This week's poll by ma7a is about your favorite romance scenario in terms of how the couples and love relationships are organized. You prefer keeping it simple with just a single couple? Or you prefer getting more complicated such that you need a whole directed graph explaining who likes who?

You can submit poll ideas here (and try to keep them manga/anime-related)
http://www.mangaupdates.com/showtopic.php?tid=3903

Option 6 for me.

I don't like romance all that much, but if I read something with a prominent love story theme, I prefer having multiple couples who all get time in the spotlight, rather than one super-alpha couple that's always making up and breaking up and beating about the bush trying to vocalize their feelings just so the writer can drag the romantic tension out over the entirety of the series. I dislike love polygons intensely, though: I like it when all the couples are clearly separate and are not pining after other people's love interests.

Just one pairing here.

In the previous poll, I voted as a troll for four times. Every time I close my browser, the poll resets for me so I can troll 😉 I won't do it again though 🙂

That... I like how you explain it 😀 , I feel the same too, but I don't really mind couples not being clearly seperated

Multiple couples
cuz why should only one pair get to be together and none for the others
its why i don't like some romance when the side characters dont get that chance

I do like the drama when more than one couple are involved, with the misunderstandings and all types of shit is flying everywhere. But it does, usually more than once, make me rage a bit. So I chose the option that makes me rage the least yet I still enjoy.

Just one pairing please XD

LOL a love quarter for more....shouldn't it be for less since it's 1/4, while a love foursome is 4 people XD, anyways for me it would be either 1 pairing or none at all, drama in manga quickly goes crazy so I opt out of that

Multiple couples!!

It keeps things interesting.

Though I must confess, I do like love triangles (ONLY if it's done right!! And he/she BETTER end up with my favorite at the end of it.) Harem (and Reverse Harem) is always fun too, if I'm in the mood for it.

Well, most harem in manga are for comedy and not really for romance.

Multiple couples, cause I always tend to ship the side characters, sometimes even more than the main couple.
Only one pairing is perfectly fine too, just no love polygon or even a harem. Ugh -_-

Oh god, how on earth can your mind stand so much confusion? I read some Kimi No Iru Machi (probably got the name wrong) and after around 150 chapters I was truly pissed off. I can't even start to imagine how many conflicts between couples/love interests in School Rumble. Oh God, my brain is gonna explode just by thinking about it.
One Pairing please.
