Fuck me, I just realized this "Overseas Arc" was a way to inject Haru into a Harem story line without Karen to intervene.
Harems are a plague to all Romance Comedies, it's a fucking plague I tell you. Some make it 20, 30, even 50 chapters in but eventually they'll add a "Second Girl". For what reason I can't tell you, I hate it just like I hate NTR. But you'll never see a "Second guy" on that note, because two guys and one girl crosses the incredibly thin line into Netorare.
First you are wrong.... Reverse harems exist...
2nd, harem series aren't a plague, but forcing a harem when the story was clearly just the romance of 2 people is stupid...
3rd, this was ALWAYS a harem series... Just that now that all the other girls know he's taken, they added harem 2.0
4th, the real plague is when problems that don't need to exist are forced down our throat... When authors are too f****** scared to go with their own story...
Harem stories that go half-assed... Overpowered protagonist that have drama because the author is too scared to have an overpowered protagonist... Etc.
Aka, harem when we already have our couple together...
Or a girl that could easily be stopped if Haru could just f***ing fight...
Problems that feel like they do not need to exist but our existing solely for the sake of existing...
If author wanted a harem series, he should have done it...
This isn't just the half assed harem that isn't a harem series (MC is popular and in harem like situations)...
This is the harem that isn't a harem while the main girl already won... And it's still forcing the harem...
