I KNOW. Before we knew the whole set up I was like PLEASE DON'T LET THEM PAIR OFF, I KNOW I WON'T BE ABLE TO ROOT FOR SHITT P OVER GOKUDERA BUT HE DESERVES A FUCKING WIN, DAMNIT.
I'm just going to pretend that the Vindice think it is April First and this is all a horrible, horrible joke. EVERYONE WHO LOST IS NOT ACTUALLY IN PRISON, THERE ON A NEARBY ISLAND LOLING.
Me too. Now this makes me ship Gokudera/Shitt P so much until I can't root for any of them ;A;
Everyone on a nearby island LOLing. I love that idea because this means that Ryohei and Aoba can chillax there. We never know how the Vindice or Amano-sensei's brain works anyway~
RYOHEI AND AOBA ARE PROBABLY NOT CHILLAXING. Rauji can take care of that part for them, but they're totally arguing over who can compliment Kyoko's cooking more. Or such.
You ship it so hard because they ship it so hard. Shitt P: "I would do you." Gokudera: "I'm pretending real hard I didn't hear that because the Tenth is right there but omg the research!!"
It's annoying that even though Gokudera really needs a win, his opponent is absolutely too fabulous to cheer against. I'll just scream happily when either one does something.
I'm pretty sure Shitt P/Gokudera is like two words away from standing neck and neck with Ryohei/Hana for my favorite het ship in this fandom for exactly that reason. That, and because she is the perfect person to SLAP SOME FUCKING SELF-SUFFICIENCY INTO THAT BOY.
The make-or-break factor for me was actually their individual examples of "pride." If Shitt P loses, it's kind of like saying A MAN WHO FIGHTS FOR ANOTHER MAN IS STRONGER THAN A WOMAN WHO FIGHTS FOR HERSELF. Which would piss me off.
SLAP SOME FUCKING SELF-SUFFICIENCY INTO THAT BOY. I'm torn. Gokudera is self-sufficienct to me - he's picked his goal (right hand!) and is proud of having opportunities to achieve it, but on the other hand the goal is bound up in the need for acceptance, and he's probably never going to be completely over that even though he's become a lot less nutbar. I think I see Shitt P and Gokudera as equal but opposite, and both their philosophies have their downside. (Disclaimer: ain't read chapter 315, don't know how the philosophising of the fight is shaping up. Might decide one way or the other depending on what happens.)
If Shitt P loses, it's kind of like saying A MAN WHO FIGHTS FOR ANOTHER MAN IS STRONGER THAN A WOMAN WHO FIGHTS FOR HERSELF. ....urgh, gross, now I'm totally agreed that Shitt P has to win. Especially with the track* record of this fucking manga wrt gender politics lately. of course now I think that she will lose ahahaha HORK.
... Self-sufficiency wasn't the word I was looking for. Self-dependency? Self-confidence? Still not quite right. I will get back to you on this, go read 315 in the meanwhile 8D
SHE NEEDS TO WIN, I WILL BE SO DISAPPOINTED OTHERWISE. Both Shimon women need to win, in fact. Because I fucking love them and Hibari couldn't possibly have a more worthwhile pride to support than Adelheid, because his world revolves around fighting and Namimori.

Damn it, I also want Shitt P to win too. It's like I don't want any of them to go Vindice because they are as wonderful...

Oh, and the idea of Mukuro or Hibari losing is laughable coz the Japanese fans would crack the shits with Amano and burn down WJ.
