Smashing together tropes...sorry Japan, even this sort of meta stuff is played out in your own turf.
I'll give this one a second chapter but then is off to "stuff I'll read when is finished" mines.
Still grateful for the translation, I wish good luck to the author.........unless is just an AD for the Light Novel.
More like one person with common sense vs typical Romcom tropes
That COULD be interesting, but it can still all boil down to a typical harem of girls who like the guy but can't properly say it, he knows it and doesn't do anything about it, yadda yadda yadda.
Is not like Harems don't get the occasional straight forward girl but usually you have a situation where either the guy is in too deep with one of the girls that he does not feel like getting involved with her OR he is too much of a lazy shit to put in the effort of trying to have a relationship.
