He's like, legitimately the worst harem MC that I know, I can't handle his massive denseness, which (LN SPOILERS!!!)

Well for one, he’d probably, most likely, die if he chose a girl. Or even did something with one of the girls. Better to play dumb than die imo.

I think ichika has a number reasons to play dumb.

1st the childhood trauma from his kidnapping and what his big sister had to give up and do to get him rescued it may make him uncomfortable getting romantic involved because of this

2nd he is the only male that can use an I.S. frame that must give someone things to think about (anime watcher only) so I don't know if the LN addressed this point

3rd the situation of some of the main harem characters

to pick one would crush girl the others and those that had a rougher life it may be too much for them

4th he as two childhood friends and the rival turn love interest plus as the only male in school pick a girl would cause all kinds of problems for him, tye girl he pick and the school staff (plus one of the teachers as eyes on him)

it was series like this and in another world with my smartphone, death March to the parallel world rhapsody, Highschool dxd and Highschool of the dead made me a fan of the harem ending

BTW Luara and Charlotte are my favorite although Cecilia and Houkai not far behind

The Harem is more of a survival from my viewpoint

True. If I remember one of the girls did try to kill him or something. Honestly the harem genre is more of a survival tactic imo.

True bro, his life is like a joke. The girls all love him and try thier best to show it but if he does anything stupid they literally try to kill him.

Being a harem protagonist is hard

Perhaps because they sense how badly Ichika Orimura was treated by both his sister and his IS harem physically and mentally. They put the blame on the guy for their own troubles. Including situations that he didn't participate at all.

Because useless basement dwelling cowardly waste of space top tier otaku/incel super losers and garunteed perma-virgin life rejects ALWAYS flock to defend their pathetic stain on existence fellow LOSERS and COWARDS which is why almost every defense just sounds like all the other aka an excuse for being a loser.
