      sounds interesting, from the cover I guess the MC is going to try and destroy the capture targets reputations to win the girl?? LOL

        Huh. I kind of like the idea of an underdog protagonist smashing flags, and it could be good. Sevens was good for a while, though it went on too long, or at least the WN did.

          My guess was that the capture targets weren't so 'clean' personality wise to begin and perhaps MC is utilizing that to his advantage. I just bought the book so I'll check it out.

          Although if you wanted to check some illustrations legally then there's a free sample reading link from ebook store here.

          Luckily it includes the first few pages with illustrations so there you have it

          I can see where you're coming from with Sevens. Although I was alright with it because I started binging the series in one go after it was completely translated so the more chapters the better. Dragoon on the other hand I read when it was barely 50 chapters and while I liked it I feel the pacing at the end could have been handled better. Although author wrote Dragoon before Sevens so It's understandable.

            i've read the WN of this from syosetu.
            it was quite interesting. i find mc the least bland out of author's previous work with is a big plus.

                  'the game world setting is that women are treated as superior and men as plebs.' - I want it. I love this type of story. Will buy it if it become licensed.

                  What its by the author of seven. I want to read it ASAP

                    Every time I see that title I think MC is some background character.

                        Okay, now I REALLY want this.

                        EDIT: I went and read the free sample of volume 1 on Amazon and wrote a Twitter thread of my thoughts here, if anyone's interested: https://twitter.com/verdelishJP/status/1047273750675091457

                          @verdelishjp Glad it peaks your interest! Didn't know the second volume's coming at the end of this month. Was tempted to read beyond volume1 on syosetu but held out on that because reading with nothing beats reading an edited work with illustrations :P

                          On a side note, I browsed your twitter and realized you're the translator of "Fashioning Little Miss Lonesome"! I love that game. As a straight man it's the only otome game (VN) I ever played because my steam friend insisted the games hilarious and they were right

                            @santi-brathana Thank you so much! <33

                            FLML definitely has a somewhat broader appeal than most other otome games. Likewise, I think this LN could sell to a similarly broad demographic. Granted, I haven't read very far yet, but I think it could be popular both with guys who aren't familiar with otome games beyond "games for girls," as well as with otome fans who are curious to read about the average guy's reaction to their favorite genre (e.g. me, lol).

                              The manga started scanlation recently and it's pretty interesting so far so I created an LNDB page for the LN. This has gotten my vote.

                                        i caved and read the fan translation of Vol 1 and all i can say is, THIS IS GOOD!
                                        absolutely enjoyable enough that id rank it close to Bakarina level fun (and not just cause of the Otome Game setting)

                                          The manga version for this novel is at around 1/3 of the first novel. Too bad it's untranslated

                                          But hey if you're willing to try reading in Japanese then check it out here, the latest chapter is free to read
