The more I look back on this level the more it reminds me of watching "Rent-a-Girlfriend" for the first time. Kazuya as a main character is supposed to be sympathized over which while initially I got it as he acts like how some people act irl with relationships. With that being said, Kazuya doesn't improve as a character and continuously acts like a simp sniveling roach that just makes the girls that surround him worse but also make the anime as a whole worse.

I relate "Rent-a-Girlfriend" to this because negative mindsets like these happen quite a bit to people in game, sometimes that makes it hard to find enjoyment in levels like these as they're a reality to some. WHYME comes off weirdly preachy at times due to the fact that TMN in this scenario makes some of the insults thrown at him that are shown in the level (as well as the thoughts that surround him due to the everchanging nature of the game) have a weirdly comical response when the level is clearly trying to be serious. I don't think this level has aged as well as I thought but I don't think it's as bad as some people make it out to be. This mindset is unhealthy though and the level shows why.

Pocke's yt review is also a really good explanation on why some people may not like this level you should check it out
