This is a fine example of why I never trust reviews. This is pure wish fullfilment power up fantasy taken to the extreme. Obese bullied dude magically becomes thin, tall and handsome, literally. His body just changes. And now he's OP with all the op skills, items, you name it, he's basically a god. Oh and he can go back and forth between isekai world and real world but the author seemed to have used the isekai as an excuse to make him OP and then bring him back to the real world to show off. This is very low tier isekai fantasy. He's captain save a random girl. And all these girls just fawn over him because he has that sweet strong male scent you know, the scent of an MC. This is trash, there's no other words to describe it. If it was just a slice of life it would have been okay but they decided to add the fantasy element and that's were I draw the line. Don't use fantasy as an excuse to further you bull crap plot.

This is a spoiler-free review.

well. there are some but not big enough for you to not enjoy the manga afterwords

 

1st Update after 7 chapters.
I genuinely like this story. I just love how the mc is still being humble after all of that. It seems promising but there seems to be a lot of plot holes here and there. So far with the limited amount of chapters, it seems like another girl is introduced every single chapter. I know this seems like a harem but at least make the meeting casual and not forced.

Story: 7    Art: 7    Character: 9     Overall: 7.6

 

2nd Update after 8th chapter.
I read the LN after every chapter to the same point it ends, and I guess this is kind of accurate. As an adaptation, it is good, as a story, that's a different story. I hate the usual blushing after the first meeting trope and that is exactly what is happening in this chapter. It seems like the artist is trying their best to accentuate the Main Character's charm and "coolness." At this point, it seems repetitive despite the low chapter count.

Story: 6.5    Art: 7    Character: 9     Overall: 7.5

The idea of a frump-ball being turned into a hot guy but still retaining feir low self-esteem and underconfidence gave off a similar feeling as Lookism. Just think of this manga as Lookism, but with an isekai element thrown on top (and without Lookism's dual-body shtick). Our protagonist has a magical, Narnia-door that lets fem navigate freely between the real world and a fantasy world. The fantasy world parts of the story are devoid of hooks and are only there for the monster battles and interactions with the princess. The main story seems to be focused on the real world parts, but the biggest problem with these parts of the story is the personalities of the characters who act as antagonists--they are absurdly spiteful and cruel. The way the story is told is also not very good, with the first few chapters relying way too much on internal thought bubbles to express what was going on. I don't know how I feel about the harem aspect. I guess it's okay, but we'll see how it develops.

Do you like manga that is pure wish fulfillment, with zero plot, and things only happen so the MC can cause girls around him to cream their knickers? Do you like awful dialogue, shallow characters, and generic art? Well look no further, this is the manga just for you - and look at all those 10/10 reviews to confirm! Get your spoon ready to shovel some more hot garbage into you mouth!

So far the story is good but it sucks that it updates so slowly.

Yuuya the ML is super adorable and I just wanna hug him and punch anyone who dares to hurt him. Anyway I shall edit this when more chapters come out.
