@FluffyCow: I agree, it's very annoying indeed. However, in this case, Kuroko really doesn't respect Misaka's boundary because she believes she can make Misaka fall in love with her. Kuroko's approach to love is actually a bit toxic like that.
which makes sense btw because espers with high levels tend to be narcissistic and lacks common sense; some can even be highly unhinged
"This art is absolutely gorgeous, but Byleth x Edelgard forever!"
Funnily enough, I don't think Byleth would be that opposed to sharing. She doesn't seem to know jealousy and lack the preconceptions most people have. Edelgard though, I doubt she has the mindset for an open relationship, even one where she's the only one having a harem xD
@zokoi I think you're speaking from a perspective that's focusing on her agency as a character, and the in world reasoning. Where as I'm talking about the author and how the author is writing this trope I dislike.
@juanelric More so I'd say a product of a time more accepting of homophobia, as the specific trope is one that's making a "joke" at the expense of homosexuality. A trope I at least think I see far less in recent times, as LGBTQ+ acceptance has been increasing. I also feel fanservice is a different topic for another time.
