IMPORTANT EDIT: As of chapter 30, this has ended with a very obvious axe. There was a painful lack of direction in the last ~10 chapters or so. I guess the magazine editors ran out of patience. I retract the Recommended/6.5 score to NOT RECOMMENDED with a 5/10. Shame. This had potential. ORIGINAL REVIEW (written at around chapter 16): I'm surprised by the low score here.Sure, the MC is a deadly combo of being a total wimp + an unapologetic simp. That's like 80%+ of shounen (and quite often, seinen too), though. What matters is how the author approaches developing this pathetic shell of a character.

Believe it or not, halfway through its current 16 chapters, 'Peep' provides decent context and picks up. This is why I generally give a series at least 7-8 chapters before I rate it.

So, we have a domination/humiliation fetish traumatized MC, a childhood friend kind/pure FMC 1, and a manic-but-maybe-not-too-out-there FMC 2. Not a bad trio to conjure up some drama between. After a few initial chapters that were incoherent and made this look like a quasi-incel circus, things are falling into place. The art is also pretty darn good, the nose contouring is kinda cute.

I've seen people pile on this author for his other series. I haven't read his works - and judging by the synopsis (and length), I sure won't. However, I believe the low score of 'Peep' can partially be attributed to a) people carrying over their dissatisfaction with the author to this series and b) rating only the first few chapters.

Is it a great work? Nah, far from that. Considering its premise and the niche it occupies in the ecchi manga world, though, 'Peep' is a pretty decent 6.5/10 so far. I hope the author ramps up the psychological aspect.
