Stupid Anime Cliches 2

#56 - The Law of Romance

There is no such thing as a romantic couple when you are first introduced to the main characters of an anime. Relationships, if they occur at all, develop extremely gradually over time; and they almost always involve one of them (the male or female) embarrassing themselves repeatedly trying to impress the other. Eventually, the one who isn't embarrassing him / herself will feel sorry for the one who is, and they will instantly become a couple.
