Shipping Thread!

[NeeNee]

It makes at least as much sense as his current reasons.

[tardar-sauce]

Frick it makes a lot of sense, they just need a way to meet.

[BrilliantAkane]

I think it's safe to say this is canon

[themoonlandian]

In the emails I thought you were talking about another ship.

Mother of Lugh, what have I done again? Ah well. I'm throwing it in my official crack ship list now.

[Anya]

Seems like the craziest crack pairings are more popular than Izumo/Renzou these days, lol.

lol Shima joined the Illuminati betraying all his friends and family to finally be with his long lost lover.

Well, seems obvious to me now that Izumo is not Shima's priority and never has been. Not romantically anyway
But it's interesting that Shima's change from weak and boring comic relief to powerful 3-dimensional widely discussed character coincides with a lot more interaction between him and Izumo - and what interaction! emotional, physical - they talk seriously for the first time in the whole manga. even if not really freindly.

[Exsanguination]

This was on the Funny thread but it belongs here also.

[Exsanguination]

I ship Arthur-Caliburn. "Kyaaah! Arthur, you're so violent~<3".

[NeeNee]

Whoa, it's a tie between everything. I was not expecting that.

Though I'm mostly surprised that Izumo x Renzou is still as high as it is, given that, well, Renzou.

[yaodai]

People still have hope, I guess?
Or the power of denial is still strong in this fandom.

Anyhow, voted for Rin/Shiemi and Bon/Izumo.

I find Rin to be a rather panromantic guy (and I love it, Rin being constantly in awe when other characters are doing their thing is really amazing&lovely stuff), but his relationship with Shiemi is just really cute.

And about Bon/Izumo - this started accidentally, I swear. Not even an idea when, exactly, but I just really like to put them together (even if it would probably start with them breaking the ice by trying to break each other faces and that's somewhat unhealthy -_-')

I guess the only shipping that seems like it will be official to me is Rin/Shiemi since it looked like kind of a done deal from the start. I actually didn't think Yukio had romantic feelings for Shiemi until "Brother always does what I can't. I guess I'm no match for him." But then he pretty much conceeded defeat, and again at the festival, so... I'm betting on Rin/Shiemi. Though I think I do detect some chemistry with Arthur/Shura...

[NeeNee]

^ Same. I actually suspect they might have had a fling before (Shura and Arthur, I mean).

But yeah, Rin x Shiemi is pretty much guaranteed to be endgame. Unless Kazue decides to surprise us... She kinda did with Shima, so I wouldn't put it past her.

You know, that's really not so hard to imagine! They sort of make me think of exes who are still into eachother, but won't admit it! Heh!

Yeah, I'll admit, I like Shiemi with Yukio as much as I like her with Rin, but, let's face it, Yukio's already seen Rin and Shiemi have feelings for eachother and, true to form, has backed off without a peep. So, like you said, unless Kazue plans to surprise us like with Shima, that's endgame.

[NeeNee]

I wonder if she'll bring in a new girl for Yukio if Shiemi ends up with Rin.

Pairing him with Izumo certainly isn't an option (have they even talked to each other outside of class?), and I have the feeling his dislike for Shura is genuine. He relies on her because he has to, but he would develop an ulcer in weeks if he had to be around her all the time.

I wonder too, or weather our four eyed chicken will be a bachelor 'till the end? 'Guess that's up to Kazuo.

Agreed, though I have crack theory that they go to the same therapist! LOL!

Though I don't ship'em, I wouldn't call it "dislike". I kind of see it as more of an older and younger sibling interaction.

Ooh, the crackfic opportunity... >.>

... and the therapist is self-appointed and goes by the name Shura. Her preferred method is to annoy her clients until they melt into piles of seething lava or concede that her way of doing things is better.
