I did too.
But now, along with what you just mentioned, it is also a lot of gratuitous male gaze crap.
I knew what to expect based on this mangaka's prior work, but last thirty or so chapters have just been boob this, boob that: boob boob boob.
I get it. I know what the story is about. But that doesn't mean you have to put boob stuff that is unrelated to the story in every f*cking chapter! It's almost like he is crafting this overly complex story and the more complex it is, the more he feels the need to add boobs and naked women, so that his readers will "stay for oppai".
Plus, all the male gaze homoerotic crap. I'd say queer bait if it weren't so brazenly obvious for being male fantasy crap.
Actually I am quite liking the story at the beginning. But the conflict is just so complex without any break in certain chapters, too many arc and side characters that I don't really remembered the name :/
