I honestly think Zane-chan is a terrible ship.



Don’t get me wrong, I love the whole “opposites attract” trope, but most opposites attract pairings have only opposite looks and opposite personalities, but still have the same basic views and outlooks on life. They handle situations in similar ways and have similar likes and interests deep down. They need to have compatible traits.



That’s not the case with Zane and Kawaii-Chan.



For one, Zane has a rather short tempered and straightforward attitude while Kawaii-Chan is more delicate and easily upset. I’d imagine a good partner for Zane would be somebody who is patient and willing to learn to love him even if he gets angry easily. Kawaii-chan has displayed in past episodes of Aphmau’s series that she is easily hurt and extremely sensitive. With her being sensitive and Zane losing his temper constantly, I feel as if that could be a toxic mix in a possible relationship. And if you want to say, “well, maybe they could change each other in those ways” that would be risking the loss of traits that make them who they are.



Now another reason people seem to ship them that I’ve noticed is because they both like “My Little Horsie.” I’m sorry, but thinking they’d be a good couple just because they both like a series is ridiculous. That’s like if I were to ship Merida and Katniss because they’re both skilled archers. If Aphmau were to build on their interests and provide more common ground for their likes then that could fix a lot.

Maybe she could actually attempt to think of ships and their pros and cons, and if, realistically, they could work. Aphmau, please think more about Zane-Chan, because I personally think it’s a terrible ship.
