This series continues to chug along well. Can't wait to see how this keeps going. What I find weird though is all the d6 rolling, I thought it was more dnd based? I'm guessing GURPS or something now.

Also I just found out from the novel, this is going to become harem :( and it's Polygamy harem tags. Super sigh
Did you really read the novel?
Pretty sure that
there are 0 marriage so far, unless you count the Hendersons. Which basically are the what-if stories. And even those end up in monogamy.

Nah, polygamy harem means it will be like multiple wives, normal harem can be like 1 winner girl and alot of other girls that want to be with MC but can't/won't/denied.
That makes sense. I hadn't looked at it that way.

Damn, I guess I will only read until the point where the harem starts. But too bad that it will become like that. :(

Technically, by the definition of the word a "harem" requires a married couple to be an actual harem.
( but not multiple wives funny enough, since unmarried people can belong to a harem as well )

But the "Harem tag" has been used on groups of unmarried people who just live together a lot too.
And language changes over time anyway, so it's not really a huge stretch of the word.

Thats why I said Tags, even if they arent married the polygamy and harem tag are a bad sign. Not a series ender but gah wish it didnt have so.

Saying that he's got the "highest initiative roll" and "rolling the dice" in that situation seems pretty random. He's been using his skills that have been acquired but now he has to roll the dice?? lol

Isn't any harem inherently polygamy?
The term “harem” is used in a non-standard and misleading way in discussing this cluster of genres. Here, it refers to storylines in which multiple females fall in love or in lust with the principal protagonist. (The complementary theme, with multiple males, is called “reverse harem”.)

The theme appeals to people who see members of the desired sex more as means of personal validation than as ends.

The novel has no polygamy tag. You know the what-if route at the very starts of this novel? Yes it's a Henderson, a derailment, which means marriage with Margit herself is a derailment to the story. Whoever tags it is a troll.

Harem tag, yes. But like, our Erich already has a harem during this childhood period as revealed in a side-story, since he earns enough money by himself to buy medicine for his sickly sister and money speaks worth.

Cool to know but just know the Novelupdates does have the polygamy tag so unless (like you pointed out) its discounted I have to trust it.

Margit is probably my most favorite girl in any isekai. I hope that she is the main girl, just like it was showed in a "what if" part of chapter 1.

So I'm guessing dude promise the spider girl that he'll be her boyfriend or whatever, right? Although I don't like the fact that he had to make such a promise just to get her to help.

To those who are worried about the "harem" tag, I've read all the novels that have been released in English so far, relax and there's no hint of that aside from the usual romcom shenanigans/sexual tensions... Also, what's wrong with harems exactly? XD I for one I'm sorely disappointed when my isekai of choice does not dips its toes in the good old harem trope! ;-D
