Shuuhei/Yumichika...?

Seriously. I've seen a lot of fanart/fanfic for this pairing, and I have no idea how this has gotten so popular for two characters that (to my knowledge) haven't met in canon.

Not that I judge people's preferences; in fact, Bleach has one of the most diverse samplings of couplings of any fandom I've been in, other shipper bullshit aside, but I'm just a bit...surprised, is all. *is unsure*

They have met, actually. In Soul Society they fought and Yumichika won by using his shikai. At that time Kubo still keep the ability mysterious, so Yumichika released his zanpakutou and the next thing Hisagi's already drained of energy.

I don't understand how it got so popular either... IIRC there was a fanfic writer who liked them and wrote a lot of fics to the LJ comm so I guess it gained a following because of that.

I don't know. Why is any pairing with Kira popular? That's what I (don't really) want to know.

Cause Shuuhei's the fandom bike, everyone gets a ride.
