2/10 times yeah.

Still sucks and i'm only reading seinen ones with college settings and surprisingly this shitty trope is still there.
>>
That's usually the case in a harem or for a side romance, not in something that is primarily a romance.
In which case, it is clear what the couples are a few chapters in if not the first chapter. How is that any different from an American romance movie/novel where the entire story will focus on the main pair?

I agree that this is normal for most manga, but the pic in question doesn't really apply. If anything, Rui looks like she will win in the long run.
>>
>>139495270
Is this from the new one or from Good Ending looks like GE but since they all look the same not sure.
>>
>>139495381
I'm 95% sure it's Rui in Domestic na Kanojo. It's the scene after she finds out she 'lost'.
>>
>>139495096

>>139494927
Is that ichigo 100%?
>>
>>139495506
Has she lost yet i just caught up i though and no where near over.
>>
>>139495381

The art is way better in DomeKano. Way less samefacey and fucked up proportions. Same thing happened with >>139494927: Ichigo 100%'s art is laughably bad compared to Kawashita's later works.
>>
>>139495627
She technically lost about halfway into the manga, when she found out about her older sister's affair. Still, now that the older sister is out, she's making moves on the and he seems to be gradually swaying to her side.
>>
>>139495901
Thats what i though. Was about to go looking to see if a wave of chapters had come out i had not seen or something.

I would be glad if that's true. In the manga I've read the "bore next door" always wins and the girl who are actually fun are just distractions.

So you read like what, two light novels? Because that's not remotely accurate.

>>139494658

On top of what others have said, I think that it's also worth noting that Japan's male-oriented romance fiction and the west's housewife-oriented romance fiction are two entirely different genres. A few differences:

Male-oriented romance fiction tends to be about wacky antics and cute girls.
In male-oriented romance fiction, the protagonist is usually a problem solver for his love interests. In female-oriented, the protagonist is a problem causer.
Following that, problems in male-oriented tend to have an external source, to which the relationship plays a part in curing.

tl;dr: Housewives are horrible pieces of shit who want to fill their partner's lives with suffering for the sake of their egos. Men want good times and stability.

Blames what on /a/? The fact what it said is true?

You haven't been on /a/ for very long, have you?

>Those aren't the same as western romance novels! Those are meant to be funny!

Right, Japan's male-oriented romance genre is definitely not the same genre as the west's housewife-oriented romance genre.

If you want to self insert and fuck whoever your boring waifu is then go read some VNs and leave the actual artistic discussion to the experts
>>
>>139495202
but what if they met --before-- the events of the story happen? Then the first girl wins anyway!

I can barely call "spunky girl" any more of a personality than "boring chick".
>>
>>139498856
>Monogatari
Any real romance ended in Bake.

>Toradora
It's shit.

>VNs
This is an anime/manga board.

>shippers out the ass for every show ever
This could be applied to most shows in the West too, but even then shipping has nothing to do with critically praising a series for its romance.

I'm not sure if you're just stupid or making a decision based on a small sample. Probably a combination of both.
>>
>>139498827

It's tough to observe western romance novels without finding heavy fault in the people who actually find the lives of their protagonists to be good fantasies to escape into.

>You could say the same about people who enjoy male-oriented romance novels!

Kinda. There's only one problem with them, and that's the obsession with "she's never been interested in another man before me, and she'll never be interested in another man after me, either", sometimes even going so far as to make sure that the losers never get on with their lives. I say "kinda" because that one problem is easy to overlook for people who wouldn't hold that expectation, due to the fact that the rest of the content (99% of it) is all about cute girls and fun. It's not the foundation on which the story is built. The prior and post-story love lives of the characters aren't always specified, either, so this is only in some works.

new chapter translation when
also Rui will rightfully win

I fucking wish people knew this.

All i see is constant praise muh best love story ever told and then they get mad when you tell them it isn't.
