I'm talking about those like Nina and Tsujiai in Ultra Maniac, Chizuru and Ryuu in Kimi ni Todoke, Takenaga and Noi in The Wallflower, Akira and Tsubaki in Rockin' Heaven, etc. etc. I personally prefer the story of the beta couple most of the time, since they are less in the spotlight and their relationship almost always seems more genuine. They also add extra dimensions to the main couples story most of the time (e.g. Main couple learn from their relationship). Have I missed some great pairings that you love? Do tell! I must've not read many series that have strong beta couples, and I don't want to overlook any

Others I like: Kiyoshi/Rena from Dengeki Daisy Eun Taek/Bora from Cheese in the Trap Tadashi/Akira from Special A Watanuki/Karuta from Youko x Boku SS Ryu/Chizuru from Kimi Ni Todoke

With the protagonist being extremely slow and quite idiotic at times, I soon found myself following the romantic development between the main couple's best friends. Simply adorable! And another beta pairing you shouldn't miss: Yoshii Rio and Miyagawa Takeru from Love So Life by KOUCHI Kaede! How can you not root for them, after Spoiler (mouse over to view) Rio showed such bravery and publicly kissed Takeru-kun on the lips in order to make him understand her feelings? Way to go, girl! I secretly ship Kiki and Mitsuhide from AKIZUKI Sorata's Akagami no Shirayukihime although I'm not sure if it's going to happen at all. ________________ Savour: Blood Alone Otoyomegatari Gangsta.
