My Top 10 favourite shippings/pairings Part 2
7. Sofia x Hugo (Sofia The First)
*for a bigger view of the picture click here
Technically in the beginning of Sofia The First after the movie/pilot episode "Once Upon a Princess", in the first epsiode of the series "Just One of the Princes", where Prince Hugo was first introduced, he was arrogant and overconfident, I thought if he was a frequent character he could have a nice development and thought he could go well together with Sofia and remind me a little one of my most favourite shippings of all time (SakuraxShaoran from Cardcaptor Sakura, they had similar start too), since I thought he would only appear in this episode, I doubted he would appear again, was I wrong, he appeared again in "Flying Crown", that's when I started to ship them, "Lord of the Rink" episode is where it marked me to fully on board to ship them, in this episode specially, I think it left some hints that they might have romantic feelings for each other...
6. Jude x Milla (Tales of Xillia and Tales of Xillia 2)
They are pretty much my 2nd favourite shipping in the video games section, what I love about this pairing, even at the end when they are fully aware of each others feelings and mutual in a romantic way, they don't date even in it's sequel, but is clear they share a special connection, there is a shared romantic love bond, in a way they are couple but not in a mainstream way and what is usually expected, which I like a lot, how they grow as characters together, individually and with those around them.
5. Robin (female default only) x Chrom (Fire Emblem: Awakening)
This shipping gets as much love as much hate (it's around 40/40 and 20 is indiferent), there is many who ship it for Chrom as "Husbando"(meme crush/fictional crush, whatever you want to call it, which isn't my case), as there is many because it feels more involved in the story(it's one of the many reasons and a personal of mine, specially with Lucina being your daughter), there is more reasons why I shipped , Robin and Chrom being two halves of a greater whole, with f!Robin adds even more to "two part of the same whole", I love the sibling relationship of their children (Morgan and Lucina, it's so cute), the royalty and their general/captain, in this case the prince and his tactician/general dynamic is a very appealing dynamic for me and draws me in a romantic sense, because isn't often you see this kind of dynamic, it's kinda rare. You might find strange, the f!Robin I refer is the default customization and name, it's only with this one I ship with Chrom, I made a personalized avatar and name before, it didn't feel right for me, so I married Chrom with Sumia and personalised avatar single, because I have special attachment for f!Robin, it's for the default Robins (be it male or female), even I can't put f!Robin with other male candidate other than Chrom, yeah, even with m!Robin I'm picky, the Robins are my favourites of the fire emblem series I played (the titles with casual mode that went to the western audience). I do think f!RobinxChrom is slightly canon, for starters you can marry f!Robin to Chrom if you want to, despite the special connection shared between Robin and Chrom (be either female or male Robin) it can go ambiguously romantic or platonic, another curious thing about the children from the future, besides Morgan, Lucina is the only child one who can have tactician class if her mother is Robin, so what I'm saying even if m!Robin marries Sumia or Cordelia or Miriel, etc (their children won't get tactician class except Morgan female), but since Chrom has other female characters as marriage candidates and the same for f!Robin with male characters, I do think they're slightly canon for the reasons I pointed out. (small note: I don’t think their support conversations do it justice for this pairing except for the story and many fanarts plus doujinshis, it’s fun for a laugh but that’s it, it’s the story that made me ship them, not the supports, besides the Robins supports conversation with marriageable characters feels forced)
