Like I said earlier.SarahtheBoring wrote:No, like characters. You know, that think things and feel things other than "yes, master, may I soap myself again for you, master."
There is much to be said for age and wisdom.

Like you really feel for the characters and can relate to them. I hate those love stories that are just ALLL happy times, cause real love isn't like that... Anyway, it'd be nice if someone gave me some suggestions
(One of my fav romantic animes, is chobits.)
Kamishiro Maiku was orphaned at a young age (this sounds a bit too familiar...), and the only thing remaining from his past is a photo of him as a child. In the photo, he is playing with another girl in a wading pool with the backdrop of a big house. Now in his first year of high school, Maiku left the orphanage he was in, took up a job as a programmer, and rented this house in the hope of reclaiming something of his memories.
One day, two girls show up at his doorstep, each bearing the same photo and insisting that they could be his relatives. What's a guy going to do in this situation? Who is the relative and who is the stranger?
Like showers of rain on the barren desert of male lead roles, we are blessed with a character who *doesn't* fall into the harem loser stereotype. Put Maiku in a ring with, say, Keitarou from Love Hina and you'll see that he has a lot going for him - he's got a paying job as a programmer (left hook!), he's responsible (right cross!) and so in control of his hormones that he'd make a nun look weird (K.O!).
