When BLMB moments aren’t included, people complain that there is a lack of development. But when RT does include moments like it in an attempt to start and develop the relationship, people claim its forced shipbaiting.

Its kinda contradictive. Its like ordering a glass of water and then complaining when you actually get a glass of water.

I agree that BumbleBee should have been developed early on, and I do still think it can be improved. But I’d like to imagine that’s gonna happen now. If Bumblee is gonna happen, I think we can all agree we want build-up and improvement. I’d rather they start with it now then suddenly have them confess out of nowhere two or three volumes later. Why is it that in anime the buildup to the confession is so prolonged and passive all the time? It's like it takes 6 seasons for the characters to go from realizing they like each other to voicing that observation to each other. That's not how it works in the real world. In the real world it's:

"Hey, wanna go someplace?"

"Yes"

It's not that hard, guys.
