things that want to sound clever but are utter nonsense. For example.

Spoiler

We are told that the protagonist is a broken being and that she needs Yukino. And even after having s*x with other women she is the one with he has the best chemistry. This happens multiple times. Then suddendly one of the heroines says with no explanaition "he no longer needs her" and they get rid of her.

[collapse]

And let's not forget the reason those girls fall in love with him and think he is necessary to them:

Spoiler

He pays full attention to the woman he is having s*x with. He is completely inmersed. And for some reason this impress the crazy women he has s*x with and the ones watching.

Great novel, but it has some darker parts to it too. If it is for you, then you'll love it, but I can definitely see lots of people not enjoying it too. Give it a try if it sounds right.

The plot of the story goes too fast in some parts and in others it drags into an infinite cicle of repeating plot points that is honestly too frustrating to continue reading.

... more>>
Spoiler

The only reason I've read up to this point was because of the thing going on between Yukino and the MC, however the conflict between these two characters sums up to the MC being braindead enough to think that every girl he r*pes will develop Stockholm syndrome after a few interactions and Yukino seeing the MC for who he really is. However, once Yukino is taken out of the picture this whole novel falls apart for me since the main reason I even started reading it was to read the interactions between the MC and her, not the MC being the center of a s*x cult with uninspired s*x scenes.

[collapse]

For me this novel's only redeeming quality was this dynamic duo, since if I craved a crime drama or repetitive s*x scenes I wouldn't be reading this novel. <<less

First 30 chapter you feel pity for girl who is ra*ed when you at 60 you hate the girl, the readers who is on 0 to 30 chapter they don't deserve to write the review of this novel only 50 and above chapter reader can understand the MC and the novel. People are saying MC is s*upid, he naive ya he is and also kind to every body just like demon slayer MC but character development is going on very quickly, he is changing, his character is like that because... more>> of his daily life is not good, he is alone from his childhood anybody don't talk to him because of that his communication skills is not good at start, but with every chapter his courage is rising, his communication skills is increasing he is becoming dominant

I am now at ch 171 his thinking is changing, at start of novel he trusts everybody but after getting harsh lessons in daily life now he don't trust others easily

Spoiler
[collapse]
His second s*ave is always thinking of betraying him and to run away from him, he is naive he trust easily like fool, he love her from start when he knows what is going on his thinking changed he is becoming more and more manly, dominant, he start controlling the emotions of girls little by little.

We can connect with MC easily when he is emotional I also feel emotional when he is happy I also feel happy, author is showing us novel also by MC viewpoint. The author thinking is very good you can not predict sometime what is going to happen.

Chapters are very long, good and intresting <<less

I find my self becoming more twisted while reading this, I'm only at chapter 33 but the story only got good around the 25th chapter or somewhere around that, I was thinking about droping the story at first cuz he was just raping his so called "first love" at the start of the story. The MC really undergoes character developement and becomes more confident in himself he doesn't stutter anymore like he did at the start of the story, for me this story is pretty good so far I'm personnaly... more>> not good with R-18 scenes so the start of the story was hard to read for me

1. First of all I think MC only love yukino no matter what but due to Yuzuki Minaho it turns in different direction just as said in 3 chapter

2. Yukino and her sister does not do any thing wrong but they were draged into their play

3. Yuzuki Minaho and yukino father has few common things I think no matter what

4.i think haren girls does not realy love MC, they are just following it just like a trend (like copying yours friend styles just with the flow) they will... more>> netori him in the back if they found some one

5. Yukino done noting wrong yet suffered I think harem girls should not be campare to her because the come to like MC through scams yet yukino is yukino

6. After they send yukino to her home I stoped just now and search context I saw them and conformed there will be less yukino so I stoped reading this I am sorry

7.i think writter should change the character of MC from the start because MC thinks love means not wants to violates*x and keep near him and says them not to have s*x with others yet he did the same if they object Yuzuki Minaho just makes sceams I think love means trust, carrying, accepting who they are not making them some thing they are not (just like yukino sister) harem girls I think not human beings any more they are turning into some thing like s*x robots who are programed with some errors to come to like MC (I use like then love that is what I think)

8. I wish yukino to not go through out this because she is just innocent and dumb and and think just for her not like hypocritic MC and other characters who blame others or make them self to attach to MC like her sister she face the world not like broken MC even she wanted to rise her child I think others are just says bear his child because of jealousy of yukino is going to bear except few

9. Yukino even can not wear her bride dress any more I fell pity towards her and does not wants to enter MC harem even through she was the first victim I think MC should just go and die

Reading this novel stresses you out. Everyone else treats the main character like he is a f**king idiot, including the main character himself. Two important characters in this novel give the main character lessons and tests in the form of very compromising situations. By themselves, it makes for good reading but the tests never stop. The two characters say that it is training for the future, however given the attitude of the main character, the moral of these lessons can just be told to him and it would reach... more>> the same effect. They treat the main character like a lab rat monitoring all his actions, how he moves, and who he talks to. The story tries to say that this is because they care about him but if they did they would not be going to such extremes.

I have read over 1000 chapters of this novel and I've only enjoyed about 300 of them. As the story goes on, situations which would have been over with in 3 chapters take 10-15. It is clear the author has started running out of ideas.

With all that said, this is a good smut novel with story elements.

If you are looking for something like this but in my opinion better go and read:

Damn this is slow. So slow that I have to write this review and drop this now at chapter 219. The s*x scenes are great!

Like I mean I started reading the novel because everyone said how good of a plot it is and how dark it is.

I want to say that only having a good plot and be done with it is not the way. The execution is more important. Sure it has an interesting premise but how to describe it, ah yes, let's think of the premise as the... more>> center of a cake that is chocolate but it's surrounded by sand so how can you enjoy the said cake?

Bruh this sh*t is one of those where you came for le*ds but stayed for the plot. Its It's definitely f*cked up, especially with all the things they're doing, but it keeps you wanting to read more.

The novel depicts a typical ignorant, submissive and powerless jp d*ck head male protagonist, who should have met his tragic end. It is special compared to some jp novels with overpowered protagonists constantly making love with more and more harem members. That said, this novel wasn't my cup of tea personally due to its excessive and repulsive r*pe scenes, and the fact that I did not favor the character development. Read the spoiler to learn more.

... more>>
Spoiler

The male MC was a dumb, worthless and pe*verted coward who relied on Yuzuki "sensei" (a previous r*pe victim who wanted her pretty female students to be r*ped as well for her amusement) to achieve his "dream". Like a typical p*mp, he was attracted to the appearance of the female he "loved" (Shirasaka) but blind to other aspects. It would be quite accurate to say that he had an unusual yet intense desire of possession of Shirasaka in many ways. His lust towards her, his jealousy and desire of revenge towards her boyfriend (Endou), his pain due to being bullied and lack of attention in school, his pathetically low self esteem... these factors made him vulnerable in mentality and paved his way to become a r*pist and a mere tool of amusement for Yuzuki.

While the MC might not be able to outwit Yuzuki in the end, there were actually many opportunities in which he could have change his fate if he gave a deeper thought.

A decent man would have a second thought about having a relationship with a girl like Shirasaka who had such abnormal facade and bad eyes for people (Endou), but the mc's obsession apparently blinded him.

He was shown a list of Shirasaka's personal information by Yuzuki which included the fact that Shirasaka stopped playing her favorite sport and constantly suffered from sense of "guilt" (her unavoidable personal circumstances deterred her sports team from competing in a sports competition in the past). Endou, on the other hand, was currently playing his favorite sport and was going to join a competition. Quite a coincidence, wasn't it? Endou was doing something that Shirasaka couldn't in the past, in addition his mentality was stronger than hers. She was like a moth attracted to fire. Her admiration (or maybe envy) for him was no doubt one of the major reasons of his attraction. Nevertheless, she never overcame her own problems. Endo was an impulsive and single-minded young boy, and the MC knew that. Endo would continue to ab*se the MC and would definitely attempt to get into Shirasaka's pants regardless of his promise.

Combining these elements, it would be easy for the MC to stage multiple NTR incidents without becoming a brute rapist himself. The MC should also have realized that he should utilize Yuzuki's great "assistance" (including the staged incident) and her resources instead of blindly following her script. However, the mc's action proved that he never used his head even at the most critical moments, and it was logically inevitable that a tragic end awaited him unless the writer was going to make more nonsense to let him live. I basically lost interest beyond this point.

Good story and development but it's full of filler and repetitive stuff. You can literally skip 10 chapters when reading this and still know what's going on in the plot.

For example, the amount of times the author tells readers how sad MC past is or how one of the girls want to be a baker is honestly amazing. There was one time when I clicked the wrong link and went 20 chapters ahead but I didnt notice it because they're still in that fcking room.

A great story that has s*x as a medium and a plot device. The characters aren't one sided and don't exist solely to be r*ped/fapped to. Four stars up until the timeskip, in which case I vote it two stars. It's a fun story and while the underground/criminal aspect gets even more absurd, it actually feels just fine. The very first girl and the MC also have the best relationship/interactions eventually, as all the other girls either one sidedly adore the MC or let him use them for comfort (like... more>> crying on them), meanwhile that girl is not only the person aside from the MC that realizes how s*upid absurd the harem is in interactions, she's also the only one he has different types of interactions with and these two have the greatest amount of Trust due to what they see in each other, despite the horrible things they're doing to each other.

Unfortunately this story goes downhill after the epilogues as it throws away some of the development of one of the main girls, making her spiteful and alone, as well as being incredibly biased and unfair in how it treats it's characters because the author himself goes too far in making the harem. Before the epilogue,
Spoiler

all the girls are somewhat getting along, but also start up their own factions either purposely or subconciously, because of this the spiteful girl ends up having nobody on her side despite having both loved the MC and the other harem members of the "Family". This loneliness and lack of allies because of the author wanting to cause drama for the sake of drama, turns her from quiet and insecure while wanting to get better and deserving of her position to the MC, to selfish, loud, and too idealistic. Worse than that, because nobody is on her side, even when it's mentioned that the other harem members made some mistakes in dealing with her or just in general, it's always let go while the lone girl gets hit with the brunt of the heat and blame. And beyond even that, ALL the girls except for this one are always allowed to let their own selfishness and mistakes when dealing with others get ignored after one or two lines, while the lone girl is constantly sh*t on by the others.

The author is also forcing the MC after the timeskip to act exactly as the Family/Harem wants him to even as he keeps his innate traits and thoughts of devoting himself to the family. This causes things to feel even worse as it's clear the nobody understands what they should be doing with him and yet nothing is done about it. For example because the MC is too considerate of them, he never fully lets his lust loose upon them, and yet instead of teaching him that they want that, they instead force him to bang more girls (which, incidentally, makes the situation with the Lone girl mentioned above even worse) There's also a contradiction that the first girl who he loses his v*rginity with is the only one he can use to satisfy his lust, but after the first few times it's clear that he isn't one sidedly using her body like they say, but instead earnestly having s*x with her as he does with the other women. The second contradiction is that his body literally faints due to needing to fulfill the s*xual desires of the younger girls except the Loner girl, but not only is that swept aside, they never stop asking him for s*x (despite knowing he is literally unable to say no) and instead ask him to have s*x with even more girls. While he is eventually able to distinguish from having s*x with NonFamily Harem and FamilyHarem, that doesn't exuse the fact that they're forcing him to do something unnecessary.


One of the worst traits this has is the utter bias in attention. While there's the lone girl mentioned above who gets the absolute sh*t end of the stick as she has proper reasons for her insecurities and few mistakes but is always made out to be the bad guy and has the least amount of scenes (at least she has two lovey dovey scenes that are cute to read, but after that it never happens again because the author's purposely being a d*ck at this point because he's trolling the japanese readers who called him out), the ones with the short end of the stick are the older members of the harem, who either have their s*x scenes interrupted, skipped over, and connect with the MC so quickly that he only learns a single thing about them (as well as them always having one traits to their interactions, which is motherly, or are just super lustful mature beasts, so really they're actually boring when you read them), meanwhile one sempai love interest is not only specifically said to be the one he loves the most, she makes the most mistakes when dealing with others and it never feels like she properly reflects in comparison to the other girls, the other sempai love interest not only brings in more members of the harem (with this faction always working together to have the MC themselves, and these girls that were brought in steal both the position and the actions that the lone girl was trying to have) she's also given better traits than the lone girl so whenever she makes a mistake it's ignored as she is specifically called out to be very smart and thoughtful to her surroundings (even though these are also traits given to the lone girl, the second sempai has them on a greater level, making the lone girl's existence in the harem even more useless). Meanwhile all the girls younger than him are more or less just lolis (who have the most amount of s*x scenes unfortunately) and they all team up together (and as you guessed, leave the lone girl completely alone)

Wow! This novel gave me a really pleasant surprise. When I started this novel I thought that it would be another flat story with only s*x and r*pe, but this novel really has a plot, and a very good one. I will divide my review in topics.

Plot (4/5) :

This novel has a very well written plot with depth, twists and of course cliffhangers.

There are a lot of references to really old movies and series, to artists and history, so you'll learn a lot of things if you are young, like... more>> me.

The relationships between the charecters are awesome, all of them have their well defined personality, hobby, fetish and traumas. While you read you'll know every one of them, some you'll realy hate and some you'll love.

Society in this novel is really realistc, apart from the gun parts, I live in Rio de Janeiro and at least every week a person is shot near here, but in this novel the gangs are using stick, fist and rubber bullet :/.

Another drawback is that this plot is hyper super ultra slow... one week was like 600 chapters...

So if you don't have patience and determination you'll drop this. But don't drop please! Later on it turns good.

Overall the plot is good, the author lives in japan a well developed country so there's no helping in it.

Charecters (5/5) :

No drawbacks here, all of them are well written.

The gratest part is that the worse character was initially the MC but his personality developed along the story.

It was a smooth and well written development.

Romance/Harem (5/5) :

Yeah man, this is a new concept of love hahahaha, the characters are too much croocked that they love is a "little bit" different that the usual.

But their relationship with the MC is really fun, I laughed a lot, and all of them are cute.

The best f*cking part is that the MC didn't save the girls life or be badass for their fall for him!!! Thanks god!

He only save two girls, one love him, and the other I think she has a habit of eat sh*t so she hate him...

Comedy (5/5) :

As said, the relationship with each other is very fun. There's some parts with crooked logic that will make you'll laugh a lot.

Action (4/5) :

As said, the action is good, but hardly one will die.

These were the main genres I think.

Advise (spolier) :

Spoiler

The 100 first chapters are filled with crimes including r*pe, pe*ophile, and kidnapping. Actually they are really dark, so if you can't handle them drop it or you'll be angry.

After these chapters the story will get lighter and more enjoyable so if you really want to know why this is so good be strong.

Only a personal tought: You'll hate Yukino, she's the worse sh*t I've ever seen!!! WTF was that girl. You have just to ignore her...

For the first 30 chapters or so, it might feel like your average r-18 novel that is filled with s*x scenes. As you keep on progressing, the story gets deeper and there seems to be a motive behind every action that is done by the MC or the other characters. The character development is rich and this is the first r-18 novel that makes me stay not for the s*x scenes but for the plot. As others have mentioned before me, I will mention it again: "This story is a... more>> master-piece"! <<less
