Why?

You do realize that harems count as romance too, right?
>>
>>157247213
Some (wo)men just want to watch the world burn.
>>
>>157247213
Those "men" are obsessed with purity though. They're the scum of Japan so they don't represent the average man. To be fair, the average man isn't that interested on romance and when a non-autist male write romance, it often has a lot of cuckoldry and cheating. Try reading a real book

>>
>>157247213
most times male authors are either severely inexperienced or pandering to an inexperienced audience. When the girlfriend is introduced, shes just an item because the author has no idea how to introduce some sense of legitimate conflict. So what you get is I want a girl ------> now she's my girl and like a theoretical gf she loves me and thats it -----> the danger to our relationship is external

They're writing wish fulfilment. Men want someone worth suffering for, that captures the heart. Women want to drown in attention and desire, that captures the loins.

Men want a perfect partner that they'll never argue with or stop loving.
Women want to be taboo and have five husbands, two of which are brothers, one of them being her dad, one being the gardener, and one being a long lost Latin man from six years ago.

Men are idealists, so it makes sense for them to use fiction to live out their unattainable fantasies. This could backfire on them however as it hurts them on the inside to not be able to live out the ideal world. Japanese men are just extremes on this case. We all know that feeling.

I don't think it's really polarized like that but most male writers have no clue what makes a compelling romance with interesting characters. At best they usually just vomit out your young teenage fantasy where two innocent pure characters fine true love in one another. It's boring.

Because that's what women are like and it's what they want. They want superior men to come in and crush inferior men while taking the women as mates. Women want that, just read about how women react when conquered. None of them will fight it, they want to be taken by superior men.

It's boring if you're a degenerate who revels in his own shit. Joseph Goebbels characterised degenerate art by its glorification of vice and the abnorm. The unheroic, the ugly, the sick and rotten is put on the pedestal of artistic ideal. There is absolutely nothing wrong with depicting an ideal and only those who have been thoroughly polluted in mind and spirit would choose a depiction of the ugly over it.

The point is very simple, if you think that any *person* after their teen years is gonna be pure like in anime and that all relationships are perfect, then you are just ignorant. Sure, it would be nice if they were but I don't think so, this applies to both man and woman.
After teen years romance is overall shit.

Not him but I'd say most of Sahara Mizu's works fall under "innocent pure characters who find true love in one another", and they're all very good. You should try them. She's a renowned romance author.
Honestly I feel like a lot of nice romance is based on those characteristics, yet you're acting as if it was something impossible. I think the problem lies withing yourself, maybe romance just isn't your thing.

You realize your fantasy is no different from a little girl's right? That the idea of finding your one true love with both of you being unmarred by the touch of another is nothing more than a child's fancy. Except most little girls grow up.

We literally have this thread every month, and everyone is still fucking stupid.

It's all the same shit once you look past the narrow selection of stuff you've seen. Most shoujo has a chaste relationship that appeals to little girls who want to get swept off their feet. Most shounen romance is the same, but they want to do the chasing instead but still want he girls to come forward. And both are immature in their on ways. Shounen romance tries to go for more physical interaction,but because it does the emotional aspect usually feels barren, especially if the physical interactions are by-the-book. Shoujo romance is the opposite; it goes for more emotion, but the physical interaction is hollow and the emotional aspect sometimes overdone.
>>
>>157252886
>You realize your fantasy is no different from a little girl's right?
What a coincidence, I happen to be a little girl.

In any case, your argument is entirely worthless because we're talking about aesthetics here. It is unimportant to me or anyone else that some people, broken and jaded, defiled by life itself, prefer to see their ugly reality depicted. That is their own problem. I want to see an ideal in anime.

Shit. Niggas are simple creatures. Feed me, fuck me, shut the hell up and be there. Women aren't like that. They NEED excitement, they CRAVE anxiety and emotional thrills. Never heard it said that men HAVE emotions, but women ARE emotions? It's like how dogs will sniff anything, no matter how sweet or putrid. Smell is part of a Dog's very being.

Why do you think women love blowing shit up into big conflicts? Why do you think they love going through your phone? Why do you think they try to give you the silent treatment for all of 30 minutes if you ask her to stop bitching because she KNOWS you already finished cleaning the gutters?

nah fuck you. do you want every story to be happy friendshipip bullshit straight outta precure? Ugly realities make good stories, foster complex characters with many motivations, and allow for a wider breadth of emotions to be expressed. I'm not saying I don't enjoy some mindless mahou shoujo show every now and then, but variety in the medium is always a good thing.

It's a problem because it raises unrealistic expectations which no real woman will ever be able to live up to.

You see, that's why specified Precure as an example of a mindless mahou shoujo show. Sailor Moon is also up there. You know why? All these girls act however they want and there are no real consequences. Everything is fine and dandy in the end. That's mindless.
Madoka is alright in my book, it's still a mahou shoujo show. It's good because shit has consequences. It's not always fine and good in the end. People die.
Not all mahou shoujo is mindless, but the specific subset I was referring to, clearly I might add, certainly is.

Having random specks of DNA floating around in someone is like bringing up the fact that dust is 90% skin flecks and when you inhale inside a building you are likely breathing in a pound of yourself and everyone else who lives there.

This. Science has confirmed that cuckoldry is the intelligent people's fetish so It's kind of embarrassing how stupid anti-cucks are by essentially declaring they are idiots thinking they insult others. If I ever marry I hope my wife would have been brave enough to experience as much as life offers so she can get the whole "bad boy" thing out of her system, but even if she wishes to explore further I wouldn't mind since I'm actually educated and open minded and little things like who do you sleep with are absolutely irrelevant in a real loving relationship. Sex is big part of human relationships but it's not the only one.

You keep saying this, except I've seen you post your taste several times now and your idea of "dynamic characters with flaws and emotions" are just a copy-paste spunky teen (or loveless 30-something) who falls in love with the assholish alpha ikemen who's really soft on the inside, and your taste in drama is like the most clumsy and least subtle soap opera shit imaginable. And then you read some actual serious drama like Okazaki Kyoko and you go "Oh, no, this is too mean-spirited, I can't take it."

If the source of the conflict isn't other people, then it's either going to be material circumstances (death, family circumstances), ambition (going to music school, smell ya later!), angst dialed up to eleven (am I really good enough???) or MISUNDERSTANDINGS.

All of these are more or less unrealistic among normal people, who are weak reeds, fall in and out of love, and are often shitty people.
>>
>>157255038
And you can have it with sluttiness and the like. Cheating causes strong emotions and lots of conflict. Other ways of creating conflict in romance would be external threats that get kinda boring and generally don't make the readers react with quite as strong emotions, since we have easy villains and easy heroes and now you pretty much have to watch the hero foil the villain.

It's as the difference between creating hero with a sin archetype using something silly as "I didn't manage to save someone and now I fault myself and edge" and something like "I am guilty of actually killing someone readers liked very much".

When you're going to involve teenagers, sex and physical affection will be an important part of it. Because it's an age where hormones take over.

Those unrealistic 16 years old sexless dolls that the otaku call "characters" are bland and unrealistic. They are just nine years old in an adult body.
>>
>>157255506
I think the problem here is you just dismissing these things based on "muh reality." You just said "romance has a period of dynamism when you watch two people get together in spite of x," and then you went "Whoops, long-distance relationships don't work, the end." You see the disconnect there? That's the whole fucking strength of fiction, you get to have things happen according to narrative structures rather than strictly realistic causality/probability. A good romance writer could take that long distance relationship and make it work while showcasing the characters' emotions in an emphatic way. Or they could go the melancholy route and make it not work out, while showcasing the characters' emotions in an emphatic way. The premise matters much less than the execution, it's just an excuse to let the author get at the characters in extreme situations, and most "muh realism" romances about cheating and shit don't do that, they just present the drama with no artistry and expect people to be emotional simply at the concept. Good writing is making the insignificant significant, not relying on the natural significance of events to carry itself, because that doesn't work. I'd take someone like Adachi, who writes completely mundane highschool romances with an excellent sense of character-handling and general storytelling, over the vast majority of trashy "adult" romances.

It's because of how differently men and women experience love and the "chase".
Men, generally speaking, always try to win through the hard way: making her laugh, seducing her, improving themselves, declaring their affection, etc. The ones who differ from this way of doing things, even if they succeed, are often seen as jerks and assholes. These are the usual villains in stories, and they often get beaten up or, at least, get hated.
Women, on the other hand, are the ones being chased. So, for the right person to chase them, they need to resort to tricks and social engineering. They will backstab, they will cheat, they will use people. Anything in order to achieve what they want. That's why women hardly ever fight physically, but attack each other's social status on a daily basis. This reflect on their stories.

I've known enough men and women to see how different they perceive the world. A guy, for as much as an asshole he might be, he usually still has some pride and some ideals, there are boundaries he will not cross, and things he will respect - even if it is the fist of a bigger dude. Women act a lot on their immediate feelings, and thus will do things that either seem illogical (tho have logic once you put them in context) or just wrong. They tolerate a lot more in order to satiate that feeling than a man would to achieve his goal.

Hey fucker, I never discounted simple shows as bad. I just said that they don't show the same range of emotions as more mature shows do.
Like it or not more variety is always a good thing for the medium. You can watch your mindless magical girls, I can watch my more emotionally complex shows. They can both be shit, and they can both be good. Being simple doesn't preclude a show from being worthwhile.
However, you can't argue that something like Precure is as emotionally complex as something like Lain, that simply isn't true. WHether either one of these 2 is good is up to each person to decide, but their complexity is just a fact. Even if a children's book is very good, it doesn't mean it's as complex as War and Peace.

Madoka went to shit after the original series, the movies and everything after that are absolute trash. However the tv series was certainly more mature than sailor moon. Now I'll admit sailor moon is certainly more mature than Precure, saying otherwise would be disingenuous. But even you must admit that the character's in it are generally not very complex. And the end of S1 is literally everything I've talked shit about. Everyone who dies gets revived and live normal lives again, the world is fine, and only Luna and Artemis even remember anything happening.

Men cannot tolerate let alone embrace flawed women. They will begrudgingly accept it in real life, resenting women all the while, but in fantasy they want perfect pure angels with only superficial flaws that don't cause conflict (like clumsiness).

Why?

Simply put, men are predisposed to purity and loyalty; both things that they are exposed to through other boys as they grow, they are also brought up to view women as the "fairer" sex, angels who do no wrong and are so above them morally, when in fact that is the opposite of the truth.
You write what you know, or at least desire to be true; a lot of mangaka and writers draw from their experience with the opposite sex, which would often be when they were children, notice how 2D girls often act like that girl you knew that clung to you and wanted to get married, without any ulterior motive, that completely changed when you hit your teens, that isn't to say they have no experience with women, it is just that the superiority is apparent, and what sells to the young men is either harem or a simple romance between two characters that are loyal and honor each other, and notice how even in harem loyalty and love are always on the forefront.
On the women side, there's a lot of hedonism as they are the most hedonistic creatures in existence and hedonism runs counter to loyalty, love and honor.
That isn't to say women can't also desire what a man also wants out of a relationship, but that is less frequent and a lot of women only realize this when it's too late and no self respecting man wants them as a wife, not even the most alpha of Chads wants the sluts he sleeps with as anything but a cumdump.

The problem OP, is that you are leaving out the Harem genre, and ignoring all the situations where like 4-19 girls get "cucked" to the one final girl that wins. This also ignores all the isekai romances that have actual harem ends and where every girl just sort of accepts getting cheated on. And there are a lot of those. This is like the bulk of LN/Manga these days.

At the other end of the spectrum, we have obsessive faggot stories about stupidly pure couples who have the worst social interactions and are constantly getting "misunderstood" over trivial stupid nonsense.

Yes, women's manga is pretty bad, but it's not exactly surrounded by some abundance of great love stories. Manga is probably the worst storytelling medium of all time due to the industry, the people in it, and the need to maintain popularity/interest while stretching stories.

There are no good Manga love stories, because Manga itself is a medium that works best for shounen fight stories, not authentic relationship-building.

And yours is no different than that of a teenager who thinks he has all of life figured out because he's watched a lot of edgy (in both the traditional and internet definition) movies and tv shows that have a degree of focus on shitty people and relationships, like someone who thinks a show like Shameless is the very pinnacle of storytelling because it's about human garbage and therefore deep.
Funny thing, as an adult children can be extremely wonderful and refreshing to be around for reasons wholly opposite of being childish in mind, but the fact that you glorify teenage mentality shows you are still on that level mentally.

>>157260213
Women are shit at everything, but there are whiteknights in every thread of a manga written by a woman trying to defend her. It's pathetic. Look at the Kimetsu no Yaiba threads. It's a mediocre Jump shonen with shitty art and cardboard characters, but people love it and sperg out whenever someone says anything even slightly bad about it because it's written by a woman. It's the same with The Promised Neverland and Samon-kun wa Summoner. Females in Jump were a mistake.

A few are alright. For shonen FMA and Magi are two of my favorites, though Magi took a huge nosedive in quality after a while. I guess it's the romance genre where stuff that the OP is talking about is found, and I usually stay away from that stuff. The only exceptions off the top of my head are Akagami no Shirayukihime and Otoyomegatari.

Does Monogatari not count? Sure it's not romantic, but it's certainly about having a guy be the centre of attention.

Mango, right?
Animu has a male director so he probably polished the work into something tolerable.
I would love to argue that the writing is indeed shit, but its been a very long time since I have read it. One peculiar thing I remember is that I was unable to finish it in single reading. I usually devour stuff before I can continue to my life, but FMA required couple breaks from reading. It is not indicative of anything, just my two cents.
I also would like to point out the fact it is one of the few mango that anyone reads, not after reading 100+. Which may be argued for the users incapability of judging its true worth, be it better or worse.

I read a lot of romance manga and I can safely say that, excluding haremshit, it usually goes as follows

>Men
Cute, comfortable, simple stories of a male and female falling in love. Sometimes even has the couple established at the very beginning of the story. Tension is most likely to come from outside of the relationship, but if it does come from within it's usually a minor mixup that is solved within a few chapters.

Problems I find with male authors is that sometimes the main character is a little too passive and lets the girl do all the work.

>Female
Pretty much the opposite of males. Drama, misunderstandings, and twisted characters. Hilariously enough the female characters usually have little agency until it comes time to fuck over the male characters.

If I see genre: Josei I run the fuck away. The few Josei manga I've read were a fucking nightmare.

This all a broad overview. My favorite romance manga, Love Lab, is written by a woman. I just have an extreme beef with the Josei genre. It scares the fuck out of me with how insane women are.

Women mostly write shoujo and Josei

Shoujo is the most boring shit ever. It's haremshit for girls. One boring girl, three guys that suddenly take interest in her. The problem is that while only a portion of Seinen is haremshit, it seems that the vast majority of shoujo follows the previously mentioned formula.

Josei is the exact opposite. It's not boring, but it's instead so twisted and lacking in empathy that it isn't afraid to have its 'innocent' female lead completely fuck over everyone else. All the while the writer will constantly shove it into your face that what the female is doing is 'hard, but right'. It's disgusting.
>>
>>157261608
Wrong
This is >>157258379

Also in general if it isn't childhood romance it isn't romance
Adult love is a lie...let me tell you as someone who has fallen in love when he was 6 years old and still loves the same girl to this day...you cannot fall in love as an adult that is a bunch of bullshit which is why all adult "love stories" are trailer trash-tier Soap Opera bullshit

Everything is just a meme. The world was supposed to end in 2012 but didn't due to a glitch. Since then, reality has been a series of cobbled together events ruled by memetic magic and the power of collective belief. Fiction is reality, reality is fiction, memes are the force behind the universe. All of it is unraveling before our very eyes.

It has all to do with it since I was using it as an example of "childhood love"

Wow this "Anime & Manga" sure was enlighting. Glad to see the topic was fully explored. This absolutely did not turn into an insult contest, where the popular teams Cucks vs Virgins fought. Somehow they still didn't manage to decipher who the truly incredulous beta was. All while trying to desperately assert their own personal social interpretation of sexual relationships as an universal superiority. Perhaps this debate finally managed to smother all the anons insecurities and dormant inferiority.

Sasuga late night /a/, you never fail to make me feel relatively better about myself.
>>
It's not odd, women don't give a shit about virginity.
Men care about it out of several things like instinct and romantic ideas.
However, in women's case, a virgin male is likely to mean some inexperienced chap with no idea on treating her, how to make her feel good either emotionally or physically.

Women are more likely to prefer an experienced man, than a man an experienced woman.
