Choujin X - I'm currently on the fence regarding pairings for this series since it's still in its preliminary phases, but I am leaning towards supporting Tokio and Ely as a ship. While Tokio does have a crush on Monama, it seems pretty transient in nature, so I'm not sure if it will be treated seriously in the future since it's pretty one-sided and the two of them don't interact much, but who can say. Meanwhile, Tokio and Ely seem to have good chemistry with one another and Tokio does hint at being attracted to her a few times.
YOU'RE READING THAT ONE!!!!
I thought I was the only person reading it!!
So glad I found someone else who is also reading the series like me!
Anyway my immediate excitement aside, that's actually really interesting you view Tokio and Ely as a potential ship for Choujin X. Truth be told, I didn't really take into that consideration at all.
While I've been reading through the story I've been viewing their bond to be that of a a big brother and a little sister think of Kaneki & Hinami's bond from Ishida Sensei's first series.
When it comes to Tokio's crush on Maiko that is one where I feel it's too soon to make a judgement call on.
But if I know anything about Sui ishida and his writing style... the man have one pebble sized detail that could be considered a throwaway moment and somehow make it to where it becomes a major plot point or crucial building point for characters getting together.
So that is definitely one thing I'm keeping an eye on with this latest series: Choujin X
That aside, the idea of Tokio & Ely being a ship is something I could see depending what direction Sui Ishida goes into.
If you don't mind me asking Kagomaru, what's been your thoughts about the manga from the beginning to where we are currently at?
i apologize if my post is a bit much, I'm just excited somebody else is reading this series too
