>men and women interacting
Why would you want that.
Because most anime characters are human beings
Sora no Method did this.
for what other reason would men and women interact
Men and women can't interact without it being romantic. It goes against their very instincts.
Likewise, anime needs to express more forms of platonic love. There are other forms of love other than sexual. Maquia is one of the better ones I remember lately, off the top of my head, that revolves more so around familial love (not the incest fucking kind). On the other hand, I want all my VNs to have h-scenes of them fucking the heroine. I don't want all this PG-13 shit where no fucking happens or it fades to black and you're left speculating what, if anything, happened.
The only times men and women interact where it isn't based on romance or lust is:
>when they're already taken and faithful
or
>if they find the other so non-threatening/unattractive/etc. that they couldn't fathom a relationship with them as more than friends
What if both of them are gay?
That'd be really gay.
Or they are siblings
Romance is one of the universal human experiences, user. Why would you want to remove that? Does it remind you of the lack of it in your life?
But GitS SAC and 2nd Gig, Galko-chan, Pop Team Epic, the first season of Slayers, Paranoia Agent.
But there are plenty of them. Just stop shipping everyone like a fucking girl.
>universal
No.
Do you enjoy doing that, going online to mock single people?
Women and men interact just for breeding, if a man could be able to give birth, I wouldn't talk to a female ever. Don't fall for the """""friends""""" meme.
I make comics and I enjoy not putting in overt romance.
People can like eachother, but if the romance gets too powerful it *takes control* of the whole comic.
And also since straightforward "healthy" romance isn't super interesting to others, you're almost compelled to make misunderstandings, and rivals, and etc etc.
It's just not interesting to me.
The 2nd one still has romance aspects since it's one sided and she could always fall for him since kindness and hard work.
>she could always fall for him since kindness and hard work
Not in real life, which is what the post is about.
Anime is written by people who never interacted with the opposite sex, it's only natural that they can't write anything but sexual attraction between opposite sexes.
Maybe try watching more than ten series
