I'm sorry, but I gotta drop this manhwa... (T_T) I love the MC's personality and how the story has been progressing so far (I've read up to chapter 27) but I hate how sexualized the women are. It feels like a typical isekai harem trope except that the MC doesn't seem sexually/romantically interested in them. Compared to the men's designs and personalities, nearly all of the women have a combo of large chests/high leg slits/tight clothing. There's also been a pattern of the women having similarly haughty personalities, only to get humbled by the male protag so they end up worshipping him. It's very obvious fan service for the male gaze which contributes nothing to the plot and it's a shame bc I genuinely love the MC.
I also wanna mention that I don't expect female characters to be dressed from head to toe for modesty. I don't consider large chests to always be considered sexualized, it depends on the context as to why the artist decided to design them with a large chest. I just wish badass women could be portrayed in a cool way like how men are instead of designed for the male gaze. :'(
