it's amazing. Great slice of life story with action and a hint of mystery. The character development of megumi with his trauma and the quintuplets in this new situation is splendidly done. The interactions between characters is also amazing and feels completely realistic when accounting for their personalities. The worlds were easy to merge so no issues there either. The author claims that this is his/her first story but i don't believe it at all tbh, the story is way too good for a first story T-T. the chapters are also very long which is always welcome. I truly have nothing to complain about in this story, i've been reading a lot of fanfics of different qualities and this story must be in the top. I dont doubt that the author will make something amazing of it, so try it out. Thanks for making this fanfic and gl with writing author!!!
First off, I just started reading this particular story because of Megumi. Of course, I am familiar with the Quintuplets, but I am not a fan of rom-coms. However, this is very well executed, the premise of Megumi someone who is traumatized and depressed, helping five different girls. The themes are pretty clear. obviously romance, family, and fear/anxiety. That's my synopsis or summary. Some minor criticism from me, it's pretty noticeable that the lack of a large cast of characters is harmful. Because as soon as a scene involving the siblings starts or ends, it's easy to tell what is going to happen. Though you gave them more depth. Also, the aspect of JJK is very small so far and currently not relevant, considering the circumstances. However, I do hope it will be involved more in the future. What I think is very well executed, is the drama. It is rather easy to get immersed in. That's mostly because of the character interactions and dialogues. Everyone acts in a way that fits their character (else it would be probably harder to integrate Bumgumi), which makes the character arcs more compelling and understandable. Another strong quality is the length and release of the chapters. Until now, new chapters come after 1 or 2 days, and as already said they are pretty long (I estimate ~2000 words per chapter, take it with a grain of salt, tho). The overall writing is very satisfying, not the usual forced sophisticated style or over-descriptions and straight to the point, but not necessarily dumbed down. It's pretty familiar and approachable. I would like to see in which other directions the author can go after this fanfiction and am still very thrilled for more.
I'm genuinely enjoying this story so far. The characters are done great. Keep it up!
This fic is so good that it became my reason to live. Keep your health up author, we want to see you stay in the kitchen so you can keep cooking!
The old version was good, but the rewrite is miles better, in terms of writing quality, character development, pacing and pretty much everything. The only thing worse is the upload schedule but I much rather you taking the time to put real effort into the fic, this is really good quality❤️
The premise looked weird at first and I wasn't expecting much. But this is genuinely good. The crossover in natural, characters are on point and grammar is flawless.
It’d be a crime at this point to not give this a 5/5, I was expecting some goofy little character insert, what I received was peak character development and something that feels real
I've been looking for a good bumgumi fanfic and I found the best one but honestly the story is really good. like maybe I have a low threshold for good stories but overall the story is great. the pacing's good. the characters are awesome! I love how you address his trauma. oh it's so good. the characters are interesting but now you've me like all of them now I'm forcing you author, you must make this harem otherwise you're going to break my heart
If you want something a little slow and soft but full of sugar, I recommend this story, not only does it have action and it has moments of purification for the soul, extremely recommended. Note: He has long monologues, although not very often.
Man, I had forgotten about this peak and just remembered and checked up on it, thank goodness its not dropped, just rewritten, plz don't drop it like how Slayerking1 dropped Trials of the Multiverse , continue writing, peak.
Of all the fanfics I saw about the quintuplets, this is undoubtedly the best, Megumi's trauma has a lot of logic, the interactions between the characters are fluid and entertaining, the only thing I would require is that in the end Megumi stays with the five sisters
Nothing much just wanted to make the ratings orignal cuz a fool decided to rate it low without understanding the authors problems
The story is very good and well constructed, and something I really appreciate is the interactions between the characters. The fights are good, even though they are not the focus, but for me, the main point is the way he writes Megumi. Megumi actually feels like a real person here, with traumas to overcome and internal struggles. I'm bothered by the way some authors write characters with a similar personality to Megumi as super cold edgelords who don't show emotions, but that doesn't happen here and that's one of the reasons I appreciate this story.
Fast updates, interesting plot, no rushed character development or forcing things, and this story flows smoothly overall very enjoyable. Bonus because the chapter are a decent length
This novel is simply incredible, it has beautiful world-building, lively dialogue and good development, I hope the author doesn't drop the story.
very good story, it has much more content than I expected, I hope it continues like this (I hope you finish it)👍
I have to say with what I read this is story is pretty good even if it's that BUM, BUMGUMI RAAAAAAAHHH! The fight scenes could use some work but it's ok and I haven't even caught up to the latest chap yet. But author bruzzah, how about you consider this this devious idea of mine. HAREM! All the Nakano girls fall in love with him BUT WAIT! THERE'S MORE! YOU KILL HIM OFFSCREEN STYLE IN THE END! HAHAHAHAHA!
