I was fooled by the synopsis thinking that this might be a plot action focused story exploring one guide for a group of esper and poly relationships. But that's far from the case. It's just long chapters of sex more sex and sex with the plot and world building squeezed in between.
The most glaring problem for me is the MC. He's poorly written imo. What's his goal, his motivation, his means to achieve are wishy washy. He doesn’t show any ability apart from being able to guide(have sex) really well and high compatibility. Esper and guides ranking is only relevant so you can see class discrimination in the beginning for MC and his bro, the real ranking is MC group >>>>>> every other esper. And the worst part is there's a lot of talk and exposition. MC will say something to offend and rile people and then ask why they're treating him like crap and be shocked that these violent espers are violent and he intentionally provoked them. Most of the time, if he's not crying and scared during sex then he's being depressed and scared during dungeons and he'll still act like he has some ability to bargain with espers who can easily force him to guide and this doesn't improve. We're told that he'd been train to enter dungeons and find out in 4 chapters that he can't even do emergency guiding when they're in deep crack core at the boss battle or defend himself in combat. Honestly there's a lot more I can say about him but the tldr, he's lacklustre and have no qualities that would make you empathise or understand him unless you really care for your brother who has been shown as nothing but a deadweight.
A guide growing in a dungeon world don't know the basics of his abilities that's just bad world building. Most of the world building is shown through exposition, I'm sure the artist and author tried their best to convey their vision and themes but it feels shallow and missed for me. The story boarding and pacing is a mess that I sometimes think I missed a page or clicked on the wrong chapter. The artist gave a lot of explanations and thoughts in their creator notes on how to adapt that world but the themes they're talking about feels so far and missed in what I've actually read.
ML(s) are very stereotypical and not interesting or as deep as the author hints you into believing. Paired with this MC, i feel no chemistry or any pulling points to keep being invested in who he ends up with if that was even up in the air.
If you're interested in lots of sex, you should read it but don't expect it to give anymore than fast food surface dugeong raid.
