I just can't decide whether I like the MC or not. On the one hand, he's quirky and a good guy, and levelling-to-OP stuff is generally fun, but on the other hand, his attitude towards attention is... unhealthy to put it mildly.
Maybe he'll get some good character growth, wouldn't that be something.
Karen is cute though, her I like very much, and Akane is just such an unapologetic asshole it's delightful!
