Would you rather read a story about a “bad boy falls for the quiet girl” OR “regular girl falls for the mafia boss”?
Since I feel as if those are the two most popular storylines , which one do you guys think is better?

Personally, I wouldn’t read either since they’re both far too cliche/overused for my liking but I’m sure others may read one of them (:
Forum users & Episode App users seem to have contradicting opinions. The readers who aren’t on the forums seem to love ‘maf*a boss romances’/‘bad boy meets good girl’/‘employee falls for employer’/‘student falls for teacher’ whereas forum readers often absolutely despise these themes but it’s your story so you write whatever you’d like to write about (:
Neither but I am going to say the first because I hate the second.
I’m a neither person but if both were less cliché and more original then I would say bad boy falls for quiet girl. I’m not a mafia person anymore, when I first saw them I knew they were just fictional but now there over used and portray not ok things as ok, there’s some good ones out their (all the good/ ok ones out there that I read are discontinued or hidden/ deleted, or I can’t remember the name) (I did read a good goverment action story recently though but that’s off topic, it had mafia but wasn’t mafia). But Anyways Bad boy falls for quiet girl if it was more original than other ones.
Edit: I sadly don’t know the difference between fiction and non-fiction, but basically fake. ( In case I used it wrong, because I always forget the difference)
Fiction =
Non-Fiction =
I’ve never read any story of the bad boy falls for the quiet girl . It’s usually the bad boy falls for the regular girl. So… Yeah that’s my answer. Number one.
Thank you (I always forget, mostly because in school they said/ say remember one as factual, and one as fake)
If I HAD to pick one, probably “bad boy falls for the quiet girl.” It’s slightly less dangerous for it to happen in real life than falling for a mafia boss.
Lmaoo, I’m not sure why lots of people strongly dislike the mafia section of episode😭. Maybe it’s because it’s overused but I really like them
Tbh yeah, Mafia love is an overused and toxic trope. I’d love a normal romance story, but it’s Episode so idk what else I would expect. No hate to anybody who enjoys either genre, I used to love them a while back, they’re just not my thing anymore
It’s because of how toxic they are often made to be (:
These are common trope/issues/plots used (Yes, there’s a lot. I’m just listing everything I have read more than once in Maf/a Episode stories)
Obviously, not every author’s maf/a story will be toxic but I haven’t read many maf/a stories yet that haven’t been toxic all the way through or have turned toxic in some way (:
I’ll join you with that one! (:
Will do now (:
tbh i’d pick the first over the second any day because at least from the stories ive read about them the relationships between mc and li are very emotionally developed, mainly bcs the authors usually make out the mc to be unattractive. at least they get each other on some level and the bad boy undergoes some sort of development. while regular girl-mafia stories the mc just believes that powerful and hot are character attributes and has “pick me” vibes. plus its totally unrealistic and not to mention romanticizing mafia bosses way too hard and the fact that 11/10 times its cuz the mafia li kidnaps the mc that she ends up falling for him…like please no…yikes.
Both but only if the storie has some kind of twist that makes it less cliche OR if it’s extremely well written
I’ve kinda seen them done to death be interesting to see it flipped haven’t seen one story on the quiet boy or even a normal boy ever.
I know they’re a little bit cringe and kinda toxic but… I love them both! I have read so many of these stories-
bad boy x good girl
criminal boy x innocent girl
male teacher x female student
CEO x assistant!
My favourite would probably be the office romances because they are the most ‘realistic’ if you know what I mean.
And my second favourite would be the mafia boss x regular girl because it’s a lot like the bad boy x good girl but it adds a little bit of spice
Definitely the first. My brain shuts off at the mention of “mafia.”
Finally someone that thinks like me!!!
We stan Stockholm Syndrome
But fr yeah, mafia stories just make me cringe. The LI is always the leader and is just such a d-ck for most of the story, and the MC is usually a “pick me” girl with no real personality outside of “look at how different and unique I am even tho the author of this story made me look like every other episode MC.”
