My Thoughts on Four Childhood Friends are NTR-ed by the Hero …. Huh, One of Them is Fine?
This title definitely grabbed my attention, and the premise promised a dark twist on the typical hero's journey. After diving in, I've come away with mixed feelings. "Four Childhood Friends are NTR-ed by the Hero …. Huh, One of Them is Fine?" is a rollercoaster of emotions, but whether it's a fun ride or a nauseating one depends on your preferences.
First Impressions
The initial chapters paint a bleak picture. We're introduced to a protagonist who is, frankly, pathetic. He suffers a lot of abuse and setbacks, which can be tough to stomach. The story sets up a classic revenge plot, but with a peculiar twist: the female lead seems to be the real driving force behind everything.
What Works Well
What I found particularly intriguing was the female lead, often referred to as the "fMC." Several readers have pointed out that she's unapologetically ruthless and determined. This subversion of expectations is refreshing. The story is at its strongest when it focuses on her machinations and cunning. I can see how some readers would find her actions hilarious, as the story takes a great take on the typical revenge hero’s journey.
Areas of Concern
However, the narrative seems to falter in other areas. The character development feels uneven. The male MC's constant struggles, while perhaps intended to build sympathy, can become tiresome. I also noticed that the Saint, a key figure, might not resonate with all readers. Some felt disconnected from her, finding it difficult to empathize with her motivations or feel invested in her fate. The ending, in particular, seems rushed and unsatisfying, with some feeling like the author ran out of ideas.

Final Verdict
"Four Childhood Friends are NTR-ed by the Hero …. Huh, One of Them is Fine?" is a mixed bag. The strong female lead and the potential for dark humor are definite draws. However, the uneven character development, potentially unlikeable characters, and a rushed ending hold it back. If you're looking for a subversion of the typical revenge story with a morally ambiguous female lead, this might be worth a try. Just be prepared for a potentially frustrating experience.
