UPDATE: 8/25/2025 Added Synopsis on Gentlemen, I'm Under Your Care 

Penguin Random House has launched a new imprint, Ink Pop, dedicated to bringing manga, manhwa and webtoons to younger readers. Their launch list includes My Life as an Internet Novel alongside I Wanna Be Your Girl. My Life as an Internet Novel graphic novel, will be released on October 14, 2025.

Every novel has the usual cast: a gorgeous heroine, handsome boys vying for her attention, and a homely best friend at the heroine’s side. Dani, an ordinary student and avid reader of internet novels, is all too familiar with these tropes. But she never imagined that one day she’d wake up at the center of one herself! Her new fictional world is complete with a beautiful best friend named Yeoryung, and four impossibly good-looking boys who all happen to be in her class.  Dani is determined to stay out of the way and not get involved in the twists and turns of the plot. But is she really just the sidekick -- or is Dani actually the leading lady? Anything is possible in the world of a novel!

The comic’s first to third seasons are available on Webtoon, but Season 4 will be published elsewhere due to difficulties with the platform. Season 4 is set to return in Fall 2025, as teased on the creator's instagram. A live-action drama was also announced in 2021, and the paperback was published by Rocket Entertainment.(Order links below) Source: Wiki

The seven most popular boys at Decelis Academy all share a secret―they’re vampires. The brothers have been on the run for years after a mysterious enemy burned their orphanage down, and just when they think they’ve finally found a bit of respite, the appearance of new student Sooha changes everything! Beginning as a budding friendship after Sooha is saved from a monster attack by the oldest brother, Heli, their lives quickly take a turn for the strange. Why is it that all of them have supernatural abilities and share dreams about a princess and her knights? As Sooha and the boys find themselves inexplicably drawn together, a dark moon rises ominously overhead… And their fated love just might deliver a deadly bite.

While battling a deadly illness, Cocolette Blossom suddenly recalls her past life—a lonely existence spent fantasizing about her handsome 2D faves. Determined to finally live out her romantic dreams, she resolves to marry a real-life hottie this time around. But in her new world, “hotties” don't exactly meet her expectations. In fact, they look like absolute monsters—and the guys who actually catch her eye? They're considered hideous and total social outcasts! Undeterred, Cocolette sets out to snag her ideal man in Crown Prince Raphael. Yet even though they both fall for each other at first sight, the “hideous” Prince Raphael is weighed down by a dark past and cripplingly low self-esteem. With wedding bells still ringing, can Cocolette boost her prince charming's confidence enough to prove her love is real?




Gentlemen, I’m in Your Care, a vertical c-drama, will premiere on August 26. Adapted from the web novel Wu Ge Feng Pi Quan You Bing, Tie Tie Nv Zhu Jiu Quan Yu (äŗ”äøŖē–Æę‰¹å…Ø꜉ē—…，č““č““å„³äø»å°±ē—Šę„ˆ).  Source: MDL  (Added to Summer Reverse Harem 2025)

webnovel synopsis: The five crazy people are all sick, and the heroine will be cured if they stick to her. The heroine flees, the world faces collapse, and Ran Zhen is drafted into the system as a soldier. The good news: she doesn't have to conquer the hero, nor does she have to follow the original plot. The system promises that as long as she stays long enough to deceive the world's consciousness, she will not only be freed but also given a large sum of money. The bad news: there are five male protagonists, each with a disease. Each of these men is more abnormal than the last in the plot, but fortunately, Ran Zhen doesn't need to be involved with them. She just needs to be a good employee and run away when the progress bar is full. But who knows— the insomniac boss falls asleep next to her. The face-blind celebrity catches her at first sight in the crowd. The woman-phobic rich second-generation kid grabs her and won't let go. The color-defective painter paints a blue sky and white clouds next to her. Even the analgesic boss No. 2 suddenly smiles after being slapped by her and asks her to do it again.

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. šŸ˜…Sorry! Who knows, this might turn into one of your treasured favorites, too! Winning a copy of Mia and the Forbidden Medicine   Report back in 2020 gave me the push to request review copies and start covering licensed titles + licensing news . 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 .

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. ...

Light Novel Review: I Reincarnated as Evil Alice so the Only Thing I'm Courting is Death!

I Reincarnated as Evil Alice so the Only Thing I'm Courting is Death~( Akuyaku Alice ni Tensei Shita node, Koi mo Shigoto mo Houki Shimasu!)  Written by Chii Kurusu Art by: Minato Yaguchi Translated by: Emma Schumacker   While carrying out her secret executioner duties Alice bumps her head and realized she is reincarnated into her favorite otome game which won the Deadliest Game of the Year award. Together with the bad boy butler, Jack; sinful man, Leeds; the Tweedle twins and walking death flag, Earl Knightley.  Disclaimer: A digital review copy of this book was provided by the publisher. She knows the ins and outs of the story but the routes are not moving forward just like it goes in the game.   I felt lost at first too with the story and was wandering aimlessly with Alice. And when she decided her purpose, I was not convinced. It is fast-paced it's just that the premise was different in how the story played out.  But those who are patient are rewar...

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'...

Light Novel Review: I'd Rather Have a Cat than a Harem! Reincarnated into the World of an Otome Game as a Cat-loving Villainess Vol.1

I'd Rather Have a Cat than a Harem! Reincarnated into the World of an Otome Game as a Cat-loving Villainess Vol.1 by Kozusu Kobato Art by: Hinano Chano Translation by Jenny Murphy | Under Winter Reverse Harem 2022 Amy is the 10-year old daughter of Earl of Northland. She suddenly remembers her past life as a highschool student in Japan. And it's not just her...her whole family gets reincarnated! But instead of becoming a villainess and having a harem, she would rather just have a pet cat. Her mom hatches a plan of having her gain weight to ward off an engagement. Disclaimer: A review copy was provided by the publisher.  It should be obvious by the title that it is going to be more of cats than harem. It's a heaven for anyone who loves cats so much. There will be a cat mountain, cat cosplay, and a whole lot more cat cuteness. If you are not obsessed with cats or animals, by the end of the book you will be one.  Of course, we're still going to talk about the harem members...

šŸ’Ž18 Gems: Reverse Harem Reads That Shaped Me from 2007-2019 (Manhwa, Manga & Novels)

Hello wallflowers! This is Ayreesa. These 18 titles span 2007–2019 , my ultimate scanlation era . I didn't include series that already have anime adaptations and focused on stories I’ve finished or followed through many volumes. They are arranged in the order I read them. If you are new to reverse harem, treat these as hidden gems of reverse harem, but be warned that some tropes may feel dated or problematic today. This is Part 1 of 4 of Reverse Harem Garden  18th birthday series .  In the Philippines, a debut ball includes dancing with 18 boys who each offer a rose—known as the 18 Roses—and receiving 18 candles and messages from girls. Some even add their own twist with 18 gifts, 18 bills, or even 18 shoes… you get the idea. Some are kinda reverse harem. See Levels of Reverse Harem.
