dreamy days in west tokyo rihito season 1

Of the love triangle between Sonozaki, Katsuhira, and Chidori, the end game is Sonozaki/Katsuhira, leaving Chidori as this.

Fortunately, he doesn't seem to mind much. However, his name isn't in the title, so of course he's doomed to providing lots of unnecessary medicine while she runs off to save the world with Inuyasha.

Inuyasha: Houjou is unbelievably and relentlessly nice to Kagome, and even though the few dates they try out are disastrous, he doesn't give up.

There's nothing wrong with her, it's just that William had already fallen in love with someone else.

Eleanor of Emma: A Victorian Romance is a female example.

Yet still, despite having a more overt crush on Luca compared to the game, she ultimately convinces him to back out of their engagement after picking up on how close Luca really is with Bianca.

In Dragon Quest: Your Story, Nera Briscoletti is a beautiful, kind-hearted, rich lady.

However, fast forward to Dragon Ball Z, & Bulma dumps him, & then gradually warms up to Vegeta of all people, who had been a villain actively threatening the planet in the previous story arc. In fact, he combines this trope with Romantic False Lead, because in the events of Dragon Ball, he was explicitly set up with Bulma after the end of the first big story arc conclusion, when the dragon was summoned.

Yamcha may be the quintessential example.

Danganronpa 3: The End of Hope's Peak High School: Juzo becomes this when Chisa ends up as the one the love of his life, Munakata, falls in love with.

She even fought with Nemu at first, but eventually gives him up at the end of the first Season. But unfortunately for her, Junichi's jealous sister Nemu doesn't like him spending time with any girls but her. Many characters also comment that those two would be a good match for each other. Many of the characters mention that she's popular, she's a good cook, smart, and she likes spending a lot of time with Junichi.

Kotori is a female example from Da Capo.

Though Canale really respects and cares for her he does not want to pursue a relationship for reasons even other than the obvious, and he ends up with the jerkass Fetishized Abuser instead, who is something of an adopted sibling to Aura, just to rub it in.

In Corsair, Aura, a plucky (if naive) girl had been planning to marry Canale for a very long time.

If it wasn't already blatantly obvious to viewers from the very beginning of episode 1, a massive Ship Sinking scene occurs in episode 18, which makes it very clear to all of the other girls which one of them Tomoya really cares about.

In the anime for CLANNAD, every girl not named Nagisa falls into this trope.

It's later explained that his reasons to like Sato go beyond the mere Love Triangle, and were centered on someone else in the end. An even more blatant example is Inspector Shiratori, whose biggest in-story role was being part of the Love Triangle between Sato and Takagi.Araide would lose even then, since Ran would rather be alone than without Shinichi. One of the OAV's shows what would likely happen if Shinichi never found a way to become normal. and he happens to have a romantic interest in a young girl named Ran, who has been smitten with the Guile Hero Shinichi/Conan already for years. Tomoyo is in love with Sakura, but she much prefers the Better as Friends and I Want My Beloved to Be Happy approaches, and is, towards the end, happy to help Sakura and Syaoran get together.At this point, it can be considered a subversion, since Sakura realized she had no romantic interest in Yukito a bit prior to their relationship started and Syaoran fell for Sakura after they captured all Clow Cards.

Sakura and Syaoran are both in love with Yukito at the start of the story, but Yukito ends the story with Sakura's brother, Touya.
