Why does it have to be Harem?

ThornPrincess said:

It is technically harem, but almost in the way that Toradora is a harem.
In Toradora, there are three girls pining for the affection of Ryuuji, one of whom he even believes himself to like for a long time. But despite that, it’s pretty clear who the “winner” is right from the get-go.
Cuckoos is the same way: there are multiple girls pining for the affection of Nagi, one of whom he even believes himself to like for a long time. But despite that, it’s pretty clear who the “winner” is right from the start.
Overall, it’s more a rom-com with harem elements than a harem with rom-com elements, ya know?

It is still a little weird in the manga, as they were raised together, but it’s explained that the girl knew for a long time they weren’t related, which is why she developed feelings.
Meanwhile, the boy didn’t know, so he emphasizes over and over again that he only sees her as a sister, so that whole “relationship” doesn’t really go further than that.
Don’t need to worry about it going all Oreimo or anything 😂

Honesty, just looks like a shitty Nisekoi

The plot sounds fun and interesting but why does it have to be harem? And although it's not incest, I think it's still very weird that you fall in love with a person you treated your whole life as a sibling (now, I'm just basing that from the trailer).

"Why does it have to be harem" is a rather stupid question to ask because the answer's "because it is." That's how the author wrote it.

You don't enjoy harem. You don't enjoy the younger sister trope. If those things don't interest you there's no point in bitching about them. Go find a non-harem non-onii-chanime to watch.

jooni5 said:

Wow. Who hurt you?
If you don't like my question then there's no point in answering it if you're only gonna bitch about it instead of giving reasons why someone who isn't a fan of harem should watch it. You don't even follow your own logic. kRazy.

Kene_M said:

Lol, why should he care if you are not a fan of harem anime.

jooni5 said:

You clearly cared enough to reply.
You're free to voice your opinion but at least follow your own logic. Lol.

Kene_M said:

DId I say that I didn't care, lol. I'm wondering why you were expecting him to give you reasons to watch this.
