Plot: They're trapped and trying to survive.
Nerd waifu gaslit him into being a sadist, and now she's having an absolute cinema with MC dominating all the other waifus

honestly i'm surprised they haven't needed/ran outta food since all that sex prolly burns calories, i imagine even if they did have a dedicated gardening club it's not some rural countryside where usual students would've grown their own lunches normally

Dunno if we'll get an explanation for 'why', if it's not the nerd girl setting up the barrier or some 'force' that won't let them free till he 'conquers' them all lol (although one of them was a housewife? so not impossible but i imagine she'd be the 'last' target)

So uh what's the plot again?

S-tier explanation
Admittedly, though, as fucked up as it is, it's probably for the best. And I'm sure that the Nerd-Waifu (Mimori) knows it.

Most couples/polycules that are into BDSM (Bondage and Sado-Masochism) will tell you if you ask them up-front: While things like themes and the tools used might be a group decision, it's the sub who ultimately sets the pace and what direction their play goes. And Mimori here is being Beta As Fuck.

I'm pretty sure Mimori is a high-functioning sociopath. Not necessarily a bad thing - there's a lot more of them out there than you realize, and some of them don't even realize they're sociopaths themselves! These people are the charming liars, the big risk takers, and the social engineers that help keep a society dynamic.

This group did a fairly good job trying to keep things together by keeping themselves busy with all the work their continued survival demands. But in the end, they're all homesick to one degree or another, and the stress has been piling on. For example, before Haruka dealt with Seira and Mugi, Seira was abusing the fuck out of Mugi, far beyond what people who practice BDSM would say is kosher.

Granted, this isn't much better. It's still close enough to "50 Shades of Gray* territory to be squicky for a fair few. But by having Haruka establish dominance like this, setting a rigid hierarchy and forcing them to consider this to be their world now? Mimori might be having an absolute blast, but she's also doing this with this thought in the back of her head: "It's going to be super-bad for everyone if someone really breaks down and commits suicide or kills someone else."

The mangaka seriously did their homework on the psychological impacts of being part of a small group in a survival situation. Their behavior is so believable that it's almost scary. Thank God they find a good moment here and there to inject a bit of humor.

(Like that moment at the end of Chapter 30 where Mimori realized she done goofed by forcing Haruka to abstain for too long and is about the get the pussy-reaming of her life. Ralphy-I'm-In-Danger-Hee-Hee.jpg)

What made me like the series.

In TV series for example, it’s too often they indulge in the “human are all selfish creatures” by blatantly showing the characters becoming animals and start backstabbing each other just because they are evil-inside.
This one focused more on the trying to hang on their sanity and cling to keeping things as normal as possible. Including their sense of position/role in community. So it somehow felt more like their struggling rather than showing “ugly side of humanity” porn for the audience.

Dude really just flat out said to her face that he doesn't really care if she's being driven into a corner, then 2 seconds later claims to care about her as a friend, lmao.

iinm, there are similar kind of case in real life. Usually in abusive relationship.
The abuser crush their victim’s self-worth, and then make the victim became mentally dependent on them.
Those kind of the abuser suddenly saying sorry, showing care, also can make the victim start doubting themselves, and lured to self-blaming (maybe it’s me who had been wrong, actually he is nice, he is feeling sorry, if I can just be better he wouldn’t be like this, I can help him, he need me, I’m needed, and so on).

It sounds stupid from 3rd party perspective who has the luxury to objectively observe from safe place. But if you’re cornered with nowhere else to go, everything you’re confident about yourself is constantly getting dissed until you’re not sure of yourself or your self-worth anymore, and then given one place, an identity to hold on to, people’s broken mind can get desperate.

It’s been what Mimori been doing in general.
Corner them, and then when they’re defenseless, give an exit to run away from things they can’t take anymore.
And the invisible cage here is, they’re haunted by anxiety about rejecting Haruka. They already lose self-confidence about standing for themselves (from trauma of situation that cornered them). Even if they try to stand on their own, what if they fail, and now they have nowhere else to fall back to. So they would rather take what Haruka had given them for a price, rather than take a risk to where they have failed before.

Hmm, is that why this feels so frustrating to read compared to other mind break stories?
I don't know much about psychology. But there are other good solutions other than having everyone be dependent on Haruka, right?

I like harem, of course, and that's why I'm reading this.
But I just find the whole group intentionally bullying Yuki to be too much. (probably because if I were on the receiving end, I would either get violence towards everyone or off myself)

Oh, I'm sure there are. But that's not the story being told. As I mentioned before, I'm pretty sure Mimori is a sociopath, and thus she's handling this dilemma the way a sociopath would.

I'm gonna bet the wife and mother is going to take the most convincing.
Maybe instead of him being a sadist he’ll try to act young/“cutesy” in a way that triggers “motherly instinct”
There is a complete tl in another language but idk if you can understand just by skimming the pages

Inb4 the housewife has an “unhappy marriage”/shitty husband so it’s easier for her to “abandon” him lol

Late, but scrolling back I found this and felt it deserves an explanation.

Thing is, they're somehow getting unlimited supply of air and water. I think electricity, too. So it's not like it's an entropically isolated system. They got by at first with the food the school had in-stock, but they got cracking pretty quickly on growing their own food. And they had been working on expanding the gardens into full-fledged farms.

Trouble is, plants are all they have to eat. Not that completely vegan diets aren't doable - far from it. But they are more difficult to maintain than omnivorous diets, requiring a good deal of variety to make up for the needed proteins you'd normally get from animals. And, conversely, fully carnivorous diets are equally hard (if not even more so) to maintain, requiring you eat some of the less desirable parts of an animal as well - some of which these days carry some extreme risk factors like prion diseases. (Hence why we humans evolved as opportunistic omnivores - when you can eat as many things as we do, survival becomes that much easier.)

Kinda surprised that author-kun didn't add chickens and rabbits if the school already had a garden (which is a thing for schools in Japan that have clubs focused on agriculture). They're both low-upkeep, and chickens would provide eggs on a regular basis, and rabbits breed quickly enough to be a reliable food source. And both are pretty much scavengers, so whatever leavings and trimmings they have can be fed to them. And, even better, the droppings from both can be made into some pretty kick-ass fertilizer.

But I can count all of this as a minor issue with the story. The author is much more interested in the psychological aspects and sex than explaining how they're able to survive with so little arable land. Which is a good call on their part. Stories like these, you gotta pick and choose where you want your focus to be. Although, admittedly, it would be the sign of a truly gifted author if they could include both without people wanting to skip the parts they "don't like".
