I'm screenshotting rather than derailing this post but
I'd like to call it now before I'm accused of this by someone who thinks the thematic foundation of a particular show is the "romance"
just. Based on some *takes* I've seen.
#fan wank#ignore Morg#I mean there are shows like Utena where the romance *is* critical to the thematic foundation of the show#but I'm talking one where the romance is tangentially related to what is a tertiary theme *at best*#and also written in a way that makes the actual get-together look like it came out of nowhere#if you aren't mired in the ''they're standing next to each other'' expectations of obligatory romances that are just there to tick a box#Wait actually I think this explains why people claim [show] has ''the greatest romance they've ever seen''#[Head Writer] - crucially - did *TRY* to write one. He failed miserably and created some utterly incompatible characters but#he *did* try. And I don't think the people who say that have seen anything *but* obligatory box-ticking romances#watch the racist chicks from [platform] figure out what work I'm talking about based on that last point alone lol#oh wait they won't because they're super blocked! XD#''[POC character] is an abuser because he changed his plans when he no longer had to coordinate with a serious partner''#lady I know you just don't like his nationality. it's kind of obvious actually based on all the other shit you've said
