This story has SO much potential. Especially as a hârem with a great plot to support it, really a rare gem where härem is enjoyable for any female readers out there too. It’s worth the read since there’s no NTR, no r/, and everything is based on mutual feelings, trust, & respect rather than having a “collection”. None of the women in the härem feel like the “same type” or written horribly for the sake of satisfying the desire for smût (main reasons why I hate hârem stories). There’s variety in appearance, personalities, and in the way they support MC. They have opinions and try to resolve things as partners rather than “obeying” to whatever MC wants with no voice of their own. This feels more realistic when it comes to relationships. Long review: Writing Quality - The writing quality has definitely improved since Nanakawaichan began her writing journey with DLS then TIS. Since English isn’t her first language, there are still amateur mistakes here and there that makes the reading a bit awkward. Nothing that can’t be overlooked at times. I’m very impressed and very happy to see her put so much effort into her writing because I absolutely love her works. She has improved with the story pacing (in TIS, the pacing was a bit fast so the romantic development between MC and his härem didn’t feel 100% genuine). Meanwhile in SSS, there’s ample time for the love interests to develop feelings for the MC. Good job on that! Story Development - This is her writing’s strongest point. Even if her writing style is lacking in some areas, her story development more than makes up for it in my honest opinion. The suspense, mystery, anticipation, excitement, everything lights a spark and Nana-chan uses it so perfectly that it’s terrifying. I keep coming back for more since it’s so original and leaves a long lasting impression. I went a long while without reading her works and I can still remember important things as if I read it yesterday. To my taste, I wish the pacing could be a bit better, but that’s just a minor thing. Nana-chan has me hooked! Keep it up ♥️ Character Design - Character design is another strength of Nana-chan! Their personalities really come through with the dialogue which isn’t always easy to do. We get insight on their thoughts & feelings when we need the insight. The only complaint (again, just my preference) is that we don’t get background on the characters like we did in TIS and TDKHS. We do have snippets on Julia. But then there’s none on the characters surrounding the MC. I’m sure other people don’t care, especially if it doesn’t serve any purpose to the plot itself. But I like connecting/to comprehend characters at a deeper level. The reason for being who/what they are. Other than that, everything is really good! None of the characters feel one dimensional/hallow/just there to be there. World Background - Let me say this, Nana-chan’s imagination & creativity when it comes to world building is AMAZING. It’s one of the main reasons why this story has TREMENDOUS potential with the proper guidance. There’s so much to explore and so much we have to know, it’s exciting to think what else will be introduced in the story. I hope Nana-chan gains more recognition and continues to share her great stories here. I’m here to read them all ♥️♥️♥️♥️
