If TTGL itself is a reconstruction of the Super Robot genre, then Simon/Nia is a faithful reconstruction of the concept of true love.
... I'll be interested to see how you back that statement up. I don't really see the if/then correlation between the two.
I suppose my problem is that I never saw any development between the two, or even in Nia herself. She comes "packaged" purely to "make Simon better"--hell, she even comes in a box. And the seven years in which their relationship "developed" aren't even shown. Yes Simon loves Nia and Nia loves Simon ... but I do not see how that relationship is particularly amazing. It. Just is.
