Others have already explained about the yuri in general, but here’s a thing about the polygamy.
Polygamy is illegal in Japan.
You can get away with this in an isekai or something, but this is set in modern day Japan. Unless the author wants to yank out the most ridiculous asspull known for quite some time, the possibility of a polygamous marriage is impossible.

No, this manga started off as a budding friendship between Tadano and Komi. Slowly, very slowly, they’ve figured out they’re interested in something more; Tadano still hasn't fully come to terms with it. Manbagi’s a newer character, and right now she’s focused on her crush on Tadano, but she could easily head down the same path with Komi if the writer wants to go there.
OK, but that’s…almost every scene with Katai, period. He blushes and doki-doki’s at Tadano and nobody else, including the normally irresistible Komi. He gives the boy chocolate on Valentine’s, he squeals internally over sleepover chances. There really is more support for the guy’s being gay than straight. You don’t have to care about that if you don’t take the character seriously, but it is what it is.
Uh-huh.
As for Komi, earlier in the story she was still in the “never fallen in love before” stage. She hasn’t had a chance to find out what all she is—or what all the writer wants her to be. There’s already like four female cast members who are openly interested in other girls, so it’s not like they don’t exist in this ‘verse.

Actually, there’s been a fair amount of research in this area, and on average poly people and monogamous people are about equally well-adjusted and happy in their relationships.
But that’s the real world; we were talking about the possibilities for relationship drama in fiction. @LegionGuy49 said they didn’t like harem endings because there’s no heartbreak or emotional drama, and I was just pointing out that with polyamorous endings you can have all the drama you want.

Not that marriage is very relevant to our protagonists at this point in their lives. Japanese people typically don’t get married until their late 20’s or 30’s.

Sure, but polyamory is perfectly legal; like most Western countries, Japan has no law against extramarital relationships. It’s just that people have to pair up on paper for the legal marriage part.

Oh, i see. The mangaka is also a man of culture 😃😃
Yeah, it always boggles me why would you do that to yourself as a guy. Luka Kovachi is pretty low key as far as gl is concerned, but the things Merryhachi sometimes posts on twitter... her husband must be either brave, stupid, or by this point, just a defeated man.
Similar case with Mariel Cartwright. Not judging, just want to understand what tf all those dudes were thinking.
As for the comment section in general...yurifoglets, sexually_liberatedTM tweentysomethings, and (as always) fujoshis are the worst. One has to wonder tho, why sapphic fetishists would be even here in the first place.
