The whole harem thing needs to be introduced naturally... which you've done really well by not focusing on it. I prefer harem, personally. Normally with a harem story, you might get one good female interest and the rest are just throw away in the eyes of the viewers, but honestly you've done great in making them their own. I like the characters and I like their stories. The only one that doesn't feel natural is Evelyn, and she's been around long enough for me to no longer care. Introducing more love interests is fine too, beyond this, as long as it makes sense. If people want a normal love and no harem, then they can fantasize about our abyssal monk and his sugary love story which is a good counter to that.
