Magistel and Kurosawa from Onani Master Kurosawa. The reader expected that they would be together by how these two people are alike and shared the same interest, then that brocolli guy out of nowhere just become her boyfriend. I felt Takigawa lead on Kurosawa..

Airi Sena and Shingo Uryu from Mashiroiro Symphony. Airi is built up to be the winner during the first half of the series and suddenly the relationship between her and Uryu disappears without any kind of denial from either party.
[mod edit: removed unnecessary barb; could be discussed in the anime thread if you want to pursue that argument]

Noe X Shinichiro from True Tears. I found their brief time as boyfriend/girlfriend to make for extremely compelling romance. My favorite non-canon het anime romance of all-time.
Yorito X Mana from Sola. I liked most of the options Yorito had in this anime, but I found Mana very endearing. She was like the perfect bro to Yorito, only as a cute girl. I think it was clear she had a crush on him, and the two could have had a really beautiful relationship. Narumi X Haruka from Kimi ga Nozomu Eien. Haruka is a lovely character that deserved much better than what happened, and it was clear how deeply Narumi loved her. If not for truly nightmarish circumstances, I'm sure this pairing would have worked out, and probably had been comparable to Tomoya and Nagisa from Clannad! Yui X Azusa from K-On! The K-On movie sold me on this pairing. Natsumi X Saki from Natsuiro Kiseki One scene between them hinted at a serious romantic confession. That, and a very tight bond between them, was all my yuri goggles needed. Madoka X Sayaka from Madoka Magica. This is where I go the most into controversial territory, I'm sure. But being a guy who tends to wear yuri goggles at almost all times, their very first shared scene together had a lasting impact on me... and it's in that scene that Sayaka loudly declared she would make Madoka her wife, lol. I also saw a lot of nice, subtle hints throughout the anime of Sayaka being very protective of Madoka, while Madoka's strong reaction to what happened to Sayaka in the second half of the anime struck me as going a bit beyond friendship alone. Don't worry, Madoka/Homura shippers, I get the appeal of that "canon pairing" as well, but Madoka/Sayaka simply clicked for me in a big way. Special Mention: Yuiichi X Shiori from Kanon I felt that Shiori, more than any other Kanon heroine, had the best romantic chemistry with Yuiichi. I also felt that Shiori was the most mature of the Kanon heroines - The one most able to rise to Yuiichi's conversational level. Why is this a special mention? Because I honestly view the Kanon anime's ending as being ambiguous enough to leave this as a canon possibility.

In general I tend to have a canon radar so I usually root for and know who the main couple are.
However I was disappointed in Honey & Clover that Hagu did not end up with Spoiler:
At the same time though the series has one of my most favorite unrequited love stories between Hagu & Spoiler:

But no the ending wasn't ambiguous. It obviously leads with Yuuichi being arrested for being a pedo and Mai has to come bail him out since Ayu's not really underage and then... Whoops. That is how it ended, for me. In all seriousness, Shiori is amazing, and Clannad was a clear nod to that. Edit: Wow, pretty much every favorite female character of mine gets shafted in the romance department. /bitter

Nishino x Junpei (Ichigo 100%) - Nvm, it did happen
Yoshinori x Minamo (Yubisaki Milk Tea) - they're also a good pair, compared to the other ending. Yuzuki x Enma Ai (Hell Girl Season 3) - yuri ftw

Yeah, that's part of the reason I never really got into Yuuichi/Ayu - Even as a teenager, Ayu looks underaged for Yuuichi, lol.

Infinite Stratos: Ichika x Rin
Kono kana ni hitori imouto ga iru: Shougo x Miyabi My heart bleeds. Both twintail tsunderes lost. OreImo: Kyousuke x Ruri BokuTomo: Kodaka x Sena Both in slice-of-life series involving school clubs. Bleach: Ichigo x Rukia Naruto: Naruto x Sakura One Piece: Luffy x Nami All 3 involve the lead hero and lead heroine. Though the big 3 haven't ended yet, nothing's settled in the relationships. Yumekui Merry: Yumeji x Merry |

Luckily my memory seems to have not enough room for everything, so usually when a show doesn't go with my favorite couple it won't last long in my memory either.
But Triple_R reminded me of Kanon, where I 'd preferred Nayuki, the MC's cousin, instead of that girl who came out of nowhere. It pissed me off, but ten years ago I was a noob so I was taken off-guard. Another anime that I had forgotten is Zegapain, I totally was all for Shizuno, where sadly from the very start I had the feeling that she would have ended alone. And the whole concept of being forgotten really was sad enough even without having to have her rival being an osananajimi, like adding insult to injury for me But the couple I really liked was Sen x Ritsuko from Sakamichi, ok, I dropped the series after six or seven episodes (basically when I felt the show had taken a slippery slope. For that reason I then spoiled the ending, so dropping the show was inevitable, and reading here and there that was the best choice I could have made). They were so good together. If only that MC hasn't been the MC of the show. Once in a life I rooted for a childhood friend character I got punished Anyways, if SnA had been a romance anime instead of a coming of age one it could have get near True Tears in terms of awesomeness. Sadly it didn't.

I'm more of a Mitsuki sympathizer , even though she won in the end. She had to go through a lot of crap, but I'm glad Narumi finally gotten gotten his sense's in check. Before all of the relationship back in high school, I think Narumi liked Mitsuki, but she pushed Haruka on him and that's where the focus was slowly shifted. I like Haruka too, because both girls are both deserving of having a good relationship.
