%%* FandomRivalry: [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y-MysTEBNyA Extinguished]], another short film revolving around the concept of love represented through symbols and trying to hide it. The factor of the main character trying to hide his love (to no avail) from the love interest doesn't help either.

Added DiffLines:

* SoOkayItsAverage: The short is praised for being one of the first animated films with positive LGBT representation, in addition to the (mostly) high-tier animation quality and adorable characters, but the only thing holding it back is that the plot is an otherwise generic love story.

The Emoji Movie one is misuse, and the other entry lacks the context of the fandoms fighting


* FandomRivalry:
** A rather one-sided one with ''WesternAnimation/TheEmojiMovie'', if only because that film has so few fans to begin with. The two animated films were released within days of each other and fans of the short like to use it as the movie's ultimate foil, that the low-budget indie film made by two art school students is an artistic and highly personal masterpiece while the multi-million dollar feature is a forgettable, [[ClicheStorm by-the-numbers]] cash grab, complete with a [[TokenRomance token straight romance]] and transparent attempts to pander to LGBT viewers that were only considered a CluelessAesop.
** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y-MysTEBNyA Extinguished]], another short film revolving around the concept of love represented through symbols and trying to hide it. The JustForFun/SurprisinglySimilarStories factor of the main character trying to hide his love (to no avail) from the love interest doesn't help either.

* TearJerker:
** When the cute, lovable, anthropomorphic heart gets literally split into two. All it wanted was to bring Sherwin and Jonathan together.
** ''Happy'' tears when Jonathan brings half of Sherwin's heart back, allowing it to heal, and then sits next to Sherwin and smiles. Jonathan's heart then appears, too, and the screen fades to black as the two hearts combine into one.

* SugarWiki/HeartwarmingMoments:
** The heart's pure, unadulterated joy upon seeing Jonathan. It captures the feeling of first love ''amazingly'' well.
** Jonathan in general is clearly a very nice kid. He's obviously confused by Sherwin's behavior, but he's kind and nonjudgmental about it. When he finds out that Sherwin has a crush on him, he doesn't mind at all, and is implied to reciprocate.

* JustHereForGodzilla: Disregarding actual homophobes, there are viewers who feel that the LGBT aspect is really the only interesting thing about the short and that it's an otherwise by-the-numbers love story that wouldn't be as interesting with a heterosexual couple.

Added DiffLines:

* MemeticMutation: The shot of Sherwin hiding from Jonathan behind a tree is popular with shitposters. They like to replace either Sherwin or Jonathan (or both) for humorous effect. One particular edit replaced Jonathan with ''[[ScrewYourself another Sherwin]]''.

* PortmanteauCoupleName: "Josh" for Jonathan/Sherwin. And yes, it's [[RuleOfFunny intentionally confusing]]. There are alternatives, of course.
