This is a concept that sounds stupid on the surface, but has a decent enough execution to make it interesting. There's a lot of room for improvement to be sure, but it was at least entertaining enough to be worth finishing.

Story - The MC is a 17-year-old hikkokomori who dies one day when he ventures outside his apartment to go eat ramen with his best friend. He finds himself in a pseudo-afterlife speaking with the person who is going to reincarnate him, but due to a misunderstanding, he is going to be reincarnated as a voluptuous Succubus. At his desperate pleas, they grant him a special exception wherein he's given an indestructible cow whose milk can sustain the MC so he doesn't have to woo men. From there, we follow the MC's troublesome new life through a series of more mishap and misunderstandings until she finally makes some friends who help her start turning things around. Overall, this story is fairly bland and takes a lot of cues from other stereotypical Isekai tropes; there were a couple of chapters that felt really slow and unnecessary to me. However, there's enough funny moments and cool character interactions that I was not bored and ultimately enjoyed it. 5/10; Could use a lot of improvements, but it's funny enough to be decent.

Art - There's a lot of good examples of art in here, but there's a handful of bad scenes that are hard to follow or are basically just empty space. Overall it was visually pleasing, but there's plenty of room for improvement here as well. I was definitely a fan of the character designs, though. 6/10; Satisfactory

Characters - While I find the MC's character development actually quite intriguing and engaging, and some of the side characters have amusing personalities, ultimately the majority of the characters in this work are utterly forgettable. It's even hard to distinguish a couple of characters from each other as they have very similar designs and personalities. This is another area where it just barely hits above the mark enough that I'm satisfied, but has a lot of room for improvement. 6/10; Cow is best girl

Overall - This feels like a story that needed some more time in the proverbial oven on all fronts. It's like biting into a delicious roll and finding the center is still a bit dough-y. I'm not disappointed in it, and ultimately I did enjoy the work and I can faily say I'd recommend it to anyone interested in the genre, but it definitely could have been much, much better if there had been a bit more effort put into some areas. 6/10; Honestly surprisingly good for such a "dumb" isekai concept.
