I like Sekirei

The premise screams “one male human romantically bonded with many female nonhumans”—in other words, bog-standard harem romance. Then we meet a female human who bonds to a cute male nonhuman. Soon we have straight, gay, lesbian, and bisexual humans bonding to male, female, and intersex nonhumans. Sometimes they’re monogamous, sometimes they’re polyamorous, and sometimes their bond isn’t romantic in nature. The story focus is still on the one guy with many girls, but I like the sense of a larger world in which all kinds of relationships can exist.

I once read a gamebook called Give Yourself Goosebumps: The Deadly Experiments of Dr. Eeek. There’s a point where you get to nope out of everything and go home. If you do, the narrator spends a page lecturing you on how boring you are and how much you suck. So I flipped the page back to see what happens if you decide not to go home. A gorilla rips your head off. This is why I choose to be boring.

What is even with manga’s insistence that its heroes never have sex? I once read a manga where the MCs are married, they truly love each other, and the only reason they haven’t settled down to spend the rest of their lives together is that they need to save the world first. The MMC keeps rejecting the FMC’s overtures to have sex, even though he seems to want it, and it’s never really explained why.
