9 /10

MobuSeka, not an average romance isekai story. Minor spoilers included. Story 9/10 The series starts with a male protagonist, Leon, who gets reincarnated into an otome game. (a video game for females where they can have relationships with the opposite gender) He soon discovers that the world is messed up and that society functions with a caste system. To secure his safety, he ventures out on a small adventure to obtain an AI companion. (Luxion, a pay to win cheat item) Conflicts throughout the story are initiated by uncivil nobility who are obsessed with power and wealth. As a matter of fact, many choose to involve themselves inthe unfair treatment of others; of course, Leon joins forces with the AI for the sake of promoting justice and world peace.

Art 9/10
The illustrations in the first volume might have been a little crude. Otherwise, the visual appeal for this series is fantastic. Leon's intended mob type character works well with his given appearance; likewise, it complements his personality.

Character 8/10
Leon is a very interesting character. He does not care about how outsiders perceive him which gives him the audacity to reprimand those who usually can't be criticized. When it comes to the people he is close with, he is typically compassionate and perhaps sensitive to their opinions of him. He does not actively participate in creating a harem for himself. (respect) He has realistic expectations and tries not to get ahead of himself.
"An overpowered protagonist done right."

The individuals of his harem have their fair share of trouble. They have sweet personalities and most have good development.

Regarding the idiot side characters... maybe a change in perception maybe not
They contribute to the humor and side characters are not to be disregarded.

Enjoyment 10/10
This series is a thrill to read. The otome game setting has its arcs that are well introduced and not too fast-paced. The romantic development is nice, but so are the sweeping crises that arise volume after volume. When situations can not possibly get worse, they do. The attention to detail and events exceeded my expectations.

Overall 9/10
MobuSeka is a must-read for isekai enthusiasts. Don't worry about cliche, there are few. Happy reading!
