My Hundred Husbands and I

My Thoughts on My Hundred Husbands and I

Okay, "My Hundred Husbands and I"... Where do I even begin with this one? It's definitely an experience, that's for sure. A short, very short, and rather bewildering experience. This story defies easy categorization, and I'm still trying to figure out if I enjoyed the ride or just survived it.

First Impressions

My initial reaction, much like many others, was pure confusion. Jumping into this story is like being dropped into the middle of a bizarre play without any context. You’re immediately confronted with the premise of a character with a hundred husbands, and then... well, then things get even weirder. I found myself constantly questioning what was happening, and honestly, I'm not sure I ever got a solid answer.

What Works Well

Despite the confusion, there's a certain charm to the sheer absurdity of it all. If you're looking for something completely nonsensical that might elicit a chuckle, this might be it. The humor is definitely subjective; some will find it hilarious, while others will just scratch their heads. For me, the brevity worked in its favor. It's so short that you don't have much time to dwell on the lack of plot before it's over. I think it's worth the few minutes it takes to read just to experience the unique brand of weirdness on display.

Areas of Concern

The biggest issue, of course, is the lack of coherence. If you're expecting a well-developed plot, compelling characters, or even a basic understanding of what's going on, you'll likely be disappointed. The "harem" and "yaoi" tags feel somewhat misleading, as the story doesn't really delve into those aspects in any meaningful way. And while some might appreciate the fast-paced nature, I felt like it could have benefited from at least a little bit more explanation or world-building, even if it was still absurd. Also, the division of the single chapter into nine smaller parts feels a bit unnecessary.

Final Verdict

"My Hundred Husbands and I" is a strange beast. It's not good in a conventional sense, but it's also not entirely bad. It's a brief, confusing, and potentially funny bit of nonsense that might be worth checking out if you're in the mood for something completely different. Just don't expect it to make any sense. I'm giving it a tentative 3 out of 5 stars – mostly for the audacity to be so utterly bizarre.
