Dang, now Anna too for the Harem? I guess I'm surprised I didn't see it coming but man, I still had some hope left that Anna wouldn't be such a swooning catastrophe like literally every single other woman in this story (I guess except for, at the moment, Mackenzie, but I'm sure that's coming too).
Like, I knew from the beginning that Braindrop said every woman would be romanceable except for the incest characters, but I thought that would mean for some girls, just some casual sex every now and then, or maybe some evolution in the relationships, breaking up with some, getting together with other ones, you know, just like having a crazy sex life.
And when the game first started exploring the idea of a polyamorous relationship with, I was super on board because I thought you'd have like Jamie and Shauna, maybe Jasmine and Bailey and Stacy at some point, and that would be awesome because most VNs don't deal with multiple partners very well, the girls often not being aware at all that their guy is sleeping around like crazy. So a polyamorous relationship is an awesome way to deal with that, not least because it gives great opportunity for orgies at some point.
But I thought that it would stop at some point, and chicks that we were just having cool, casual sex with like Zoe, Elizabeth, Katie, Rachael and all her clients, that that would remain at that casual level. Managing all of these women in this enormous harem is not only basically impossible from a logistical point of view (I mean, our main guy is nearing Mongolian Emperor levels here with the size of his harem), it also robs the women of much of their characterization. Like having Zoe in the last update and now Anna in this one completely break down emotionally, and now Anna declaring her undying love for the MC and everything, I feel like we've seen it all before. It's okay to have these sorts of characters, but we already had them, and Zoe and Anna were cool for a while, they didn't need this.
