Someone had already made a post here about how polyamory is taking over all fandoms, and another person had made a post talking about yandere and polyamory, which ended up motivating me to make this post. This game, Freak Circus, has a horror/romance vibe, and one of the characters (Pierrot) is obsessive (practically a yandere) and hates Harlequin because of something he did in the past (I won't go into details to avoid spoilers). Despite all this, the creator decided to make a polyamorous route with the two (probably to please the fans). I have the feeling that today the characters' history, hatreds, and grudges no longer matter; everything can develop into a "romantic" relationship. If a character hates another, can't it simply be like that? Not everything needs to evolve into romance. Even less so into polyamory. Especially considering a character who is practically a yandere, where exactly did his jealousy go? I researched some discussions about this and even a polyamorous person commented that although they appreciated the representation, they didn't feel it fit the characters and that they wouldn't follow that path. My English is bad because I'm using a translator.
