Victims of molestation and harassment? The former, yes, but the story went out of its way to specify that this had no effect on them as they didn't think anything of it. Harassment? First, that's not true. Just flat-out you made that up in your mind to try to justify their behavior. Second, victims of harassment? Nothing that could even remotely be considered harassment, baring the actual molestation, would make them "victims". They weren't being groped by random men and stuff or anything like that. A victim is someone who is harmed. Someone at worst catcalling them (which I don't think even happened, but I could be remembering wrong) is not victimizing them. You use that word extremely loosely and degrade everyone who is a real victim. The only thing they're a victim of is pedophilia. Which, though terrible, again the story went out of its way to make it clear that this did not have an effect on them. Not sure why the mangaka did that, but, that's what the story says.What these girls are feeling is unhealthy and obsessive. They're victims of molestation and harassment that have never been able to trust men before, and then when they were about to be raped by a man they were saved by another man, who is now the sole man in their entire life that they have been able to trust and rely on. Because of this, they've developed an obsessive level of sexual desire for him. What they are feeling for him does not come out of a place of genuine love, but rather trauma, emotional repression and primal mating instinct.
The correct way to go about this situation from his perspective is to encourage them to see a psychiatrist for a minimum period of time, 6 months at least, to process their trauma (both recent and past) and how it's influencing their feelings about him, the man who saved them. At the same time encourage them to exercise and train in martial arts so that they can gain the ability to defend themselves physically against men, like they weren't able to last time, so that they develop sense of control and power.
While they're getting therapy and addressing their own issues, keep a platonic amount of distance between him and them. Tell them that if they are able to commit to the therapy and martial arts and achieve balanced mental states, he will consider responding to their feelings, but so long as they are in an unstable, obsessive and post-trauma state of mind he will not entertain their advances even a little bit.
If he goes on his current path and has sexual relations with them, he will be taking advantage of their unstable mental state and building a shallow and profoundly unhealthy relationship based on a foundation of pure carnal impulse. Such a relationship is destined to end in pain and suffering for both him and them.
And, seriously, if harassment is enough to make you a yandere lunatic, you are extremely disturbed and it has nothing to do with the harassment.
No, these girls are simply sick in the head by nature, probably a birth defect in their brains, and you are the kind of person who enables this behavior by making excuses for people who really do hate easily. Nevermind the obvious fact that it's wrong for them to project their feelings on everyone. Their behavior is clearly completely different from how girls normally react to the same stimuli that was presented thus far in the manga. Like the short-haired girl overhearing boys complimenting their bodies in a conversation that she was not part of and heard by accident. A normal girl would feel flattered, even if also maybe awkward and self-conscious about her body's changes as she is in puberty. Or perhaps it could be said she'd feel better about it because of the compliments. And, y'know, because girls are lustful. Far more so than boys, really.
As for taking advantage of their "unstable mental state", no, again you are wrong. Their mental instability is that they hate men. Their lust for him is simply natural because he saved them. It's not taking advantage of, is basic survival instincts. "He saved me, so he can protect me". The only reason you think it's a sign of mental instability is because you've been so brainwashed by modern liberal beliefs that you think women wanting a man who saved them is crazy and that he'd be taking advantage of them if he accepted instead of the truth: it's just common sense to for women to want a man who will protect them and this is, in fact, good.
You have created an entirely imaginary situation in which the main character is either the bad guy or a problem simply because women he rescued are crushing on him for saving them. Which is fitting, as this story is also imaginary. But, it indicates pretty bad things about your mental stability that girls wanting a guy who saved them causes you to perceive it like this.
