Although Jade/Lucas are the main couple, they clearly haven’t had it easy, as the differences between them split them up time and time again. And so I was wondering whether perhaps she would’ve made a nicer couple with someone else. Take your pick!

My choice would be Zein, because they’re very much alike personality wise. And he’s very hot, and mysterious and generally awesome. So I really believe he would have been way more fun to romance.

What would your option be, if you were Jade?

Great topic, Azhal.

I would have to agree that Zein was the perfect soulmate for Jade.

Now, of course I say this in an ideal situation. As you mentioned, Zein and Jade are very much alike and I honestly believe that Jade would truly appreciate Zein's company and with time begin to love him. She would be married with someone whois Muslim and would not be so "strict" at her when it came to their religion.

However, I don't think that O Clone would be the novela that it was with these two together. I mean, it would be great and all but it would be too good and maybe a little bit boring, lol. The dilemma that drove all of O Clone was the forbidden love between Lucas and Jade and all of the obstacles that they had to go through.

But yes, I would prefer for Jade to end up with Zein, because she would have avoided a whole lot of trouble.

Well, of course the story is at its best as it is, I doubt anyone would argue with that.

It doesn't mean that we can't go around shipping characters. And I did wish for a while that she pick Zein in the actual novela - technically, she did at one point, but it fell through because of horrible misunderstandings. Perhaps letting it happen and exploring their potential relationship a little would have been interesting.

Another choice would have been the clone, because I was fed up with Lucas by the end of the show. That being said, I do understand her final decision. As you pointed out, it was Jade and Lucas' relationship that was at the core of the show, and perhaps destroying that would have meant messing with the very structure of a novela, and might have led to some viewers feeling cheated.

BTW, do you think Said ever stood a chance?

I'm glad that you bring these two characters up. I'll start with Leo.

Before I started watching O Clone I had the vaguest idea of the story line. I assumed from various trailers that I had seen on Youtube that the Clone was going to be the biggest obstacle for Jade and Lucas. However, in my opinion he wasn't.

I was kind of dissapointed with the way that they handled the Jade/Leo relationship. I honestly thought that these two were going to be in an actual relationship and that at the end Jade would have to pick between Lucas or Leo. But this was not the case. In a sense I'm kind of glad that it wasn't because then the story line would've been very predictable.

I also loved how Jade left her necklace to Leo. This was so symbolic and touching. That necklace represented so much to Jade. I thought it was extremely appropriate that she decided to give it to Leo. In doing this, she literally moves on with her life and leaves her past with THE past (Leo).

Also, poor Said. To be honest, out of all of Jade's love interest (which were many, lol ) I can honestly say that Said loved Jade the most. His love was genuine and constant. However, Jade never realized this fully. If she did, then she might've hesitated leaving him. I don't think Jade deserved Said...ever.

I suppose the show dealt with a bit too many things to focus on just the love triangle Leo/Jade/Lucas. But it would have been nice to have Jade and Leo's relationship explored more (she did begin to see him as Leo when he offered to take her home at one point, which was really sweet, perhaps my favourite moment with those two).
It would have been surprising if she chose the clone.

Hmm, I don't know whether Said loved her most, per se. I mean, the way I see it, he was attracted to her, he did love her, but most of all he wanted to conquer her out of wounded ego and pride. He wanted to show her that he was the one who had the most to offer her - jewels, appreciation, support. All these, however, generate gratitude, not necessarily love. And in this case, perhaps not even that, because Jade always saw him as an obstacle between her and the man she already loved. He was not there first (in more ways than one ), which put him at a disadvantage. Seriously, how can one try to gain someone's heart, when that heart is already given?

On a slightly different note... *scratches head* You guys do realise that in the poll options I wrote Lucas when in fact I meant Leo, right? Lucas *is* her official love interest, and I don't really know what possessed me to write his name. *will try to modify*

Edit: OK, done.

You bring up some excellent points, Azhal. I forgot about Said's wounded Ego, haha. Which ultimately played a huge role in O Clone. I think that Jade was always blinded, and could never see Said for what he truly was. I still think that he "loved" her though but it is obvious that this love wasn't mutual, lol.

Also, the fact that he was "forced" upon her by Tio Ali played a huge part in Jade rejecting him. Granted, that she always had the choice to "reject" him before marrying him, but I still feel that she never saw this as an option. At the time, Jade was young and somewhat immature. She took what she got without really wanting it.

Haha, I didn't even notice that Lucas was on the poll option, lol! Now that I think of it it makes me laugh!

Mayassa, why did you choose Zein? I would love to hear your thoughts!
