From the few episodes aired, This looks like its going to be a harem. Especially after reading from some source readers that later on there will be more female characters falling in love with the MC.

I can tell you that there is definitely romance, but it's no harem. I know it is shocking to some, but you can have one without the other.

Apparently the story isn't afraid to kill girls either though.

Except Subaru also dies.

For it to be a harem there needs to be at least 3 people in love with the MC... which is clearly not the case here at least so it's not a harem

Maybe later on in the novels, what do I know, but out of what's aired yet absolutely not

Don't know about the LN, but so far only possibly Emillia has feelings for Subaru, so not really a harem for now. But perhaps, later on...though it needs to be 3 or more girls for it to be classified as one.

Okay bruh, let's do a little litmus test. What's key point that makes a harem? Hint, it's not fact there girls around MC. There is certain relationship needs to happen between every female and male.

...ok...

You are making an assumption that it is a harem because you see the MC surrounded by several female characters on a poster (and I'm 100% sure you haven't watched the anime/read the novel). You have the best logic in this world, I must acknowlede it.

Also, for it to be a harem you have to have these female characters to all be all over the male MC guy, which isn't the case (if you watched it, you would know it).

In fact, none of these are right now. Which speaks volumes about your stupid assumption.

It's not technically a harem but it does fall in the typical guy surrounded by cute girls theme and focuses mostly on saving those cute girls, you know, series like Index and Monogatari seres. They're not categorized as harems but with the majority of the cast being female with the main being one of the few even relevant male characters, they're sometimes treated by them by some people.

It is a harem though, and LN is tagged too. You will soon see it in second season if it goes upto vol 6/7.

OT- afaik, it's not.

No it isn't and I say this as someone who what will happen even beyond what the anime will cover this season. The tags are placed by the usual people who don't know anything and just went off their own projections of the show..

If you and Subaru are masochists, then this is indeed surely without doubt a harem series. There are three (or five if you include Felt and Beatrice) female characters falling in love with the MC so far in the anime. Even three males fall in love with him. That's how ridiculously harem this anime is. Swagamoto pales in comparison.

Thank you, I feel the same way. Most people seem to believe that it's the romance aspect that makes a harem a harem, but it's more like the character interactions of a single male character with a variety of girls who follow different character archetypes to a certain extent.

If the definition of a harem series is "multiple girls falling for the MC", then yes it is a harem.

Does it focus on the harem as much as it does on the thriller? Not even close.

The way I see it.

People hate the term harem because they feel like all harems are bad therefore if a show is good it can't be a harem, even though that's not the case.

Yes this is a harem. You see, there are two beautiful young ladies that are currently after Subaru's heart and attention.

First is Death-san. She is the wilder of the two ladies, and one that continues to go after him time and time again. While she is not by his side all that often, her occasional appearances in his life bring a lasting impact, one that continues to leave an impression on him that makes him change for the better.

Second girl is Suffering-chan. She is the more stable and reliable of the two. While she may not have an explosive impact in his life like Death-san, she is however there with him through thick and thin. Whether he is at home doing chores, or out adventuring in the world, she has consistently remained by his side through it all.

So yes.. this is in fact a harem.

You can call it this way. It's probably edgiest harem since School Days. Others obviously don't agree with you. And be extremely angry if you insist on incorrect terminology. Up to you really.

No it's not and anyone that thinks otherwise is simply deluded. You need at least 3 or more female characters romantically interested in the mc for this to be harem series.
