In the spirit of Valentine's Day and totally not because I am bored and feeling frivolous, what are some of your favorite love stories from any non-videogame medium?
Inuyasha and Kagome.
You can't argue with the music.
At the time I first watched it, Inuyasha was probably the most "romance oriented" thing I had ever encountered. There are undoubtedly much better love stories out there as even I acknowledge Ms. Takahashi was a bit repetitive. Also I can see why some people hate the "obvious love story" story. And yet I still find their relationship extremely touching and beautiful. Nostalgia? Yes, that is most assuredly a factor. And yet I feel they had several very powerful moments throughout the series.
Nephrite & Molly/Naru - Sailor Moon
Train & Saya - Black Cat
Junta, Karin & Ami - DNAČ
Itroutaka & Iori - I''s
Keitaro & Naru - Love Hina
And we all know we love it: Titanic.
I love the story of Sarah and Chuck in Chuck. Just... amazing!
David and Elise from The Adjustment Bureau. Matt Damon and Emily Blunt's chemistry was so goddamn good in that movie.

Cowboy Bebop - Spike and Juliet. Such a tragic tale, and one of the greatest endings of all time.
Trigun - Wolfwood and Millie. Also ends in sadness. :cry:
Rocky Horror Picture Show - Frank and everyone. Also kind of a sad ending.
Teen Titans - Robin and Starfire, as well as Beast Boy and Terra, the later of which was another sad ending to it. :cry:
...Yeah, I have a thing for love stories that end saddly. :p
Edit: Add in Seras and Pip from Hellsing Ultimate.
i love the story of van helsing...
Julia! But yes, I looove them. :love:Quote:

Jim Halpert and Pam Beesley, though I like them better pre-marriage (The Office).
I'm trying to think of chick flicks but I'm coming up short, same with romantic books. As much as romantic tension between characters really makes me squee, I think that I kindof prefer most of my stories to be without being centered around it.
Why the hell did I write Juliet? XD
Cause you were thinking of Romeo and Juliet and wanted to name them, too :love:
I didn't like Romeo and Juliet. XD
I'll chalk it up to it was after my vein collapsed and smurfed with the blood flow to my brain. ;P
MARS is still my favorite manga.
