Japanese YouTuber Ryuta Watanabe attempted to recreate the harem lifestyle from the anime The 100 Girlfriends Who Really, Really, Really, Really, Really Love You in real life.
He built a polygamous household with multiple partners and fathered 11 children. For years he lived as a househusband supported entirely by their incomes.
When the arrangement collapsed, he lost most of his partners, declared bankruptcy, and now cleans hotel bathrooms for roughly 10 dollars an hour.
He has not abandoned his goal of eventually having a total of 54 children.
