Freshest News: Sleepy Princess in the Demon Castle and My Unicorn Girl premiere dates + Cafe Kilimanjaro kdrama

(Warning: Titles below may not be or most likely not reverse harem. I may or may not watch it. Also see, Levels of Reverse Harem)

The official site announced the supporting cast of Maoujou de Oyasumi/Sleepy Princess in the Demon Castle. The anime will air in October. Source: MAL (I saw in the comments that it's basically a reverse harem anime sub-genre but the focus is not romance/shipping. It's tagged under shonen/fantasy/comedy. Let me know if you have read the manga.)

Synopsis from Viz: Sshhh! Princess Syalis is trying to get a good night's sleep. Some shut-eye. Forty winks. Catch some Z's. Long ago in olden times when people and demons lived together in—well, disharmony, really—a demon king kidnaps a human princess and imprisons her in his castle. Bereft, the princess's subjects beat their chests in anguish…until a hero arises to spearhead Project Rescue Our Princess! While waiting for her knight in shining armor, what's an imprisoned princess to do...? Teddy-bear guards with bat wings are all very well, but her dungeon cell is bo-o-o-ring! So, she decides to wile away the long hours by sleeping. Now if only she could get comfortable…and didn't suffer from insomnia...

My Unicorn Girl premieres tonight, August 23rd, on iQiyi. (It looks like not a reverse harem drama since the promos show main couple and two other couples .)

Synopsis from MDL: Sang Tian is a lovely young woman. On her eighteenth birthday, she made a promise to get into the figure skating team of her mother's Alma mater no matter what. Alas, her usually lucky self fails the examinations. Through some strange circumstances, Sang Tian disguised as a man joins the ice hockey recruitment and gets hired. Because the team does not accept women, she has no choice but to continue the ruse. Thinking that her plan was seamless, she hits a road bump when prankster Wen Bing appears in her life. The two made enemies out of each other during an encounter outside school but they must now live in the same dorm and fight as teammates in their quest to win the ice hockey league championship. Can Sang Tian keep her identity in the wraps?

Web drama, "Cafe Kilimanjaro", started airing last August 13. Also available on Viki. (The promotional video shows only one guy interested in her.)

Synopsis from Viki: "As a high school student, San Ha (Viini) never really had any sort of ambitious dream or grand plan for his life. Nothing really piqued his interest and nothing seemed worth his time. But that all changed the day he and his friends decided to start a band. Suddenly inspired to make this new dream come true, San Ha and his friends, Ji Ho (Choi Si Hoon) and Chan (Baek Jin), were determined to make their band successful. However, they soon realized that starting a band was easy, while finding success was not. After graduating high school, life began to slowly lead the friends in different directions. Though their dreams of becoming a successful band still kept them going, they soon realized that life demanded a bit more of them than it had in high school. Now working as a part-timer, San Ha has no time to focus on anything but the present and he hasn’t heard from his friends in ages. On the brink of giving up all hope, his friends return and with them comes a renewed determination to make their dreams come true. Now ready to turn dreams into reality, the friends rent a practice space from an inexperienced coffee shop proprietor, who seems to have gotten in way over her head. With a whole new world of obstacles before them, this indomitable set of friends is determined to let nothing come between them and their dreams.

👑 18 Treasures: Favorite Reverse Harem Reads from 2020-2025 (Manga, Manhwa, Webtoons & Novels)

Hello, Wallflowers! This is Ayreesa. I recently shared my 18 Gems : reverse harem reads from 2007–2019 that shaped me. Now it’s time for my personal favorite* reverse harem reads from 2020 to present , listed in the order I read them. Personal favorite = Some are problematic. 😅Sorry!

I’d love to cover even more stories, but both time and budget keep me from reading everything on my list. To make the most of my schedule, I share quick impressions and mini-reviews on Patreon. If you’d like to help me keep exploring new titles, you can support me through Patreon or Ko-fi . E very bit means so much! This is Part 2 of 4 of Reverse Harem Garden 18th birthday series .

All-Time Top Ten Reverse Harem Anime

Hello Wallflowers! I am not going to do a decade in review since I did that already a couple of years ago. but I am loooong overdue for my top 10 anime. I actually made one coincidentally a decade ago but it's a consolidated top 10 of everything from anime, manga and dramas as the titles are fewer back in 2010. I should have done it sooner but it's the nagging feeling that I should finish everything before I can post this. What if there's a hidden gem in my backlog that piled up beginning 2015 (due to pregnancy)? Fast forward to last year and major life events later, I have finished nine anime in eight months. It felt like forever. And after that, I found out I could actually start the list even without watching the backlog. LOL But the good thing is I was able to finish it and that has put off a lot of guilt feelings from me. I mean who blogs about reverse harem and never watches past the first episode??? Sadly, I don't remember most of the story of the anime...

English Otome Mobile Apps

English otome apps are now available in smartphones! The art and the bishies are eye candy and the premises are engaging. These are all paid apps but they all come with free prologues to tempt your wallets. Finally, English games that are accessible! I wish I can just pay it in my local currency rather than credit card. "Pirates in Love" is the first title of Voltage Romance Sims. It's available both in itunes and play. You'll have to pay for each characters and epilogues. I really want to play Eduardo! "My Forged Wedding" is also from Voltage and are also available in itunes and play . The prologue doesn't give away the details as to why exactly they need to fake the wedding but check out the video above to have an idea why. I'm gravitating to Saeki (the ladies man) and Yamato (the rude guy). Also, the "uncle" seems to be play-able character in the future. Interesting. ...

Webtoon Reviews: A Whirlwind Campus Affair, The Kiss Bet, and My Clueless Love Diary

I’m excited to share the mini-impressions and mini-reviews I first posted in the Patreon newsletter making their public debut as part of 18 Treasures : Favorite Reverse Harem Reads of the 2020s~ Manga, Manhwa, Webtoons & Novels of the Reverse Harem Garden 18th Birthday Series . A Whirlwind Campus Affair manhwa on Webtoons Rumor has it that Baram Oh had an affair with her married art school professor. It’s been four years since that debacle, and now she’s back at campus to try and enjoy her college life. But she’s not the only thing who’s returned: there’s rumors of a water ghost roaming the halls, and it just might be following her around. June 2, 2023 Baram returns to art school after a scandal. It's addicting, cute, funny, and I finished all season 1 in two days, and I want moooooore! I love the pink 'fits of the Baram Oh. At first, I wasn't sure who to root for as all the guys are on equal footing at the start, but as the story goes along, I know where my heart...

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?

Winter Reverse Harem Dramas 2021 Reviews Part 1: Fling at Convenience Store, No Going Back Romance, Life of Namjoo, 3B No Koibito, Mairunovich & Girl2k

This is the record-breaking number of dramas in one season! Nine reverse harem dramas not including 300 Year-Old Class of 2020 which seems like a promotional show? I can't see myself doing one review at a time. It's going to take me forever so I'll review them in one go. I have yet to finish cdramas: Celestial Authority Academy, In Love With Your Dimples and Unique Lady/Lascivious Lady Season 2. Those are 20+ episodes each. It's also hard to rank them as they have different formats but I've grouped them according to country of origin. Some are super short whilst others are just right. There were some that I loved but the ending left me sad. And there was one or maybe two that are not a reverse harem! Reverse harem baiting!!! asdfjisojgjrjgk And there's one drama where the heroine didn't choose anyone! Now, now...not gonna tell which drama was that. *evil laugh* kdramas Coincidentally, all these dramas are short and didn't disappoint. Okay, there'...

Levels of Reverse Harem

The video above is Levels of Reverse Harem version 2 (also posted here ) Reverse Harem titles were very limited when I first started the blog eleven years ago. I was flexible with many titles where it's only one or two guys interested in the female protagonist and other gray areas. But we are now at a point where I can be strict with labeling reverse harem. Let's start with the classification of reverse harem-ness. This is for my sake too if in case I run off course again. 1. Five Flowers - This is literally reverse harem. The heroine has a harem of her own in her inner chamber. And we only have one example for this, manga and drama, Ooku. UPDATE: Please check STAGES OF REVERSE HAREM for more examples.
