Enemies to lovers tropes

[usagi-k]

i rarely ever enjoy the trope but i think thats less of me not liking the concept and more so the fact that i dont enjoy the way it's written for most romances since it usually leads to one person compromising themselves for the sake of the other which kind of takes away from the entire relationship since the main crux of their tension and banter is gone now ;;

when it's done well tho i am a big fan !! especially since i did really really enjoy linus from mistonia and miyabi from unlogical and i think both of those couples fall under enemies to lovers ^^

MY FAVOURITE TROPE even if i rarely (imo) see it in otome games, throughout all the otome games i played i may have seen like 4-5..WE NEED MORE OF THIS TROPE

I'm a fan of the enemies-to-lovers trope. Although I know it's a silly trope from a realistic perspective and usually doesn't reflect well on the characters' mental health ;).
I think it's a bit easier to portray this in books or TV shows; in games, it seems pretty difficult to me. I mean, you have to somehow show the characters' development and give them choices that make the player really want to, well, choose them.
I can't recall ever coming across a really well-executed theme like this in any game (not just otome games). It's a shame, because it's kind of my little guilty pleasure.

I second this!!! it's always being towards imbalanced relationship and i hate to see them got mistreated ಠ⁠﹏⁠ಠ

It is such a good trope but it seems like more often than not it loses its edge, which isn't a bad thing but they can let them be at each other's throats a little longer before becoming lovebirds.

Yes!!! For some reason, they move way too quickly to the fluffy romance part, when I'm actually here for the absolute chaos and conflict :(( Truthfully, I love it when they still tear each other apart even after falling in love xDddd
