The swingset friends to lovers is a common trope!! It has shown up in many VERY famous romantic media!!
Compiled for the bylers (I’ll add on if I find more)
Tumblr media
1.) Dawson’s Creek. A huge inspiration from the Duffer brothers because it’s one of their favorite shows.
Canon. They kiss in this scene.
Tumblr media
2.) The Fault in our Stars. Tragic love story.
Canon. They flirt on the swingset.
Tumblr media
3.) 10 Things I Hate About You. Shakespearean modern love story about two people who “hate”each other. Enemies to lovers.
Canon. They have their first moment together in this scene.
Tumblr media
4.) Scott Pilgrim VS. The World. Guy falls in love with a mysterious woman and defeats her 7 exes.
Canon. The “I’m in lesbians (love) with you” confession. Canon scene in the comic too. SEVENNNN exes, hmmmm?!?!
Tumblr media
5.) The Goldfinch. Underlying theme of a love story between two boys.
Canon…? It’s complicated, but technically yes. GAY kiss.
Tumblr media
6.) Andi Mack. Enemies to friends to lovers.
Canon. The show ended with them being an official GAY couple and holding hands.
Again, I will add more if people can find more swingset couples scenes.

Stacey and Hatano parallels
I started seeing parallels between shots of Sekoguchi Ryo in Zenkaiger and Zettai BL 3 (mostly because I have rewatched Zenkaiger way too many times) and, well, here are a few of them.

Does this mean that Zettai BL 3 made references to Zenkaiger? I doubt it. It's mostly just that Stacey and Hatano are played by the same actor and there are only so many ways to shoot two (or more) people having a lot of angst about each other. And Japanese media loves tropes, like adults and/or adolescents having deep emotional conversations while sitting on swingsets. Anyway, these show the differences between the two series at least as much as their similarities. I mean, basically what I discovered here is the shocking fact that a human being resembles himself.
But anyway, I enjoyed finding these pairs, so I thought other people might enjoy checking them out.
