Can any one find a good show with a love/hate relationship in it?

I don't mean Ash/MistyXD
I mean from other good animes, new or old. Some times I like these types of relationships, other times I like lovey/dovey ones ^^
 
Ranma 1/2 is a good one starts off like that but turns into a full love/love one in the end :)
No, it does not. At the end of the anime series, Ranma and Akane are still tearing at each others' throats. Ranma may have admitted to loving Akane in the final manga chapter, but we all know they will continue to abuse each other on a regular basis in the future due to them both having explosive personalities (heck, even after the confession scene, they are seen fighting with each other just before they get married).

For the record, I have never loathed a canon ship as much as I hate Ranma x Akane.

House x Wilson from House M.D. is a good love-hate relationship. Apart from that, I cannot think of any shows with entertaining love-hate relationships, since most of them are irritating.
 
Moved out of the Pokemon shipping forum. (Sorry for the double redirect, I forgot about the "other anime" forum. Though maybe it really should be in Entertainment, I'm not sure.)
 
Oh oh I know! Duncan x Courtney from Total Drama Island/Action it might not be an anime but it's the only good teen show on CN at the moment
 
Rurouni Kenshin; The love between Kenshin and Kaoru is only shown during times of peril, but otherwise, Koaru is always grabbing at Kenshin's throat. ^^
 
Hmm... Eureka 7 has a decent love/hate theme
well, it's mainly what it's about lol
 
Ouran High School host club, of course that might just be comical love, well Tamaki and HIkaru love Haruhi, kinda difficult to see if she does or not.
Genshiken of course that love/hate develops around the end.
 
These usually involve tsundere type characters, so a quick Internet seach should bring in lots of results.

Shakugan no Shana and the Haruhi series are one of my favorites.
 
Are any of these shows in English?
Thanks for moving it to the right place.
 
As for Eureka 7, it was on Adult Swim... guess your gonna have to find a way to watch it
 
@Zelzisu

Actually it is Ranma is one of the never reveal his feelings type of guy
Nope. Ranma and Akane never develop a tender romantic relationship (I think that is what you mean by "a full love/love one in the end," correct?) in either the anime or manga. At the end of the anime, their relationship remains essentially the same as it was in the beginning of the series (meaning they refuse to confess their love for one another all the while maliciously hurting each other). Though Ranma does confess to loving Akane at the end of the manga, it is evident that they will continue to have a love-hate relationship in the future. In both the anime and manga, Ranma and Akane remain short-tempered, stubborn individuals who always want to have their own way. Their incompatibility makes it improbable for them to have a sweet and fluffy relationship. Thus, even though they do end up together at the end of the manga (or are at least implied to. Remember that their wedding was crashed by the series' secondary characters), they will always have a love-hate relationship, since it is a given that they will always regularly be at odds while still apparently loving each other.

I love Ouran :D

I would not describe Haruhi x Tamaki and Hikaru x Haruhi as love-hate relationships, since neither ship involves its two characters frequently antagonizing one another. Haruhi x Tamaki is more of a comedic romantic pairing while Hikaru x Haruhi is a mostly unrequited (I use the term "mostly" because while it appears as though Haruhi just views Hikaru as a platonic friend, we are not entirely certain) love which can be just as charming as the series' main romantic ship (Haruhi x Tamaki).

Have you seen the final episodes of the series? They make it rather clear
that Haruhi loves Tamaki.
