Gotta say, I don’t actually really enjoy a lot of Arlecchino ships but I also don’t dislike a lot of them, but I wanted an excuse to talk about all of them anyways so I rate them.
To be nice I’ll try and give them all a song from my 29 hour long playlist, so even if I don’t like them I still put thought into finding a song on my playlist that I thought fit.
Arlefuri- 8/10 When there isn’t a HoYoLAB loser in my ear telling me I’m the devil for enjoying it. The appeal is there. They’re both people who are passionate for what they are trying to protect and the idea of them slowly becoming comfortable around each other… I think that’s the appeal for me. Just the progression of their potential relationship. Arlefuri shippers are soldiers for dealing with ‘Arlecchino is Furina’s abuser’ all the time. A lot of Arlefuri to me is seeing what other people are creating, it’s so beautiful in that regard. I love you Arlefuri shippers.
Daisy- Harke
Arlenora- 5/10 As a genuinly romantic ship? No, I don’t like them, I just can’t see a relationship like that between them and I’d prefer not too. As two women grieving over losing that one person and maybe becoming self destructive as a result and finding a silent and unspoken comfort in the other however… I do love the fact that they were acquainted, I do see the appeal, I just could never get into it like that. I’ve tried, like it’s on my account, but I lose interest so quick in that context.
Why- Dominic Fike
Arlebina- 4/10 I do still love the potential it could hold with Columbina coming to the story soon, but I just can’t right now. There’s nothing inherently interesting to it for me.
Wolf In Sheep’s Clothing [REBORN]- Set it Off
Arlechi- 10/10 Ya’ll know this is my shit. My OTP, my muse, i am obsessed with them, this account is for them. I have so many posts just about these two specifically, they are the reason I’m still alive, they maintain my interest in this game. They’re toxic codependency, they see each other in themselves and it makes them sick but they treat each other with kindness (kind ≠ nice, they aren’t nice to each other)and it keeps them addicted to each other, but also Tartaglia’s dislike of Arlecchino… no, I shan’t ramble.
Trust the Devil- Cricket!
Knavilette/Arleneuvi- 5/10 I love the art. That’s all I can say, the art is so peak everytime. I lack the ability to find the appeal, but I am not opposed to it at all.
Bad Romance- Lady Gaga
Wriocchino- 5/10 I understand the appeal, the two people who suffered under the hands of their parents and taking things into their own hands, and that all paired with Wriothesly’s perceived skepticism of Arlecchino i think. Yeah, I get it 100%. I wouldn’t say I love it but it’s interesting to see for sure.
Anthem for the Already Defeated- Rock Plaza Central
Arleyun- 10/10 I never talk about them but I love them so much. It’s like there’s little concept and I don’t even remember what it was about them I adorded besides finding the Mother x Father thing entertaining. I have nothing left to say about them but they still have an extremely special place in my heart. And I love all 2 of the Arleyun shippers I know of.
Slow Dancing- Aly & AJ
Arlerista- 9/10 They’re awful, I love them. It started because Arlecchino’s opinion of her alongside what had happened in her story was so weird and manipulative. Arlecchino’s opinion is rather neutral, but it’s the language of using ‘saved’ when depending on how she was imprisoned… you’d think The Tsaritsa would be responsible for that. So saved from what she put her through? Saved from what the Tsaritsa allowed to happen? Yeah… they’re disgusting, but the dynamic exists in my head that I can’t explain well without prose writing.
Christmas Kids- Roar (this is their song)
Arleskirk- 5/10 The moon motif does get me. It really does… their similarities that I perceive are suspicious as well, so yes, I do like it. It’s nothing I would personally explore however.
Skeleton Song- Kate Nash
Bloodmoney/Arlelone- 4/10 I think aesthetically they look nice next to each other. I’m not sure how I feel about it overall however. It’s just sorta… I love Pantalone so far and I love Arlecchino so thinking about them isn’t difficult, but it’s…. It’s fine as a ship. I think I just prefer the idea of them disliking each other with no ship attached or any romantic or even positive inclinations . I don’t think they hate each other but the tension held just because Pantalone technically has power over her despite their ranking differences. Now that, that makes me ill.
Bird Song- Florence + the Machine
Arlevia- 7/10 *deep voice* I used to like this back in the day. No, but they’re cute, like I think what keeps this from a ‘5’ is Navia still being skeptical. I love Arlecchino with the people who are still put off by her. Like, they see her for her actions, but still sense something off or maybe wrong or simply just something that doesn’t reach the surface. I like that for Navia and Arlecchino.
Me and my Husband- Mitski
Arlevie- 2/10 I don’t like it. I tried, but I just can’t. It’s cute in like all the art and what not and I love the friendship we got to see on screen, and they make me cry ugly… but as a ship? I can’t. It’s so clear they love each other and if I had the funds I’d buy the Clervie rabbit to pose with my Peruere one, and I love the whole Arlecchino basically being haunted by Clervie… but anything romantic? I mean don’t get me wrong I absolutely see it, I just don’t like it.
Buzzcut Season- Lorde
And my party of one guilty pleasure
Yaecchino/Arleyae- 10/10 They exist for one reason only. Because I’m a nerd for the Inazuma world quest series, a Very Special Fortune Slip. That quest is my favorite one in the entire game, it’s my everything. And if you haven’t played it, go do that, but it’s basically about a house of the hearth operative named Lyudochka who becomes the new Gendou Ringo but before that you have to like essentially get her out of the Fatui. Anyways Yae Miko adopts her and is like you can have that job girl, it’s okay, and then Efim, the main antagonist who we don’t like because he was trying to poison watatsumi island to up Arle’s prestige gets called back and uh idk she might’ve killed him. Anyways, in Arlecchino’s trailer she’s in Inazuma walking AWAY from the shrine because she was visiting our lovely new shrine maiden. What does this have to do with Arleyae? Uhhh they also made out?? Idk they’re funny looking together I find it fun. They’re not necessarily romantic, but idk… they’re my thing I never talk about and you’ll never hear of them again.
