What's the enjoyment of watching romance Yea Forums?

>People still rooting for the childhood friend.
Why? They're so boring and predictable and believe they should be higher up the harem rankings due to knowing the MC earlier than the others, Fuck childhood friends in romance shows.

Eh, I was like this at 16 but now I'm unfazed by it. Also after OMK nothing can make me feel sadder for a character romantically speaking.

Is there anything more pathetic than self inserting in fiction?

Seeing the journey of the two is enjoyable, but anything post the hookup/confession period is braindead boring cuckoldshit for emotional female viewers.
Men prefer the thrill of the hunt, and not the stagnant boredom which comes after the prey is captured. It's very much true for any story as well, when it's being watched by a male viewer. Female viewers prefer the sexual and emotional side of it, so basically the actual romance which comes after the hookup.

Most anime romances suck ass.
It's not because I'm a lonely loser like people ITT.
I've been spoiled by books.

Enjoying Kaguya?

Golden Time is far better than most the garbage series where it takes a million of years for the characters to confess.

See .

As a functioning human being, I have the capacity to be happy for others. Furthermore, their happiness makes me happy. It's similar to how (non-autistic) people cry at weddings.

I enjoy it when its stuff like Kaguya-sama or Nozaki-kun that are more comedy than anything, stuff like Fruits Basket this season just bores me
