>whose parents are away.
I don't know why but this part is what kills me
MC is a self insert
Read Teppu. It has a very interesting overdog protagonist.
I will say that Satou from welcome to the NHK should have been another shitty clone of that character but wasn't done pretty well in my opinion as he actually had some personality and it showed the actual reality of what happens to a character like that . Well I mean there was a convenient enough love story shoe horned in there but it made sense in the context of the story at large so it was forgiveable.

>parents are away
And the reason is always a business trip, or they're just traveling together emphasis on them being overseas.
It's just to simplify the cast. And yet, school shows that have the parents in them are often times a lot more interesting and realistic, since they put a cap on retard logic and add more plot dynamic.
Instead of the MC being a depressed loner introvert who gets to meander through life because his parents aren't there, why isn't Japan making one that's actually realistic: The MC is a normal boy who becomes a depressed loner introvert because society is shit and his parents, while loving, are basically strangers who are busy with their regular jobs and interests?
MC being a massive loser with no confidence is fine, it becomes a problem when his evolution to Chad Mc. Dick happens in two chapters and the author spends the rest of the time throwing hot women and success at him and sucking him off.
The problem with overpowered MC is when he is combined with a story structure that tries to do the chalenge->power up->challenge loop because the loop is meaningless because there is no challenge.
