I have no idea who the guy on the last page is but every time I see him I have a good laugh

The TL on this is off because he'd have to avoid phrases that come from political ideologies that don't exist in their world. Feminism and political correctness do not exist in that world, since there are no men and they die at 20 - any real meta politics is a waste of precious time when you die so early. So to say "sexist thinking", they'd just reply "huh, what's that?" Etc.

@CrimsonSix is exactly right on this. Since he is the only man, gender duties effectively reverse in this world. Its the women's duty to ensure the only man known is kept alive and as such, as they said, should have a heavy armed guard and should be wearing heavy armor. He should not be fighting unless as a last resort. But manga logic right.

@Opticalwinter @CrimsonSix The problem with this kind of fiction is that there are as many views as people, and the Author can't possibly cover them all.

Personally, I agree. He can't save every single female in the world, but by having sex with 2-3 different ones each day, he'd soon save the whole city AND start repopulating. And maybe the babies are not cursed?
Putting himself in harms way is 120% moronic.

But let's think about the other options for a bit.
Misaki already tried to kill him. Let's suppose all 3 of us agree that was absolutely moronic, and maybe even "unrealistic". Except we know Karens exist. "Unrealistic" is a VERY loose term. A random psycho woman might kill him too.
Then, as single purveyor of mating, some poweful women (Queen?) may decide to "keep him safe"...by locking him in the castle. What do we do with pandas? Again, personally I don't think a life of being fed and sexed is all that bad, but jokes aside, I'm sure there are guys out there who'd want more out of life.
Plus, reallistically, how many times can we really go? 5 a day absolute tops? We're not porn actors. 2 hours? That's a lot of day left at the end of the sex.
Give a further twirl. Some powerful chick decides 5 a day is not enough. Maybe they can drug him to increase his stamina. And if he refuses, well...maybe he doesn't have the right to refuse. After all, the fate of humanity depends on him.
Or maybe, seeing how the chicks go fuck-crazy, some women decide just one time to free the curse, and no more sex ever, is not enough. Maybe they kidnap him and lock him in a basement to keep him for themselves.

Y'know, I think that (^) is then kind of "discussion" or "inner monologue" that sometimes should apear in a WN/manga, but that I feel would bore 95% of the readers.
Point is, I'm sure there are even more possibilities than the ones I just came up with, all bad and dangerous in some way. So author picks the one that can get the story rolling, and tries to give a reason (and fails at it cause this author isn't exactly amazing).

This black-haired girl (was her name Momo?) kind of resembles Nino from 5toubun (aka "Quintessential quintuplets").
Although I expected to see wet girls, I didn't expect them to be wet from tears. Pretty emotional chapter. And a nice last page (googling "never leave your partner behind" gives "Fireproof movie preview" and "christian videos" - anybody knows if it's a reference of some sort?).

Ey whats up with @Historybuff6969

 

[iskelets8]

I weep for the girls and youta's farewell, and this comment section

 

[chzko]

Thanks Shinzo Abe-san, very cool

 

[Spooder9]

onwards, to some batshit plots due to me rereading this cause i forgot shit.

 

[SuplexSensei]

I kinda get it now, how a lot of the comments talk about Misaki being best girl.

Despite the initial mindbreak, she's still the stern-yet-caring leader of the Quintets. She even gave up her chance of travelling with Youta just for the OG duo to journey together (yeah, and she just cares for Lumi way too much).

This is literally the end of the starting kingdom arc. What's gonna happen after this?

p.s. a lotta hot-takes on this comment section, I see

 

[KingofMemes69]

…why is Youta going off by himself? He’s literally like the most important person in the entire world currently, what happens if he just randomly dies?

“My duty as a man to protect the girls” dude you’re literally one fucking guy, what the hell are you talking about. It should be the other way around, the girls should’ve sent a whole fucking army to protect him, why are they letting the only man to have ever exist in over 3000 years go off on his own????

 

[Dwander1219]

On MAL there is a review that calls this a great piece of feminist literature, and that is the hardest I've ever been trolled.

Seriously, this manga is the most objectifying garbage of all time, much worse than most actual porn. It casts out modern views of gender for a centuries outdated view.

Only took you 25 chapters you boney-eared assfish
