Prince of Legend franchise has launched a new manga project, Prince of Ghost, on November 22, 2025, on Palcy. Source: Prince Projet Official (Not a licensed manga)

 Mikoto Saionji, an ordinary high school girl, is left all alone after her parents die in an accident. After the funeral, the lawyer in charge of managing the estate suddenly tells her to live in a "dilapidated house." Terrified by the eerie atmosphere, she peeks inside and finds a mysterious coffin... In an instant, the coffin and the necklace left behind by her mother glow, and from within emerges a "youkai" with its face covered in bandages. From that day on, Mikoto becomes embroiled in a great war with youkai that began hundreds of years ago...!?

TV series (2018) and movie (2019)

stage adaptation

Prince of Legend had two TV series, two movies, and a mobile game. Mini-reviews are available on Patreon. A new stage play adaptation, Prince of Legend ~ Bayside Star, ran from September 12 to October 26, 2025. Another performance is ongoing from November 22, 2025, to January 4, 2026.


Fantasy-World Dressmaker Sofia manga Volumes 1 and 2 are free to read on Manga Mirai until January 4. The manga was released on June 20, 2025.

(Not a confirmed reverse harem, but based on the volume covers, especially the first one featuring the male leads/capture targets as noted on the Novel Updates Forum. It definitely gives RH vibes.)

Sophia is reborn as a mob character in the world of her favorite otome game. Faced with the threat of her family's downfall, she begins to "make clothes" using her knowledge from her previous life as a seamstress. She opens a tailoring shop, and various requests come her way...? A work fantasy in which a poor daughter changes the world with the magic of clothes!


I Became the Target of the Male Leads manhwa premiered on November 26, 2025, on Tapas.

Elze, the villainess, was Marquis Oppenheyer’s plaything, used and unloved, fated to die at the hands of the three male leads. Now, a reader finds herself in Elze’s shoes. In order to save her life, Elze must first ingratiate herself with the male leads. As the evil superintendent of a nefarious boarding school, Elze is pinned between embattled student Lucian, the kidnapped son of a duke, her own murderous marquis, and a guild master–one of whom may be her ticket to freedom from her doomed fate.


Stuck in Class with the Crazy Male Leads manhwa will be released on December 13, 2025, on Tapas.

“On an Unbelievably Unlucky Day, I Got Hit by a Truck and Woke Up to Find Myself in the Crazy Novel I Wrote Back in High School. And it’s filled with nothing but utterly unhinged male leads! There’s Kang Seonwoo, the top student with impeccable manners but secretly a psychopath. Cha Ihan, the rough-looking delinquent with puppy-like charm, yet an obsessive clingy maniac—only for the heroine. And Kim Chanseung, a promising national swimmer… who also happens to be a stalker! “What was I even thinking when I wrote this back in high school?!” I just need to stay far away from these lunatics and live quietly! But life never goes the way you want it to, does it…? “Let me know if there’s something you don’t like. I want to get closer to you.” A friend request from the psychopath. “Aren’t you too close to those boys? Isn’t that a bit much for someone so conservative?” Jealousy from the misdirected obsessive. “Here, take this.” And protein-flirting from the national swimmer-stalker. What is wrong with all of them?! Why are they like this with me?! Can I… actually survive here…?”


The World's Strongest Are Obsessed With Me manhwa returns for Season 3 on Tapas on December 12, 2025.

At 13, Dahlia Phesterose recalls her past life. She realizes she was born as the sister of the ultimate villain in a dating simulation game where the male leads, or "transcendents," all succumb to madness. Anticipating family ruin and personal peril from her estranged brother, Dahlia is desperate to escape. However, after luckily earning her terrifying brother's favor upon his return home, a new twist unfolds: she unwantedly captivates the world's strongest, the soon-to-be-mad male leads!


The Fantasie of a Stepmother manhwa returned from hiatus on Tapas on December 6 Source: Gingertorte Seven Seas has also licensed the webtoon under the title A Stepmother’s Märchen.

 (Not a confirmed reverse harem, but a reader commented: “That can’t be helped since in the novel she is very beautiful and becomes famous for her beauty too. There will be more guys, so just let it be. Actually, I think that's an important detail that helps the plot develop later.”)

They called her the Iron Widow. When her husband died, he left her to manage not only his vast holdings but also his four children. Young and inexperienced, Shuri nonetheless tried her best to raise them, despite their bitter attitude towards her. She is finally free to live her own life as her eldest son marries... only to find herself mysteriously reset to seven years ago—the night of her husband's funeral. Can Shuri find happiness with this second chance at a new destiny?

A Stepmother's Märchen (5 book series) https://amzn.to/3Y5FrqO

The Cafe Owner is an S-Class Guide manhwa ended on November 18, 2025, on Tappytoon. It has a “multiple love interests” tag on MU.

A newly awakened guide slash cafe owner fights an uphill battle trying to protect her business from a handsome yet explosive esper, who finds both her and her powers as addicting as caffeine. After seven long years in a fantasy world, I finally returned to the real world. Just when I thought I could enjoy some peace and quiet in normal life… Thanks to an Esper, my home vanished in an instant, leaving me with no choice but to scrape together what little money I had and start my own business. "Amazing! The highest-ranked S-Class Guide has appeared!" "Huh…? Me?" I was just planning to live quietly as a café owner, but somehow, I ended up becoming an S-Class Guide…?!


Disney Twisted-Wonderland The Comic: Episode of Savanaclaw manga will conclude in the February issue of Monthly G Fantasy. The manga is licensed by Viz Media. The mobile game has several other manga adaptations, and the anime is currently airing. A second season of Episode of Savanaclaw is in production, and the anime is planned to run for three seasons. 

(While not a reverse harem, Season 2 of Episode of Savanaclaw features a female protagonist though without romance so I’m filing this under “kinda reverse harem.”)

Stranded in the world of Twisted Wonderland, Yu must brave a magical school filled with ghosts, monsters, and uncooperative students! Yu finds herself at Night Raven College, a school for magic users, where the staff and students are getting ready for the interdormitory Spelldrive tournament. It sounds fun, but Yu soon learns that intensity, intrigue, and fierce competitiveness abound!

Light Novel Review: Culinary Chronicles of the Court Flower Vol. 1

  Culinary Chronicles of the Court Flower Vol. 1 - Story by Miri Mikawa Art by Kasumi Nagi Translated by afm  Setsu Rimi enters the imperial harem as a tribute to the emperor. She is a carefree girl with cooking as her sole passion. She meets the  cuisinologist/loveless scholar Su Shusei,  the emperor's bodyguard Shin Jotetsu; the beautiful eunuch Sai Hakurei, and the magnificent and sadist-like emperor Ryo Shohi. Disclaimer: A review copy was provided by the publisher.  The reason it got into my reverse harem radar is thanks to the last bit of " China-inspired fantasy story about a princess and her love for food surrounded by gorgeous men ." She's surrounded alright by gorgeous men. Let me arrange them on their level of interest to her. The main guy is Shusei. Period. Hakurei comes second who has taken interest in her but for different confusing reasons. The emperor is bent on getting her beheaded but she is his concubine so there's plenty of room for possible ...

Year in Review 2017

from Kenka Bancho Otome And just like that it's time for Year in Review again. While doing the review, I realized it was a slow year for reverse harem shows and movies. We only had four animes:  Kenka Bancho Otome: Girl Beats Boys, Code Realize, Ikemen Sengoku and Dance with Devils: Fortuna movie, which are all otome game adaptations. The rest of the Winter 2018 anime shows will be airing next year: Idolish 7 Dame X Prince, Yuuwaku Office Lover 2 and Gekijouban Tokimeki Restaurant ☆☆☆ MIRACLE 6. For dramas, we have Ani ni Aisaresugite Komattemasu jdrama, Ani ni Aisaresugite Komattemasu movie and Five which are manga adaptations. I'm not sure yet with Seizei Ganbare Mahou Shoujo Kurumi and Good Morning Call Our Campus Days. And oh yeah we have one American TV show, She's Gotta Have it.

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...

Anime Review: 7th Time Loop: The Villainess Enjoys a Carefree Life Married to Her Worst Enemy

7th Time Loop: The Villainess Enjoys a Carefree Life Married to Her Worst Enemy anime-12 episodes- based on a light novel  Rishe Irmgard Weitzner is now on her 7th life after always being killed in one way or another by Prince Arnold Hein. But on the 7th time loop, her enemy has taken an interest in her. This is a mix of my first impression here on the blog, mini-impressions, and mini-review from Patreon. And with some new insights.  7th Time Loop is entertaining and exciting.  It makes you think of the possibilities and the interconnections.  Her past six lives were summarized without being long-winded but just enough to pique our curiosity. The critical timing of each action or decision will lead to different outcomes or probable "romance routes". Or so I thought. No reverse harem romance but there's a bishonen for each life. Think Amnesia.  And this is by far, the fastest turn of events from a "love at first sight".  I've been avoiding saying this is my...

Light Novel Review: The Reincarnated Princess Spends Another Day Skipping Story Routes: Volume 1~ favorite light novel for the year!

  The Reincarnated Princess Spends Another Day Skipping Story Routes: Volume 1 by Bisu Art by: Yukiko Translated by: Tom Harris Rosemary Velfalt is reincarnated as a princess rival in the otome game, Welcome to the Hidden World, infamous for its terrible suitors and amazing side characters. She's now breaking event flags to avoid triggering routes. Disclaimer: A review copy was provided by the publisher.  With all the reincarnated villainess breaking flags in otome game and whatnot, this still offers something fresh and funny. Unlike in other isekai, Rosemary has her memory since infancy and she's not avoiding getting killed. It's in the goodness of her heart to help the main guys skip story routes. Her internal monologues are also amusing with her flair for dramatics and hysterics. B ut for someone insightful, she also suffers the same baka-ness inherent to heroines of being oblivious to all the love interests she's gaining. Its' a reverse harem light novel all rig...

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...
