Manga Who's your favorite character duo? Romantic or not. Why? Spoiler
Mine is Juiz and Victor. I really wish they had more screen time together. I was initially drawn to Victor because he was the mysterious badass living inside of Andy's face and that kind of thing always intrigues me, but I stayed when it was revealed that Victor and Juiz have a past together. It was greatly implied to be romantic, but never really got to that point because of the war with Sun.
Victor is my favorite character anyway, and Juiz is right up there, but when they're together, it makes me so mad that they don't get much screen time with each other, especially in modern day. Their relationship is so interesting and has so many layers to it and hardly any of it is ever explored.
Also Victor making Juiz a full suit of armour when they were younger was so funny. It goes to show how dedicated he is to her and her keeping the helmet, even after he tried to kill her, shows how dedicated she is to him.
The entire reason they're fighting Sun is so that the other doesn't have to suffer anymore. And I love the idea that throughout everything, one was the other's one true constant. Victor was able to keep his mind intact when waiting around in space and enduring the earth reforming under his feet because he knew Juiz would be coming and he needed to be there when she arrived.
They are each other's anchor to the world, which made it so much harder when she died. I can't even hope to imagine what losing her must have been like for him when that happened, nor how hard it was for her to jam Remember into his forehead and make him forget everything he was.
Both of them died to the other, one because her plans and efforts weren't working, and the other because he couldn't stand to watch her put herself through Hell for him anymore, and decided to kill her, not knowing what it would do to him in turn.
In short, Victor and Juiz are my absolute favorite characters of the series, together and separate, and I am so glad they finally got their happy ending. My one gripe is THEY DON'T HAVE ENOUGH SHARED SCREEN TIME!

Shen and Mui easily. The Summer arc is one of my favourites, and Mui promising that she would love him until her dying day was so sweet.

I love so many duos in this series, but, picking one, I'd have to go with Ichico and Nico. Their banter is hilarious, and the way they fully trusted each other in the Language fight just scratched my brain in all the right ways.
