History Headscratchers / ToLoveRu

* Just what in the Universe would a bunch of deranged scientists get from the Universe being at constant disarray? Baring the fact that there are already enough stray forces capable of bringing about ApocalypseHow at any moment and of far more severe proportions than any LivingWeapon ever designed would, did they consider the possibility that releasing said {{LivingWeapon}}s may come to bite them in their scientific asses? Especialy when said weapons are severely mentally and emotionally unstable and they know who made them that way. You'd have to seriously slip off the hook to commit such crap.

** 2) Has incredible powers (SuperStrength and [[FrickingLaserBeams tail lasers]] for Lala, {{Flight}} and [[ShockAndAwe electricity generation]] for Lum).

*** They save resoucres. Because of this, they are capable of having 100% of the population either sire or bear young, depending on the needs. It's an adaptability issue. Furthermore, even though they still have male/female distinctions, 100% of the population can switch between them. Need more hunters, women become men. Need more child-raisers? Women become men. It's the 'they split up after puberty' thing that's ridiculous.
* How come Ren/Run didn't realize what would happen to their bodies in adolescence? You'd think the prince/princess of a planet would notice hir subjects splitting into two people. Hell, you'd have to be brain-dead to not notice that you have two mommies ''and'' two daddies!

* How exactly did a planet with two suns induce aliens to evolve into dual-gendered beings? Hell, [[DragonBall Namek]] had ''three'' suns, and its inhabitants were ''genderless!''.

* OK, this one just bugged me for an awful lot now, so I'm just gonna ask : How in the holy mother of [[PrecisionFStrike FUCK]] did the Devilukeans evolve to get erogenous tails and WHY ?! What practical purpose does it give to the species ?

* In the anime episode 8 "The Prefect of Spotless Integrity" Kotegawa Yui is Obviously abusing her authority as she enforces new school rules on the student body yet they don’t get outraged or call her out on it and Not only that but singles out Rito as the prime “offender” for all things Eechi when it’s clear it was all LALA fault, like it’s always the guys fault and never the girls in her mind or something, What’s the deal with that?

*** Well, It's not that bad. The only ones who irrationally blame him are Yui and Nana, both {{Tsundere}}s. Lala and most of the other girls acknowledge that its an accident most of the time. Hell, even Yui and Nana acknowledge that they are usually accidents. Yui's CharacterDevelopment is partially about her moving away from this mind set. Haruna also responds violently, but that's usually only when Rito face plants into her crotch. And the authority abuse? The ultimate authority in that school is the principal. And IIRC the rules weren't new, she was just rigidly enforcing rules that students usually get away with. For example, magazines really aren't allowed, but as long as they aren't being read in class teachers are likely to let it go. Plus, the student ''were'' getting pissed, but seeing as those rules were only in place for a day... Its exactly for this reason that Rito warned her she was going too far.
*** When you think about it, Yui wasn't completely wrong about Rito. He was, at the very least, the unwilling catalyst of the problems that finally set her off that day. He's the primary focus and without him Lala and Ren/Run leave while Saki goes back to being the most popular girl in school (keep in mind that it was her escalating competitiveness that lead to her and her henchwomen showing up in those outfits) . Is he totally at fault? No. Is he a significant part of recent excesses? Heck, yes. Does he WANT to be a part of those issues? That would be a big 'No'.

* So I'm unclear on this: Does Lala actually have wings as well as a tail, or is that just Peke(sp) making them for her? I've never been able to tell.

* So I was looking at the {{Expy}} section on the main page, and it's dawned on me that Lala could be seen as a very big Expy of one [[UruseiYatsura Lum Invader]]. Think about it:

1) Is an alien princess from another planet.

2) Has incredible powers (SuperStrength and [[FrickingLaserBeams tail lasers]] for Lala, {{Flight}} and [[ShockAndAwe electricity generation]] for Lum).

3) Both apparently possess numerous devices from their home planets (though Lala makes hers herself).

4) Both are bases on a type of mythical beast in appearance (Lala on devils, and Lum on Oni).

5) Their races are apparently conquerors.

6) Both insert themselves into the lives of the guy they get involved with, who are considered perverts (though Ataru is one on purpose, and Rito is a AccidentalPervert).

And those are just a few surface points. I've also read that Lum's horns act as a weakness, just like Lala's tail, though I'm not sure if that is the truth. What do you guys think?
** Makes sense to me. And yes, grabbing Lum's horns severely weakens her, but it doesn't have the other effects that grabbing Lala's tail has. Also, you can't forget that both series are very fanservice heavy.

* How the hell is Nemesis visible? She's composed of dark matter, yes? Dark matter neither emits nor interacts with electromagnetic radiation which includes visible light, so unless the majority of Nemesis is actually regular baryonic matter (or more likely, I'm actually wrong about her being a dark matter being, she shouldn't even be visible to the naked eye. Aside from the logic of if she's not visible, then there's no fanservice, of course.

*** The above commenter doesn't understand evolution at all. Evolution is purpose driven. Its purpose is to avoid significantly decreasing the chances of reproduction. That's why you don't see gene for infertility being passed down - because it literally can't be. That's why the question of why Devilukeans have a erogenous tails is a valid question - it presents a weakness and potentially significantly decreases their chances of surviving to reproduce.

** Evolution isn't purpose driven. Its more accurate to think of evolution as something that improves your odds of surviving and reproducing. So its entirely likely that Devilukeans didn't all of a sudden have erogenous tails, but it began as something that was perceived as attractive or desirable and individuals born with it had a higher likelihood of mating and passing on this trait.

** You see, ''ToLoveRu'' works on a strict formula. Girls get into some sexy predicament, [[AccidentalPervert Rito accidentally sees it]], girls beat him up because of how much of a pussy he is. It's the basis for almost ''every'' harem manga since ''LoveHina''. Simply put, you ''can't'' change it, even if it goes against logic.
*** Well, It's not that bad. The only ones who irrationally blame him are Yui and Nana, both {{Tsundere}}s. Lala and most of the other girls asknowledge that its an accident most of the time. Hell, even Yui and Nana acknowledge that they are usually accidents. Yui's CharacterDevelopment is partially about her moving away from this mind set.
