Some people think you can't have too much of a good thing, and that this extends to romantic and/or sexual partners. If one is good, then two is twice as good, and five is better still! The harem seeker is a character who is openly trying to date and/or marry multiple Love Interests as part of a scheme to have lots of attractive partners all to the themself. The seeker has a different goal from the Casanova Wannabe, who aspires to become The Casanova by sleeping with a lot of different people with no commitment, and are also different from a cheater, who is in a nominally exclusive relationship but actually sleeps around without their partner's consent. The harem seeker's goal is to keep multiple partners in the long term, and have them explicitly agree to share. The seeker will typically be characterized as a Lovable Sex Maniac or a Chivalrous Pervert. This character can be female, but is more likely to be male; the assumption is that All Men Are Perverts, and that this character will reflect the desires of a male audience. A harem seeker can be portrayed either positively or negatively, depending on whether having a harem is depicted as a worthy goal, and depending on whether this character has a realistic chance of success. If having multiple partners is depicted as desirable, a harem seeker with the skill to succeed might get involved in Polyamory or even achieve a Marry Them All ending. This can be Wish-Fulfillment for audience members who fantasize about having a harem but consider it unattainable to them in real life, and who get to live vicariously through the fictional harem seeker. In contrast, an unsuccessful harem seeker is likely to be depicted as a comedic loser who doesn't know their own limitations. If the work depicts getting a harem as an immature or unrealistic goal, then giving up on it and deciding to focus on getting just one partner may be a sign of Character Development. A harem seeker who isn't the protagonist may be relegated to the role of comic relief in a manner similar to the Casanova Wannabe. The Harem seeker can be used as the protagonist of a Harem Genre work or a Romance Game that has a Marry Them All route, since it gives the seeker an obvious motivation to interact with the different love interests and get into the kinds of risque situations that the audience wants to see. On the other hand there's a certain fear by creators that such a character might come across as crass or unrelatable to the audience, and a harem seeker protagonist who's poorly written or given no characterization beyond this trait will just become flat or annoying. Nevertheless, any harem seeker protagonist who manages to have some depth or whose escapades prove fun to watch can seem like a refreshing change from the somewhat worn-out formula of setting up a decent guy with an Unwanted Harem of pushy girls so that all sorts of contrived Accidental Pervert situations ensue. Polyamory is a related concept, but there are some differences. Not everyone who ends up in a polyamorous relationship is necessarily a harem seeker to begin with, and a harem seeker might initially care more about the sexual than romantic aspects of having multiple partners, though this can change with character development. A harem also tends to be defined as a bunch of concubines or spouses gathered around one central figure to whom all the others are bonded, while the term polyamory is broad enough to include relationships that are more evenly balanced and in which any member, and not just the central figure, is allowed to form romantic bonds with more than one person. |

The Rising of the Shield Hero: This is one of Motoyasu's defining traits, and a major, personal reason why he fails so hard as a hero. His main concern is getting with every cute girl he can, to the point of only doing the bare minimum of his duties as a Hero. He's even willing to ignore the full context of situations just to justify to himself that he's "doing the right thing" like when he forcibly tries to separate Raphtalia and Filo from Naofumi, and doesn't even bother to hide his true intentions when he does so. It doesn't help that this also resulted in several gold diggers (one of whom is Malty) being on his team solely for their looks, and having no problem just sitting on the sidelines and letting him do all the work while only tossing in a spell or two as "contribution". It really shouldn't be surprising than Naofumi and his party wind up defeating Motoyasu's in a Curb-Stomp Battle he once again forced the former into, or that the latter's party ultimately abandons him when things look dire (the Spirit Turtle incident). | |

A Certain Magical Index: When Kuroko hears rumors that her beloved "onee-sama" Mikoto has clones running around, she gleefully fantasizes about constructing a harem of 108 Mikotos. Note that there are actually around ten thousand of the clones (exactly 9,969 clones who are biologically the same age as the original Mikoto, 1 who's younger, and an uncertain number who are biologically older), a fact that might literally blow Kuroko's mind if she learned of it. Mikoto, for her part, has quite wisely kept their existence hidden from Kuroko. And the issue is only aggravated when Kuroko met Mikoto's mother. | |

The Power of Seven focuses on Harry having to become this during his sixth year after he learns about his status as a horcrux, as Hermione finds a ritual that will purge the horcrux from him if he forms a soul bond with seven witches. In the course of the fic, he bonds with Ginny, Hermione, Luna, Demelza Robbins, Susan Bones, Katie Bell and Fleur Delacour in that order. | |

Beavis And Butthead's Casanova Wannabe behavior often ventures into this. In the episode "Impotence," Beavis asks "Which of these lucky girls will be fit to join my harem?" in a faux Arabic accent, while Butt-head imagines himself in a parody of The Brady Bunch where he lives with three women in the episode "Dream On." | |

Date A Live plays with this. Shido Itsuka learns that he has the power to drain a Spirit's powers into himself, rendering them harmless, but they have to fall in love with him and share True Love's Kiss with him for it to work. While a bit uncomfortable with this, he wants to keep the world safe. Thus, he has to work hard to get all of them to fall in love with him and keep them all happy, since they get their powers back and tend to go on rampages when they get upset. Complicating matters is the fact that many of them get jealous of the other harem members. | |

Cuuko from Nyaruko: Crawling with Love! develops into this. At first she's a Psycho Lesbian Stalker with a Crush for Nyarko, and plays Shipper with an Agenda to get Mahiro (the guy Nyarko actually loves) out of the way. She gradually warms to Mahiro thanks to his being a genuinely nice person, and by the time of the second season, Cuuko's plan has changed to "I bear Nyarko's child, the boy bears mine". She later tells him "My party system supports up to four people." | |

Ken from Student Council's Discretion is pretty much the poster child of this genre. His stated objective from the beginning is that he is building a harem from the student council.note His case is somewhat unique however, as he sincerely believes that the "Harem Ending" is the ending where everyone gets to live Happily Ever After, and he's pursuing this to make them happy as thanks for saving him. | |

Sougo/Ohma Zi-O is one of the more justified examples in Temporal Anomaly. Not only is he trying to Take Over the World, he's also trying to save it from the Flower that each of the Intoners hold within themselves and will eventually grow big enough to destroy everything if allowed to feaster long enough in each sister. So, by seducing each Intoner and bringing them into his harem, Sougo is then able to get them to give up their piece of the Flower that he is then able to destroy one piece at a time. | |

When he tries this at the end of the competition with Hose, all the girls get upset at him.

Mass Effect 2 has a dark example in Ronald Taylor, Jacob's father. His crew crash-landed on a planet where the fauna caused brain damage and after the ensuing power struggle he ended up using said fauna to keep the women docile as his personal harem while enforcing his authority through his control of the security mechs. Upon finally confronting him both Shepard and Taylor treat him with complete disgust for attempting to live in a "juvenile fantasy". | |

Iono the Fanatics provides a female version with Iono, who has succeeded to the tens of thousands of haremettes level. That's an order of magnitude more than Solomon. It's strongly implied her country has been reduced to a Ruritania mainly due to the cost of supporting so many free-loading lesbian love-slaves, to say nothing of all the women she's removed from her own populace to serve her as haremettes. And she has a place in her heart for each one of them, including the women she made promise with years ago. | |

In the novel continuity of Queen's Blade, this trait is given to the much sluttier Nanael, who wants to bang every guy she can get, including little boys like Rana, despite her being an angel — and, more importantly, despite her being openly bigoted against humans in that continuity. | |

Maken-ki!: Takeru enrolled at Tenbi Academy because it used to be an all-girl school. But since it's turned Co-Ed, the student body is predominantly female; making it his dream come true. So he's signed up for all the eye candy and as much female attention as he can get. Jigoku secretly aspired to attain godhood so he could use his power to make all women of his choosing submit to him; including Haruko and Love Espada. But Yan-Min kills him during the climax of chapter 97, before he gets the chance. |

Surprisingly, Rito Yuki in the To Love Ru fic Rito and the Harem Project goes from falling in love with just Haruna to actually developing feelings for the other girls in his life too, and building a harem because he wants to honor their love for him and make them all happy. This includes Lala, Run, Risa, Kyouko, Nemesis, Rin, Mea, Yami, Nana, Yui and Momo. | |

Is It Wrong to Try to Pick Up Girls in a Dungeon?: Bell's original goal was to, well, pick up girls in a dungeon. He gives up on this goal at the start of the series after falling head over heels in love with Aiz Wallenstein. Predictably, several girls start falling for him after this and he's none the wiser. | |

Rose from Brother Complex is a variation of this as she's actually one of the love interests and is okay with having this for Jack. Her reason for this is that she doesn't want him to leave her behind again, and thought if she gathered girls like her (i.e. turned Mimi and Eclaire into tall busty studs like herself) that he would stay. | |

High School D×D: The series messes with this. The reason Issei is so quick to adjust after his First-Episode Resurrection is that Rias tells him he can get his own harem. He then somehow manages to miss the fact that most of the girls he interacts with fall for him. Then we figure out that the reason he doesn't realize is that being killed by his first girlfriend (long story) left him with huge self-esteem issues. Issei also defies the usual attitude of a Harem Seeker. His perverted self-indulgent babbling is starkly at odds with the vast respect he actually has for any woman he meets, and when Issei does meet a successful devil with a harem of his own, the way he so callously treats the women around him makes Issei furious. Issei's father is Happily Married, but admits that he's a little jealous of his son, because he tried and failed to get a harem when he was Issei's age. |

Iris is the one who plays this role among the protagonists in Pokémon Reset Bloodlines. Unusually for this trope, it's mostly due to her being raised by a family of Dragon Pokémon, so she doesn't know (at first) that monogamy is the norm for humans, and even after learning it, it doesn't dissuade her one bit. It's first shown when she asks Misty directly if she's attracted to Ash, and makes it clear she's more than willing to share him. She's later shown trying to get Anabel on board with her idea, and while she's reluctant at first, by the time the Indigo League rolls both her and Misty are willing to let one another have dates with Ash without feeling jealous, and seem ready to accept Serena into the fold when she inevitably joins their group. | |

Durarara!!: Walker might qualify. In one scene, he rescues a girl from some thugs that kidnapped her. He sets the thugs on fire while rambling about being an anime hero and wanting a harem ending. Introduced later on in the series is Rokujou Chikage, a man who's actually reasonably successful in his goal of having multiple girlfriends at once. He owes his success to being open and polite about it, putting entirely too much effort into making women happy regardless of whether he expects to sleep with them, and packing something special below the belt. And Masaomi is always gushing about polygamy, and at the very least he had a crush on Anri while still being hung up on Saki. |

Sekirei has this as a semi-common set up with the Sekirei Plan. With a hundred and eight (mostly) Action Girl Human Aliens running around, having more than one per 'team' is ideal where possible. Protagonist Minato only 'seeks' girls who either come to him of their own free will, or who appear in his dreams establishing a connection between the two of them first, though there are others whose methods are broader in reach and more forceful in approach. | |

Phantom Quest Corp.: Ayaka accuses Bosco of being one when she realizes his tea shop specifically caters to late teen-early 20's female clientele only. Which he explains isn't the case at all. The reason he caters to that particular age group is because older women are less likely to be virgins; adding that it'd become increasingly difficult for vampires to find any in the modern era. | |

Frasier: This happened twice here. The first time it was Frasier himself, as he managed to get three different women's numbers at the same benefit party he hosted at his place. He scheduled each date one evening after the other and deliberately tried to date them all at more or less the same time, but this was when his father Martin was knee-deep into his relationship with Sherry, whose gabby tendencies torpedoed at least the first two dates. The second time, Martin tried juggling two different women and saw nothing wrong with it, at least until one of them called his cell phone and the other answered since Martin was unavailable. Frasier and Niles were forced to help him maintain appearances because one of the two girlfriends had the potential to help the duo save their childhood school from closing down as long as she was in a good mood. | |
