| This question just popped in my mind when me and my male friends talked about shipping and two of them shipped Karma and Nagisa from AssClass. I wasn't really shocked because Nagisa is a trap after all but my friends said that they were totally aware that Nagisa is a boy. When asked for the reason why, they simply said that they had great chemistry together and it would be a shame if they end up with boring characters like Kayano or Okuda. I like Kayano but who couldn't resist this ship? |

| i do, more or less ironically such as Genos x Saitama, or Kirito x Klein |
 |
| I don't ship any characters disregarding his gender. It ruin that aspect of the show for me, if it isn't canon I don't like it... |

| 99.9%, if not, 100% of my ships are yaoi ships. So, yes, I am a male that ships males with other males in anime/manga. |
| "Yah!" -Tatsumi (Shiki) "You see, in our society, the phenomenon you call emotions is a mental disorder." -Kyubey (Mahou Shoujo Madoka Magica) "USODA!!!!!" -Rena Ryuugu (Higurashi no Naku Koro ni) "Help me, I'm 13 and I think I have life figured out!" -Onision  |
| Definitely. If two male characters have good chemistry together and subtle homoerotic nice interactions, I'll ship them as much as I want. |
 |
| Yes, we call them fudanshi. ............................ |

| OMG I ship that too! I also ship Karma x Asano Nagisa X Koro Kayano is boring, but I think it's canon for her x Nagisa :( |
| Tch! |
Mkim said: Wut? Nagisa and Karma are going to hook up? HELLA I'M ONLY 6 CHAPTERS AWAY FROM THAT YO YOU BASTARD, IF BY 6 CHAPTERS FROM NOW KARMA AIN'T WRECKING NAGISA'S ASS I'M GOING TO HUNT YOU Should I have spoilered that instead? Let me rephrase what I said. Do some straight males ship boys with other boys? |
|
Much likely ^_^ another one for me would be Kagami and Kuroko, Akashi and Midorima (If you are reading the manga =D) |
| Yeah, sometimes. Light x L would have been neat. I never liked Misa and it would have made the second half more interesting. Shinji x Kaworu too, but that's barely a ship. |

| uhhh yeah they do. Source: me. But that might just be because I'm a fag. |
 |
| That's something fujioshis do. Most of the time at least. It was kind of annoying seeing all the Mika x Yuu comments for Owari no Seraph tbh. |
   I envy your delusion; I wish I could live in it  |
| Absolutely. Those are the best kind of ships. kawoshin <3 |
| I do. All the time. It's a big part of my life. |
 |
| My cousin says he doesn't like shipping males together in anime unless there's a ton of gay undertones or all the girls in the anime are shit |

| I ship Haku and Oshutoru from Utawarerumono. They are perfect Also, I ship Zoro x Sanji |
| I don't so much "ship", I just look out for dem doujins~ |

The series started out ok but then it just started slowly going down hill, and the fujioshi bait later on didn't help much. I think I might start reading it though since the manga isn't much further than the anime. |

| Probably only Gay guys ship two male characters |
Extreme3708 said: Probably only Gay guys ship two male characters Or bi people. Honestly it doesn't make sense to do so otherwise. |
| nah i dont do that even with bromance |
| I do that ahahaha #Shizaya In all seriousness though, yes, a lot. I'm pansexual though so idk if it's just because of that |
 |

| Only one example. Sentarou and Kaoru in Sakamichi no Apollon. I usually prefer to see what the writer does with his characters rather than ship them, but this was the one instance where I felt a yaoi relationship would have worked really well. Of course, that would mess with the love pentagon thing going on in the show. |

When you ship two characters together, it's because you think they match each other emotionally and physically. If it's just emotionally, then you'd think they make really good friends like Ryner and Sion. If you're thinking physically, that includes hugs, holding hands, and kissing. If you want that to happen to two guys as a guy, you have to admit deep down you're either bi or gay. |
| yeah just like straight girls shipping female x female pairs nothing wrong with that |
That happens? Srsly? Women are so weird. |
| yeah, how can you not ship madoka or love live girls? it's so blatant |

TitanAnteus said: That's ridiculous. Of course a romantic relationship involves physical intimacy, but so what? Again, I never said I wanted to see graphic sexual content of them for my own pleasure, just that, from an entertainment perspective, their relationship would be nice. Any relationship, gay or straight, can be an enjoyable part of a story, without having sex appeal to the viewer.5hine said: Why?

-Senpai- said: totally agreed no point in shipping if the ship will never set sail anyways so you might as well ignore the ships made by everyone because we all know them kids ain't getting together.I don't ship any characters disregarding his gender. It ruin that aspect of the show for me, if it isn't canon I don't like it... |
 |
| Only one so far for me but its usually just as a joke: Raku x Shuu. |
| I only ship Naruto x Sasuke because they're clearly gay for each other. |
| recently, i can't stop gay shipping in koi to uso. |
 "If taking responsibility for a mistake that cannot be undone means death, it's not that hard to die. At least, not as hard as to live on." |
| I don't do it very often. I will much more commonly ship girls with other girls. I do hetero ships as well, but homo ships are more fun for some reason. |
  |
| Well if it floats their boat. As for me, hell no, that shit sinks my boat. |
My Queens  |
| No that is just way too weird for me. I still do it with girls though. |

| I rarely ship anime characters. Much less if both are of the same gender. Cause when I think of a beta male having romantic relationship with another beta male , it feels either weird or funny. Though I see no problem with boys having fun with boys or girls messing with girls temporarily. It's funny as long as it isn't permanent. ( My only ship = Accelerator x Last order ) |

"from an entertainment perspective, their relationship would be nice. Any relationship, gay or straight, can be an enjoyable part of a story, without having sex appeal to the viewer" No one shipped characters in Clannad to see them do the deed or even to kiss. They don't have to have sex appeal to the viewer. I just can't understand the perspective of "their relationship would be nice," when as friends they can still have a deep relationship. Like really deep. Ryner and Sion. You include implied sexual activity, it turns into something romantic and then your own personal preferences kick in and takes it from there. It also changes the relationship into something more physical usually. If it doesn't I'd hardly call it a relationship. merryfistmas said: Not really, there are differences between a romantic and platonic relationship beyond sexual activity. If 2 people decide, while I'm seeing you I won't be seeing anyone else, I DO consider that a relationship. Don't see why I'd want that though. It sounds like you just want to be really good friends with someone and don't want them to never not be a part of your life.... like a friend. Mayuka said: yeah, how can you not ship madoka or love live girls? it's so blatant By not wanting Madoka to end up with her friends ruining their sense of tightknit friendship. If you say something like, "she wanted to restart the universe for her!" Remember this is Japan, and crazier shit has been done for the sake of "nakama." Why do people want to view close relations with the same gender with romance so easily? Does friendship not matter to you? Have you seen Love Lab? |

Why do people view close relations with opposite gender with romance so easily? Answer that. |
TitanAnteus said: Why do people want to view close relations with the same gender with romance so easily? Does friendship not matter to you? It's called "yaoi/yuri goggles". Have you ever experienced watching the world in an unusual way, for example looking for one specific thing? It's the same thing - you're looking for yaoi/yuri and you find them. |
