Love Dodecahedron: Difference between revisions

* ''[[Pandora Hearts]]'': Between the main character, Oz,'s [[Ship Tease|shippy moments]] with just about ''[[Launcher of a Thousand Ships|everyone]]'' -- [[Magically-Binding Contract|Alice]], [[Bodyguard Crush|Gil]], Sharon, Echo and [[Belligerent Sexual Tension|Elliot]] are only the tip of the iceburg -- and all the [[Foe Yay]] that goes around (Vincent especially contributes to it), it's no wonder fandom is [[Ship-to-Ship Combat|divided]] when it comes to pairings.

* ''[[Nagasarete Airantou]]'' [[Unwanted Harem|pretty much comes with being the only guy on an island full of females that he can't escape from]]

* Subverted slightly in the manga ''Wa!'', while there is a compilcated love comedy situation involving many characters, the path of crushes and admiration is written so that it forms a perfect circle. A loves B who loves C who loves D who loves E who loves F who loves A. How this will be eventually resolved is anyone's guess.

* ''[[Kaguyahime]]'': Would be a simple cyclic [[Love Triangle]], except everybody wants Akira. Except Yui, whose feeling towards Akira are ambiguous while he seems to only live for Midori. Midori, like everybody, wants Akira. Akira, of course, wants Yui -- and Mayu, but won't let herself touch Mayu. Mayu loves Akira but thinks sex is a horrible, dirty thing, and threatens/blackmails her into promising not to ever sleep with anyone. Oh, and everybody wants Akira. And then there's everybody else.

* ''[[To Aru Majutsu no Index]]'' has Touma's immense harem complicated by: the fake Unabara {{spoiler|Eztali}}, lesbian [[Stalker with a Crush]] Kuroko, and who knows how many other Fangirls/fanboys who want Misaka; among other characters (trying to get the list and directions together is a hefty task).

** And that's just Touma's harem.

* ''[[Vampire Game]]'' runs on this. Lucy loves Ashley loves Leene is crazy about Yuujel who's got a thing for Ishtar who's in love with Darres who ''she'' thinks is in love with Selen who actually loves Galahad. Laphiji loves Seiliez likes Ishtar while everyone thinks he's sleeping with his mom but he's actually banging Sharlen who's also doing Jened who raped the Old Man of the Sea's daughter and has a creepy obsession with Falan only matched by Illsaide's creepy obsession with Falan who herself loves Illsaide but who is also very fond of Vord who loves Ishtar. Also on the Ishtar-loveboat is Duzell, who also has feelings for Illsaide and used to have a thing with {{spoiler|Rishas/Lailis}} while flirting up a storm with Diaage and having some serious [[Foe Yay]] with Phelios. Phelios, meanwhile, had an affair with {{spoiler|Diaage}} while telling Duzell "I want you to be mine". Lailis loves Duzell but Lassen loves ''her''. Hume loves Illsaide and Jill loves Maura loves Jill. Nobody loves Krai.

* ''[[Fairy Tail]]'' actually doesn't have a [[Love Dodecahedron]], although that doesn't stop Juvia from thinking there is.

*** Basically, Karkat had a hatecrush on John, and recent pesterlogs indicate that he may be developing flushed feelings for Jade. Meanwhile, Karkat also believes that Vriska is crushing on John, though John is unsure about this when Karkat tells him, and Terezi has been acting rather flirtatiously towards Dave, though when questioned on the subject by Rose, Dave responded that his and Terezi's relationship was nothing more than an "interspecies partnership in incredibly shitty cartooning."

*** and now there's more: <ref>Eridan kills Feferi and Kanaya, Ruining Sollux's relationship. Gamzee goes nuts and kills Equius and Nepeta, and Vriska offs Tavros for maturing far too late for Vriska's liking. Kanaya comes back as a vampire and beats up Gamzee and Vriska, then kills Eridan. Vriska now has crush on Kanaya and Feferi, Equius, Nepeta and Tavros are dead. Now Tavros is hangng with a dead dave and an Aradia who is messing up all the deam bubbles letting all the dead trolls and kids visit each other's bubbles, upturning pretty much every canon ship ever.</ref>

*** And that's not all! <ref>Karkat, admits he's flushed for Terezi, while future!Karkat pooints out that he's been hateflirting with her too. He's also worried Terezi and Dave may have a thing going on. Dave called Roxy a "choice babe" without knowledge that that was his mom. Fans are also debating whether [[Lipstick Lesbian|Kanaya]]'s hatred for [[Lethal Joke Character|Gamzee]] is platonic or not.</ref>

* All of the major characters in ''[[Out There]]'', with the notable exception of John, have at one time or another been infatuated with at least one of the other major characters. Miriam, as the main character, has dated, had flings with, or been otherwise at least temporarily fascinated with no less than 8 major characters: {{spoiler|'''John''' (unrequited love/lust), '''Wally''' (fling, as part of the back story), '''Chuck''' ("officially" dated), '''Clayton''' (aborted fling), '''Sherry''' (unconfirmed, but strongly implied, past fling and/or relationship), '''Rod''' (fling), '''Steven''' ("officially" dated), and '''Araceli''' (infatuation)}}; this doesn't even cover the list of characters (most of them minor or non-recurring characters) who have been at least temporarily captivated by ''her''. While Miriam holds the record in all love/lust categories, Sherry's list is almost as impressive (embarrassing?): {{spoiler|'''Steven''' (dated, as part of the back story), '''John''' (brief, and relatively mild, infatuation during a short period of essentially platonic dating), '''Chuck''' (big-time crush, finally culminating in an "official" relationship that is ongoing), '''Rod''' (brief interest until he "blew it"), '''Clayton''' (one-sided—he wants her, she's repulsed), '''Araceli''' (one-sided—Sherry is clueless about Ari's infatuation), and of course, '''Miriam''' (unconfirmed).}} ''Out There'' is unabashedly a soap opera.
