Related Reviews: Phantom in the Twilight anime and Haru Matsu Bokura movie

Another day...another misses... This is getting a habit now to just wait for the misses to hit the magic three so I can just dump mini-reviews in one go. (Transferred She's Gotta Have It)

Phantom in the Twilight-12 episodes- a collaboration between Japan and China

Baileu Ton and her friend Mu Shinyao moves to London. They witnessed a supernatural creature which leads Ton to Cafe Forbidden with handsome employees. Turns out, she has ties with the cafe's origins and its inhabitants.

It was watchable since it's not your usual reverse harem repertoire but as it near its end, I lost interest. Story-wise it had potential but it was lacking. I think it was trying to appeal both shoujo and shonen markets and failed. You can either go full shoujo or full shonen and not try to meet in the middle. Think Code: Breaker.

No favorite bishonen but Wayne looks interesting with his 'memories'. The other two are hinting interests but not really full-blown. And well, of course, it's a dead giveaway that Vlad is the main guy. They had a teeny-weeny moment when they all try to express their feelings for her. It has all the ingredients for reverse harem except for the romance which needs more pushing. I will add this under Three Flowers Level (see levels of reverse harem). It was also hinting a second season but sadly no thanks. Not that I think it would.

Haru Matsu Bokura movie (Waiting for Spring) - Japanese film based on manga by Anashin

Mitsuki Haruno is a timid girl and does not have any friends in school. But basketball holds a special place in her heart. It was a way for her to make friends before and then now...

I googled the manga before that there's a third guy liking her. Kill me if I'm wrong. But the movie is a love triangle only or two flowers. I don't mind that it was not a reverse harem but I found it boring that I'm at loss for words. Nothing really stood out for me.

I have not read the manga but I can see the appeal of the story in manga format. It's better perhaps 1if was animated. Some adaptations lose the appeal when it becomes a drama. You lose the art and the characters. But the trend now for shoujo mangas are mostly to drama adaptations and most shojo anime adaptations we are getting now are from otome games. Not that I'm complaining but I wish for more manga to anime.

Special mention to Tao Tsuchiya who was also in reverse harem dramas: 'Ani ni Aisaresugite Komattemasu' and 'Ouran High School Host Club', Yosuke Sugino of 'Aisaresugite Komattemasu' and 'Good Morning Call' and Yu Inaba of upcoming, 'Doubt Usotsuki Otoko wa Dare?'

Manga Review: Alice in Bishounen-Land Vol. 2 (final volume)

Alice in Bishounen-Land Volume 2 by Yushi Kawata Art by Yukito With the help of a new member or two, Alice and the newly-rebranded idol group Triple S progresses in the battles. Disclaimer A review copy was provided by the publisher. Check out the first volume review . The first volume is so weird but trust me it gets weirder. But once you got used to the humor, everything seems funnier this time around. The randomness of the backstories, the non-stop comical situations, and cheesy jokes. I'm loving them all now including the minor characters. The one thing that balances it all out is Alice. She's the shining beacon of reason and her spot-on observations make it more laughable. For something crazy, it briefly touches 'beauty is indeed in the eye of the beholder'. And it's not in your face at all. It is refreshing and satisfying to get some key takeaways from both volumes when you're least expecting one. The isekai element of the story is set inside an otome

🍉 Summer Reverse Harem 2024 🍉(anime, manga, manhwa, light novels and more!)

Hello wallflowers! The season's lineup is a bit late as we do not have news of summer anime and dramas yet. For now we have kinda reverse harem, Dahlia in Bloom. I'm really hesitant in adding it in the lineup but as we don't have one yet might as well put this up. But I did see rumors of Lost You Forever Season 2 for July airing and Take Me Where the Clouds Rise (SaiMono) for Q3. I do hope it becomes true! However, I'm seeing comments that the latter drama did not get the license for adaptation huhu The Forbidden Garden edition has also been updated. Make sure to follow any of Reverse Harem Garden's socials ( Youtube | Facebook | Twitter | Instagram | Tiktok ) to be updated on the latest titles! And a few disclaimers: Some are not full-blown reverse harem. See Levels of Reverse Harem . Those that are not yet reviewed are considered unconfirmed reverse harem.

Anime Review: Kiskis! My Boyfriends are Mint Candies!

Kiskis! My Boyfriend are Mint Candies!- 4 episodes Tang Tang meet guys who each represent a flavor of mint candies. It has a catchy, cute opening. At first there's a different feel on it which I can't pinpoint. And then I realized that they are talking in Chinese! This is my first completed Chinese animation. Well since it was way too easy to finish it. It's 5-minute ONA for 4 episodes. I think this premiered last June 4. But the first Chinese animation I watched is still currently airing (unconfirmed reverse harem), Phantom in the Twilight, which is a collaboration between Japan and China. Oh back to back Chinese reviews after The Flame's Daughter. Is China going to be booming with reverse harem now?

Manga Review: I Was Reincarnated as the Villainess in an Otome Game but the Boys Love Me Anyway! Vol. 2

I Was Reincarnated as the Villainess in an Otome Game but the Boys Love Me Anyway! Vol. 2 (Akuyaku Reijou Desu ga, Kouyaku Taishou no Yousu ga Ijou Sugiru) Manga by: Ataka Light novel: by Sou Inaida Art by: Hachipsu Wen All Mystia wants is to avoid death in the otome game she is reincarnated in and to keep her family and servants safe. However, the guys seem to have bugs and are either raising or missing events on their own. Disclaimer A review copy was provided by Netgalley. Check out the first volume review . In the first volume, Mystia meets two of Kyun Kyun Love's suitors, Raid and Eric. In this sequel, we get to see how she meets Jesse, the teacher. For the fourth guy, Robert, it is more of pleasantries. The nicknames in the first volume are still not crystal clear to me. The sparkling prince. The cool tsundere. The gaudy guy. The yakuza teacher. I managed to get the first two mixed up while the other two have yet to unfold their said attributes. The competitiveness between E

Reverse Harem or Not a Reverse Harem? Part 3 of 3: Princess Maid (webcomic) 37 chapters - ongoing

Princess Maid/Maid to be a Princess (webcomic/manhua) 37 chapters - ongoing by Koowa Group & Ayu & Heibaigeer Princess Sophia is a spoiled princess of Vesperang. Then overnight everything will be taken from her and the princess becomes a maid in the neighboring kingdom, Norterang. In Norterang there are five brothers: Alex, the cold eldest prince; Luka, the second prince loyal to Alex only; Cecil, the third prince with unknown motives, and the fourth prince Darcy who is sickly. There's a fifth brother not in the picture, the youngest prince Harry. The start of the story is reminiscent of how Akatsuki no Yona started but instead of going with Hak she was taken by Su-Won. But that's how far it goes in terms of similarities and it's a different story of its own. Sophia's strength is her cleverness. It's not super battling of the wits but I enjoyed how the story banked on that . I feel for her when she's being bullied but she hangs on and proved herse

Manga Review: Monster and Parent Vol. 3

Monster and Parent Volume 3 manga story and art by: Ichi Sayo Saika learns what the godeaters truly are and it's not pretty. Meanwhile, Aki is starting to act strange. Disclaimer: A review copy was provided by the publisher, Jnovel. Check out the previous reviews for Vol 1 and 2 . The story turns serious and dark but in a good way as it nears its climax. E verything's on the table now including the current states of the godlings, Sow and Squeak. Okay, I'm 90% sure that Squeak is not part of the reverse harem since Saika is his mother figure. I swear manga tropes are going to be the death of me. This volume seamlessly tackled multiple flashbacks and in a short time, the characters are effectively given depth. And I just love them all. Squeak is so cute. Saika is so naive. (Not a compliment though) Mitsuri is cute when he's crushing over Izumi and scary at the same time towards Nagumo. This is Kazuomi's volume as indicated in the cover. He's always consistent
