The Hunters of Artemis Aren’t Asexual or Aromantic

While the Hunters of Artemis have forsworn love, they made a choice to not have romantic relationships. That is fundamentally different from being Aro, where you made no conscious dicision to not form romantic bonds. 2603:8080:27F0:750:F9AC:6556:7FC9:C69D (talk) 03:55, 7 August 2023 (UTC)

Well in any case, it looks like those characters have since been removed. Historyday01 (talk) 17:14, 20 February 2024 (UTC)

someone who knows how to edit wiki pages please help

can someone please add Clariel from "Clariel" by Garth Nix to the literature category. here is the description: Clariel's lack of experience of sexual or romantic attraction are described at multiple points, come up early in the book, and are treated as a core part of who she is as a person.

Maki and Charlie

Is Maki actually asexual or aromantic? Yes, he clearly expresses interest in observing romance, but not participating in it. But as far as I remember, it makes sense in context and the character himself never states his lack of interest in romance or sex. Honestly, I'm not even sure that this wasn't meta comments about shippers. That is, at the moment we essentially have two secondary sources that only read him as such. But what about the authors or the adaptation staff? The same goes for Charlie Weasley. We get simple confirmation several times through quotes that he is “married to his job,” but nothing directly about his sexuality. In fact, the only source is the mention that he is popular with asexual and aromantic fans, which obviously cannot be used as a source. Solaire the knight (talk) 01:41, 22 October 2024 (UTC)

Honestly, I'd be ok with removing Maki and Charlie. Since Maki's role in the story, in the appropriate context is mentioned in the "Early development" and "Asexuality and aromanticism" sections of the Bloom Into You page already, I think that's sufficient enough.

I also couldn't help but notice that other examples actually contain confirmations from the creators. As for the article, yes, the article describes it much better. Because Yuu has relationship problems due to overly high expectations of romantic experiences, people often interpret her as asexual or aromantic, although the premise of the story suggests that she will eventually develop and realize her attraction to Touko. So, if no one speaks out in a couple of days, will we delete it? Solaire the knight (talk) 09:33, 22 October 2024 (UTC)
