Kamisama Hajimemashita

The homeless Nanami is wandering aimlessly due to her father's debt. She meets Mikage who transfers the "god' seal to her. She becomes the land god of a rundown shrine with guardians, Onikiri and Kotetsu and fox familiar, Tomoe.  Someone suggested the manga years ago but I didn't find it as reverse harem then. When I found out it was going to be animated, I was on a lookout for it since I enjoyed the manga. But lo and behold the poster looks so reverse harem! It was only then that I realized the significance of the three beasts lore: fox, crow and snake.  It's a device prevalent in mangas especially in reverse harem titles like Love Monster, Black Bird etc. The anime reminds me of Maid-Sama. It's light, refreshing, funny and sweet. The set up also reminds me of Maid-Sama, although there's other guys (erm beasts) who are after her, the main story is really about Nanami and Tomoe. I need season 2! Pronto! I seriously need to find time to read the

The Harem Garden

The news of a harem series reversed into a 'reverse harem' brings back to a realization that I was harem fan before I became reverse harem fan. Okay repeat 10 times. But seriously, I have nothing against harem but after Fushigi Yugi left a big void inside of me and after discovering reverse harem in Ouran, I had to crossover and there's no turning back.  After stumbling upon news that one of my old favorite animes was turned into a reverse harem. I just had to watch the opening sequence again and it brough back of a nostalgic wave of my old harem favorites. My favorite shows then were Saber Marionette J,  Gatekeepers, Oh my Goddess, Tenchu Muyo, Sakura Wars, Love Hina and Vandread. Here's some of the catchy opening songs I've loved:

It's an OVA included on the February issue of Ciao based on Chitose Yagami's manga.

It has a Yumeiro Patissierie and Shugo Chara feel on it but minus the Thumbelina-sized flying creatures. I can't confirm if this is already complete or not.
