I'm so glad most of the series is out! I didn't have high hopes for this, but I was so curious because I love Isekai! This book is so goofy, but I couldn't put it down!
Brad is such a goofball frat boy. I love him so much. I was worried I was going to be annoyed by him, but I wasn't at all. He's very self-aware and fun. Brad learning about the omegaverse as an omega is something I didn't know in needed in my life.
Raul was like a breath of fresh air when it comes to werewolf mates. I was very happy to see he wasn't one of those pushy and overly possessive alphas that seem to be so popular. He was patient and cared about how Brad would react to everything.
Brad and Raul are both muscular and masculine cis men, and that's not downplayed at all. Brad wasn't letting anyone push him into the "woman" role that you sometimes see when same sex couples are pushed into a stereotypical heterosexual relationship dynamic in some media.
My only issues are that Brad says bro often and the hint of biphobia. I hope it's part of Brad's character arc that he learns later that being bi is a thing. Also, I hope there's some more diversity later one. Right now, I believe everyone is white and cis.
