[Riku]

I nominate Legoshi & Hal (Beastars)

I also nominate Coco & Tartah (With Hat Atelier)

and I'll support Tatsu & Miku (Gokushufudou)

 

[Brandish μ]

Supporting Tarou x Hanako the most because of that wedding, the build up to it, and the flashbacks were terrific. They're an entertaining pair in many ways.

Takagi x Nishikata I support as well for constant cuteness that doesn't get old (yet).

And Ren x Kyoko from Skip Beat! who I have been nominating quite a bit, and for this topic their developments were satisfying.


Adding Gokushufudou to my read list, given the nominations here and elsewhere.

Thank you !

 

[Brandish μ]

Voting for Kaguya x Miyuki.

The Way of the Husbando pairing had their moments in what I read, so they're a close second.

 

[Riku]

I'm a bit dissapointed Legoshi and Haru aren't here, but I do appreciate the fact that all these couples are couples whose chemistry is the whole point of their respective series.

Went with Gokushufudou. It's the funniest dynamic imho, and I appreciate the de-construction of gender stereotypic roles.

Tbh Haru has become more and more irrelevant. Legoshi even found another female rabbit

I've finished the series. Kyuu doesn't really mean anything to Legoshi. Haru is The Woman for him even in the end.

True though that the romance angle of the series is down played in the final arc.
