What does reverse harem mean?
Reverse harem is a genre in which a female protagonist has multiple love interests. This is a very popular trope in anime and Japanese otome (dating) games. In a traditional harem, a man has multiple female lovers, so in a reverse harem, a woman has multiple love interests. These love interests are usually men, but they don’t have to be. Unlike a love triangle, the woman does not choose between the love interests and usually ends up in a relationship with all of them. Literary expert and content creator Francesca Bensi says that reverse harem is also known as the “why choose?” romance trope. This term is more common in Western media, like romance novels, while “reverse harem” is still popular in anime.
