Before I start talking about the manga, I'll clarify some things. I gave the story overall a score of 68/100, meaning that I don't exactly consider it a masterpiece. And second, though I felt I needed to write a review on this story, I was too embarassed to write it on my main account for reasons most reviewers with actual weeb friends might understand (and in case you don't have any or haven't read this yet, I'll write the reason down at the bottom in spoilers, but for now just understand that it's a bit embarassing).
Now as for the story itself, it's relatively straightforward. The protagonist is a hero who has saved the world along with his trusted companions (some friends + his sister) and now gets all lonely about how his friends are getting married. So he decides to go marriage hunting, except things never work out that easily. Due to his immense popularity, he has to cover up his true identity which turns out to be surprisingly easy given apparently no one knows his real name and only calls him as "The Hero" (which seems pretty dumb, but yea). And so begins his adventures of goes on dates...
I'll be honest here, most of the manga is genuinely entertaining once you manage to accept the rather cliche premise and tropes, and I would even say there were chapters and character(s?) I liked a lot to the extent that I would have probably rated it a lot higher if they were the ones who he got together with in the end. Of course, reality is often disappointing, and such is the case with this manga too- at least for me.

It's not to say the ending is entirely disappointing, I bet there are tons of weebs who like that kind of genre, and it's not like I'm inherently against it. There can be really good stories on that topic, like Gimai Seikatsu for instance. But this one just didn't feel right, it seemed both one-sided and rushed, even for a rather short manga.
(....end of spoilers....)
Because the manga can be quite well paced given each chapter length is pretty big. Honestly, the chapter 6-9 (nice) were probably the best in the series, but unfortunately led to nowhere, and combined with a rather unsatisfying ending lead to that rather low score on my part.
The art is gorgeous tho and I've tried to share it I'm not sure if the link works or not since I'm not used to sharing images during reviews tho.Anyways, here's my ratings for each section: story 5/10
Art 8/10
Characters- protagonist 6/10
Love interests 6.5 (only Katerina was a relatively interesting character)
Side characters/friends: 6.5-7/10
Overall, 6.8/10
Now for my rant
