"World's End Harem" is a manga serialized in Shonen Jump+. It's an erotic sci-fi work with intense sexual depictions and hidden conspiracies that are hard to believe are part of a boys' manga. The anime adaptation was postponed due to concerns that it would become almost entirely erotic, but it will begin airing in January 2022. The characters are sexy and cute, and there's probably a character that will suit any fetish. So, let's take a look at the top characters from the official popularity poll and discuss why they're so popular!
Popularity Poll Winner: Akira Todo
Akira Todo is a classmate of Shota Doi, also known as Number 3, and the ace of the volleyball team at the school he attends. She's tall, busty, and has an incredible figure, but she's not good at expressing her emotions, giving others a stoic, cool impression. However, deep down, she's just shy and not good at expressing her emotions. Deep down, she's a devoted, Japanese-style woman. Her busty breasts and captivating costumes, combined with her seemingly aggressive appearance, are what make her so popular. She also took first place in the first popularity poll, making her the overwhelmingly popular character.
Popularity Poll 2nd Place: Reina Kitayama
She's the mating partner of Kyoji Hino, aka No. 1. She's Kyoji's favorite actress, a beautiful woman with pink hair and big breasts. She embodies the dreamlike situation of being able to flirt with a beautiful actress of Kyoji's dreams, and she continues to devote herself to him. Initially, she was meant to be a minor character, a man's dream scenario, but her popularity led to her return. She placed 6th in the first popularity poll, but has made a huge leap forward. Although she doesn't appear often, her chaste nature towards Kyoji is one of the reasons for her popularity!
Popularity Poll #3: Abo Koron
The wife of the president of a business partner of Number 4, Zen Kinebuchi. She said she is almost the same age as Zen, so she is in her 30s and a beautiful wife with a child. She is a character that inspires fantasies like, "He's a nasty and incompetent president, yet he has such a beautiful wife! How envious! I'm so jealous!" Later, Zen is held captive by a group of women and becomes a sex slave to her and other beautiful women, and to be honest, I'm envious. Using her eroticism as a married woman as a weapon, she came in third in the popularity poll. She probably hadn't appeared in the first round, so the recent popularity of beautiful mothers may have directly correlated with her votes and sexual preferences.
Chloe Mansfield: 4th Place in the Popularity Poll
A beautiful blonde with big breasts from America. She's an executive at the UW, which effectively controls the world, and she's been involved in various secret activities, including seducing the number two, Reito. At first, it was unclear whether she was an enemy or a friend, but in fact, she was firmly on the enemy's side. She's a character who is full-blown misandry and seeks to eradicate all men from the world. She even murdered the number one, Kyoji Hino, and committed the outrageous act of depriving the surviving male of his sexual function. Perhaps the reason she's so popular is because Chloe's true nature wasn't known at the time of the popularity poll? Her looks and style are divine! I want to show her that. She placed second in the first popularity poll.
Popularity Poll #5: Akane Ryuzoji
A nurse dispatched to manage the health of Mizuhara Reito, also known as Number Two. She's busty and has an incredible figure, and she often teases and flirts with the protagonist. For some reason, Reito sleeps with Akane every day. However, Akane's circumstances are somewhat complicated. While she admires her mother, Secretary of State Onihara, she neglected her family while trying to reign in the chaos of the country, which resulted in her being unable to attend her son's funeral. As a result, she hates Onihara, even though she doesn't. She's a reliable ally to the protagonist, and her bold, mature side, even showing her vulnerable side, is probably why she's so popular. She placed 7th in the first popularity poll.
Popularity Poll #6: Miku Suo
Number 2, Mizuhara Reito's personal officer. She has big breasts, a cool personality, and a vague resemblance to Reito's girlfriend, Erika Tachibana. While she's the main heroine, she's good-looking, busty, and somewhat mysterious, but devoted to the protagonist. But why did she only come in 6th in the popularity poll? Could it be because she was removed from her role as personal officer midway through the series and separated from Reito, leading to a sudden decrease in her appearances? Since she only meets Reito again at the end of Part 1, she could be described as a supporting heroine. She actually has a deep connection with the important character Erika Tachibana, but perhaps her ranking is lower because Erika and Miku both had very limited screen time. She placed 4th in the first episode. Perhaps it's because her screen time has decreased?
Popularity Poll #7: Karen Kamiya
She's the personal officer for Shota Doi, also known as Number 3. She has a lively, cheerful personality and is always high-energy and talkative, but behind the scenes, she has a hidden side, hatching schemes and operating in the shadows. Karen is a vixen-like girl who is not afraid to use and bring down others to achieve her goals, but Shota, knowing her true nature, conspires with her to rise to the top. In the middle of the story, she conspires with him despite learning the true identity of the mastermind who is trying to eradicate men, but in the end she is fully prepared to betray him and remains Shota's ally from start to finish. The trust between Shota and Karen, who has been poisoned by the poison that is Kamiya Karen, is perhaps quite reminiscent of a shonen manga. She came in third in the first popularity poll, but perhaps she revealed her true nature too much.
8th Place in the Popularity Poll: Erika Tachibana
A childhood friend of Mizuhara Reito, known as Number 2, she confesses her love to him just before he goes into cold sleep. She eventually accepts his confession and tells him she'll always be waiting for him, but when Reito wakes up, Erika is gone. Like Reito, Erika was a medical student who disappeared after realizing a certain truth about the world. By following his lover Erika's path, Reito learns of the conspiracies swirling around this world. ...She plays a very important role in the story, and could even be called one of the main heroines. However, she has few screen time, few love scenes, and only a long time until she reunites with Reito. Perhaps because of her lack of screen time despite being the main heroine, she ranked 8th in the popularity poll. Furthermore, she disappeared from Reito's sight again in Part 2. It's inevitable that her screen time will decrease even further.
Popularity Poll Ranked 9th: Kuroda, Rain, and Chifuyu
A genius high school student who skipped a grade and entered the school where Number 2, Shota Doi, attends? She looks exactly like an elementary school student, with a flat chest and a cheeky, precocious lolita, and perhaps because that's too dangerous, there are no depictions of her mating. She's a brat, but also a total loser, so when she picks on Todo Akira, whom she views as a rival, she always receives a painful counterattack and learns her lesson. She's also the younger sister of Kuroda Maria, who was sent to replace Suou Miku, Mizuhara Reito's personal officer. Among all the sexy-looking characters, the extremely rare flat-chested lolita is so unique, perhaps because we find out she's Kuroda Maria's younger sister, or perhaps because her energetic, lolita-like nature is just so appealing, but she did well, coming in 9th place. In the world of this work, there is a secret technique called accelerated growth, and she wanted to enter it and quickly become an adult, so there's a chance she may appear as an adult. But I also think she's fine the way she is.
10th Place in the Popularity Poll: Yuzuki Hanyu
Before Shota Doi, also known as Number 3, went into cold sleep, Yuzuki was his homeroom teacher. She had big breasts, wore glasses, and was a very kind teacher. She was the only one who supported Shota, who was being bullied. Despite his circumstances, Yuzuki became the woman Shota admired, and it was she who stole his virginity. She was kind, sexy, and the best teacher, but for certain reasons, she suddenly disappeared from Shota's sight. Perhaps because she appeared less frequently after that, she was ranked 10th in the second poll. She placed fifth in the first popularity poll, so perhaps her limited screen time was a factor. Yuuki's disappearance was due to Kamiya Karen's involvement, but more specifically, because she became pregnant with Shota's child, a boy resistant to the virus. If that were to happen, she would be killed by a mastermind intent on eradicating men.
