Are we meeting the love rival who is 100x better than the first boi who will obviously lose even though realistically he is the best boi if he is an actual human being and you can definitely see yourself being with him until your old and not with the other person.
@sakuchu it's just a trait I always seem to notice in most romance with multiple love interest the one who usually wins are characters that are the most popular/some sort of Idol/Rich person etc and the person mostly considered as the best girl/boy are just normal people and would realistically exist around you.
just an observation there are exceptions but it's mostly like this.
@greatninja3
They’re written without flaws because they’re supposed to test whether the love is true or the heroine is just a thirsty girl Edit:And in most cases the male lead is a 99% perfect human male so where do you go from there?
Otherwise the love rival would legit just be a creepy stalker like in Namaikizakari
And don’t get me started on the ham fisted blunders they force the male lead to make (usually caused by the 2nd guy no less) so the heroine’s borderline (to actual) cheating becomes justifiable.
