Gunpla Mechs Pairings That I Think Have Enemies To Lovers Vibe

Shipping is a term used by fans of specific media to refer to relationships of characters they enjoy. These relationships are often canon to the story, meaning it’s confirmed by the creator/plot. Other ships are typically fan ships of characters that fans like to see together. A few examples of popular ships are Dean/Castiel, Kirk/Spock, and Buffy/Spike.

Today’s topic of shipping reaches out to the common trope of โ€œenemies to loversโ€. It comes from another Discord member. If you’d like to join our discord, click this link. It’s a real snazzy place.

I can’t think of many mech pairs besides char suits paired with Amuro’s RX-78-2 (and other suits he piloted). It can’t be helped. Char and Amuro are like a bitterly divorced couple. I mean, just look at them when they fight. They are the titular example of the trope.
