IttoGorou

IttoGorou is the slash ship between Arataki Itto and Gorou from the Genshin Impact fandom.

Canon
Gorou and Itto don't have any interactions in the game since both characters haven't been released in the actual game. Although, it seems both of them already know each other because of Itto's leaked voiceline about Gorou. There's also a high possibility for both characters to interacted since they're living in the same nation, Inazuma. There's also an official art the includes the two of them.

When looking into Itto's voiceline about Gorou, it seems that he sees Gorou as a friend who can understand his feelings. Even though they only meet from time to time during work. He also stated that Gorou can be quite small but he sure has a great fighting spirit. He tells that Gorou has this vibe that makes him all warm and fuzzy inside, as if he has understands his innermost feelings. Though he claims that it's kinda weird as he barely met Gorou.

Sadly, Gorou has no voiceline whatsoever about Itto nor he was mentioned on any of his stories.

In gameplay, both characters use the same element, Geo. Itto uses a claymore in combat while Gorou uses a bow. Itto can be a main in fighting enemies and Gorou can be his support on the team. They can play well as a geo duo. Gorou is also in Itto's banner.

Quotes
"Oh yeah, the doggy general in the resistance. Hey, I've gotta hand it to him, he may be on the small side, but he's got quite the fighting spirit. Also, he gives off this vibe that makes me feel all warm and fuzzy inside, almost as if he understands my innermost feelings...I mean, I've barely met the guy, so that's kinda weird."
