The only issue I can think of is that in the world of super long light novel adaptation titles, you might run into character limits with the longer title that a different tag would have.
While this is a good point, I don’t think cutting down 6 characters would be of much help.

Instant Regret - extremely short, at just a few chapters long (and just a few pages per chapter); well-received by this community too; highly recommend you to binge this if you haven’t already done so

Meta:
Looks like Photon has started recognizing words in square brackets as tags, so I’m now inclined to use them.
My only complaint is with the way some tags are spelt.
Presumably,
DISC
is short fordiscussion
. If this is the case, can we just use the full spelling? TheWeek 38
tag takes up 8 characters, which is not far offdiscussion

Yet another chapter where Rentarou does not appear.
I bet the Serious Group worships the god of infinity.

This is basically a kicked out from party trope, but shoujo version.
- Comment on [DISC] Misaki-kun wa Kouryaku Chara Janai / Misaki-kun is Unobtainable - Ch. 13 6 days ago:
That’s so smart. I was thinking of how this manga could end while achieving maximum happiness / utility for everyone, but I fixated on Hareta and can’t think of anything good.
Centering it on Misaki would solve it.
I still can’t think of a satisfactory way to prevent the game from breaking or ending though. (e.g. Hareta can pretend to date any / all of the heroines, but would date Misaki behind the scenes, but that’s kind of lame and out of character for Hareta)

Completed the following:
Heard plenty of praises for it before. It moved up my priority queue thanks to the latest manga chapters.
It is good as expected and I can see why everyone likes Marin. In fact, I’d say she carried the show quite a bit. Wakana does not have as much of an impact but he’s decent too.
Like most other seinen romance, there’s a lack of unnecessary drama. For example, at the end of episode 10
episode 10 spoiler
it looked like Wakana was going to cause a rift in their relationship over a small issue. I thought the episode is going to end with a looming drama as a cliff-hanger, which I’d find annoying. But Marin just straight-up spoke up about it, crushing the drama before it even begin, all in a span of one minute.
Those shounen and shoujo romances can learn from this (though at that point, they would probably be considered seinen and jousei).
It’s among my potential top favourites at the moment (i.e. score of 9 / 10). Looking forward to the next season.
Coincidentally, I picked up the manga The Story of a Succubus Who Came to the Human World. It looks like it’s inspired (or referenced) by the succubus manga from My Dress-Up Darling. Real cute and wholesome.

- Comment on I Left my A-Rank Party to Help My Former Students Reach the Dungeon Depths! -- Teaser poster (Directed by Katsumi Ono, animated by BN Pictures, coming on January 2025) 1 week ago:
Even though the story begins with your typical kicked-out-from-party premise, I enjoyed it; not sure why.
Perhaps it is because the MC isn’t someone transferred to this world. (which I find rather unnecessary of similar stories, where MC’s life before isekai is irrelevant).
If the anime is popular enough to go far, I’m curious to see if it will adapt the manga version or the novel (source).
Either way,

blue hair mage wins, which is nice.
Looking forward to this anime.

Have you watched the sequel movies yet?
Yeah, they are all great
I think it would be better to just lean into the supernatural, but…I am a professional physicist.
I bet it’s like watching hacking scenes as a programmer.

The rest of the cast appear to be adults though.
One child among many adults satisfy the definition of “mostly adult cast of characters” that OP asked for IMO.

how much time it spends on the MC’s youth
The rest of the cast are adults though, which fits the “mostly adult cast” requirement IMO

The main cast would have grown into adults later on, and based how what’s released of the anime so far, I wouldn’t count it as “mostly” adults.

I might watch it alongside Makeine, which of them should I start first?
They are quite different, so it’s really up to you.
I find that Makeine is very similar to Makoto Shinkai’s works in terms of art style, soundtracks and humour.
I would say the most similar anime to 100 Girlfriends is Gintama, though season 1 is really just a preview of the bullshit to come.
