You can re-read this many times and wouldn’t get bored. I should know this because I’ve read this 4 times. Maybe my taste is bad, but this is definitely one of the good novel adaptations and a great harem manga
@BakedBanana Actually I believe there isn’t any different. The manga covers pretty much everything important in the novel, no more, no less, you’re not missing out on anything big if you don’t read the novel
it was pretty good, actually had kissing scenes and nudity (very little details though) and it was looking like it was gonna have a good ending, but
Jirou taking on Subaru's dream of being a butler made no sense, (she gave up on that dream to be able to date him freely as a girl and now that she doesn't have to hide the fact that she is a girl she can have a normal highschool life and make friends) and him proposing right after that also made little sense, the author just used that as an excuse to not have to actually do the scenes where he turns the other 2 down and for the sheer shock factor. But buy becoming a butler and the other 2 girls also becoming maids they can now all live in the same house again, which just felt like a cop out, i mean he had to choose one of the 3, which he did, but he still ended up with all of them in a way, happy ending i guess ? although i don't see how you could hire someone who rejected your love to be your butler and also the one he chose as your maid, you would be reminded every day of your misery and their happiness.
This dream of Subaru's to become a butler is proven to be even more idiotic when at the end she is hired as a maid instead, like what the fuck ? why couldn't she do that from the beginning ? because there would be no premise/point to the whole manga, that's why, which shows just how weak the foundation of the whole thing is. But i guess you can't look at this manga in such a serious way, just like any Marvel/DC hero's story falls apart if you think about it even a tiny bit. But it's hard for me to enjoy a story when the premise is so stupid or not properly explained.
The combat aspect of the story felt unnecessary, it's just part of the idiotic comic relief that japanese people or at least the authors think is funny, by abusing the male lead and they couldn't be more wrong, it just cheapens the story by taking itself less seriously and distracts the reader/viewer form the gaping flaws of the manga/anime.
PS the translation at least in the beginning is craptastic, i couldn't get past the first few pages, had to DL it from elsewhere, and even though it says it has the same exact translators the difference is night and day.
Also chapter 16 is actually chapter 15.5 and all the ones that follow are numbered wrong, there is no chapter 39, it's 38, it says it right in the manga.
Definitely a meh romance manga. Not all that interesting and is very trope heavy. The MC is as exciting as paint drying and the girls are 2 dimensional. You’re better off reading Quintessential Quintuplets...

If you're coming here from the Anime, and want to know where to continue, it's around Chapter 20. I believe that the last episode of the Anime coincides with Chapter 19 of the Manga.
I'm just going off of memory though, so I'd double check, but I distinctly remember the date with the glasses girl and thinking "Wait, this is the last episode? It feels like there should be some real conclusion to this." and Chapter 19 is the same date.
If it's been a while since you've watched the Anime, it may be worth re-reading everything to catch back up. That's what I did, because I couldn't remember all that much. Frankly, I'm glad Mangadex has this because I always did wonder what happened next.
