Relationship Reset Button: Difference between revisions

They've been doing the [[Will They or Won't They?]] dance for a while, or maybe they've always been [[Star-Crossed Lovers]]. Now finally they've actually [[Relationship Upgrade|gotten together]]. What does this mean? It means that something's about to happen so that for one--andone—and only one--ofone—of them, their relationship never happened. Usually that "something" will either be a form of [[Easy Amnesia]], a suspiciously convenient [[Cosmic Retcon]] combined with [[Ripple-Effect-Proof Memory]], or some brand of [[Literal Split Personality]].

* [[Yu-Gi-Oh! 5D's]]: The Dark Signer arc placed quite a bit of focus on the development of the relationship between [[The Rival|Jack]] [[Jerk with a Heart of Gold|Atlas]] and [[Intrepid Reporter|Carly]] [[Cute Clumsy Girl|Nagisa]], going as far as {{spoiler|mutual [[Love Confession|Love Confessions]]s and ''attempted'' [[Together in Death]] when Carly dies and [[Back From the Dead|becomes]] a [[Love Makes You Evil|Dark]] [[Brainwashed and Crazy|Signer]] and Jack is [[Kill the Ones You Love|forced to kill her.]] At the end of the season, however, a [[Deus Ex Machina]] [[Death Is Cheap|brings Carly back to life]], [[Laser-Guided Amnesia|stripping her of her memories]] of her time as a Dark Signer in the process.}} Their relationship is never developed or brought up again in the later arcs--Carlyarcs—Carly is reduced to [[Comic Relief]] on the same level of significance as the other [[Fan Girl|Fan Girls]]s in Jack's newly-acquired harem, and Jack essentially ignores her for the rest of the series, as if he forgot the whole thing, too. No wonder the shippers are mad.
