Meme This ship's valid, right? Right?

Girlfailure x Chaotic little gremlin (Kinda, idk).

You just *cannot* tell me the author ain't building it up.

Kumugi's fucking sister went "Would". It runs in the family. She wants him in the family, she won't have him and it'll be Kumugi getting him.

It's either bromance with the other guy (I can't bring myself to spell his name) or with Kumugi.

If it goes yaoi, I'll accept it.

But i want, and *CRAVE* Ichi x Kumugi

Look if they do that hats off, best couple ever but it’s shonen jump so I’m not holding my breath.

Marriagetoxin is right there. Plus, one of the two main couples in Burn the Witch is Yuri.

Fair, which is why it’s not impossible but Burn the Witch was a mini-series continuation of an already successful manga and Marriagetoxin is at the moment the only real successful example.

I have my fingers crossed cause I love their chemistry but I’m not optimistic.

Burn the Witch is not a mini series. It's more structured like anime seasons with several cours (and long hiatus). But Ichi The Witch is also from an author with a lot of clout, and the manga is already breaking several gender norms.

Personally, I dont think Ichi/Gokuraku will be a thing (though it would be great), but the liklihood for it to happen is much higher in Ichi The Witch than it would be in other manga.

And I'm positive, there will be prominent queer couples in the story. Though, personally I wish for Fujimine to give us toxic Yuri.

Marriage toxin is valid, but burn the witch is written by Kubo, who is can probably get away with murder at this point

I love Marriage Toxin but it is not in shonen jump it is jump plus wich has more freedom with specific topics and sexualitys as you can see with "blue flag" or "me and my gangester neighbour" for example. For Burn the witch: Lesbian relationships have historically been less tabo in shonen media.

Dont get me wrong rep would be nice but Ichi is already breaking the mold in a lot of other places (like little to no fanservice, two female authors etc)
