Ojou-sama X Butler or Maid: I just love this pairing

Childhood Friends

Tomboy X Tomgirl

Bickering Couples

Rich Girl x Poor Guy: That's actually a really hard-to-find pairing outside of Ojou x Servant, there were a few comedies in the 90s -mostly rags to riches types of stories - but outside of VNs or harem stories this pairing is almost non-existent. Especially if you compare it to the oversaturated opposite pairing of Rich Guy X Poor Girl... (Can't blame Pretty Woman since that movie was actually good, tho)

I guess, a yandere story that doesn't end in something resembling tragedy. Even the somewhat good endings are either the yandere and love interest both willingly dying together, or somehow the yandere is "healed" of their crazy.

I want the crazy girl to remain "off her rocker," but the ending to still be considered positive with no tragic/bittersweet undertones. This sounds like a pretty unlikely scenario ending, hence my interest in seeing it somehow done nevertheless.

The closest I ever remember seeing, there was this guy on Scribblehub a while back, who was kinda considered the leading yandere writer by pretty much most folks here, but I lost interest because he kept rebooting his story. Wish I could remember what he was called, or at least his story name.

I really want it. Especially with gl. Why people don't use this trope more often

Lovers with different love languages/cultures of expression

Masculine girl, feminine guy, or at least one unconventional gender role

Tall dominating girl who can't handle being under attack

Observant love interest that can't reciprocate the feeling at the moment

Fucking communicative pairing for one would be good too

Love turns evil character good.
You know what? Considering how normal that idea sounds, I can't think of any stories that have done this. Wait, let me rephrase. A lot of those CN novels about evil princes, counts, dukes etc. have done this. It's always the male MC turned good by female MC though. Never read them, but they are a dime-a-dozen at this point.

I'd like to see the opposite, mostly because I don't think I've ever seen it. Evil princess turned good-ish because of Golden hearted peasant boy.

Idk sounds cheesy, but I'm sure if an aspiring Chinese writer from webnovel dot com is lurking here somehow, he's probably falling all over himself now to get to his computer to jot this idea down now.

You see me comrade? You watching? I won't even have my lawyer send you a bill. Just do a good job.

This is just heresy to the romance genre in general. How else would they generate drama over and over for hundreds of chapters?

Communicate? Smh. I ought to burn you at the Lovers Stake for that comment. But I've convinced the cupids with their ropes and chains to stand down....for now.

I saw a couple Japanese manga\novels like this. Won't be able to tell you the titles since I forgot, sorry. :blob_pat_sad:

gals who pose as expert degenerates but who are actually clueless virgins
similarly, ancient powerful entities who give love advices to humans while being clueless non-humans (Love advice from the duke of hell is pretty rad btw)

They are not, but I don't want to see age gap with shota. It was a clarification. I want works like The Teacher Can Not Tell Me Love, By Minamoto Motomi. I don't need another Negima.
Nnono i totally understood what you meant

(my 2nd part is kinda walltext chunky, hard to understand)

Anyway : Its just "age gap"
But mainstream creators just keep spamming shota, to the point of changing the definition. Its like most loli are now a mesugaki.
