It was already a 5/10 even without the whole cucking, with it though? 2/10. Maybe I'll bump up the rating if it's so bad that it's good.
The cuckolding happened in Chapter 1 tho.
Remove the cuckolding and the ex gf's reason for it and it will be another wholesome boy-meets-girl romance.

My Dress Up Darling has a lot to answer for. Either that or there is a Gyaru marketing interest group that is making lots of people write about Gyarus with hearts of gold that are desperate to "slum it" with low value MCs. I'm not hating on the trope, but it is starting to get over used.

Did she even explained why him? I know that this kind of thing is mostly told later in romcoms but here i think it should be done right away. I know, that it's probably shitty explanation either way, but still.

What I meant is it's like any other basic rom-com with a bland MC and beautiful FMC, so it would be a 5/10 already. With the cucking added to the mix it's a 2/10.
Ah mb then. But the way I see it, without the cuckolding, it's a decent boy-meets-girl romance. The girl is sweet but aggressive.

You're right, she did, and the reason is awful.
She didn't really want to break up with him. She's still badly in love with him but was insecure wondering if he really loves her because he never touched her. She was expecting action. Basically, she was horny, but the guy treasures her like a museum artifact. So, the model girl suggested a fake break up and she'll try to seduce him to know how he really feels about the ex. Too bad tho, the model girl is really in love with the dude way before the girl and used the chance to steal him. He soon learned about it.

Can someone just spoil me completely. from start to end. I know one guy in the comment section did it but I feel like someone information regarding the end part kinda felt left out. Someone please let me in on the spoilers. I don't wanna wait months to finish this trash. I have a vague idea and it seems to be confirming with the comments but I just need one good summary.

The premise sounds like what if someone took a generic harem and made it so that instead of the guy, it's one of the girls who gets to be the center of the harem. So instead of being some guy's haremette she's the one trying to build herself a (mixed-gender) harem. I guess he's getting demoted from being (potential) harem owner to (potential) harem member.

The elephant in the room that makes this controversial is the part where she intentionally broke up a couple to do this.

I know I know, this needs a third "love interest" to be an actual harem. But I suppose it's a sort of subversion of the usual romcom formula, with one less girl just so it doesn't actually qualify as a harem. I think adding the NTR element was going too far for a subversion though. That was in poor taste as the ratings show, but maybe writing a dumpster fire from the get-go was the goal.

Yeah. I haven't even read a chapter and I can tell from the ratings that this is a bonafide dumpster fire.

So let me get this straight she seduces his girlfriend had her break up with him on call starts dating her then immediately asks him out saying she has no feelings for her and that she wanted him…. Oh yeah and then immediately admits to saying she’d two time them

She just sounds like a scumbag tbh



I’ll be here for the next chapter
I think the same but i need more chapter to do a better opinion

So his friend mentioned he was popular during a field trip or something.. I want to think that’s how Girl 2 met him and this is gonna be another ‘Childhood Friend’ route. That’s just me.

Both love interests are awful people and the MC is completely helpless. This isn't worth it. There's just nothing here to enjoy unless you love bad manga.

This is expanded on in the NovelUpdates comments:

Her first impression was incredibly strong, she essentially solidified herself as public enemy #1 right out of the gate. As the story progresses, you can see that the author is trying to get you to like her more, but her initial actions kind of overshadow anything else she does (at least for me). I mean, she "stole" MC's girlfriend, and then outta nowhere states that he was the main target all along, and she did so in the most arrogant manner possible.

What we come to learn later on is that the whole "steal your girlfriend" thing was actually a game/bet between Mizushima and Ena (they're childhood friends). If Mizushima could steal MC within a month it's her win, if not, Ena's win. Now the whole underlying reason for the bet is s*upid (but more on that when we talk about Ena), but it was proposed because Mizushima also knew the MC when he was younger (shocking). He had saved her from a drunk man who got hit in the head with a ball while she and her friends were playing. Everyone left her with the adult and MC happened to pass by and save her.

She fell in love with him from here and kept thinking about him throughout the years. Part of the reason she becomes such a public figure is in hopes of becoming someone worthy of MC and in hopes that he'd find her. However, right before entering an all girl's highschool, she gets a message from Ena (they had kept in touch over the years) with a picture of her new boyfriend (guess who).
Mizushima still covets the MC and still wants to be with him so she tells her parents she's changing schools to be with him and one day Ena complains about her relationship with her boyfriend to her supportive childhood friend.

She was pretty much manipulated into the whole game/bet thing by Mizushima, but it doesn't make what she and Mizushima did any less vile. How it went is that after complaining about her relationship, Mizushima saw her chance. She spilled everything about how she met MC in the past and her love for him, and proposed the bet. Ena feeling guilty for stealing her best friend's crush agrees, but forbids her from talking about the past.

Another thing to note is that Ena also agreed because she questioned if the MC really loved her. She grew up in a strict family and didn't get out much. Coupled with the fact that the MC didn't touch her (handholding, kissing, etc) she thought this was a good opportunity to find out (ya know, instead of just talking about it, but whatever).

MC goes along with the bet with Mizushima and during this time he is stalked, his family is potentially put in danger, and he is almost stabbed twice. Once while he was protecting Mizushima from a crazed fan (but she ended up shielding him and getting slashed on the forehead) and another time when her other crazed fan (her manager's sister) saw them together posing as a bride and groom for a photoshoot and tried to get rid of him (once again Mizushima took the knife, but this time she actually got stabbed in the side and was hospitalized for about a week). This is what I'm talking about with the author trying to paint her in a better light, but in the last instance of stabbing, MC was trying to take precautions but she basically said "I'll protect you, it's fine." Mind you the reason the stabber knew where they were is because she asked Mizushima out on a date to the aquariam, Mizushima said no, but still took both tickets and used the other one for MC (to which he foreshadowed "you're gonna get stabbed someday"

After Mizushima is released from the hospital we get the confession. It's been a month and she once again confesses to MC, but he turns her down (but not because he doesn't like her or he still sees her as the one who stole his girlfriend), it's because he didn't want to see Ena said because at this point he still thought they were doing this behind her back.

With that said, Ena comes out and everything is revealed. Ena apologizes but before getting back together she reveals Mizushima's (who has already left at this point) and MC's past and gives him the option between the two of them again. He runs after Mizushima and finds her on a beach blowing a whistle he gave her when they were younger (saying whenever she blew this he'd come save her). They have a heart to heart and right before solidifying their relationship Ena shows up regretting her decision to let MC leave to chase Mizushima. They go back and forth, neither wanting to give up on him until someone sees them and calls security.

They resume converstaions the next day after school; the girls start off by apologizing for treating the MC like a toy this whole time and tells him to choose. He can't so they do the next best thing, he can just date both of them. But this doesn't sit well with him so he asks them for more time. The story ends with them joining the same film club MC is a part of and introducing themselves as girlfriend candidates.

JFC man. It's a hypothetical scenario. A what if. That's what we're talking about here.
No. I don't know wtf you're talking about. But we're talking about the actual manga.

You basically said "if you take out all the shit, it's a decent manga". Which is an absolutely pointless and meaningless thing to say.

so on top of not only having a shitty story, the author decides to end the story with the shittiest way to end a manga/anime or anything of that matter. an open ending. and of course he decides to make the mc a wuss and trying to make him choose between the two people that made a game theory out of his feelings and using him as a test subject.

… They all sound terrible. I actually do want to see what happens, I rated ch1 a ”7”, I didn’t mind it as long as there is real story progression and characters become understandable, if not likeable. However unless the manga gets a real ending the train wreck you describe deserves a 5.5-6.
