Canon pairs I have no gripe with (central characters only):
- Keiichi + Belldandy
Kenshin + Kaoru
Kaoru + Aoi
Kenshiro + Yuria
Usagi + Mamoru
Yuusuke + Keiko
Akito + Yurika
Terry Bogard + "Blue Mary" [Mary Ryan]
Andy Bogard + Mai Shiranui
- Harry Potter + Ginny Weasley (no, I am *not* a Harry/Hermione supporter; that's simply WRONG)
Naruto + Sakura (since I hear the manga seems like it's going that way; personally I prefer Naruto + Hinata)
- Ranma + Akane (I've had a Ranma + Kasumi softspot for ages and I loathe Akane)
Keitaro + Naru (Mutsumi forever!)
Mary likes him, but he is absolutely, totally not interested in her beyond a good friend. He said it himself, fighting is what he truly loves, and he's too much of a loner to consider any other way.
As for Andy, he's pathologically afraid of commitment, and in one of the manga, Terry flat out says he thinks Mai will never get him, because: one, he's almost as obsessed with his perceived inadequacy as Terry is with fighting, and two: he doesn't WANT to start a family, and Mai's insistence is scaring him.
Just so you know. Some think Hokutomaru is their kid - that's FALSE. He's a Shiranui clan ninja, and Andy's pupil, but not their kid.
The most official SNK pairing is Galford/Nakoruru, actually. Nakoruru is well aware of Galford's affection, and returns it, but her duty to Nature comes first.
Other official pairings appear to include Billy Lee and Marian in the Double Dragon neogeo game and Jimmy Lee and Rebecca, also in the DD game.
Then Pepe and Pupa in Rage of the Dragons... actually, wait, the entire RotD cast is paired up one way or the other.
Also, going out of SNK, there's the strange lovehate relationship between Zappa and S'ko in Guilty Gear, and the equally odd almost-yuri friendship between May and Dizzy. Also, Anji-Mito likes Baiken, but she told him not to bother, as her mission takes precedence, and he agreed to back off.
Just a few tidbits.
