YulongYuXianTaiyin Makes sense.
No offence again but I did not realise I had to spell it out for you. I meant don't you dare say that CCG would be good with a harem. Dedicated fans won't like to hear it, I know because I am one and on discord forums, we have always boasted that CCG is not like those harem filled empty plot xianxia stories.
You are right that I should not have assumed what was tailor made for you. However by suggesting that CCG will be good with a harem what else was I meant to think about your taste in stories. I mean if bread and butter isn't your thing, would you go around telling people to eat it. Your language deliberately lead me to that assumption but you are correct, I should have taken my time to think further. I am not a D, whatever that means.
Once again, no offense.

YulongYuXianTaiyin Harem isn't my thing, but I'd not tell people to stop reading them because it's mentally unhealthy.

Good Harems don't exist, huh. Interesting take there.

I don't read much here, I'm an author only, but I've read or watched enough anime/manga to know, that there are actual good harem stories.

One of my absolute favorite stories ever, is Highschool DxD. Romance makes sense, even the reason Issei (MC) is stupid to recognise that these women like him has a (more or less) logical reasoning behind it.
He starts out as a perverted nobody, so yeah, the entire boob thing is just fanservice, and without it the story would be just as amazing (minus for some of my favorite plot points), but that's not the same with the harem reasons.

#SPOILER INCOMING

Here's a generic breakdown for why it makes sense:
Rias - Issei was the first person to look at her as a girl, rather than the sister to literally Satan.
Akeno - Issei was the first person (after her parents, plot goes into it, I don't wanna spoil much), to accept her as a half-breed, which has made her super-concious about it, throughout her life.
Asia - he literally saves her life.
Xenovia - she's sort of the weird one here, but even her part is relatively reasonable. He saved Asia's life, which was kind of a big thing for her, as well as he's more or less just a test subject for her, to 'mate'.
Koneko - Once again, the whole acceptance theme of literally the entire story.
Ravel - again, sort of a weird one, and I can't really reason, as I didn't read the entire light novel yet, but again, he managed to pull her brother out of a really shitty place, so I guess it kinda counts.

#END OF SPOILERS

But then again, Issei sort of chose one for himself, and he looks at the rest of them as really great friends. He literally wants to be the Harem King (mind you, more than likely a reference to One Piece), and he does that, but he doesn't use them.

In my opinion, Highschool DxD should be the format harem stories should take.

Yeah, if you dislike harem, it's perfectly fine. No need to turn it into a personal attack against someone who likes it. Liking harem is all right too. Chill, bro.

What if the harem is like the ottoman/osman/usman empire harem, doing it because god's allows it and you need heirs? Nothing about lust, but more about political. The women will be secluded from the world, when they want to go outside then the husband need to guard them.
