same here i used to get so annoyed that protagonists in anime never chose anyone. so when i discovered the vn translation community it might just of been the happiest moment of my life. vn's are much better with the choice of heroine the deeper character exploration and general awesomeness. but i still love anime specially ones like toradora where there is some sort of devolopment between characters or in a completely diffrent direction one piece because its the most epic series ever created and my all time favorite
