This doesn't justify your stance at all.. Just cause a girl might be favorable in the MC's eye doesn't mean no feelings for the others exist. If feelings were strictly meant for one person, then cheating would never exist in this world. Godou literally is sharing feelings for both Erica and Lili at the moment, doesn't matter that feelings for erica might be stronger, point still stands that both are in his eye right now. The thing about fiction is that Harem can be made to work, ANYTHING can be made to work in fiction.

I agree with you Dengar that its usually unbelievable, but a GOOD harem series creates a case where it is believable and makes sense. In Sekirei for example, the MC's girls are literally bonded to his DNA, and in turn becomes attracted to him, sometimes without even knowing why themselves. Or like in Tenchi Muyo where the Harem presents political benefits since the MC is a important politcal figure, and different nations want one of their own married to him to make bonds for their nation. So in fiction, its not common, but has been done.

It doesn't need to end like that, problem is that because Harems have been basically following the Love Hina formula, this is what everyone now expects of the harem, who will the MC choose instead of wondering how can he balance multiple girls after him.
