Now that is just acting like a retard because it is not what i meant and you ignore the actual thing i am saying here. I mean the way they fall in love feels forced like if it was taken from a hentai, eroge or harem anime. You liveandsound guy tell me. YOu mentioned that you don't like the jaune harem fics in the fanfiction thread so you probably can see too just how the romance in arkos is like taken from a rwby fanic right? The main idea is that he gave her a chocolate cookie while everyone else was giving her vanilla aka he treated her different from the rest and bang! She loves the guy. Doesnt make sense. Dont ren treats her in the same way? Like a normal person? Hell! even cardin does the same thing so how is jaune any special? Except it is nothing like a hentai or eroge because it is one relationship, not all of them, and she can react to Jaune differently because of physical/racial differences in taste, as well as "rose tinted glasses" which are also derived from timing as well as stimulus.

We also have no evidence that Cardin or Ren treated her anywhere near the same, as something of a celebrity she has likely been used to forward men like Jaune introducing themselves to her, not her friends, and doing so with great respect/reverence/desire, however Jaune didn't even turn his main attention to her after he heard she was famous, he was just like "that is awesome!, now let us continue to talk about your friend".

Introverts like Ren not introducing themselves at all would be relatively common interaction for her, as would assholes and bullies like Cardin, as she seems to have grown up in a world of combat training and combat.

Jaune's reactions however are completely contrary to her normal because he is a "hiccup" that should not and has not been in that kind of world before, which makes him something of a curiosity to her.

The problem with Harem Fic's with this kind of character are that this kind of person shows up and everyone feels this way about them, people fall for each other in different ways, so it is unsurprising that one or two might feel this way for someone... but ALL of them? hell no, that is why we hate the harems, they force a bunch of other unessential, non-sensical relationships on him, the relationship type works, but if and when it is overdone it becomes horribly cliché.
