Does Not Illustrate: Love At First Punch

I'm seeing the first punch (well, kick) in the image, but no love anywhere. So it doesn't illustrate the trope.

Ookamisan's Cinderella with a twist story (he ends up looking for the girl who kicked him instead of the shoe left behind) might work.... lets see how well the images turn out though

Think one or two of these would work?

[1]◊ [2]◊ [3]◊ [4]◊ [5]◊ [6]◊ [7]◊ [8]◊ [9]◊ [10]◊ [11]◊ [12]◊

I think 6 and 11 would work good together.

So (cropped the 11th panel a bit.)

I could live with that.

Very good.

That works.

Another vote for that.

I dont really have the tools to edit them together anyone mind doing that really quick?

Done.◊

Version without gap.◊

I lean toward the second.

I second that.

Ok caption? the next line is◊ "And They Lived Happily Ever After"

Bump so everyone ok with the second one on that post above?

How about that caption?

I could live with it.

Works for me.

I laughed.

I find the subtitle in the second pic confusing... It doesn't say anything about love, but that he "decided to raise our Cinderella". That sounds like him becoming a surrogate father to her, not a lover.

I think the background lighting looks too distinctly romantic for that...but I do agree the captions made me think "baby?" and try to figure out what he's saying.

Can we get a non-subtitled version of the bottom picture.

I agree that that would help.

If it can't be found/done, though, then I'd prefer keeping the current image. I think the expression on the guy's face puts it above bad image territory.

EDIT: If by some bizarre miracle I'm right, should the current image be cropped? The negative space on the left in the current version bugs me. I think this is better, though if I've gone overboard I can try again:

While not better than the other suggestion, it's better than the current.

Agreed.
