Really like the game, a lot of content so far. When I saw I was playing version 0.40 of a game I immediately felt bad because I thought it would be like 20 minutes of playtime but was left impressed at both the length and writing quality.

That being said, I have like 2 gripes with the content so far. Feel free to ignore them, I'm not a writer or anything, but this is just what I felt (sorry if I sound a bit harsh especially at the end, I don't really know how to rephrase that part of the review in a more polite manner without losing some of the meaning).

First (and least important), lack of blood during defloration, as someone else below also said just diminishes the momentous impact the "first time" is supposed to have. Author said they personally don't like it though, so it's fine. (perhaps a "blood" toggle?), it's not THAT big of a deal.

Secondly, I see there are some advertised tags such as "objectification", "impact play", "free use", "BDSM" etc. Those are not really present in the game (CERTAINLY not any amount of BDSM by any stretch), the only type of sex that happens in this game is vanilla. The game felt to me like it was overwhelmingly safe and vanilla at every single point, and every time I thought it would deviate from that even a little bit and allow (at least through a choice) a different route, like an omnipresent force the plot is inevitably pulled back down to just pure, viscous saccharine vanilla. Every time sex happens, it is exclusively vanilla, and consent is always voiced articulated and extremely clear every single time. In fact, when sex actually happens it's often the girls who initiate it. In my opinion, this is the one thing that drags the story down quite a bit. 

A lot of situations clearly are made to feel like they are going to go a certain way, but then they inevitably resolve in a safe, PG-13 way, and the mc only actually has sex with the girl 5 chapters later after 20 dates and exchanged messages, and usually after the girl initiates and asks to have sex, so the initial situations almost feel like bait. 

Couple of examples I can think of, off the top of my head (spoilers below): Mc pinning Suzu in his room then just letting her go, her then LITERALLY asking him to sleep with her and mc doesn't make a move at all (??? is he just gay), Jun in MC room (no comment, she was literally wetting herself for him and mc didn't do anything, they still haven't had sex btw).

The most glaring example though (and the one that made me write this review) is Ookami on the roof. Once again you have MC overpower and pin down a girl, she clearly expects him to take her there because of the pack rules or whatever, even invites him to do it ('...so what are you going to do?"), the ENTIRE scene as well as previous encounters with her seem to lead up to this, then MC just lets her get up and tells her to stay safe.... That was just unbelievably ridiculous, disappointing and just looked like a massive bait and switch. MC and Ookami eventually just end up going on dates, he takes her to dinner etc. which is what he literally does with almost every other girl as well, squandering all the build-up and uniqueness of her situation and their relationship until then, as they might as well at that point just be two regular people who met up on tinder and started dating.

Also, the hotel thing and the increasing number of characters make the plot a bit hard to follow by the last chapter, and it feels like MC is constantly interrupted mid-sex with a girl/pair of girls by another pair of girls, who he then goes on to have sex with but then gets interrupted by another group of girls who he then goes on to have sex with but...etc.

THAT being said though, the game is otherwise good, and since for my favorite girl's (Miko) storyline, purely saccharine, simple vanilla actually happens to fit well enough, I'm not actually that pressed, and will be looking forward to the next update. I just wish different routes would have been taken for the storylines where that would make more sense.

Honestly, if you are getting the proper read on the MC, he would never force himself on any woman, for a number of reasons (completely discounting the fact that he obviously doesn't have to) primarily because he is a good person. The kind of "play" you're referring to isn't done with strangers. Consenting adults that know and trust each other can do such things, but for near-strangers, the line is NOT fine between consent and SA, and that is something this story has expressly avoided. The other thing you have to remember is that the MC is a cop-- however much he's bent the law to help his growing family, he is definitely not going to go that direction unless he is absolutely certain that is what his partner wants. This is as it should be, if we're talking about this MC. Kink and outright SA are two different things. The "objectification" kink was actually discussed with a myth he was introduced to in the storyline (clearly, something planned in a future chapter). We haven't seen much BDSM, but the story is still growing, and several actors are very plainly still waiting for introduction.
The MC is a decent person, so I rather doubt you'll see any sex that isn't explicitly consensual in the story. Cuckoldry has also been ruled out, which means that no matter how vile the villains, we also don't have to worry about our lovely ladies being violated like that, either. As far as I can tell, it's simply not that kind of story... and from what I've read, it never will be. I'm pretty sure everyone's ok with that, too. I hope that clears up a bit of your confusion. I'm not the author, but I have played through the story so far enough times to know that the MC isn't gay, but he IS chivalrous... and that means knowing when NOT to pillage, when not to push, when to listen,and how to be patient.
This story has depth, and is actually amazing. There is a LOT of build up for some of the characters (you specifically mentioned Jun) but if I remember correctly, there was also a warning in the introduction that this story was a "slow-burn", and if you were looking for otherwise, you might be disappointed... that's a perfect example. Again, I hope this clears up some of your confusion on the choices the author of this wonderful story has made. Cheers!
