Harem (ハーレムもの, hāremumono, "harem works") is a genre of light novels, manga, anime, hentai, and video games originating in Japan in the 1970s but exploding late 1980s and 1990s with dating simulator games and focused on polygynous or polyandrous relationships, where a protagonist is surrounded by three or more androphilic/gynephilic suitors, love interests and/or sexual partners. Harem works are frequently comedies that rely on self-insertion protagonists allowing the audience to project themselves unto, and on having relatable and interesting ensemble cast of characters. A story featuring a heterosexual male or homosexual female protagonist paired with an all-female/yuri harem series is informally referred to as a female harem or seraglios, while a heterosexual female or gay male protagonist paired with an all-male/yaoi harem series is informally referred to as a male harem, reverse harem, or gyaku hāremu (逆ハーレム).

Dans la fiction, l’uchronie est un genre qui repose sur le principe de la réécriture de l’Histoire à partir de la modification du passé. « Uchronie » est un néologisme du xixe siècle créé par Charles Renouvier fondé sur le modèle d’utopie (u-topie), avec un « u » (pour « ou » préfixe de négation) et « chronos » (temps) : étymologiquement, le mot désigne donc un « non-temps », un temps qui n’existe pas. On utilise également l’anglicisme « histoire alternative » (alternate history). On dit parfois que l'histoire contrefactuelle et l'uchronie se distinguent par la prééminence donnée soit à l'événement déclencheur (histoire contrefactuelle), soit à ses suites fictives (uchronie), ce qui est loin d'être admis par beaucoup d'amateurs.
