Hiei and Kurama / Minamino Shuichi Anime Series: Yu Yu Hakusho The Good: There must be a reason why there’s so much of a fan following regarding these two, although their relationship was described as “best friends” in the series. They do look cute together, though. Taking as how Kurama is the only person Hiei will willingly open up to, it’s easy to see how they can look sweet together. Hiei is the world’s most angst-ridden loner, and Kurama is sunshine and roses incarnate, the contrast is very appealing. Another reason may be that Kurama looks like a girl, and if Hiei doesn’t want a girlfriend, he may as well have the next best thing. The Bad: This is a big no-no to Mukuro-Hiei and Kurama-Botan fans. On a more personal note though, the only bad thing we can see here is that Yoshihiro Togashi (YYH’s creator) didn’t add them that way in the actual series. But then, that’s just our two yen. =) 2. Koji and Izumi Anime Series: ZetsuAi ; Bronze The Good: To keep things simple, Koji is the polar opposite of Izumi. If Izumi is the disciplined one, Koji balances their relationship out by being the wild one of the pair. The Bad: Usual scenario: Koji gets hospitalized and Izumi takes care of him. Then Izumi gets hospitalized and Koji takes care of him. And the cycle goes on and on? 3. Heero Yuy and Duo Maxwell Anime Series: Gundam Wing The Good: Duo the “I’m always happy” guy and Heero the “I’m going to kill you” guy. This two guys just perfectly compliment each other. Not only do they pilot gundams and sort of work together, both are obssessed with the concept of “death”. The God of Death and the messenger of death. Pretty good combo, don’t you think? The Bad: Two words. Relena. And Hilde. Okay, so maybe that was three words... Miscellaneous Syndromes: They MIGHT be good couples, they MIGHT be bad couples, but they’re DEFINITELY weird couples. Satoshi / Ash Catchem and Pikachu Anime Series: Pokemon / Pocket Monsters The Good: It was a bit of a joke when it was suggested in the Pinoy Otaku Mailing List, so I don’t think this was supposed to be taken seriously. Hopefully. The Bad: As we have not much knowledge on the intricacies of beastiality, we leave the musings and what-ifs strictly up to you. Notes: Kudos to the Pinoy Otaku Mailing List for being most of this survey’s target! And remember, the votings were done in facts and figures, but any opinions in this article are our opinions and should not be taken seriously should it contrast with your own.
