That's the best scene in the movie (the part where they try to speak English at the sushi place, right?)

You should. Haruhi and especially Endless Eight is the perfect gateway show for normies with good taste.

No, the best part of the movie is when Azu-nyan becomes Azu-catto.

Phantom World doesn't seem to have its own thing but I wanted to share that 'You sure have a wide strike zone' is quite possibly the best line ever uttered in a harem anime.

There was a second male character with more than a minute of screen time? I must have missed that, which one?

in order for something to be a harem show, there has to be a harem, not a group of girls who view the single guy as a friend and hang out with him as regular friends

Ehh, it can be stretched to that definition for the genre.

At that point you are stretching to the point of meaninglessness and may as well not use it to describe a thing though

The thing is, it's more common to just have 2 or 3 girls/guy interested in the main dude/girl, and then every other girl/guy is just their friend in the harem genre. That or they're all living together in a dorm, in which case, it's still 2 or 3 and the rest of the characters ship/heckle the couples. Generally, harem just means there's a large imbalance of one gender over the other though.

Course, this also means certain series technically qualify under the harem label that you normally wouldn't think of as a harem, like say Haruhi. Ah My Goddess, despite being a trendsetter for harem stuff, ended up not being very harem-like at all beyond living with 3 goddesses, and they're constantly visited by a bunch of other goddesses.

But yeah, it's just typically shorthand for everyone is interested in the main character.
