Love At First Sight/Web Comics
Examples of Love At First Sight in Web Comics include:
- The Law of Purple: Red falls for Rose on first sight. Much of the attraction is that she's thrashing a purse-snatcher at the time, as seen here.
- In Girl Genius, Zola plans to manage her meeting with the heir to the Storm King—and make it look like Love At First Sight.
- Zeetha's first meeting with Higgs is like this. For her. For him, its one of the few things that terrifies him.
- Minus: what happens when Cupid gets really out of hand.
- Xkcd: This comic
- Homestuck: Trolls, due to Bizarre Alien Reproduction, have a form of romance which is essentially hateful archnemesishood. The first time Karkat sees John, he is instantly struck by total, all-consuming, overwhelming hate, complete with spade-shaped Wingding Eyes.
- And then there's Vriska and... Nicolas Cage.
- Subverted in Dresden Codak. Kimiko sees a handsome guy with an FM-2030 book and instantly turns into a tongue-tied twit, fantasising about either an idyllic relationship (on an airship!) or a UST-laden scholarly rivalry. See here. Unfortunately for her, he turns out to be kind of a moron.
- In Endstone, Jon disowns believing in this when he first met Kyri.
- Ls Empire has an entire species (Kayoss) that falls in love this way, mainly due to their Magic Genetics. This does have a side effect (referred to as Love Struck) which involves light headedness, drooling from the eyes, and passing out.
