The Four Loves: Difference between revisions

Line 159:
** Maka sits down and gives up in the ''middle of a fight'' in the Sloth chapter of the Book of Eibon. When she finally breaks the hold the book has over her, Soul doesn't even let her apologize, but spends the rest of the arc either [[Aw, Look -- They Really Do Love Each Other|holding her or holding her hand]].
** Kid {{spoiler|nearly destroys the world with the Madness of Order}}, only to have Black*Star, whom often tries to beat him up ''for no apparent reason'', go and get him.
:: And this is just to name a few.
* In ''[[Yuri!!! on Ice]]'', after the assignment mentioned in above, Victor Nikiforov assigns Yuri Plisetsky with a program set with a song named "On Love: Agape", a slower and softer version of "On Love: Eros", whose choreography is deliberately designed to show innocence and gratefulness. Yuri, a young and arrogant skating prodigy that has just gone up to the senior category since the juniors has no challenge for him anymore, suddenly finds himself with a routine where he can do the moves but he cannot convey the emotion became he has never feel selfless love himself. Is only when he notices the unconditional love and support he has ''received'' from his grandpa (who raised him and has supported him to the best of his possibilities) that he finally connects with the program and performs it as it was intended to be.

Line 175 ⟶ 176:
** Though tragically enough, it's his inability to function without having someone fill the position in each of the loves (his desperate desire to be loved and needed by people) that eventually creates the instability needed for him to be the [[Big Bad]] of [[Yggdra Union]] (well, for a certain [[Gray and Gray Morality|definition of bad]] anyways)
* In ''[[Radiant Historia]]'', [[The Hero]] believes this separates himself from the [[Big Bad]].
* In ''Mother3[[Mother 3]]'', Lucas' signature ability (PK Love) is a weaponized form of this. It's also required to {{spoiler|pull the Seven Needles}}.
* ''[[Gaia Online]]''{{'}}s "Sainte Ciel" Evolving Item told the story of a nun trying to rescue the princess she loved from an evil demon. You could choose between Eros and Agape routes; if you chose Agape, Ciel would pull a [[Heroic Sacrifice]] to rescue Princess Rosamund. A sequel item, "[[Badass Princess|Rosamund's]] [[Roaring Rampage of Revenge|Revenge]]", suggests that [[Road Cone|this is the canon route]].
