Have you ever fantasized about the idea of joining an all-girls school? There’s no point in asking. You are exploring a list of harem anime on Hulu therefore I already know the answer.
Well, we know that wouldn’t be the wisest decision to make in real life. However, we can at least enjoy our fantasies being displayed in this Ecchi Action anime.

Enough of stupid and silly MCs who spend half a season crying around and figuring out their superpowers. Here we have a highly overpowered MC who is not just a badass but a badass with a swag.
It’s a clear yay or nay, either you like it or hate it. I recommend this show to those holding a Hulu subscription and a have a liking for a badass OP protagonist.
A fantasy world called Alayzard attracts many humans for being a place of swords and magic. Those who are lucky enough to survive there are blessed with magical powers. People who receive these powers are further trained on Earth by an organization called the Babel.

Rosario to Vampire is your typical high school harem drama with comedy and ecchi filled in it. I’d recommend you to check the manga of this anime which is its source material. Because it is more serious and not filled with fan service if that’s what you prefer.
Tsukune is an ordinary boy who joins a mysterious high school for monsters by mistake. He has to hide his identity to protect his life. Meanwhile, he meets Moka, a very powerful vampire, she takes a liking to Tsukune and the fun adventure begins.

Don’t judge my anime choices when I say I have watched Clannad 3 times since I first watched it when I was in High School.
Storywise, this might not be the best show on the list. But its humane plot, slapstick comedy, and rightfully done fanservice make this show one of my most cherished ones.

Madhouse never misses a chance to make the most out of a well-written manga. High school of the Dead is a result of one such manga that got adapted as an anime series in 2010. Since then this series has dominated the apocalypse genre with just one season. Unfortunately, we couldn’t get a second season because of the unfortunate passing of the manga writer.
The story revolves around Takashi Kimuro and a bunch of high school children who are on a constant run from the zombies.

Monster Musume is the answer to the weirdest sexual fantasies of an otaku- to be surrounded by busty alien girls. Although I have talked about it a lot in my other listing related to harem and ecchi, its weight among other harem anime available on Hulu is much higher than you can imagine.
