Heyho,

I'm desperately looking for harem romance stories without any really sad stuff (death of loved ones, rejection, separation etc.). Do you maybe have any recommendations? =D

I am fine with some drama if everyone gets a happyend together later. I also don't mind if the harem romance needs some time to develop

I don't mind r-18 stuff, but i don't need it either, i really prefer focus on the (fluffy) relationship tho.
E.g i really enjoyed "Spirit Cultivation", on the other hand "Dual Cultivation" isn't my thing at all (most sex without any feelings/relationship etc.) :x

Would be really nice if you would have one or two recommendations for me about what i could try =D

Edit: If you're looking for something to read yourself:
I've made a list with everything that was recommended here, in post 56. But i'm always happy about more recommendations and will try to update the list sometimes, if something new was mentioned.

    Hey, this is my book and I think it is exactly what you're looking for. I update 8 times a week. Below are the link and the synopsis.

    Poor Man Reborn
    Introducing Dave Unglin, a 42 years old homeless man that has lived a life in poverty. The God Fate crossed him at every turn and kept him from success. now sitting in an alley and about to die from lung cancer he didn't even know he had, Dave prays to anyone that was listening to give him another chance.

    Two gods heard this plea, for they had been watching and waiting. Destiny and Transmigration had been waiting for this moment to snatch up Fate's plaything.

    As Dave gives his last dying breathes, he hopes his next life is better.

    when Dave dies the goddesses take him to a new world and explain his new leveling up system, but when he opens his eye he realizes a horrible fact.

    Dave, now known as Snaggle Tooth, is a poor street urchin with no home.

    Reborn as a poor kid.

    But with his new leveling system Snaggle Tooth would make his way in this new world and maybe work on a new name.

    Born into the digital world of reborn, children terminally I'll are able to live out their lives infinitely. Each lifetime a winner is awarded a single wish, in a constant change environment who will come out on top?

    Hello there, I'm going to be a little shameless and recommend you the novel I'm writting.
    It's fantasy in a modern setting, heavly inspired in anime and light novels and of course it has a harem with "fluffy" moments.
    I will leave you the link so give it a read when you got time =)

    P.S: If you see any mistakes while reading, I'm really sorry, it's because english isn't my first language.
    Have a nice and wonderfull day!

      Hey,
      Honestly, i didn't expect that there would be only self promotions. But i kinda get it and i don't blame anyone, its super hard to start. But please try to be on topic at least :x

      I mean, from all the recommendations/self promotions, there was only two stories with harem tag... And beside the last novel (without harem tag) they all had less then 50 chapters. Its really hard to actually judge a story after only ~30 chapters.

      After all, only Shionokami novel looked kinda interesting, but again, after barley 30 chapters its hard to tell :x

        Heyho,

        I finished reading "Endbringer" Shionokami and also read a couple chapters "I got summoned to another world, then married a yandere!" Sixth.

        Both had some good moments. Honestly, Yandere Wife had to much... mhh... "boring" Yandere... everything was only about her beeing Yandere and nothing else and i really had a hard time getting into it.

        Shionokami I actually enjoyed it quite a bit. There are MANY anime cliche but the story was kinda fun to read. I just hope that it won't stick too much with the japanese setting of a super dense mc and the "harem" setting only resulting in "many girls like him" and nothing else. Since there are "only" 32 chapters (they are little longer tho), i can't really say more about it jet.

          Nebel
          Thanks! I'm happy that you liked it! Well, I will of course, try to not let it become too cliche, so I hope that you stay around for it!

          Btw. i'm still happy about more recommendations and/or self promotion =D

          Just try to keep in mind:
          - Actually harem/polygamy setting
          - Nothing really sad (death of potential harem members and stuff like that is no-go)
          - For new novels it would still be nice to have 50k+ words to actually have something to read & judge.

          Thanks =)

            Nebel I don't usually plug my work since it's R-18 and the MC is despicable at the early chapters before his character development but seeing you still looking for something that have that setting, you can try Stealing Spree.

            Nebel Hmmm, recently I've been reading this one
            https://www.webnovel.com/book/part-time-star--full-time-dad_13532459105151605
            So maybe if you want to try it too.....
            I think its "fluffy", and its also Harem. 🥰

            Oh, this one is also okay if you could just think incest is okay since its fiction (I also disagree with incest IRL), and MC (at least the inside soul) is not really the girls family, while his body are of course their family.
            https://www.webnovel.com/book/illicit-relationship_14608457405930205
            The super duper fluffy parts comes after you manage to keep on reading after they start the (incest) relationship. So perhaps if you really dont mind, just try reading all the free chapters before giving judgement? 😅

              Thanks a lot for those recommendations! =D

              @Dyrem Mhh, i've read the first chapter. I wouldn't mind it if he stole those girls because their boyfriends treated them badly or stuff like that. But as you said, he is just despicable and i felt already bad and disgusted by him after the first chapter. So probably not a novel i would enjoy. But since you explained quite clearly what i could expect, i am still grateful for the recommendation.

              @Avidfan no problem =D "fluffy" is actually the most important thing. But i really enjoy if other nice characters/cute girls also getting part of the "family" so i really prefer harem settings :x

              GegeSadewa I don't mind incest tag at all. IRL i would be quite worried when they plan to have kids etc. but beside that... in animes i often hope for a happyend for the sister-character as well :x I've read 6 chapters of illicit... was quite annoyed at the start (seemed like everything was only about sex/desire)... but at the end of chapter 6 i have hopes, that there actually will be fluff later on :x BUT honestly, i am not such a huge fan of the "milf" setting and him just beeing horny about all the older woman around him...
              Regarding part time dad; Not a huge fan of the setting with a child... BUT i guess it could be really cute and maybe it really has great harem building thanks to that... so i'll definitely will give it a try later =D

              RazorIsSharp mhh, i guess i will wait till you get approved ;)

              Again, thanks for all those recommendations!
              And if you have anything else that may be fitting, i'm always happy to read more xD

                Nebel Yeah, for Illicit we have to plow through the first 30 chapters or more, but after that, I think its quite all right.
                I actually kinda like MILF, especially if they even could be sweet and felt even younger than their counterpart. But, to each of their own I guess....
                Thanks for at least willing to try and read more of them. 😉
                I may not be the author of those, but plenty of story need more readers with nice attitude like some of us all. 😅

                  GegeSadewa If its fitting with the genre, i am willing to try everything xD
                  I am just REALLY bad with sad stuff, so i try to find some spoilers if any potential harem members die, get rejected etc. and really avoid anything that have stuff like that.
                  With the harem setting... i just really like it if its fluffy and all the "nice/cute" girls around the mc can get a happyend together. I'm more into the fluff of romance and beeing a family as well as the harem building/reasoning itself. I could live without all the sex stuff, but nearly all the time its kinda related and i don't really mind it and/or can skip it

                  Ohh, btw. i also started reading your other recommendation "part time star full time dad" and it was quite fun. If you read the part above you can image that i wished for some more romance instead of the ...+ relationship thingy thats going on atm. and the girls only "accepting" instead of caring for each other. But its kinda realistic and there is room for more so i really looking forward to it. BUT sadly the author isn't really consisted with the releases xD

                  And again, if anyone knows other stories (platform doesn't matter), i'm really happy about every recommendation; As long as every girl gets a happyend (haremsetting, not too sad) i'm happy and would give it a chance =D

                    [unknown] Btw. i continued reading Illicit (since i already running low on alternatives again xD ) and managed to get into chapter 40... but its not really my thing. Not a huge fan of the mother thing, but i could deal with it. But nearly 50% of the chapters are sex and he is to much of a playboy for my taste. I know what you meant with more romance and i totally get were you're coming from... but... as i just said, the romance is to forced, to playboy oriented... it only feels like he want to sleep with them and is sweet-talking just for that, nothing else

                      I think I have the perfect stories for you, but both of them are mangas. The first one is called "The 100 Girlfriends Who Really, Really, Really, Really, Really Love You". I know that the title sounds ridiculous but trust me, this one is a gem and is exactly what you are looking for. It has A LOT of fluff, every girl in the harem gets a lot of attention and is never forgotten. I would recommend you to read it on mangahub because of some problems with the scanlation group many sites don't have all the chapters and mangahub has all of them. The second one is called "Kanojo mo Kanojo" and is also very sweet. Both of them are real harems, have a lot of fluff, and are really funny. I really recommend you to check them out!

                        Leporidere Thanks! Overall i highly prefer flow text and mangas aren't really my thing. But those two really look cute and since i don't have much else to read i'll definitely gonna try them!
                        (And thanks for the source recommendation as well =D )

                          OK, to start this one isn't fuffy and there is a part or two that get you excited. but it's a pretty fun story.

                          it's only got 10 chapter's so far, but I post new ones every day along with my other harem book which I'll post below that is at 50 chapters so far. Hopefully, you're not looking for something PG either lol.

                            Restricted/R-18/Sexual content/Some Strong Language

                            Welcome to Reborn! A place of infinite lifetimes in worlds and planes thought only to be places drawn from imagination. Players that enter this world are children stricken with a particular terminal disease and given a chance to be reborn an infinite amount of times, participating in new challenges and systems every lifetime.

                            Not everything is perfect, though. Reborn's creators hide the fact that players enter as NPC's and without having a supporting god, they will continue to get lost in the flow of time, losing all memories after each life. For some, they are forced to live in poverty or worse.

                            "Gods": Players that have won or been on the winning party at least 20 times or been granted godship through a wish.

                            Dave, one of the thousands of players, is a 42 years old homeless man with his memories wiped and has lived this life in poverty. One of the many gods that have transcended, Fate, stood to cross him at every turn and kept him from success. Now sitting in an alley and about to die, Dave prays to anyone listening to give him another chance.

                            Two gods heard this plea, for they had been watching and waiting. Destiny and Transmigration had been waiting for this moment to snatch up Fate's plaything.

                            As Dave gives his last dying breathes, he hopes his next life is better.

                            When Dave dies, the goddesses take him to a new world and explain his new leveling up system, but he realizes a horrible fact when he opens his eye.

                            Dave is a poor street urchin with no home. Reborn as a poor kid.

                            Memories of his previous life are all he has to go on, but Destiny guides him to reconnect with strangers from past lives and start him on another journey to save more lost souls. Slowly the memories with each woman reconnect and help Dave get back the experiences he lost while forming new connections and relationships along the way.

                            Join Dave, Lavender, Tilly, and all the rest on their adventure through worlds and as they meet new friends and experiences new systems!

                              Nebel
                              Here are some that I read and can recommend -
                              0 - Against Heaven's will -the continuation of - Spirit Cultivation
                              1 - Psychic Inventor in Cultivation World - flirting mostly and later++ things take a turn to romance
                              2 - In Naruto: Reborn with Talent = fanfic worth the read, only 46 chapters atm
                              3 - Prime Vampire = good plot, writing could improve but a good read + another work of the author is decent
                              4 - Trash Techniques are Actually Pretty Efficient = A comedic tone with the story that is a bit quirky, late harem
                              5 - Nine Venoms Sect Founder - good writing and plot, can be a bit confusing at times - ~150 chapt - late harem it seems
                              6 - Shadow - Unique cultivation + harem story, anti-hero - skim through first ~15 chapters to enjoy - medium/late romance improves as you read
                              7 - Perverted Otherworlder = comedy, fun, cultivation and shameless mc
                              8 - Yin & Yang Pleasures of Cultivation - Interesting story, plot and good writing
                              9 - The Romantic Cultivator - MC is funny, keep going in the beginning, the plot, story and characters are worth the read
                              10 - Fourth Prince's Debauchery starts off with r-18 leads to plot + author's other work (Science/magic - an unnecessary tragedy, in the beginning, is good after)
                              11 - The Sinful Life of The Emperor - a great read, MC 'steals' other's women, you will be happy and laughing most of the time
                              12 - A Cliché Multiverse Story - good fanfic story you don't need to have much previous knowledge of the worlds
                              13 - Stealing Spree - MC steals other's women there is a plot and generally with positive vibes, the start of the story is not very happy
                              14 - Unrivaled System - I read a while back, I remember enjoying it not sure how the r18 and romance in the harem is balanced.

                                    Hey,
                                    honestly, i don't know if anyone is interested about my opinion about a novel that was recommended, but i just like to give some feedback :x

                                    SecretWolf thanks for this super long list and even with some nice explanation! I thought about starting with Prime Vampire, Psychic Inventor and Romantic Cultivator.
                                    I didn't had much time this week and only managed to read Prime Vampire to some degree. The story is quite promising, but god i hate this mc sooo much. He only cares about his owne pleasure, fucks every girl the first time they meet and treats them SO bad in bed... i really was disgusted by him. Really sad because the story could have been quite good.
                                    I think i will try Romantic Cultivator next, i've read that the mc is quite dense. Normally i don't like that, it can be super annoying. But atm i really need some distraction from this selfish disgusting guy (MC Prime Vampire) so i just hope that the mc here is the "shy-dense" type with some cute romance, and not the "stupid-like-a-potato-dense" MC xD

                                    Nattychris_22 Hey, thanks but i think that's nothing for me. As i said above, i really prefer harem settings with several interesting characters that all somehow end up together happily. So yea... additionally only 12 chapters and annoying kids are another thing i don't really like :x

                                      Nebel

                                      Girl here too. I’ve read Romantic Cultivator. The story is actually fluffy and fun if you are a girl. It isnt because the MC is dense. He just set his sight on a girl that he had a romantic relationship in the past (this isnt a spoiler cos u get to read this very soon) but he doesnt trust her when he had met her again because
                                      ....(this part u got to find out urself. Because there is a mystery here).

                                      The MC is actually quite smart and caution if you reading from a neutral perspective. But although he tries to be smart but the heroines are smarter than him sometimes so he got outwitted by them. I think this part causes some male readers ego to be hurted because they cant stand smarter heroines. They may think they r smarter but i bet none is smart to solve the mystery.

                                      Story actually has many plot twists, touching and fluffy movenents. It is a harem story that girls will enjoy 😍🥰

                                        Nebel
                                        I am sure you will not be disappointed with Romantic Cultivator. MC is dense 5 Percent of the time and acts dense 15 Percent of the time, the rest of the time he's pretty smart. The story makes me smile and laugh most of the time. If you are worried about him being the passive type don't be.
                                        Thanks for the feedback it is good and looking forward to more :)
                                        Some of my suggestion might have been based on my current progress.. sorry.

                                          Leporidere Nebel
                                          Oh yeah, almost forgot about manga too. Well, since we are in a novel oriented site, but there are also some nice harem manga that we could recommend ;
                                          "The World God Only Knows" a manga you should try to read it.
                                          Another one perhaps the "classic" manga, Love Hina?

                                            GegeSadewa
                                            I don't think he would enjoy those two mangas. He specifically asked for a real harem where the MC accepts all the girls and neither of those two has a harem ending. "Love Hina" isn't even a harem, it's just a romcom and I also think that he wouldn't enjoy the girls constantly beating up the male lead for no reason. As for "The World God Only Knows" I also wouldn't recommend that one because the majority of the heroines always forget about the MC which makes all the romantic development between the MC and them pointless. It also doesn't help that the majority of the heroines are never mentioned again after they are "conquered".

                                              Nebel
                                              I actually have a few more mangas to recommend if you want. You can also try Umi no Misaki and Kekkon Yubiwa Monogatari, those two are also good in my opinion. Also if you want me to recommend you novels I could recommend you highschool dxd and mushouku tensei if you haven already read them. You can download the volumes on jnovels and read them.

                                                Leporidere Haha, I guess I also already forgot what the op ask for. So it must be harem end, and its a fluffy happy harem, not sad or tragic.
                                                Hmmm, kinda difficult since its also some ideal criteria of harem that I would also love it. If we could found it. Especially the harem end since some of our suggestion is not ended yet, or already end but not the end that we hope for.

                                                  I'm just going to clarify somethings that you might have misunderstood, Illicit relationships definitely start out R-18 heavy, but for a new author who doesn't exactly have their own style yet they can tend to focus too much on one aspect in the beginning, you have to give them time to find their groove(almost everyone is clumsy at first when they try something for the first time), the plot eventually starts moving forward so just wait for it. In terms of incest with the mother, you probably realize this but he was a young man who transmigrated into the body of another young man, even if she is the new bodies mother biologically for him she can also be considered a beautiful older woman, even though he got the bodies previous owner's memories there is still some disconnect between his mind and body. When it comes to Prime Vampire I didn't really get too far, but a decent portion of the girls where I got had known the MC before, while what you say may be the case it is also a fact that there are girls who knew him prior to the beginning of the series and the author plans to write something to address all these concerns(he had something before but it wasn't exactly what most people are looking for), so again give him some time and some relationships you consider forced might make sense.

                                                  For my recommendation, prime originator somewhat fits what you want, relationships start out forced but again that is a new author not knowing what he is doing, the girls added after are done well, even then those previous girls get some development later on. I want to say there is no separation but it is one of those things where it depends on the person in question. Sometimes the MC will leave the women behind but it isn't like he is abandoning them, he remains on the same world but an example is he basically goes on an underground exploration looking for resources and shit right under his family while they stay back home with their families to cultivate in safety(also it isn't like they're just staying home using his hard-earned resources, instead he actually wants to go on these dangerous explorations, they hate that him leaving and taking these risks but he needs to do it to grow stronger and they respect his wishes and trust in his abilities).

                                                  Another recommendation is The way of the Dao.

                                                    Hey,
                                                    Again: Thanks a lot for all this input. I'll try to respond to everything here, if i forgot something, please let me know :x

                                                    RachelRuth maybe, as you said yourself, it hasn't many chapters jet to say anything. I'll try to remember it and if its progressed a little i may give it a try. IF the genre is fitting then.

                                                    Fanjo Thanks! After your explanation i started to read Romantic Cultivator two days ago. I am around chapter 58 now and i totally agree with your opinion. I was slightly annoyed by the "forced drama" of him not telling the girls who he is because of his stupid beard. BUT i was really happy that every woman figured out who he was. Overall i really like that all the girls are smarter/stronger as him, but at the same time he isn't totally useless/dump either. For the future i just hope for little more fluff and more time together (together with the girls, because atm he goes from place to place, always "finding" a new woman, but the other girls are left behind).
                                                    Really looking forward to it tho =D

                                                    SecretWolf as i said above, yeah i really enjoy Romantic Cultivator xD thanks. And regarding the other novels, don'T worry. I just have some problems when girls are treated badly. I KINDA can deal with it if they aren't really well developed because if i couldn't i'd have even less to read, but if they just feel like "pleasure dolls" and treaded badly i get really pissed and can't read stuff like that at all.

                                                    GegeSadewa Leporidere BoobLover is mostly right, i highly prefer harem setting because i just like the "family" side of it and everyone being able to stay together happily.
                                                    Regarding Manga general; So far i haven't read any mangas since i always preferred flow text. If you have any long and fitting mangas i'm really happy about any recommendations. But it would be great if you could give me some key marks what the manga is about and what i can expect xD

                                                    Regarding Highschool DxD... i am not such a big fan of the mc... super pervert but at the same time also super dense and not really accepting any romantic approaches at all... supper annoying japanese archetype. And I already know Mushouku Tensei

                                                    FunnyBuns Regarding the first part: Let me split Illicit and Prime Vampire in two different parts.
                                                    Illicit: I was told to read past chapter 30 and i actually even did read into chapter 50 or so because at that time i had nothing else to read. Overall i understood the Idea of the novel and even the romance was... "ok". It wasn't only sex, he cared for the girls at least to some degree and the girls had different personality's. The only thing that was just "bad" (personal opinion) was, that the incest relationship wasn't questioned at all. I get why he wouldn't mind. But at least his mother and aunt would have some thoughts of it. I don't say that they should come to the result that its bad and stop it. But there should be some explanation about how they think, why they're doing it or ANYTHING like that.
                                                    But overall at the end i dropped the story because it just wasn't my cup. The only thing i thought was cute was, that his mother and aunt care so much about each other. That was fluffy. Beside that it was just to much "fuck boy" attitude and "capturing/wooing girls".

                                                    Regarding Prime Vampire: First and foremost: I was really disgusted by how the mc treated girls only for his pleasure. He was ruthless and treated them just terrible, wanting to just fuck them as soon as possible and as rough as possible while all of them never had sex before... Thats just a disgusting character that i really dislike.
                                                    BESIDE that, the novel had several other big problems. But as you said, new author and they all can improve. I actually wrote quite a long and detailed review after the last chapter i've read. And i didn't put it in the official review section, because i didn't want to give a very negative rating. I just wanted to point out my personal opinion and actually had a short chat with the author.
                                                    But i'm quite sure i will never pick up that novel again. I was really disgusted by the mc. Treating girls like that, only caring about his own pleasure... i have a hard time dealing with this attitude... i require more fluff ;)

                                                    So in short: I can deal with a rough start and lagging development of characters early on. But if the mc only cares about himself and treating girls badly and/or using them only for sex, i don't want the girl end up with him (because i personally can't imagine that they will find happiness with him) and then its pointless to continue reading.

                                                    Regarding your recommendations: After what i said above, what kind of rough start has Prime Originator?
                                                    What you said about separation; Separation for me is more like "lost contact for many yeas, not sure if ever see again" thing. Its ok as backstory, but if its occurring in the novel itself, i dislike it a lot. I prefer if the "group" stays together and spend time with each other, but its fine if he leaves sometimes to do "stuff" AS LONG as the other girls don't fade away (those harems were new girls join every minute and at the same time most of the "old" girls are never mentioned again really suck).
