This comic is by no mean detailed. It only has some detailed funny parts that can also be thoughtful. (I.e. parents comparing their children, or reminding oneself to stay collected around people who are out-of-this-world in terms of appearance, intellect, wealth, position, etc.) That's the only enjoyable, at the same time tolerable, part of this.
The female lead Dan-I at first I thought was pretty cool. She doesn't let all those pretty people get into her head. But further down the way, it gets really cliche and annoying:
-
She is constantly in denial of her flimsy existence in this Inso world. She is afraid she might disappear one day and no one will remember her (her harem of her best friend and the Four Heavenly King - lol, now writing about this, I just realised how similar they are to F4 in part that 2/4 guys liked her, not in the pushy kind of way like Tsuruga, but with consideration; one is similar to Rui, the other being a little bit bragging like Tsuruga. Just my thoughts).
-
She is also in denial that she is just a side character for whom receiving the affections of the potential male leads are out of line. (2/4 guys already expressed their likings towards her, but she constantly denies such aka the friend-zone is strong with this one.)
-
Yet, ridiculously she makes assumptions about another guy/blonde guy out of the circle being too good looking and assumed he is a "she-in-disguise" and brushes off all of his actions and her actions with one another as innocent friends with little regards to how her harem feel and behave (hostile towards that guy).
-
Feels like everything in her harem people's lives revolve around her: thinking of her, wanting to be and being with her, guarding her off from the blonde guy because they all decide they don't like him or her being around him. Obsessive and controlling much?
Some of these points are addressed but very flimsily. And the plot drags on.
I still follow this series out for good laughs. At the same time, female-oriented, romance-focused comics should really go out of the way to offer better, intelligent, and comprehensive works. This and many other popular isekais/reincarnations/transportations/similar genres, including the ones with 'seemingly' really smart female leads who are out to take control of their lives, will just gradually be a chore, often time cringy (because they might be too overpowered), losing their shine/becoming dull, consumer/sale-driven things that are just okay or mediocre.
Sure, laughs are important, wanting a carefree form of entertainment is important. But it can be something more, much more.
Just my opinions.
Edit: Why must every problems in Dan-I's life revolves around her harem or her being the centre of attention? Can't she just live it? If she is so insecure, in real life, I don't know who'd continue putting up or trying when the cons outweigh the pros - maybe S&M? Why can't they just go on their lives and do things the ways they want without a care for most others - if they are brave enough, and from the looks of it most of them are thriving without giving a care about their surroundings or mobs? The more I think about it, the more I see problems in their friendships and their very inward self-consciousness. And I usually don't see it too much with people who assume and keep things to themselves. Communicate. Clarify. Try to see.
And can't this be a friendship-focused comic? So much wasted potentials. Go liking some other people outside of your circle. Stop being so dang closed-off/exclusive. It's depressing.
Update: I dropped it since forever. It tries to be deep, the result is superficial instead - like many popular K-dramas.
