In a World With a 1:7 Ratio, All I Wanted Was To Live Quietly
Shirogane Kaito died from overwork. Thirty something, corporate heir, alone on his office floor. No friends. No peace. Just work until his body gave out.
He wakes up nineteen in a world where men outnumber women one to seven — and every man acts insufferable about it. Women treated as objects. Arrogance as a personality. The whole social order built on a ratio nobody chose.
Kaito wants nothing to do with any of it. He already lived the exhausting life. He is not doing it again.
Using nothing but his business knowledge from his previous life he builds himself up from zero — labour, investing, trading — and within a year he is completely financially free. Buys a house. Fills it with manga. Takes a café job just because he likes it. Peaceful, quiet, finally on his own terms.
Then a homeless girl with purple hair has nowhere to go and he has a spare room.
And somehow after that his quiet life starts filling up — with a possessive older woman who knows his schedule better than he does, a campus girl who hated all men until she met him, a silver haired coworker always on his shift, a tall girl who just wants to be called cute, a shy girl nobody has ever really seen, and a neighbour with two daughters who has already quietly decided she is not letting him go.
He is not looking for any of this.
It finds him anyway.
