It may sounds like a joke but I actually agree with Master Assassin that the MC in most harem and reverse harem shows are nothing more than a placeholder or a cardboard cutout with a "place your face here" hole. However shows like K-On and Kimi to Boku proves us that viewers don't even need that placeholder in first place. That's why I calling them as "virtual boyfriend/girlfriend" shows.
Kimi to Boku.? A series that actually gives each leading male a love interest along with development in their relation ship, be it gradual progress or bittersweet ends? Yeah, I'd suggest looking for another example there.
