Re: OP of 37

Also, Eiko strikes me as the cutesy type - even if she were old enough, the protagonist NEVER gets together with the cutesy type. It's like an RPG rule.

Does Squall end up with Selphie?
Does Cloud end up with Yuffie?
Does Tidus end up with Rikku?
Does Senel end up with Norma?
Does Luke end up with Anise? (again, the pedo)

Even if Eiko were not SIX, she still wouldn't even be close to approaching the type that I'm talking about because she's too cheerful and upbeat.

Actually, speaking as a Tidus/Rikku shipper and a Cloud/Yuffie shipper, I'd say that's entirely the choice of the fans. You can't say protaganist/spunky girl romance can never happen, because that's what fanfic is FOR. Hell, Yuffie is the only character who canonically kisses Cloud. So there. :3

And hey, japanese media and loli...*bricked*

In the fic, sure, you've got no arguments from me, but it canon?

I can't think of one example where it actually happens. (And the date scenario with Yuffie is an optional, so it doesn't reeeally count).

Re: OP of 37

[nadleeh]

I think it's unfair to write something off as "it's optional, so itdoesn't count". Games give you the option of choosing relationship values for a reason, after all!

In FFX, you get a scene with whoever you have the highest relationship with. I got Lulu my first playthrough, and Rikku on my second. On both, you have the option of choosing to say "I'd rather have you, [Character]" in response to a question about Yuna.

In FF7, I think it's incredibly telling that Yuffie is the only one to kiss him.

In Tales of Symphonia, the spunky-girl Sheena has a very obvious crush on Lloyd (main character). And again, with a high relationship value, his interactions with her can outweigh the 'canon' bias towards Colette (female lead).

I don't think you can say that there IS a canon love thing in FF7, actually. Nomura has said that he deliberately didn't resolve the Cloud-Tifa-Aeris triangle - there's no reason why Yuffie is any less of a candidate.

[tl;dr - Miri is a shipbitch who thinks too deeply about stuff.]

Does Vaan end up with Pene... oh.
Does Sora end up with Kai... oh. (Yeah, sorry, Kairi giggles, skips school, runs races, etc. She's more the cutesy type than the gentle soul type).

Other than that I can't talk, because I mostly have Atlus/SMT games on my shelf, and they tend to lack the cutesy sorts, but.

Re: OP of 37

I haven't finished FFXII, so I didn't know that. If you're talking general trends, in the majority of cases it doesn't happen. I was making a generalization, I admit.
