For ask game, top3 fav ships (any media) and top3 least liked/hated ones 🫵🫵✌️?
Woohoo that's a hard one!
In the good tradition of sleepovers I do not claim to still have this opinion in the morning, but here's what comes to mind right now.
Narumitsu - Miles Edgeworth & Phoenix Wright from Ace Attorney
Shuake - Goro Akechi & Ren Amamiya (or Akira Kurusu, your pick) from Persona 5
1x2 - Heero Yui & Duo Maxwell from Gundam Wing
1x2 is very nostalgic and kind of defined what I like in ships today. That said, I hesitated a lot with Edwin, Edward Elric and Winry Rockbell from Fullmetal Alchemist (which is beautiful friends to lovers with just the right amount of pain and chaos, and canon ships are great too.)
Shuake is enemies to lovers that I *adore*.
And Narumitsu is probably my all-time OTP, it has it all: friends to enemies (one-sided-enemies, possibly) to friends to lovers with the occasional competitive streak, lots of sass, and tsundere potential equal to wholesomeness potential.
All three also have great idiots-to-lovers potential, and I'm here for it.
(Note: just because I don't like them doesn't mean they're bad. I just don't ship it.)
Sidlink - Link & Sidon from The Legend of Zelda
Renheng - Blade & Dan Heng from Honkai: Star Rail
Respectfulshipping - Ryoken Kogami & Spectre from Yu-Gi-Oh! VRAINS
I'm usually a multishipper, but for some reason, in TLOZ, I'm too attached to Zelink to be convinced by Sidlink.
I can't see Renheng because, as much as I understand Dan Feng/Yingxing, I don't like this idea that "they find each other in their new life" / "they make peace with the past together"; I don't see any peace potential for them, they're enemies to enemies in my mind I'm afraid.
I'm also not into the pure devotion / saver-saved relationships, which makes Respectfulshipping really not my thing.
I see where those ships come from, I see their potential, mostly they're just not really tropes I adhere to or characters I particularly like. Doesn't mean I don't like reading about them, because multishipping is beautiful.
Thank you for the question, that was fun! And harder than it seemed.
