Yesterday: B-b-b-burninate seared through the competition, and the rest were pretty tightly packed together.

1st- Burninate (7)
2nd- Happy Happy (3)
3rd- Lurgy/Sneaky/Freezinate (2)

Today: We're talking ships! I chose the 5 that are canon in-game, or at least heavily alluded to, and for the rest I looked at the most popular pairings on a fanfiction site. Apparently Shulk/Egil is very popular for some reason.

Tomorrow: Best Boss Fight

I think I like Sharla/Reyn better than either of Shulk's pairings but I voted Shulk/Melia anyway on general principle

Riki and Oka raised Nene and Oka, and they turned out pretty great.

I honestly don't really like any of these, lol. I'm glad none of them were big parts of the game. I guess Shulk/Fiora is fine though.

^Riki/Reyn is a good option for an enemies to lovers pair!

I agree with those saying Sharla/Reyn is good, they have a natural chemistry and the game doesn't force their relationship past where it would be reasonable with the Gadolt stuff (looking at you, FFX!).

Sharla/Reyn is the right answer but I am legally obligated to vote Shulk/Melia to emphasize how disgusting Shulk/Fiora is.

Wait why do people prefer Melia x Shulk to Melia x Dunban?

It's funny that Dunban is the cool sexy sword hero guy everybody loves and yet nobody puts him in a romantic context with anyone. Dunban/Dunban's right arm is the only valid pairing.

I kinda liked seeing Riki/Oka as a married couple. It feels like something you dont usually see for main characters.

I'd probably be mean to my husband too if he knocked me up with that many littlepons and then was such a deadbeat he had to be selected as heropon to pay off our debts.

Doesn't she then immediately accrue significantly more debt!

Another day for this

Look, being married to the heropon, you just get used to a certain type of lifestyle.
