I love tragic backstories
The seven deadly sins cliche! And the cheesy romance ones about yanderes.
The "Rival turns Love Interest" I am a sucker for foe yay.
I will always love the "childhood friend becomes love interest" cliche. It's something I can relate to as a lot of people around me are experiencing it. It's just really cute idk
I like that one too actually, as well as the rival turns love interest. (Though I'm not a fan of romance, if I do like it as a subplot it's usually falling under one of those two categories)
I love "crotchety old grump who softens for just one or two other people."Like Carl in Up and Walt in Gran Torino.
