20 Anime Girls Who Fell For The More Unpopular Guy
The romance genre is often a combination of all sorts of anime tropes and clichés. However, a fan favorite seems to be the popular girl falling for an unpopular guy. This trope is so embedded in the genre that audiences will be able to spot it across a wide variety of relationships and demographics. It's typically more common in shonen, which is targeted at men and caters to the fantasy of the most beautiful girl going for the most unlikely of guys, but even shojo doesn't completely escape this trend.
Despite the inherent nature of this trope as a fantasy, these types of relationships have many sweet moments and qualities that make the audience want to root for the characters involved. Everybody loves an underdog, and watching two people come together in spite of their differences is always rewarding when it pays off in the end.
