I don't really watch them since I was never really interested in the genre to begin with. The only reason I got sick of the genre was seeing how much of it was getting churned out every season, and it seemed like other, better stories were being ignored in favor of selling discs.

Reverse Harem? I haven't touched one. Well, I did watch episode one of Ouran, but I really, really didn't like it.

I still like them. Not all of them obviously but that's no different from any other genre.

Though harems are *much* better in visual novels and eroge because that's what the genre is originally intended for, I.E. where every girl can have her own route so 1) everyone can have their own #bestgirl win and 2) it can actually have real endings since it doesn't have to stay at the status quo all the time.

Actually thats exactly how it is. I dont check what genre is anime I'm going to watch because I really choose anime randomly. Thats why I have all kinds of genres in my list, even those I dont like. I even watched few shounen-ai by mistake >_>

I probably watched around 3 before I started hating harem anime. I still watch it a bit, but usually only if the harem aspect isn't the major focus of it.

There are 2 types of Harem: fun time harem, and LN-tier harem. Yes, there are some exception, but most LN-harem is just too shitty its not even funny to look at.

LN-tier (shitty) harem: IS, DAL, SAO, NGNL, Haganai, Vasreus, you name it!
Manga-tier (fun) harem: Umi no Misaki, Kaminomi, 3nity7, Nisekoi, Ichigo 100%, Fujimura-kun Mates, Aizawa-san,

And yes, I'm still embrace this genre. And probably will never get tired of it.

It's hard to get sick of any genre to be honest, most people would probably stay away from the genre they are currently bored of and check other genre out. After some time, the boring genre will feel fun again (in this case harem instinct will kick in) and the party will continue :)

When they took out the harem element, and reduce it to just triangler. It becomes so much better than the original source. Namely, the manga (plus) spinoff.

The problem with most harem is MC's attitude. Even if the heroine pulls cute+adorable+kawaii as fuck. But if the MC has shitty attitude, the whole experience will be ruined. And LN series tends to have a lot of author self-insert which makes them far more worse than their brethren in another media.

well the MC attitude is one reason for harem anime to be shitty.
but the MC in Haganai is not that bad, maybe it's quite realistic than other Harem anime in which some lame useless half-assed MC just suddenly get his own harem without even trying, Haganai MC is far more decent than those shitty harem MC.

Yes, like avoiding romance issue and deliberately putting status quo for whatever reasons? Sounds like a decent MC alright. Also, knight in shining armor saving damsels in distress is not a rare trope.

ehh no I was gonna see if the TL project would ever finish first in which case I'll wait, though since there's been no update since April and it's only at 20% it's currently quite high up on my list of un-TL'd ones to read

something for christmas maybe, seems like a fitting time to do it given the theme

Watched Bakemonogatari (is it harem?), The World God only Knows, and Infinite Stratos. Never watch harem again after that. Well I still like TWGoK though only because I wanted to see Keima with Elsa(?) forgot her name.

I'd argue part of TWGOK's charm is that it mocks sterotypes and analyzes it partially. It works well as a transition between a classic setup that reminds me a bit of Ah My Goddess at times to a parody, much like the Monogatari at times (it tries more often than that, but usually fails).

That was what made this series interesting in the first place. But the Goddess Arc still the pinnacle of harem history.

I'm watching Blade Dance(which is not that bad if you can make it through the first couple episodes) this season, so I'm still watching harem's.

But if it sucks, then it will meet my drop list.
...or i'll be a masochist and finish it like date a live season 2.
