Very impressed so far. Plot thread details get a bit complicated, but the characteristizations and the relationships get handled quite well. Plot is also starting to shift to a bigger stage at this point and this is where a lot of novels fall apart. Power creep, new female love interests, or just a major tonal shift in an effort to keep the readers engaged usually weighs the story down. Here, the author is choosing to scope up in a way that feels pretty fresh and intentional, and while we get more characters, the core female leads are still getting attention. Best of all, the MC is getting development as well. Personally, the indulgent scenes that deepen character bonds and focus on slice of life are most rewarding. I’m a big fan of how often MC gets to reflect on his past through the POV of his wives and then gets an opportunity to do better, while still being aware that he was never criticized for his behavior. They are yandere but nothing about their feelings isn’t well justified at some point (last wife hasn’t had her back story fully explored yet). If anything, I think it’d be good for the MC to get a little more possessive and yandere after he gets closer to them. It’s more rewarding to deepen his current harem than expand the members endlessly. Overall I’d tell readers to definitely give it a try, and I’d encourage the author to keep going, as he’s got something special here. Keep up the good work!
