The Worst Trope in All of Romance Anime

[00:00] ah valentine's day it's not until

[00:02] tomorrow but it's a day of love

[00:04] a day of happiness a day spent next to

[00:06] the person who cares for you the most

[00:08] the person who knows you inside and out

[00:10] your favorite type of music

[00:12] your least favorite food how you like

[00:14] your water and how to tickle your balls

[00:16] in just

[00:17] the right place valentine's day is all

[00:19] of these things

[00:21] if you're spoken for if you're not no

[00:23] worries because all easy will be right

[00:25] here to remind everyone how lonely we

[00:27] really are on this salty predominantly

[00:29] blue rock

[00:30] [Music]

[00:32] hey i know what will divert our

[00:34] attention away from this existential

[00:36] nightmare

[00:36] let's watch some romance anime guys yeah

[00:39] that's definitely not a recipe for

[00:40] disaster there's just no possible way

[00:43] it could be that's it my mind is made up

[00:46] the rest of valentine's season will be

[00:47] spent watching

[00:48] romance anime as far as the eye can see

[00:51] no matter the time period

[00:52] no matter the amount of episodes and no

[00:54] matter the quality

[00:55] i will consume nothing but romance anime

[00:58] what could possibly go wrong

[01:05] um perhaps drowning myself in a genre

[01:09] surrounded by a sensation i have not

[01:11] felt in some time was not the best idea

[01:14] however uh given that i have now

[01:16] consumed dozens

[01:17] upon dozens of hours of romance anime it

[01:20] appears that i am now an

[01:21] expert of some sorts and on this road to

[01:24] romance anime expertise

[01:26] i noticed a certain trend that would

[01:28] rear its ugly

[01:29] and rather unfulfilling head every now

[01:31] and again a trend that i believe pulled

[01:33] the title

[01:34] for worst trope in all of romance anime

[01:37] what could it be

[01:38] what's he going to say what's going to

[01:40] come out of that mouth of his

[01:42] drum roll please

[01:43] [Music]

[01:45] the lack of a kiss shared in some of

[01:47] these animes is the stupidest thing

[01:49] i ever did see you know what i'm talking

[01:51] about and you know what i'm getting at

[01:53] you find a new romance anime to watch

[01:55] and really sink your teeth into

[01:56] and you're having a ball the characters

[01:58] are great they're having heart-to-hearts

[02:00] what they're doing is never boring it's

[02:02] looking to be an anime you'll remember

[02:03] years from now you've reached the final

[02:05] episode the two main characters are

[02:07] standing on top of a hill with the moon

[02:08] in the distance they're staring into

[02:10] each other's soul perfect opportunity

[02:12] for a kiss here it comes baby this is

[02:13] why i wake up in the morning it's right

[02:15] there this is what we've been waiting

[02:16] for

[02:17] so let me get this straight you build up

[02:20] the viewers anticipation for 12 episodes

[02:23] maybe more and you don't even pull the

[02:25] trigger because you don't have the balls

[02:27] to do it is that it

[02:28] do the people who do this just like

[02:30] being worse than hitler

[02:31] you know what that that might be pushing

[02:33] it but they're still monsters

[02:34] the clip you just saw was from rascal

[02:36] does not dream of bunny girl senpai a

[02:38] beautiful anime with an even more

[02:40] beautiful movie highly recommend it

[02:42] you watch these two slowly fall in love

[02:44] over the course of 12 episodes and it's

[02:46] handled

[02:46] really well it's written well and you

[02:48] really feel the connection and bond they

[02:50] form across those 12 episodes

[02:51] then you get to the last episode and it

[02:53] pulls this crap it's not the only anime

[02:55] to pull that as well

[02:56] hag and i love tunibio and other

[02:58] delusions sakuratsu no pet not konojo at

[03:01] least when referring to the main

[03:02] characters and those are just the ones

[03:03] i've seen because i know for a fact that

[03:05] there are

[03:06] tons more you know how unsatisfying and

[03:08] anti-climactic it feels when they do

[03:10] this

[03:11] it sucks it'd be like traveling halfway

[03:13] across the country

[03:14] because you heard someplace in idaho had

[03:16] god like french fries and when you get

[03:18] it

[03:18] it's like fancy restaurant portions

[03:20] where they give you a cup

[03:21] with like seven fries and they charge

[03:23] you 38 it's

[03:25] so underwhelming imagine if this crap

[03:27] was pulled in

[03:28] any other genre like imagine if in the

[03:30] incredibles i know it's not anime

[03:32] but bear with me at the end instead of

[03:34] bob chucking the car at syndrome's jet

[03:36] he just kind of slips into the turbine

[03:38] or instead of vader

[03:40] finally overcoming the dark side and

[03:42] throwing sidious down the chasm

[03:44] he just trips bro imagine if you were

[03:46] playing modern warfare's campaign and

[03:48] shepard dies off screen

[03:50] you just get told that over radio or

[03:51] something or you're about to face the

[03:53] champion in pokemon and they're a

[03:54] complete pushover you know what uh

[03:57] with x and y you know bad example but my

[03:59] point still stands to build up a

[04:00] relationship

[04:01] for however long the anime is and then

[04:03] not have it end with a kiss

[04:05] it should be a crime all right no before

[04:07] i end this video i need to know

[04:08] why why do they do this so let me just

[04:11] do some research here

[04:16] all right okay all right here it is

[04:18] according to user

[04:19] astigia on this crunchyroll forum it's a

[04:22] cultural thing kissing and other forms

[04:24] of physical affection

[04:25] aren't as prominent there as they are

[04:27] here and saying the words i love you is

[04:29] a better way to show couples

[04:30] affection for each other so basically

[04:32] they're [ __ ]

[04:33] nah they're not if it's just the way

[04:36] things are over there i guess i can't be

[04:38] too mad but you know what i can be mad

[04:40] about the fact that they tease it

[04:42] so much they dangle that carrot in front

[04:44] of us like a bunch of j

[04:45] you know what no i am going to be mad i

[04:46] don't care if it's how they roll it's

[04:48] wrong

[04:48] that's right the way they interpret love

[04:50] is wrong i don't care i'm done they need

[04:52] to learn

[04:53] braden get get the keys we're dropping a

[04:56] third one on them

[04:58] yeah i'm serious i've added up to here

[05:00] with this crap it's bull all right and

[05:02] they're not gonna learn otherwise i

[05:03] swear to god

[05:04] this sucks they're so stupid that's it

[05:06] they're done they're done

[05:08] they're done i'm out
