Sorry, but that's just a really, really shitty sentence. How important is this for you? Do you have the context for the whole paragraph (or whatever it is you're writing)?

I'm thinking something like

>Sometimes, it is the simplest things that help us understand (and improve) the most complicated ones

Ok, a few things. "Cause" is informal spoken English, you should always write "because," but not at the beginning of the sentence like that. Try "It is because..."
>sometimes simplest
You've forgotten an article tovarich. THE simplest.
>makes
Go back and fix your verb agreement. That's all I can help you with, I have no idea what you're trying to say. This is an acceptable effort if you're a first-year student of English, otherwise step it up nigga.

Just to be clear, I mean the word pronounced "cuz" in American English that's an elision of "because." Not the noun "cause" meaning the source of a phenomenon: "the cause of a fire."

Yeah i was kinda lazy typing "because" my bad, but yeah it has a beginning like you said there.

Well im kinda answering this question in my head "Why does X works"

X is basically some type of cheesy love shit and in my head i was trying to say that the reason why X works is because what they do (Which is simple cheesy stuff) makes the whole Love/relationship thing(which is complicated) kinda easy or something that makes almost all type of people seem to appreciate/understand which make them like X or something like that

I'd like to help you, but I'm having trouble understanding what you mean. If you speak French or Spanish you can explain what you're trying to say in your first language and I'll get it, but otherwise I'm confused.

X is a successful trope because it manages to simplify complicated human romantic relationships in ways which can be appreciated by most people (viewers, readers, the audience?)

Or, X is successful because it simplifies complicated relationships in a way that's relatable. That might be the word you're looking for OP. Sorry I couldn't be more of a help, I'm going to bed.
