Like the Daily Lives of High School Boys or Gekken Shoujo Nozaki-kun?

EDIT: I should probably be a little more specific ^^;;

Looking for something that doesn't centralize on romance (mostly used for comedy or something is fine) in a high school setting. I really like stuff stuff with kind of dumb characters that follow weird logic for comedic purposes.

Hmm, not really want I'm looking for. I kind of want to stay away from anything that has a lot of romance in it and harems aren't really my thing.

Yahari doesnt have romance. I mean i guess there is bits of romance but its mostly comedy. Maybe in season 2 there will be romance.
But ya up to u if u want to watch. I think its a good anime either way.

Outbreak Company isnt romance. And he doesnt have a harem.

Also I recommend Tonari no Kaibutsu kun.

It's shoujo, but you wouldnt know if i didnt tell you.

Ah, icic. I'll keep it in mind for later on - the aesthetic is nice. I watched about 10 minutes of it but it didn't really have the kind of fast paced, over the top vibe I was looking for.

That's good to know - I was going off wikipedia rather than mal lol. Kind of flipped through it as well but it wasn't what I was looking for either. Kind of just looking for stuff that's super self-aware and calls out on overused tropes.

I'm disappointed MAL, isn't Ouran THE go-to series for shoujo/reverse harem parody?

I probably regret this post by now.

Well, Ouran is your best bet.

I just didnt bother recommending it because I assumed you had seen it.
