* WHICH ONE, I think is the question. XD
** magicnoire pointed out that this belongs in the seinen/josei category.
*** Note: not Ouran. XD Also rather than "reverse harem," a better description would be: love triangle + best friend, but she's been in love with someone else along.
**** Not Naruto. (Additional clue: formulaic.)
***** magicnoire pointed out that this is actually set in the Tokugawa era. *fail!*
