You can't like a shipping and you don't need a comprehensible reason. It's enough if you prefer another shipping with one of the characters. Everything fine and dendy. But I'm not a fan of bogus arguments being sought to badmouth a shipping.
And with that, I'm addressing the bogus argument that people use to belittle NephNaru. Nephrite would be much older than Naru, Naru is still a minor at 14 years old. Shipping would be pedophile.
Teach me otherwise. But as far as I know, Nephrite's age is unknown. But I guess he's 16 years old. Why do I think that? Because Naru is 14 years old, same as Usagi and her friends. It's clear. They're in the same class. Sailor Moon is the same age as her Senshis. So I'm assuming the Shittenou must be Mamoru's age, also 16 years old.
This means that Nephrite would be of legal age, in contrast to Naru, but at most two years older. Nevertheless, that Shipping then has nothing to do with pedophilia.
And if NephNaru is still criticizable, then every other shipping in Sailor Moon is also criticizable. Starting with Mamoru x Usagi, Seiya x Usagi, Shittenou x Senshi (specifically Nephrite x Makoto) and finally Helios x Chibiusa. Even the incestinous sibling relationship between Ail and Ann seems fine. But NephNaru. Oh my gosh. That's pedophilia. lol I just want to throw my hands over my head.
If you're bothered by relationships between minors and adults, please don't watch Sailor Moon. Above all. They don't go to bed together. The relationship is only illegal if they sleep together. Otherwise, everyone can love whoever they want. Please stop sexualizing any relationship. Thanks.
