| I mean, in real life, its usually one guy being liked by many girls, or a girl having tons of guys after her. Thats how it is in real life. |
| No? Not at all, lmao. That’s some fantasy world shit. |

| What in the what is going on here, OP. |
 |
| anime romances themselves arent anything like real life let alone harems lmao |
| yeah idk where you got that idea, but most certainly not. not even close, huh?? not to be rude, but im not sure if you know how real life romance works |
 |
| yeah why not, if we are talking about older eras misogynistic kings or affair hungry queen...lol I hope u are taking about real-life toxic romance |

| to a lesser degree yes, but no way in hell those scenarios could happen irl. There was a guy in high school who was liked by 3 girls but after he got a gf the other girls didn't make any moves. And also, me and 2 other guys (friends kinda) liked this one girl who was a colleague at university. for a month we tried to appeal to her, inviting her to cafes and stuff like that, one time she wrote me a poem in french because I was nice to her at an early class (I was only going to that class because she was going to and the others were too lazy to come). I thought I had her but she chose other guy. Then the funniest thing happened, all 3 of us guys were living in the same dorm and this guy who "conquered" her came to the room of one of us with her, the scene was hilarious and resembled a bad harem comedy anime. I even told him that I would throw him out the window if he kisses her in front of us. i was so glad when they broke up. |

| I have friends with lots of online harem, rather a romantic relationship its more look like comedic relationship. he using his girlfriends to escorting him on online games. and remember, anime is form of Japanese escapism media. real life Japan pretty aromantic and mostly of them are busy with their jobs and has no time developing romantic relationship. |
k, imma gonna disappear |
| If only we all had harems. I knew some people that were liked by many but the anime harem tropes obviously didn't happen lol. |

to a lesser degree yes, but no way in hell those scenarios could happen irl. There was a guy in high school who was liked by 3 girls but after he got a gf the other girls didn't make any moves. Harems should be like that story you told. Most portray it that when the person chooses one, it is the end of the world for the other, also most harem anime take themselves seriously. It should be taken more as a comedy as it is an uncomfortable situation.And also, me and 2 other guys (friends kinda) liked this one girl who was a colleague at university. for a month we tried to appeal to her, inviting her to cafes and stuff like that, one time she wrote me a poem in french because I was nice to her at an early class (I was only going to that class because she was going to and the others were too lazy to come).

 a wise user of MAL said: Just to clarify, adaptations should absolutely stand on their own |
| The real fantasy about harem/reverse harem is that people actually speak their feelings. But yeah it's not a true depiction of rl. They're made almost entirely for self-insert because the MC is always surrounded by the perfect people. |

| Lmao no U can have multiple guys/girls liking u irl but is not like in a harem/reverse harem. Is totally different. |

| Some cultures exist with polyamorous relationships |
 |
| Yes, but people here will answer no because they think harem are limited exclusively to anime where the MC date multiple girls at the same time. While harem can also be applied to things like Oregairu and AoButa. |
| Harem anime have never been viewed as a realistic depiction in my eyes |
