15 OP

[(Anonymous)]

For me, it's not even about main guy/main girl being obvious (I don't mind main guy/main girl when it's done well). It's about how Tamaki's romantic interest in Haruhi seems to revolve around his chauvinist fantasies of her being a perfect beautiful girly girl for him to woo, not her actual adorable clever deadpan genderqueer self. Now, Tamaki actually does seem to get along with her beautifully when they're both just being themselves and he's being kind and supportive, but the romance mostly seems to be about how Haruhi needs to be a girly girl and Tamaki her manly savior. :/ He's a sweet guy, but he's also kind of sexist. When he's being Haruhi's friend, the "sweet guy" part comes through most; but when he's trying to be Haruhi's boyfriend, the "sexist" part comes through most.

This only makes sense if you think Tamaki's delusions are actively romantic. They're not. Sexist, yes, but while he's imagining them, he's not envisioning himself in particular as her boyfriend, because Tamaki is thick as a brick and doesn't even actively know he has feelings for her.

The sweet guy part comes through when he's being genuine and not trying to fit people into boxes. That's why I think a romantic relationship with Haruhi works, because he pulls her out a little bit, adn she makes him pause to reflect a little. They effect eachother in ways they don't with any of the other Host Club members.

(Really, I think the cliche "everyone falls for the girl" is more tiresome.)
