Love triangles work between three people who are good in different ways and are equally pleasing to know about when we delve into them, a good love triangle makes you route for all the characters to get together even though traditionally that does not occur and the further you read you eventually see it becomes inevitable that a heart has to be broken, a person left unfulfilled and a person will get exactly what they want, sometimes in unexpected ways. Here is my top 5 list with the best illustrated love triangles in manga.

Ao Haru Ride
We each conceal our true selves and when we do this we lose and gain there is no in between. Futaba knows this well as in middle school she was cheerful and sweet making the guys fall for her and brought jealoulsy from the girls and as she desired social acceptance when she entered into Highschool she hid that side of herself and brought out a tomboy persona at school, but as she settles into her new life a crush from the past appears and everything that she has keep tightly up threatens to spill free and it does. Though when Futaba gains a certain friend her feelings start to change into love. This story there isn’t just one love triangle but a constellation of feelings that the main cast has for each other. While Futaba may stand in the middle of the story with her torrid of emotions there is side romances that cannot be ignored nor neglected.
