Holy shit, it's 40 years ago.

>no yuri option
>no yaoi option
Get the fuck out of here.

>strawpolling
Also, it's such a dry and uninspired question. Are we talking about who likes the other first?

>>girl and boy

>Are we talking about who likes the other first?
Yes.

Toradora-esque :^)

I like it when they like each other and there are no misunderstandings that take years to resolve.
Unfortunately, this only happens in H-manga.

No degenerates please

Where the boy and girl like each other.

Today is a winding road that's taking me to places that I didn't want to go
Whoa (whoa, whoa, whoa)
Today in the blink of an eye I'm holding on to something and I do not know why
I tried

I tried to read between the lines
I tried to look in your eyes
I want a simple explanation
For what I'm feeling inside
I gotta find a way out
Maybe there's a way out

Your voice was the soundtrack of my summer
Do you know you're unlike any other?
You'll always be my thunder, and I said
Your eyes are the brightest of all the colors
I don't wanna ever love another
You'll always be my thunder
So bring on the rain
And bring on the thunder

What exactly are you trying to ask?

You mean the MC being a girl or a boy? Girls are better MC for romance.

The plots of the best anime series all start with "A boy falls in love with a girl".

>The plots of the best anime series all start with "A boy falls in love with a girl".
Unable to confess, he is gifted with by a deus ex machina with the girl's phone number. Never minding the strange area code, he immediately calls her, and is overjoyed to find out that she has a crush on him as well.

But, the next day, when he recounts the previous day's confessions to the girl, she only looks at him with a perplexed expression. After some investigation, he finds out that the girl he called is not the same girl he fell in love with. In fact, she doesn't exist in this universe at all. She is the girl's alternate universe counterpart, who has fallen in love with the MC's own AU self, who too is blissfully unaware of her crush.

Hijinks ensue as the two strike up a deal to give each other their darkest, most private secrets in order to equip the other with the weapons they need to conquer the heart of their other selves. While the two chase their respective loved ones, DRAMA ensues as they begin to fall in love with each other instead and question the NATURE of LOVE.

>Girls are better MC for romance.
>They spends forvever being scared to confess
>Have to see them cry like bitches constantly
>9/10 they are afraid of sex even though people their age fuck like rabbits

Female MCs are garbage and take forever to move on from people they liked.

Boys likes girl if the author is male

The other way around only if the author is female

To be honest, I've never thought about it. Probably because the end results is the thing that matters, which requires willpower and not just feelings. It is often hard to tell when admiration or respect turns to like which then turns to love. Out of the shows that I've watched, the most common route is that a mc likes a girl/boy whom he builds/already has established a relationship with that developes into love. It's most common that male mcs show interest first, so I guess I'd prefer boys liking girls first.

>They spends forvever being scared to confess

Is this any better than male MCs that wait for the girl to confess like fucking dickless betas?

>Have to see them cry like bitches constantly

>what is to love-ru and numerous other ecchi and shounen series

>9/10 they are afraid of sex even though people their age fuck like rabbits

Is this bait? A lot of romances where the MC is female usually ends with them fucking at some point. Sometimes not even just once

I like whichever is done right. No preference one way or another.

What a silly question.

>A lot of romances where the MC is female usually ends with them fucking at some point.

Yeah after 100 chapters of blue balling

Are you implying that series where the MC is male don't have blueballing?

They never even kiss

Girl likes boy.

In real life girls are incapable of truly loving someone, so I find it really amusing when 2D shows girls truly loving someone. It reasures my faith in 2D.

>Blonde Egyptians
ありえません

No option for boy and girl like each other?

>egyptians

>they both like each other
>both are too beta to do the first move
>unsolved sexual tension everywhere
These are literally the worst.

And ones with a male MC usually never get sex. What are you even trying to say?

I like that they don't start fucking in chapter 10. Makes the romance much more enjoyable.

>no mutual attraction

Why?

Love triangles and eternal one-sided attraction are the cancer of fiction.

This man understands.

They hook up in like the first chapter and it's all about them doing cute/lewd shit.

>boy likes girl
girl is either out of reach perfect girl or he just doesn't have the guts to confess
>girl likes boy
boy is a total retard who doesn't pick up on the most obvious clues and tells

Which does Sup Forums prefer?

Boys should like boys and girls should like girls.

These are both the best thing ever.

Yes

Shoujo romance reminds me why 3dpd are shit.

It means that the average Japanese reader can't self-insert as someone who just walks up to a girl and hooks up. Romance has to happen via a fantasy scenario where a girl falls from the sky or they get forced to live in the same house.

These are both good. Although I usually like the boy a little older like middle school.

After watching many romance animes, I've come to the conclusion that the best romance isn't to be found in romance animes but instead series where the romance is a side plot that builds up over the course of the adventure.

Case in point is a good one. Also Tristeping/Eva from Wakfu. Rock/Revy from Black Lagoon is amazing as well though it remains to be seen where that goes.

The west doesn't really do romance as a main plot in cartoons and Japan is pretty fucking retarded when they do, so romance anime are often just a buttfuck mess of misunderstandings and drama for no reason.

Genki girl and tsundere boy is the superior romance for patricians.

fuck off abomination

Boy likes girl because It makes more sense to me, especially considering how anime MCs generally are.

Also, I prefer the idea of a man making efforts to get the girl he loves than she simply falling in love with him without any good reason behind it.

My favourite is boy likes boy but boy ultimately married girl and has children leaving other boy left with self resentment till he kills himself.

I like romance from the girl's perspective.

Is there a manga where a badass character bangs a girl?
Anyone but the MC/beta/old man/edgy fag.

...

>Majority is girl likes boy
Of course, Sup Forums will prefer the power fantasy choice.

Yes, all Shoujo ever created. They're marketed to girls so bad boys/degenerates are love interests.

>I'm somehow confused that a divine epitome of the ideal human is aryan

??

This. Romance might be an important plot, but it has to still be a side plot. For example, Spice and Wolf wouldn't be so good without the economics. One of the reasons for this is that you don't need to come up with pointless sexual tension and misunderstandings to keep the series going, you can even keep going after the couple got together.

Holy shit guy you responded to and how could I forget Spice and Wolf. Fun In Economics with a romance plot that builds up over the course of the show and it's damn good. Just another example to back up the claim.

Too bad about S2.

girl likes girl

>Sup Forums will prefer the power fantasy choice
Elaborate

Unable to confess etc etc

Having a girl falling in love with you without you doing anything to achieve it is a male power fantasy.

I think Katanagatari does it well too.

A boy falls in love with a boy. Unable to confess etc.

This. If you prefer anything else that means you'd rather look at dudes than not look at dudes, faggot.

Girl likes boy so I can self-insert.

Shota and loli is so wrong.

Kill yourself.

SS is god tier, but loli x shota is acceptable as well.

...

Can you really call it a power fantasy? Isn't it natural to want to attract the opposite sex?

Does that mean this is a female power fantasy?

I prefer when a boy falls in love with a girl

now remove the right couple

It's not a power fantasy, it's just a romantic fantasy. Power fantasies require an exertion of power.

The more important question is whether he's able to confess or not.

...

That, too.

Absolutely disgusting.

>pure yuri sex
>disgusting

the whichever is not writing in a shitty way and has a backbone

Why are yurishitters the worst cancer on this board since Strike Witches generals?

Why are they? Whats wrong with yuri?
Only time it's dumb is when it's forced like in madoka or shitters who got mad at move lab.

>yuri
That's what they want you to think.

Do yuri even?

>madoka
>forced
Forced by the fans, maybe.

I dont want bad boys.

That's what I said.

Why do you subhumans force your degeneracy on everything

I enjoy shoujo romance

Which does Sup Forums prefer?

...

The first one, with an imaginary gf.

Add a bald fatman and the little girl next to him

i prefer the one with the woman stepping on the shota

Yet somehow girls can expect that to always happen by default and have literally the entire relationship handed to them on a silver platter and that's perfectly fine.

Just go away please ma'am. This isn't tumblr or facebook or literally any other website in the world where you can be a cunt and get away with it because everybody is so scared of being called sexist if they disagree with you.

Given Romance Choices: None, Loli, Shota, Hetro

THEN

IF
Fantasy/Jokey/"Loose" Setting: Loli>Hetro>Shota>None

IF
"Serious" Setting: Hetro>None>Loli>Shota

YMMV, but that's where I stand - most loli/shota characters essentially act like cute versions of miniature adults in the series they're in - intelligence wise. When they're actually portrayed as children psychologically (See Yotsuba, Pre-Timeskip Usagi Drop ect ect) it kills any chance of a boner for me

they kind of look like haruka and yuu with an age difference, even it's not supposed to be them, it still makes me feel good!

...

I'm at a loss for words

>most loli/shota characters essentially act like cute versions of miniature adults in the series they're in - intelligence wise. When they're actually portrayed as children psychologically (See Yotsuba, Pre-Timeskip Usagi Drop ect ect) it kills any chance of a boner for me

that's weird because it gives me a raging erection you might want to see a doctor about that user!
