Edit: I like the KiraxLacus pairing even if it is a bit too conservative for my tastes. Though being conservative surely doesn't mean that they don't love each other. It's pretty stupid to measure an abstract concept through physical actions. |

Again, my point is that you keep saying that their depiction is bad while seemingly ignoring what they actually depict. |

And his point is what they actually depict is bad. I'm inclined to agree, given just how much their interactions were depicted in a series of vacuums rather than taken as a whole, and even if you ignore that it feels more like trying to build a relationship off of instant attraction and emotional weaknesses rather than legitimate maturing feelings.

0 MPH is not a slower fucking pace! It's not even a pace at all, it's NOTHING. It's one moment they're not a couple and the next they are AND THEY'RE STILL DOING NOTHING. And they expect people to eat this shit up and the Japanese do! It fucking tells people it's alright to not develop relationships they have no fucking use for in the stories they write!
I don't care that there's a timeskip that gives Kira and Lacus two years to "develop" a relationship, if the people don't see it happening then it's not fucking development, is it? It's fan pandering is what it is!

Makes me wonder which generation they're trying to pander to since I'm sure many younger Japanese wouldn't really like to be in such a relationship as emotionless and detached as that.

At least Shinn matured out of that by the end and let go of his hate and they stayed a couple after everything had settled down. There's also the Shinn and Lunamaria friendship since they knew each other before Destiny. Than when Shinn was extremely jealous when Athrun got the Savior and Lunamaria wanted to see his cool Red Gundam and not Shinn's Gundam. Couldn't help laughing at that scene since Athrun was oblivious and being a gentleman while Shinn was angry but the look on his face made it seem like he didn't even know why he was angry over this. |

Regarding Mu: Seriously, if putting your life on the line to (directly) protect the one you love from death itself is not “healthy”, I don’t wanna know what you consider as “healthy relationship”. Note: Mu has gone through a lot of dangerous situations because he’s a soldier on the frontline of war. It’s not like he’s looking for it or suicidal . As for Kiracus realtionship, let’s just count the development points shall we : Spoiler for Kiracus development:

Wow, someone here is actually not bright enough to take my half-assed “chronological romantic development list” seriously. Did you not read what I wrote? I said, “take it with a grain of salt”. Or maybe you don’t know what that means?
Quote:
I don’t even have to respond to all your reply coz most of it miss my point spectacularly. Also, I see that monster is already kind enough to respond to all your reply to me (thanx very much, monster). So, I’ll just say this to you: I make the “development list” just to focus on the “love points” that both Kira & Lacus get for each interaction they get. Once again, I didn’t make the list to stress or justify any events that I wrote coz my focus is the “romantic” interactions and “love points” (the bolded parts). The events that I wrote there, are plainly what was presented in the anime. Why do you even have to argue that? Do you also want to deny the things that actually happens in SEED? The “love points” itself is my own concept, but I already told you that it’s just for the lulz. Note: Just so you know, I’m not interested in “shipping wars” in SEED. I just happened to wrote about Kira & Lacus’ romantic development. It doesn’t mean I’m in “Team Lacus”. Don’t you get it?

Indeed, had Fllay lived Kira and her would have hooked back up together. It's because she died that Lacus was taken up by Kira. Good thing they avoided that issue with Shinn by making him see Stella has his dead sister and not a lover so even if she lives it doesn't change his relationship with Lunamaria.
