Saijo no Osewa - Takane no Hana-darakena Meimon-kou de, Gakuin Ichi no Ojou-sama (Seikatsu Nouryoku Kaimu) wo Kagenagara Osewa suru Koto ni Narimashi…

FL still has her first significant growth arc a bit down the road from here. The harem will have grown to four by that time, but one of them is directly responsible for getting Hinako into that arc; even harem-haters might be willing to set that irrationality behind. I promise she gets much better than just vaguely but completely entrusting herself to him.

Idk, as far as i'm concerned i'm firmly in team Mirei now

Author really builds a strong case for each main girl as the series progresses. I've been Team Osananajimi ever since she became a major character and we got to see how much work Yuri had put into making a place for Itsuki to escape to when he finally had to, only to have that all taken from her without a word and still being willing to help the thieving-cat oujo-sama when her story finally overlapped with this one. Mirei fans have this and plenty more to lean on, though. Miyakajima will come out of her first two major arcs with plenty of fans of her own.

Spoiler: LN SPOILERS -- USUAL CAVEATS

The harem grows to four main girls, two of whom have confessed (one directly, one only barely not directly -- and the latter follows up later in the series to make it direct) and two minor members, neither of whom are pursuing him, each out of deference to one of the main girls, by V10.

To be fair, this carries the harem tag. It's on the tin.

Ohh thankss!!!

Yes, but there are a LOT of manga and manhwa out there that have harem tag on the tin, and then you find out MC actually only ends up with one of the girls and harem meant that multiple girls were interested.

This one, he has interest. Oddly enough, though, only in the two who make those confessions and, even then, he puts that aside because of his obsession with working hard, not because he's indulged in thoughts of anything more than a working partnership with Hanako somewhere down the line, let alone rewarding all those years of Yuri's moat-filling.

Given the ongoing nature of the LN series and the fact that it hasn't reached the end of the calendar year of their first high-school year (to say nothing of how far the manga lags behind even that), we don't know who he'll wind up with (ignoring the impact of being title girl), so it's fun to speculate.
