I'm gonna get nauseous from the whiplash of this story flip flopping from trauma porn rape to revenge torture to cutesy romance shenanigans and back again
true. guess that means we oughta appreciate the romance shenanigans while it lasts before it just hammers down on the depressing gut-wrenching violence.

Can somebody explain to me how this got the Harem tag ? I only read like 20-50? chaps years back and there was no Harem tag, nor was it building up or even hinted at that. Wasnt this a manga all about killing scumbags as a premise ?

Damn, I refuse to have hope. Since it's this manga, it's probably her severed head or skin on top of a midget or something.

probably someone having a giggle with the tags because a couple of girls expressed interest in MC a couple of times and that's supposedly enough to call it "harem" :facepalm:

Are you serious? Is there even a woman who isn't dead or an antagonist who hasn't expressed irrational attraction for Uruma? It's probably not on the level of shitty OP hero isekai, but when all in-story women are stealing kisses from the protagonist, showing him their titilatting pictures and confessing, this is a harem manga regardless of what you think.

In fact, even the girl who is supposed to be dead and is back now is the one Uruma had sex with to "erase her rape memories". Are you really going to argue this isn't a harem?

I don't really care who expresses interest in whom, it's not a story about his harem of girls, it's not focused on his relationships and "uuoogh whom will he pick", and "harem" is most certainly not a descriptor of what the story is about, which is the purpose of tags. It's just a small thing happening from time to time. By your logic almost literally every story needs a slice of life tag because there are slice-of-lifeish events happening everywhere. Why aren't you arguing for slice of life tag here then? There have been a number of chapters not relating to the main plot in this manga.
P.S. also, out of 4, one girl peaced out probably for a very long time (Reo) and before that existed for less than a dozen of chapters, and other two only showed interest in like the last 10% or less of the story. The last one barely even features in the second half of the story.

Well… no. You're just arbitrarily introducing requirements. Most OP hero isekai have harem tags, even when the romantic part is only played for laughs. Harem is defined as a situation where a majority of female characters make advances on the male protagonist. It says nothing whether it's central, peripheral or marginal to the plot, and there's no prescription on percentages. Whatever exposition time these women have, they're fawning on him. That's all it takes. Sexual violence is a tag and happens about 10% of the pages, too. You could argue that sexual violence is a trigger tag, that people choose not to read a series if it's present, and as such even if it's just one incident, it should be added. Well… harem is a trigger tag for some people too, and I'm pretty sure they'd be equally irked by the events here as if they happened more often.

SoL I agree with you is an abused tag. In principle, I think it should only apply to characters who're living ordinary lives that could be lived by real people. You see the SoL tag even in fantasy series, which is plainly absurd. But that's not the hill I wanna die on. This is not a SoL because nobody here is living an ordinary life. Full stop.

This is a harem. It's a thriller, revenge porn, sexual violence, tragedy… and a harem, too. The author seems to be writing straight from the loony bin. It's so bad it's hilarious, which is why I'm still reading it. And having harem scenes alternating with revenge porn makes it more hilarious. Live with it.
