This story start off really well!! I love how the MC is easy going and kind of nonchalant:

"The previous Aine would definitely participate in the talk to stir up disturbance, however my Japanese soul with a peaceful mind that knows not to disrupt the winds, decided to just shut up and eat my breakfast. This bread is really delicious... "

This is pretty much just smut. If your here for BL s*x, especially threesomes then go ahead. There is story, but don't expect it to be good. The MC is pretty much a Mary sue, now that wouldn't be too bad, Ive read an amount of amazing books with Mary sue MC's, but this MC is pretty much an idiot, not even a lovable one, they try to pass him off as cutely naive and that is too nice. But nooooo, he's just an idiot that the author tries to... more>> pass off as naive but wise. Self sacrificing gentle uke. But honestly, he's not any of those, he's just an f*king idiot that has his idiocy passed off as positive, when it's a s*upidly negative aspect. There's a fair share of naive and s*upid MC's that I love, but I honestly cannot deal with this MC.

Slight spoilers (?) not much
Spoiler

It's always forgiveness, forgiveness.

he doesn't even realise his so called forgiveness is a s*upid choice to make, he places the blame on himself, yeah that sounds self sacrificing, But his self sacrificed by blaming for his own r*pe, like, seriously, r*pe. ARE YOU KIDDING MEEEEEE.

Anyways, it's not the worst thing in the world, there are many BL's like this out there, with the whole, It's not r*pe if it feels good thing.

Honestly at one point, when he was r*ped, the author properly pointed out that it was a bad thing but then it just went back full circle and apparently, all the same sh*t that happened after it wasn't the same, WHEN IT WAS EXACTLY THE SAME.

[collapse]
Ok, I'm waffling now, but this really just pisses me off. This is why I don't read BL or any smut in general that romanticizes or deals with r*pe lightly.

Just for the s*xual stuff? Sure why not? But everything else, despite having potential, was terrible. It was just terrible. And it wasn't even just about the r*pe, It was the MC's reaction to it.

Well, most of Okyubou Desu's Novels are like this though, if you like the other books by Okyubou, then you'll like this too. <<less

I have not written that many reviews so have mercy T^T, also this novel was so good I just had to write a review! I finished the whole thing and I really enjoyed the story. If your looking for a good yaoi read then I definitely recommend it, it is one of the best I have read so far. As far as the story pacing goes I would say it is pretty good, it is not too slow nor too fast and the characters are also interesting in their own... more>> rights. Although the main character is a bit cliche in a sense that he is very dense when it comes to love he is still a very enjoyable character and you do not get tired of his interactions with the love interests. The story in itself does not have a very complex plot and is very lighthearted, easy and a entertaining read if you give it a chance. So if you are looking for a quick yaoi novel to read this is definitely one of the best ones out there. The only thing I did not like about this one is that the author never completed it so it stopped at chapter 21 but in a sense the novel still felt completed after chapter 21 so do not let that fact deter you from deciding to try out this novel.
Spoiler

also be warned this novel contains threesomes so if you are not a big fan of that you may not enjoy it, but in my opinion I believe you should still give it a chance, also towards the beginning it may not seem like it will contain that much smut but it definitely will towards the later chapters. The Seme Reichel may seem a little unlikable at first but he definitely changes.

Disappointing. I was expecting a good yaoi novel with engaging novel with entering characters but I ended up really disappointed. Especially about the MC. He'd spent years working in a farm and yet he almost got r*ped and was pyshically so weak he couldn't even fight off his attacker and he's such a pushover it irritated me to no end.

And what creeped me out was that in the early chapters he was still noticeably a man but in the late chapters he sounded so much like a woman I have... more>> to stop myself from reading just to look at the tags again to make sure that I'm still reading BL.

This novel is such a waste of time. <<less

It's truly rare that I read a yaoi novel, or at least I think it's yaoi. It's really funny, random and is like this soft toy teddy bear that just looks so cute u want to take it home and hug it forever! This novel is just like that! It's interesting and definitely recommend it! Kudos to the translator for picking it up and the author for an amazing novel.

So far, the bits that shows a sad family life pained me but the ones with MC being happy with his life soothes that pain. Recommended for those who like equal amounts of pain and fluffiness.

I want to laugh and cry at the same time. What did I just read? This felt like one of those "classic" yaoi mangas from back in 2009 when you're a young, naive thing and think that this is how romance normally works. Ah, I felt my brain cells slip away with this novel. Now all that's left is for me to hang a poster of Pete Wentz on my wall and play MCR in the background and we've truly returned back to when these kinds of stories were the... more>> only thing you could find on manga sites.

Sorry, I needed to vent a bit after reading this. Ok! This story, if you haven't guessed yet, is what you DON'T want to write when going for a love story. This is your average white lotus MC who is so f*cking naive I wanted to choke. Your two MLs are the big bro and little bro and boy are they your classic MLs. Also this is all in first person narrative, so, welcome to a 13 year old's writing style. Not harping on the translator because they are the reason this novel got at least two stars from me, but man, am I SALTY.

I would only recommend this to someone who truly wants to relive bad written yaoi manga circa 2009 and before. Otherwise, keep your brain cells and move along, this ain't worth the cheap smut you undeniably came here for. <<less

If this was an manga, I think I would have liked it more.

The situation are unbelievable. The story is very stiff. It doesn't flow very well. It really doesn't explain anything. Feelings are not conveyed very well. I wish it was more detailed. I guess very typically japanese.

Translation is good.

... more>> What would have been nice if there was more details on everything. The author wanted a serene atmosphere so I wish she could of mentioned the warm sun, basking in the cool wind with my toes in the fluffy grass.

But what she wrote was, I built a dog house. I went fishing because I'm japanese and I like fish.

Like I said if it was an anime or manga it would be better than a novel.

Sorry and thanks. This is just my opinion. <<less

Read this more as BL smut, and you won't be disappointed. Don't expect serious plot or characterizations, but the s*x scenes are pretty amazing.

It's thanks to this, that I reached the tipping point of having to register and leave behind a review because it truly is so damn bad, so god damning, mind-numbingly awful, I didn't think I'd have so much resentment towards JP written BL to the point of choking blood!

I don't understand why some people bothered to give it a 5 star rating, though I bet it's because of the smut. Now, smut isn't anything bad (depends on how it's written and visualized) and I did liked the smut... more>> in this story. But what really grinds my gears is that the writer is trying too damn much to reinforce the plot that, obviously, was kicked, beaten and abused to death in the very early chapters and forward on! I can see how the plot would have been pretty good if they had written it correctly and took the time to flesh out the characters, setting and plotline themselves. Oh... Oh oh but no, that didn't happen and I don't have any hope for it.

And as a novel that promotes farm life and apparently life with pets alongside dog food, I expected more information about it! I expected to be meng-ed, moe-ed to death and gain life points. At the very least, don't just suddenly time skip and not show us how Aine progressed in life while traveling to the countryside, living in the countryside and showing his previous life's expertise as a farmer.
Spoiler

Which apparently, he seemed to have forgotten and had to depend on Crash to relearn even the basics... This is what a young Japanese man, who I presume is old enough to pay taxes and drink shochu, is supposed to be like?

[collapse]

Another thing! The brothers, the king, the assistant, and literally everybody else! They. Are. So. Idiotic! They couldn't even be more idiotic and surprisingly, they were at least smarter than the main character, who supposedly came from the modern ages!
Spoiler

Yuan; Immature, h**ny, naive, tagged a yandere but really he's just a big baby without his bib, rapist, no self-control, you wonder why he even became general in the first place and temperamental. Literally all over the place! It's sad, it makes me sad, even more when he could have the potential of being a really good yandere. But no. He's just a big baby, a big baby you can legally imprison and I hope he does! Leichel; So far, he's a great guy. Why yes, he is protrayed as and is a cruel, strict, demeaning and otherwise tyrannical at some parts person but believe me when I say I saw the Lord God himself whenever he appeared. He's the light in this otherwise pit of boiled frogs. You'll really love and cherish him, I can see that he too, would become silly later on, and that is tragic. Everyone, please cherish this man. He's the only sane person in this demented world. King; Absolute crack headed man-child, good-for-nothing father, why is he even here, might as well be a wallflower, bet he's going to have immoral intentions, probably my second favorite to Leichel if he had just stayed quiet and not unlock the emo child title. Carl; Loved him in the beginning, still loving him, melon eating assistant, I hope he still has his braincells. Crash; I want him to be Aine's father figure but he might turn too s*upid, good thing he isn't always around Aine, really should do his job better as a shadow guard but since Aine is a big brainholed idiot I say he is very capable, and knows he is just dealing with a mary sue backwards moral person who acts like a damn saint with the excuse of being asian.

[collapse]

In conclusion, this whole thing has plotholes, dialogue and storyline you can just skim through and still understand what's going on, characters with air-filled heads, doesn't even matter that this is in*est (They aren't exactly brothers, but cousins, but that is still in*est) . Smut, the only good point.

Did I read through it all? Of course not, I just stopped the moment the King 'revealed' things here, things there and ended the book on a good note. Crash, Carl and Leichel still being the only sane persons and that is all I want. Would I read it through--- No. Have you seen the people who rated this five stars? I don't want to be that. Am I insulting their IQ? Yes, no, it's up to your interpretation. <<less

Err... I cl**ked the wrong amount of stars... How do I change it to 1 star? Help... (No worries, I figured it out...)

Anyway, it's not the worst, but I've seen way better. Also,
Spoiler

I'm still wondering how the first and second prince got along. How can one can be yandere and another so possessive but not mind sharing the MC with each other? Like what?

[collapse]

The MC also cries too much and blames everything on himself (this isn't a spoiler right?), it's annoying.

This book is not the book that make me want to read it many time. Despite the happy ending of threesome many part were poorly explained and some part is not logic. What the hell with the cat nodded its head to said goobye or answered the prince question. That a human action for god sake. Unless the cat had had been possesed by some random soul. And if you like the strong MC character you definitely do not like this story. And if you hate in*est, just leave. Yes,... more>> one father and one mother. The MC was a passive one and let everything bad or good happened to him and the kind of angel who had a halo on his head. He was so ordinary I might think he was a cannon fodder. Let just leave the male lead aside because I dont even know how to explained their-suddenly had-a-feeling-of-their-brother. <<less

Very fast read. Lots of smut.

There are a few things I still don't understand, like the oldest bro complete personality change which happened without warning (I'd swear he turned into a different person). The MC is fairly stereotypical: small, dense, without much self-confidence, overly kind and unable to say no (typical shoujo heroine, which is just sad, since he's a guy).

For what it is, its ok.

I would give this story a 4.5 but I gave it a 5 to bump it up since it has a lot of 1 star reviews.

This is probably a very well done, if not one of the best "quick" yaoi smut fest. It's not a story with too much drama or plot twist, it's quite straight forward for yaoi genre. Transmigrate into an uke body and charm all the seme, the seme are possessive and forceful when it comes to s*x but overall love and treasure the uke, the uke... more>> is passive in bed etc etc. For a yaoi smut and fluff story, it's good. But if you expect more you will be disappointed. If you expect exactly fast yaoi and simple story with cute characters, then this is perfect. I would give this story a 4.0 because I think more can be done to improve it, maybe some more description or more cute interaction scene between the brothers. But the good thing about this story is that it doesn't drag on. The bump up to 4.5 is because the translator quality is all very good, it's clean and simple. The translator notes (which are in white so you highlight with your mouse to read) is also funny and I like that it's white so you don't see it if you don't want to. <<less

Thanks for the translators.

I seldom see smut BL with a good plot. There is no novel without flaws. But since it is a self indulgent smut BL novel, the plot is at minimum and the focused more on the H scenes (latter part). Hence, it is a good read

Good plot material in the beginning and middle parts, great fap material towards the ending.

Story: An entertaining and light-hearted short read, with very little fluff material, and a well planned out, simple, yet not juvenile plot.

Characters: Multiple POVs, when done correctly, can be an amazing literary device and significantly boosts the entertainment value of a novel, rather than a monotonous 1st person perspective or an unimmersive 3rd person perspective, as observed in Game of thrones, which is exactly what we get here.

Not only do they augment the novel, but... more>> also, add a depth to the characters, all of whom, are likeable. Despite them falling into cookie-cutter tropes, one cannot help but like them. I am glad that the "modern world knowledge" is not stretched too much (unlike what RTW did) .

Tl;dr: Worth a read assuming you love yaoi and are 18+ <<less

I don't know why I expected it to be better..

MC is s*upid and naive. It's so infuriating. I stopped reading when he tried to apologize to the little brother when he was the one who got r*ped. Speaking of, he's so indifferent to it? Like this wasn't the first time and he still hung out with his little brother? Like, have some rationality. It's obvious the people in this novel are impartial to in*est but when your brother forces himself on you, shouldn't there be a moment of clarity? Shouldn't... more>> you stop it, even if he's doing it unconsciously? MC also brushes off this behavior as "Oh he's asleep and he's mistaking me as a girl, it's not his fault"... what the f*ck? That's.. how does someone's logic go there?

I don't like the older brother either but at least he's rational, discouraging MC from apologizing to the little brother because he's the victim, but its still so.. ugh.

Also, another thing I hate about this, why is MC so weak? Not only did he spend 2+ years working on a farm, doing manual labor, but it was also said in the early chapters that he is average regarding military affairs.. even if he's average shouldn't he still have some muscle? And even if his muscle mass declined from working on a farm, he should still have a lean build. I hate how he can barely defend himself.

s*upid self-sacrificing MCs like this should be purged! Whatever the author was smoking when they wrote this, should be made illegal worldwide. <<less

It's one of those, If it was a manga I'll have liked it more, type of story.

The story plot is honestly not great, it is probably more a smut focused than plot (even though "plot" is pretty long, like more than half).

Naive/Holy-mother-type MC x Yandere in*est Harem

The Kingdom is doomed.

... more>>
Spoiler

I also hated how there was the almost-r*pe victim MC blaming themselves for their brother trying to r*pe him and trying to apologise to said brother.

Also what's with the illogical love of the family that the original MC hated (before memories), you don't suddenly love "family" that you were fighting just because you get memories of a peaceful life! At most it's indifference with the amount of interaction between the family (almost none).

And the plot holes! So many plot holes! So much that by planting carrots in each hole, you'll have enough to feed the kingdom for 3 years! (Okay, I'm exaggerating, probably only a year)

This is actually a good read and it's very short so I finished this in one go. The plot wasn't that rich but I liked the smut and the character's possessiveness! With the unexpected 3p at the end, I can't help but rate it 5 stars since I'm a sucker for 3p~ Moreover, the different POV is something I hadn't encountered in a while so I definitely find that refreshing.
