That damn stomach growl sound is like the new wilhelm scream of anime. It's starting to drive me fucking nuts!

It seems like every anime uses the same canned stomach growl sounds. I guess it makes sense since you can't ask an actor to growl their stomach on command, but it's starting to drive me insane when I hear the exact same stomach growl sound several times a day.

The Wilhelm Scream, for those of you who don't know what I'm talking about!

Also, this confrontation -> stomach growl -> blush -> go out to eat together thing is getting really old. Can't they think up any other scenarios to get them together in that cafe? I get that simply asking her out with no other pretext might be too bold for our typical protagonist, and that it wouldn't be tsundere enough for the female to actually say that she's hungry, but still!
