I've long been fascinated with the varying opinions shipping inspires. I try to help this wiki become a reliable resource.

My ships are pretty much all either canon or at the edge of semi-canon, as I rarely hold interest otherwise. I like the character dynamics, after all. I tend to like ships that are devoted, fight together, develop gradually, and/or have a good balance of fluff and angst to keep them interesting.

Favorite Tropes

 * Battle Couple
 * Bodyguard Crush
 * Devoted to You
 * Everyone Can See It
 * Just the Way You Are

Main Ships
Listed in order of how long I've shipped it.
 * Aikoto (Created Page): Ingrains itself within and amplifies the tragic themes of Persona 3. My longest pairing listed, since 2012.
 * AsuShin: These two are pretty much the poster of the fascinating dysfunctional romance.
 * Royai: Who has seen/read FMA and doesn't want these two together? Their loyalty and trust is incredibly strong.
 * Shirou x Rin, Fate/Stay Night: Definitely the most grounded pairing in FSN. They understand one another, flaws and all, and try to support each other.
 * HiroZero: Transitions seamlessly between a fascinating toxic relationship a la AsuShin into the most wholesome pairing. Really heartwarming to see Hiro's faith in Zero Two come to fruition.
 * NeroHaku (Created Page): Turns Nero from annoyingly arrogant to intoxicating and wholesome. Underdog their way into the ultimate power couple.
 * ShinCelty (Created Page): Only one here that isn't a battle couple, though they still support one another in their work. A strange and adorably passionate pairing who twist the fine line between love and control, but show a very devoted understanding of one another. Currently my newest ship!

Platonic Ships
Pairings I like in a strictly non-romantic way


 * Tatsuya & Jun, Persona 2: Of all these, I'm most open to seeing this one romantically, but I prefer it as a Brotp.
 * Joel & Ellie, The Last Of Us: I really didn't think this one would do it for me, but it actually worked.
 * Joker & Morgana, Persona 5: Adds a more wholesome side to Morgana, similar to NeroHaku for Nero.
 * Shirou & Illya, Fate/Stay Night: As an older sibling myself, I find their softer moments adorable.
 * Okabe & Mayushi, Steins;Gate: I joke that Okabe picked his autistic friend over Kurisu. Seriously though, Okabe cares more about Mayushi and you can't convince me otherwise.

Graveyard of Ships
Ships that I liked at one point or another that have been officially sunk since.


 * Jaller x Hahli, Bionicle: This one was teased a bit and the DVD for Mask of Light confirmed it, but then the creator said that romance wouldn't exist in Bionicle anymore.
 * Roodaka x Makuta, Bionicle: We don't ever see them interact directly, but freeing Makuta is Roodaka's motive, and her dialogue is extremely suggestive. Also sunk by word of god.
 * Skinner x Edna, The Simpsons: To be fair, I think I liked this one mainly BECAUSE they split, and my 4th Grade self was salty about that.
 * Locke x Terra, Final Fantasy VI: I initially suspected they would go this route after a scene of Locke worrying over Terra, but it turned out that this was just Locke being angsty about his dead love. I was never able to get into Locke x Celes, though it's been 8 years since I played FFVI last. Also dubious distinction of the least canon pairing I've ever supported.
 * Jude x Leia, Tales of Xillia: Leia does have a crush on Jude, but Jude is dating Milla for all intents and purposes.
 * Tatsuya x Lisa, Persona 2: Lisa has a crush on Tatsuya, but between Maya and Jun, it's safe to say this isn't happening. I still think it would have been more interesting if they had been dating at the start, with an iffy relationship, and it's up to the player whether to keep it going or end it.
