Well I think the question becomes is really "with love" the right way to look at the world.
If it's just about seeing stuff I could even say: "Without LSD it can't be seen". No one can debate that.
It is interesting to note that there is a widespread agreement that "love is blind", in most cases it's true.
If you think s/he's the most beautiful woman/man in the world there's something wrong with your eyes or your mind.
Love is great, I'm not arguing that, but it's definitely not the right way to see the world for what it is.
I have no obligation to love Ryuukishi's story and characters. I'll love his story and their characters if he can make me love them. That's what he must do. If I don't love them, that's his fault not mine. Well maybe it's not his fault, it's not like he can make his story liked by everyone, but that's certainly what an author should strive for and certainly no one can expect a reader to love a story and their characters a priori.
