Has there ever been an anime where the childhood friend wins?

Plenty of them.

Classmates don't count as childhood friend unless they've known each other since they were kids.

>>161930288
I thought they did know each other as kids, guess i remembered wrong

FMA?

Tonagura! ez

There's that one death game manga where they rewrite history at the end so that they were never childhood friends to begin with.

Was it ever implied that Ed and Winry hooked up?

>>161930651
everything written by Okamoto is. the ideas are good though. Kazumi was a nympho, very rarely you see those.

>>161930632
I don't remember this ever happening. Was this manga only? I dropped the manga a while back and jumped on Brotherhood.

>>161930704
It happens at the end of Brotherhood, too

define win.
but yeah, in Ranma 1/2 Ryoga actually outperformed Ranma in at least 2 competitions because he's more dedicated while Ranma rarely gives a shit. too bad for Ryoga it was usually travel-related prizes.

>>161931981
Ryoga was a massive sperg and didn't deserve Akane. He ran away from every chance to confess to her.

>>161932044
sadly true but at one point the giant ghost cat possessed him and literally did it for him and Akane actually heard it from him as well once the cat was out of the bag (what a pun), just not as openely.

that's where the episode ended and it never showed how Akane feels about it.

No. Atra's childhood friend was Mika, not Kudelia.

But they made a baby together. That's gotta count for something.

Yeah, she won the single mother status. What a trophy.

She won the Mikabowl more so than anyone else did. A Pyrrhic victory is still a victory.

It's fallen out of practice. It used to be an extremely common thing in anime which is why people got sick of it.

>>161929948
KoiChoco and Nisekoi. There's also Shomin Sample, although the anime didn't get that far.

Childhood friends are the most common winners after mysterious transfer students and tsundere girls. The real losers are class reps, especially if they have glasses.
