* There's a very scary amount of ''[[Gundam]]'' fanfiction and art involving [[Humongous Mecha]] humping each other -- and they aren't even sentient like the [[Transformers]].

** Far more disturbing than the Gundam-on-Gundam action, however, is the human-on-Gundam. (It exists in ''Wing'' and ''00'' fandoms, at least.)

** Oh, but what takes the cake has to be Graham "[[Fan Nickname|Flag F___er]]" Aker from ''[[Mobile Suit Gundam 00 ~~(Anime)~~|Gundam 00]]''. The man has to be the [[Launcher of a Thousand Ships|Launcher Of A Thousand]] [[Cargo Ship|Cargo Ships]]: his Flags from the first season, his [[Fan Nickname|Shin Musha Flags]] from the second season, Exia, the titular 00, [[Ships That Pass in ~~The~~ Night|Haro]], [[Crack Pairing|Ptolomaius I and II]]...

** In the case of Shinji and Asuka, being shipped with their EVAs is actually {{spoiler|incest}}. In case it wasn't wrong enough.

** Would that include Gendo×{{spoiler|Unit-01}}? Because that's sort of canon...

*** There is actually a fanfic about Gendo being caught {{spoiler|masturbating in Unit-01's entry plug - by Shinji noticing the droplets of semen floating in the LCL during a synch test, nonetheless}}. Absolutely everyone in the cast knows immediately it was him and are [[What the Hell, Hero?|squicked out by it]].

* A couple of third and fourth options have been suggested in regards to ''[[~~Macross Frontier (Anime)|~~Macross Frontier]]'s'' [[Love Triangle]], Alto×VF-25 and Alto×the sky respectively, though these were mainly suggested for laughs (we hope) it does kinda make sense in a very eerie way.

** And in the first ''Macross Frontier'' movie we now have Ranka [[Cosplay Otaku Girl|cosplaying a VF-25]]. It even transforms between Battroid and Gerwalk modes (and the Gerwalk mode looks like Ranka doing the VF-25)...

*** Ranka clearly knows what he likes.

** Along a similar vein, the YF-19 could be seen as one of Isamu's distractions from the ''[[~~Macross Plus (Anime)|~~Macross Plus]]'' [[Love Triangle]].

* As well as ''[[Zone of the Enders]]'', but when you consider the resident [[Humongous Mecha|Humongous Mechas]]' already phallic [[Incredibly Lame Pun|cockpits]], perhaps it was just a [[Freud Was Right|logical step]].

** Notable is the fact that the main mechas in the series all have AIs with female personalities, and all three of them become really close to their (male) pilots. The one exception being ''The 2nd Runner'', where the pilot constantly teases the AI about her friendship with the pilot of the ''first'' game.

* There is a particularly pervasive pairing circulating the ''Bee Train'' fan community: [[~~Madlax (Anime)|~~Madlax]]/curtain. It was spawned by a single scene near the beginning of the series where the titular [[Action Girl]] sneaks into the apartment of her target and wraps herself in a curtain for no apparent reason, looking both adorably cute and damn hawt at the same time.

** Technically unnamed, but amongst ''[[Pokémon Special]]'' readers you have N X Ferris Wheel.

** Also, Winry×Wrench. It's been suggested.

** Al x Mei, which also doubles as a (minor) [[May-December Romance]]. Poor Al. {{spoiler|This one's canon in the end, though May had the sense to start dating Al ''after'' he got his body back.}}

** Nina×Table. Technically not canon, just spawned from a masturbation scene. And within fandom, the table is referred to as "Table-kun" (see [[Memetic Mutation]]).

** The folks at 4chan gave us a Schneizel×Kannon's hat fanfic. And no, [http://trainwreck.ggkthx.org/2008/09/22/a-you-are-wonderful/ see for yourself].

Line 89:

** C.C. x Pizza. Don't tell me that isn't canon.

** You could also make a strong case for Lloyd x Lancelot.

* ''[[Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha (~~Anime~~)|Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha]]'': Bardiche/Raising Heart. It's only fair; everyone else on that show gets shipped with someone. Plus, given that they happen to be intelligent [[Empathic Weapon|empathic weapons]] whose owners are more or less canon, it is more probable than most of the choices here.

* ''[[~~Dominion Tank Police (Anime)|~~Dominion Tank Police]]''. Leona×Bonaparte (her ''tank'') is almost canon, what with how much she obsesses over it. We also see her nearly ''humping'' a motorcycle in ''New Dominion Tank Police'' during a flashback showing her as a motorcycle cop prior to joining the tank police. Her partner even lampshades it, and Leona isn't afraid to admit it.

{{quote| '''Leona:''' I can't help it. It's the feeling of cold metal. It makes me all tingly.}}

** Her coworkers certainly seem to think that this is canon, after an incident where after spending the night as Buaku's prisoner, she ignores her partner/would-be boyfriend to embrace Bonaparte.

* In ''[[~~Burn Up (Anime)|~~Burn Up]] Excess'' (and ''W''), Maya Jingu ''loves'' her firearms. In one episode of ''Excess'' in particular, she is shown laying down and holding a rifle at a firing range, stripped to her underwear and getting a lot of...satisfaction from pulling the trigger.

* There's a running gag in the ''[[~~Katekyo Hitman Reborn (Manga)|~~Katekyo Hitman Reborn]]'' fandom involving Hibari/Namimori. And no, we don't mean the student body, we mean ''the school itself''. Talk about taking school pride a step too far...

* ''[[~~Akikan (Anime)|~~Akikan]]'' mostly avoids this by applying [[Moe Anthropomorphism]] to its soda can girls, but Kakeru fully embodies this trope when he decides to flirt with a vending machine that has a female voice programmed in. Twice. And in episode 7 he makes out with a ''chair''.

** There's one [[Fanfic]] with a perfect example of this: Kaiba and his ego.

** There's actually a canon example, too. Seto is definitely ''very'' attached to his Blue Eyes White Dragon. {{spoiler|It turns out that the original Blue Eyes was created from the spirit of his past life's murdered girlfriend.}}

* ''[[~~Mahou Sensei Negima (Manga)|~~Mahou Sensei Negima]]'': Natsumi×Leek.

* ''[[Mahou Sensei Negima]]'': Natsumi×Leek.

* A surprisingly good ''[[Descendants of Darkness]]'' [[Fanfic]] ships Muraki, Oriya, and Oriya's katana. They used the [[Squick|handle]], not the [[Body Horror|blade]].

** Also similar to the ''Umineko'' example, Chie×Curry. It's one of the ''more popular'' pairings in Japan, at least it was before the anime was released.

* ''[[Gunsmith Cats]]'': Rally Vincent×CZ75. Thankfully not loaded, but she certainly violated the first rule of firearm safety.

* ''[[Macademi Wasshoi]]'': Trincia×Rocket. And it's CANON.

* Then there's one crossover between ''[[Tenchi Muyo]]'' and ''[[Star Wars]]'', about someone Ryoko and Ryo-ohki met in their early travels. {{spoiler|The ''Millennium Falcon''. Although at least it was Ryo-Ohki's love interest.}}

* Actually implicitly done ''in-universe'' with ''[[Sentou Yousei Yukikaze]]''. The main character, [[The Stoic|Fukai Rei]], only displays emotion with regard to his [[Ho Yay|CO]], Jack Bukhar, and his aircraft's AI, the eponymous Yukikaze. All the episodes basically tells us that the AI depended on Rei as much as Rei depended on her. This includes Rei distrusting the aircraft enough to have a breakdown in mid-battle (which only words of encouragement from Rei finally make Yukikaze recover), the aircraft forcibly pulling Rei out of a soon-to-be-blown [[Flying Aircraft Carrier]], to Rei trusting his aircraft even when she is about to commit suicide (which she finally didn't, simply because Rei is onboard). Even a psychologist actually concludes, in-universe, that Yukikaze has a measurable emotion much like a human, despite the AI looking nothing remotely like human, and the only sound we hear from her is when she executes a command, or when her camera (pointing to Rei, no less) focuses and refocuses, as if someone nodding/shaking her head.

** The next best thing to [[Word of God]], the designer himself said Yukikaze was a series where the eponymous jet was the heroine.

Line 168:

** {{spoiler|1=Debatable, as the Nirvasch, while mecha like in nature, DOES turn out to be a sentient, living being born by the Coral. Note also the many references to LFOs dying in the mine sequence.}}

* Sometimes it seems that Vice-principal Uchiyamada in ''[[Great Teacher Onizuka]]'' loves his car more than he loves his family. The way he gushes over it -- complete with kissy faces, caressing, and blushing -- makes one wonder whether he'd have preferred to marry it rather than his emotionally cold wife.

* ''[[Idolmaster Xenoglossia]]'' completely runs with it: the only way to pilot the giant robots is to treat them like a boyfriend. Of course, the robots themselves are sentient, so there was one case of a giant robot recording a video of Haruka telling the robot that she wants to "show him everything", and then taking her shirt off.

** The series also has something of a ''canon'' [[Cargo Ship]] in that {{spoiler|Anri's [[Empathic Weapon]], Saika, has a bizarre romantic attachment to Shizuo. Anri has trouble focusing around him simply because the sword gets terribly...''excited'' whenever she so much as looks at him}}.

** I believe Celty/Celty's Bike deserves some special mention as well.

Line 182:

** There's also Kida×Hoodie.

* Kino from ''[[~~Kino's Journey (Light Novel)|~~Kino's Journey]]'' is often shipped with her talking motorcycle Hermes; not surprising since he is Kino's only companion, and the only sentient being she feels a real bond to.

* Kino from ''[[Kino's Journey]]'' is often shipped with her talking motorcycle Hermes; not surprising since he is Kino's only companion, and the only sentient being she feels a real bond to.

* ''[[Speed Grapher]]''. I mean, seriously. It’s not only canon but a major plot point that Saiga has a fetish for his camera. And Ginza has a fetish for her gun. That’s not to mention all of the villains. There’s a woman with a fetish for diamonds, a dentist who just loves teeth, a guy who simply adores tattoos, a guy who loves music, and one who likes food. This is all completely canon.

* In one episode of ''[[Sonic X]]'', while aboard a cruise ship and going insane, Sonic gets Tails worked up about the [[Cool Plane|X-Torando]] being lonely.

* ''[[Saitama Chainsaw Shoujo]]'': [[Yandere|Fumio]] [[Girl ~~With~~ Psycho Weapon|and her]] [[Chainsaw Good|chainsaw]]. Even the [[Doom (Comic Book)|Doomguy]] never had [http://www.mangafox.com/manga/saitama_chainsaw_shoujo/v01/c005/19.html this much love] for his [[Weapon of Choice]].

* In ''[[Sora no Manimani]]'', [[Cloudcuckoolander|Cloud Cuckoo Landers]] Kawamura and Minami have a fetish for ''constellations''.

* ''[[Mushishi]]''. In one case a girl gets... rather attached to a particular swamp. In another episode, a woman begins to visit a white bamboo tree when she and her husband are unable to conceive. She even gets ''pregnant'' from said relationship with bamboo tree. The circumstances surrounding both of them are odd, but I believe that it qualifies for this trope.

* And then in ''[[~~Samurai Seven|~~Samurai 7]]'', there's Kikuchiyo and Kamachi -- which, like the Al×Mei ship above, also doubles as May-December Romance. [[Crowning Moment of Funny|Assuming he really isn't thirteen, of course.]]

* ''[[Soul Eater]]'' gives us Marie Mjolnir, who sees herself as such a [[Christmas Cake]] she plans to marry a toilet on the grounds that "It will accept anything she gives it". [[Sarcasm Mode|It's a very classy series]].

* ''[[Himawari]]!'' presents us with a dual, canon one in the form of Cherry Tree×Chimney. Granted, it's the ''kami'' (god) of the tree that's in love with the chimney, but still.

* The [[Title Sequence]] of ''[[School Rumble]]'' shows a sequence of [[All Love Is Unrequited|unrequited loves]], ending with Oji being in love with curry. (Who the curry is in love with is left a mystery.)

* In ''[[Tiger and Bunny]]'', the superheroes collectively decided to give Barnaby "Bunny" Brooks Jr. a stuffed rabbit for his birthday. The fandom has since shipped said rabbit with both Barnaby and Kotetsu, usually as a surrogate for the other half of the duo.

Not only was S.A.R.A.H. his creation, he also created an AI (Tabitha) for his car, which also turned into a [[Clingy Jealous Girl]] when he sold her (the car was an ancient Chrysler); she kidnapped him after making him fall into her trunk. As part of some very blatant but still well-done [[Product Placement]], he settles the dispute by transferring Tabitha to his new Subaru.
