I initially liked the premise and thought this might be as interesting as some of the good guideverse stories where the plot is good enough to qualify as a shonen on its own and then when you add the yaoi bits, it's another positive.

Unfortunately, MC turns into a typical weak uke very fast and the supernatural/fantasy rlement is barely there. It feels like fantasy-baiting at that point....or more like plot-baiting because the plot is almost nonexistent
