I just wanted to see them suffer a little… but somehow, they turned into yanderes…

I, who love to see magical girls in despair, reincarnated into the world of my favorite magical girl anime as a mob character named Sota Hayami.

One day, after watching the magical girls fight as usual, I was touring a holy site known for corruption when, for some reason, I awakened a demon god that had been sleeping there.

For some reason, the demon god seemed to take a liking to me. I merged with the demon god, gained overwhelming power, and took on the mysterious persona of Omega. I kept watching the girls from up close, enjoying their dire situations, and then saving them at the last moment. Before I knew it, they had all turned into yanderes.

The novel has an interesting setting that I like minus the harem tag. The romance so far has been likable. The girls itself are flushed out and I really liked Luna’s arc and dynamic with the MC.... more>>

What I do find weird is how it was stated they were friends but then suddenly their relationship changed to and dog and owner after MC’s alter ego Omega saved Luna from her depression but I guess it’s whatever.

So far in the novel the only girl in the MC’s harem to be almost complete right now as of chapter 49 is Luna, and currently from the machine translation we’re also starting to see Christina’s and Noah’s arcs coming up which I am guessing from how they interact with Souta.

The MC is more mature about the situations he is given and the conversations he has, he isn’t some beta or complete a**hole, he’s actually level headed and more calm with the advice he gives to Luna and the other girls. I do think that his actions contradict his mentality of “wanting to see the gloom in the magical girls” which is also a little sadistic and the trope of being a mob character and asking why he is having “rom-com” moments can be annoying. Although some parts are cringey it’s to note the rom com parts are short but sweet. Besides that I think the MC is great for the story as his actions greatly affect the magical girls way of thinking and how the story progresses.

He is a little too overpowered for the novel and his powers are almost mostly unexplained. Though the combat portion of the story is thrilling enough to read and it is decent.

Now the setting is what caught me with this story. I do like cliches such as being reincarnated as a mob character and secretly saving everyone, I do find that cool, but instead of focusing heavily on one portion, either the secret identity or the mob identity, this story balances it out while having a lot of interactions. This story does do a good job of not telling but showing with the dialogue although I think that the side cast apart from Souta and the magical girls is just Seita, whose just a playboy and is scared of Noah I think. He has yet to get any development and neither has any characters outside the main cast. If you’re willing to give this a read without minding the cliches and tropes its a great read from the prologue to chapter 49. <<less

The premise of the novel is interesting, but the execution is lacking. The pacing feels too slow and too fast at the same time. One example is how the magical girls were all introduced at the same time, but only Luna has had any significant development. Another example, at the time of writing this, we've been on the same fight scene for 5+ chapters now and which has felt excruciating, but at the same time, random plot points ... more>>

like the second generation of magical girls

are just thrown in without proper build up. The author seems to just be throwing ideas at a wall and trying to see what sticks.

Doesn't help that there's another yandere-harem-magical girl webnovel out there, that started around the same time as this one, and is being updated at around the same pace that does this whole premise way better.

Also the translation is pretty bad. I usually put the entire thing through ChatGPT first and ask it to make the sentences more coherent before I start reading a chapter. <<less
