Heliotropic 139 Report post Posted October 31, 2015 Not to be rude, but hasn't this topic been done time and time again? Shinichi and Ran are the canon pairing, so I'd say it's logical to assume that they are going to be together, especially after all of the development, backstory, and the confession... They have a deep history, and a very similar way of thinking. Shinichi and Shiho or Conan/Haibara will only exist in fan-fiction (even stated by Gosho that it's "impossible) so the whole basis for a relationship is that it would be more interesting than the canon pairing. It's pretty much destined to only be a platonic relationship. It's completely one-sided, and most of the implications that Ai likes Conan are rather subtle to begin with. There is no way that Conan will reciprocate the same feelings for Haibara as he has with Ran. I'm on neither side, and I do not care what people "ship", though I'll say that Ai is one of my favorite characters and I think that if she were to have a love interest, be it Shinichi or anyone else, that it would feel forced, nor would it make sense to me at this point in the story. Gosho's not the best at handling romance either, so I think the assumption that Shinichi/Shiho would be more interesting is a stretch at best. I do not like the prospect of Conan/Ai as a couple. However, I very much do like the interactions between these characters. The length of the series can have a rather negative effect when it comes to developing certain characters/relationships too... but that goes without saying. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Heliotropic 139 Report post Posted October 31, 2015 you are not rude folks should read and search before they post and open new topics You're certainly right about that. I hadn't checked so I wasn't entirely sure, but there are many similar topics as is, and a couple "nearly identical" ones. Most of them are on the very first page so it's hard to miss.
