One example is 'Fruits Basket'. Kyo is a bit of a 'bad boy' with his hot - tempered nature at times, and Tohru is a girl who has a complex family situation. Their love story unfolds gradually as they get to know each other better in a world filled with the mystery of the zodiac curse.
Growth. As they fall in love, the bad boy and bad girl usually grow as characters. In 'Kimi ni Todoke', Sawako, who was seen as an odd girl, and Kazehaya, a popular boy, both grow and learn from their relationship. They change for the better, leaving behind some of their 'bad' traits as they develop a deeper connection.
One common theme is the initial self - consciousness. The short boy might feel insecure about his height compared to the tall girl, and vice versa. For example, in some stories, the boy may worry that he doesn't look 'manly' enough beside the taller girl. Another theme is the breaking of stereotypes. They often go against the typical image of a 'tall and strong male' and 'short and petite female' couple. It shows that love can exist between two people regardless of physical differences.
One classic is 'Your Lie in April'. The boy, Kousei, is a pianist who has lost his ability to hear the sound of his own playing after his mother's death. Then he meets Kaori, a violinist. Their relationship grows as they make music together, and it's a beautiful yet bittersweet love story.
There are many anime, novels, and anime works about boys turning into girls. Here are some examples:
1.<< Index of Forbidden Magic Books >>: This work tells the story of the protagonist, Tama Sujo, who entered the super electromagnetic gun to learn magic. In the story, Tama Ujo was originally a boy, but under certain circumstances, he was given a female body.
[2]" My Sister Can't Be That Cute ": This work tells the story between the male and female leads. The male lead was originally an office worker, but in an accident, he became a girl. The female lead was a person without a gender.
3 " The Boy Who Became a Girl ": This work tells the story between the protagonist and the boy who became a girl. The protagonist was originally a boy, but under certain circumstances, he became a girl. Many of the characters in this work had changed and created interesting plots.
4. Tokyo Ghoul: This work tells the story of a battle between a human and a ghoul. The protagonist of the story was a high school student who had his body turned into a girl in an accident.
These are just a few examples. There are many other works, all of which have their own unique storyline and style.
One common theme is the idea of breaking stereotypes. Usually, there are certain expectations about how couples should look like in terms of height and build. In these stories, they defy those norms. For example, in 'My Love Story!!', Takeo doesn't fit the typical image of a romantic lead because of his large size, but his relationship with Rinko shows that love doesn't depend on appearance.
There's also 'Horimiya'. In this anime, Hori is a popular girl who has a different side to her at home, and Miyamura is a seemingly quiet and short boy with piercings and tattoos (hidden at school). Their relationship starts in an unexpected way as they get to know each other better outside of school, and it gradually turns into a sweet love story.
One such anime could be 'My Love Story!!'. In this anime, Takeo Gouda is a tall and rather intimidating - looking boy with a heart of gold, while Rinko Yamato is a petite and cute girl. Their relationship develops in a very sweet and endearing way, filled with many heart - warming moments as they navigate their feelings for each other.
There's 'Toradora!' where the story focuses on the meeting and evolving relationship between the main male and female characters. The plot is engaging and full of surprises.
The boy and the girl met in a coffee shop. They only caught a glimpse of each other by chance, but they left a deep impression on each other. As time passed, they often went to cafes to chat, play games, and even watch movies together.
Their relationship became closer and closer, and the boy began to realize his feelings for the girl. But he wasn't sure if the girl felt the same way. So he made a secret request, hoping that the girl could talk to him. The girl agreed and they spent the night talking in the cafe. The girl told the boy how she felt about him.
The boy was happy to hear the news, but he also realized that he needed to make some decisions. He didn't want to hurt the girl's feelings, but he also didn't want to give up his pursuit. So the boy proposed a test to the girl. The girl needed to invite him to travel with her on a weekend to see if the relationship between them could withstand the test.
The girl gladly accepted the challenge and they made a trip plan together and set off. The boy knew that the girl was a very independent and confident person, so he believed that they would have a good weekend.
When they arrived at their destination, the boy was attracted by the girl's beautiful scenery and lovely place. They explored the city together, tasted delicious food together, and spent an unforgettable time together. On the last day of the trip, the boy confessed to the girl and the girl gladly accepted his confession.
They had now become important figures in each other's lives, and their feelings for each other had become stronger and deeper. The love story between a boy and a girl tells us that when we meet the person we truly love, no matter what difficulties we encounter, we should bravely pursue our feelings. Even if we succeed in the end, we should cherish the time and memories we once had.
