if we are going to expect a harem ending for the story as of volume 16 this is currently where the relationship status quo stands the girls are still divided into the Wall of Restoration, Wall of Huguenot, Wall of Rivalry, Wall of Professionalism, Circle of Interspecies romance and Wall of Monogamy.

who are part of the Wall of Restoration it may not be obvious but Celia falls here as well as Flora and Christina fall under this relationship.

Wall of Huguenot as long as this guy's family exist then Christina won't be able to make a move so does Latifa, and by consequence so does Flora. and of course Celia as well

Wall of Rivalry well Takahisa still wants Miharu.

Wall of Professionalism its the only motive I know why Liselotte hasnt made her move. So does Satsuki

Wall of Monogamy both Miharu and Satsuki fall into this.

Circle of Interspecies Romance its obvious if Sara, Latifa, Olphia, Alma want to persue the relationship openly, I don't think Aishia falls here as she knows about Haruto/Rio more than any of the girls.

so where do the character development goes. for Restoration as long as Huguenot has control on it's politics then the characters associated with him won't be able to make a move, this includes why Celia has accepted her role as an "assistant" to Rio, because once word gets out that Haruto and Rio; Restoration will blackmail Celia into marrying Rio into the Restoration Government obviously she does'nt want that so that's really stopping her of course the counter-plan has already been set into place. Which leads to Gustav Huguenot's existence he's most likely pivotal to the more prominent members of Rio's girls so if Flora or Christina can not have full control of the Restoration Government then Latifa's existence will still have to be hidden but we do know that since Rio is now in the higher social ladder in Galarc then once the word goes out that Latifa was sent by Gustav to assassinate Rio then the relationship dynamics will most likely change between Rio and the 2 sister princesses, as for Latifa as long as there's a stigma against werebeasts or spirit folk in general then she can only display her affections privately no weddings allowed yet this includes to Sara, Alma and Olphia. the Yugumo characters might enter the plot freely as well since Gouki knows the relationship between Rio and the Kurasaki royal couple after all Rio now has an estate to grow regardless if he likes it or not.

As for Rivalry we do think that the "letter incident" has come to pass but I personally think its far from over as long as Miharu isnt going to willingly reject Takahisa and go with Rio/Haruto in the relationship then nothing will happen. Reiss will most likely cook up a plan that will involve Takahisa, Lily and Miharu that will lead to an incident similar to the "Letter incident" despite rules would state the obvious that will not happen.

now where does Liselotte and Satsuki really fall under we do know that Satsuki is against a polygamous relationship so how much do we know about the character dynamics between Satsuki and Miharu anyway? at this point she's basically no different from Yaegashi Shizuku from Arifureta being the wingman to Miharu's relationship with Haruto either she's afraid that Miharu might hate her no different from Shizuku at this point so she's currently maintaining a distance. I think this is where Charlotte's character is going to play after all she is the maker and destroyer of relationships and she's quite open about that, and with Rio's mansion in Galarc I'm pretty sure Liselotte's maids will be more happy to help to be contracted to Rio and tease Liselotte at the same time. While Charlotte herself will be the gateway for Rio to enter the Galarc Royal Family one way or another as to why that I do not know all the foreshadowing is already there, the house he owns once belonged to Francios, it takes a high level noble to enter the Royal family (Rio is already one). So I'm still a bit bugged what's really stopping Liselotte to accept her feelings to change the character dynamics if we assume Aria is already shipping her own mistress to Rio. Maybe she's convinced that she has to maintain the status quo a bit longer after all as long as Amande is still openly targeted then she has to concentrate on her duties. Making the relationship quite professional at the very least.
