Line 54:
** An even earlier [[Cartoon Network]] ad showed that [[Johnny Bravo]] and [[Scooby Doo|Velma]] dated, but it didn't work out. However, another ad years later showed them going to dinner, implied heavily to be romantic.
** Blossom/''[[Samurai Jack|Aku]]'', it even has a fan-following on Deviantart.
* There are enough Shonen Jump crossovers to justify any number of [[Bleach]], [[Naruto]] & [[DragonballDragon Ball]] ships; not that anyone needed an excuse.
** [[Bleach|Yoruichi]] X [[Naruto|Sakura]] art exists.
** As does Kakashi X Yoruichi
Line 104:
** And Stewie with [[The Simpsons (animation)|Maggie]].
* The fusion of ''[[Dynasty Warriors]]'' and ''[[Samurai Warriors]]'', aka ''[[Warriors Orochi]]'', played this to the extreme. Now we have Cao Pi/Mitsunari, Ling Tong/Okuni, Sun Shang Xiang/Inahime, Tachibana/XingCai, and so on and so forth...
* Ever since the release of ''[[Dissidia Final Fantasy]]'', the fandom has exploded with inter-series crossover pairings. Most notable of all: [[Final Fantasy XII|Gabranth]] and [[Final Fantasy VI|Terra]], [[Foe Yay|often adding]] [[Final Fantasy VI|Kefka]] as part of a [[Triang Relations|Type 7]] [[Love Triangle]] with Terra as the "Alice."
** [[Final Fantasy VII|Sephiroth]]/[[Final Fantasy IX|Kuja]], however, predates ''Dissidia'' by several years.
** [[Final Fantasy VII|Cloud]]/[[Final Fantasy VI|Terra]] has a following as well, as do [[Final Fantasy II|Firion]]/Terra and Firion/Cloud. Why these three? Besides Cloud's interactions with both of them, ''Dissidia'' heavily implies that Firion and Terra remind Cloud of [[Together in Death|Zack and Aerith]], and their personalities are reminiscent of them as well. It didn't take long for shippers to go from there. It helps Terra has no canon love interest.
** [[Final Fantasy VII|Cloud]]/[[Final Fantasy X|Yuna]] has been popular for awhile now; a recent boom no thanks to ''[[Dead Fantasy]]''.
** On the Chaos side, there is a large following for [[Minion Shipping|pairing up]] [[Final Fantasy II|Emperor Mateus]] and [[Final Fantasy VIII|Ultimecia]] due to their alliance in-game. They even briefly form a [[Battle Couple]] in the intro to lure Terra into one of the Emperor's [[Death Trap]]s.
** Also, [[Final Fantasy V|Exdeath]]/[[Final Fantasy III|Cloud of Darkness]]. [[Cargo Ship|Three]] [[Broken Record|guesses]] [[Birds of a Feather|why]].
** The prequel, ''Duodecim'', gives us [[Final Fantasy II|Firion]]/[[Final Fantasy XIII|Lightning]] due to their mutual bonding over flowers. Comes complete with [[Ship Tease]], as ''[[Final Fantasy IV|Cecil]]'' (the only canonically married member of Team Cosmos) plays the role of Firion's [[Shipper on Deck|wingman]] and takes his embarassment over wanting to talk to Lightning as romantic interest.

** [[Pirates of the Caribbean|Jack]]/[[The Little Mermaid|Ariel]] [https://web.archive.org/web/20110205111004/http://opallynn.deviantart.com/art/What-If-A-Bird-Loves-A-Fish-135562515 exists] [https://web.archive.org/web/20101219031624/http://opallynn.deviantart.com/art/Wet-Dream-Jack-and-Ariel-135697025 as] [https://web.archive.org/web/20121008104543/http://opallynn.deviantart.com/art/Before-Sunset-on-the-Third-Day-136292496 well]
* [[Final Fantasy VII|Sephiroth]]/[[Vagrant Story|Sydney]] works surprisingly well. Add Ashley or Aeris for bonus threesomes.
* Ever since the release of ''[[Dissidia Final Fantasy]]'', the fandom has exploded with inter-series crossover pairings. Most notable of all: [[Final Fantasy XII|Gabranth]] and [[Final Fantasy VI|Terra]], [[Foe Yay|often adding]] [[Final Fantasy VI|Kefka]] as part of a [[Triang Relations|Type 7]] [[Love Triangle]] with Terra as the "Alice."

* [[Tales of Vesperia|Estelle]]/[[BlazBlue|Jin Kisaragi]] is already being worked on. [http://www.fanfiction.net/s/5366441/1/Redemption_and_Beginnings Quite recently, actually...]
* Venom/Orochimaru shipping is out there.
Line 251 ⟶ 252:
* [[Spiderman Green|Goblin]] manages to hook up with [[Batman|Harley Quinn]] in ''I'm a Marvel, I'm a DC''. It's just as messed up as it sounds and twice as funny.
** And just because the creator loves doing it, he also gave us Poison Ivy and Sandman. Which makes sense if you think about it, except she'll probably cheat on him with Aquaman.
* [[Fullmetal Alchemist|Edward]] x [[Soul Eater|Maka]]. Probably because of [https://web.archive.org/web/20151031173516/http://www.mangatoshokan.com/read/Soul-Eater/Mahou-x/52 this].
* Pretty much a staple of "multifandom" [[Journal Roleplay]] games. Since these games dump characters together into one common setting, they ''can'' become [[Serious Business]] (particularly since LJRP itself is serious business), although they're often suggested for simple crack as well.
* [[Final Fantasy IX|Garnet]]x''[[Final Fantasy Versus XIII|Noctis]]'' has not only developed a following on [[YouTube]], it even has [http://www.fanfiction.net/s/5551303/1/Of_Sleepers_Shyness_and_Music_Motifs fic] now. Yes.
Line 362 ⟶ 363:
** There also seems to be a small but steadily increasing number of fans of Martin and one episode character Henry Knight.
* [[Doom (2016)|Doomguy]] and [[Animal Crossing|Isabelle]] became a popular crossover ship (usually friendly rather than romantic) due to their their 2020 games sharing a release date. There is a substantial amount of fanart, fanfics, and of course, memes.
* ''[[MAD]]'' magazine's parody of ''[[The Hunchback of Notre Dame (Disney film)|The Hunchback of Notre Dame]]'' had Belle fall for Quasimodo in the end. Why? She claimed her relationship with the Beast fell apart when he turned handsome, so she went looking for someone just as ugly as he had been before.
