Cookie Cutter Story?

[Deleted member 165068]

So I've found a weird trend with my story. I haven't written much for my story (only 14 chapters) and I am trying to figure out how, or why, people like the first five chapters yet have little interest in the rest of the story before I continue anything. I think it's because it's definitely cookie cutter, but I am not 100% sure, so I would like some feedback. I should warn it's M rated Isekai/harem, and probably a little jarring writing wise because I have mainly written academic style stuff in the past instead of actual creative writing works.

Here Goes...

Being tropey doesn't necessarily mean bad though.

Cookie cutters are an important part of making cookies. ?

Not really? If you look at your chapter views, they only start dropping with the latest one.
