What two toa would make a good couple?

[-Jaller-]

Basically I want to find out who people think would make a good Toa couple. Like Toa Marhi Jaller and Hahli I find would be a good couple. What do you think?

[Ballom Nom Nom]

Kopaka and Pohatu. Kohatu forever, man.Also Jaller/Hahli and Hewkii/Macku, of course. Even if the latter involves a Toa and a Matoran, their love will overcome the difference.~B~

I saw the topic title and was going to say what you just said. Why do people always beat me to these things. ;_;Anyways, I've always thought Jaller and Hahli would be a good couple, especially when they were both cute little Matoran and before Hahli had a mustache...

I agree. You win for that. Also, remembering what B6 did to xccj's MOCs at Brickfair.@Meiko: She doesn't have a mustache anymore! Edited August 8, 2012 by Architect

That's what made me think of it. I mean, c'mon, Pohatu was even doing the old reach-around on Kopaka. No one can say that's not true love!~B~

[Toa Smoke Monster]

I always thought Tahu and Gali would make a good couple. That or Kapaka and Gali.

I dont think male love is appropriate for bionicle or even culturally accepted. They could be best friends for life or a inseparable team but not lovers.

Love is love regardless of sex, gender, or old-fashioned cultural misconceptions.that said, I generally shy away from Bionicle shipping but I absolutely second (or third? or fourth?) Kohatu.

[Sumiki]

BrickFair convinced me that, should I ever decide to ship fictional characters, Kohatu is the best ship to ship.

[Kaleidoscope Tekulo]

Hmm... I do like Lewa and Onua together. Though, I am an avid shipper of Hewkii/Macku (though, she's not a toa XP) as well as Hahli and Jaller. Also Lesovikk and Nikila (you know... when she was still alive ^^')

[GSR]

Hmm... I do like Lewa and Onua together.

You know, I recently reviewed a friend's story with that pairing on another site. Wasn't bad, actually. Could've used a little more buildup, though, since it's at best a tilt-your-head-and-squint pairing.As for my thoughts on the subject, I'm boring. Probably just the semi-canon Jaller/Hahli and Hewkii/Macku. Edited August 8, 2012 by GSR

[Flex Lord Splash]

I say Nokama and Nuju, just for fun.

I agree. The most accepted belief as far as I know, its genetic. If there is male to female love in Bionicle, it would make scene that there would be male to male or female to female. I'm totally pro homosexual relation ships in books as long as they dont go over board. I have seen a lot of shows that do . They dont seem to ever get it quite right.

And why is that, exactly? The way I see it, they'd be perfectly fine with same-gender pairings in the Matoran Universe. I mean, in their universe, there's no real difference between a male and a female biologically, so why would they all be straight? They'd see no difference between, say, Jaller and Hahli going out and Jaller and Takua/Takanuva dating.I would really like to see your reasoning for this. Male love is very appropriate; I don't know why you even said it wasn't in the first place. There is absolutely nothing wrong with all-male or all-female love. And why couldn't they be lovers? I would really like you to answer these questions; I'm very curious as to your reasoning behind them.But, relevant to the topic at hand: I can't say I really thought about this all that much (for some reason I more considered the Glatorian) but I'd say... Vakama and Nokama, or Lewa and Onua. Just off the top of my head.

[Alyska]

I'm gonna rock the boat a bit and say Hahli x Matoro. I liked Hahli and Jaller together when they were Matoran, but Jaller's personality has changed too much in recent years, I think. And Greg seemed to go so far out of his way to avoid any romance implications between those two that they don't even seem to be particularly close as friends any more.Meanwhile, Hahli and Matoro had a lot in common. They both had that struggle with their confidence and weren't sure whether they were fit to be Toa. From what we saw, they worked well together, and Matoro had a degree of warmth and caring about him that Jaller no longer outwardly shows. Hahli also seemed to be the most affected by Matoro's death. I also liked what we saw of Lesovikk and Nikila. (No, I don't have a particular preference for tragic ships... why do you ask?)And, at the risk of going slightly off-topic, I fancied the idea that Gelu might become attracted to Chiara, which would fail for obvious reasons. Gelu would eventually get over her, and Kiina would get over Mata Nui, eventually resulting in Gelu x Kiina.

[Vandenreich]

Oh my this topic might generate some "Heated Disscusion" :PAnyways I always thought Takanuva/Takua and Gali would be nice together. To me Takua/Takanuva always looked up to Gali the most of the Nuva and Gali seemed the most caring to him. Not to mention she inspired him to become a hero/Toa back in Karda Nui, and they always had their little mental link xD.

Ugh, that's something that's always bothered me about Greg's writing. =/ (and a bunch of other things, but I digress). You know, in the canon, this pairing would totally work for the reasons you've discussed. However, now that Matoro has kicked the bucket (a good laugh was had by all... or maybe just me. XD) that opens up some room for character development for Jaller. Perhaps he may realize how important friendships are and open up a bit AND CLAIM HIS TRUE LOVE, HAHLI! ... I wish... (You saved her from falling into lava dangit! It was totally romantic, so Y U NO KISS?!)...(Actually kissing with masks would be kind of awkward, wouldn't it? Y U NO HOLD HANDS?!)

Haha, you bet. Shipping is serious business. You are the captain hand-selecting your crew and if you don't choose wisely then you go down with your ship.You know, I forgot about those two. They are pretty adorable, huh? XP

Not too mention those Rival ships that are death-bent on sinking your ship :PYeah only ship I ever really even kinda liked in Bionicle was Takanuva/Gali, must a been because she was the only Toa I felt gave two kahoots about me/Takua back in MNOLG.

Im just going to say my opinion on this once and for all: the depiction or sight of male love, be it fictional or real life scenario; IT DISGUSTS ME

[Kaleidoscope Tekulo]

Hey guys, not for nothing, but can we just plain stop with this support/disagreement about relationships? There are loads of them out there outside of male love and female love (polygamy, asexuality, celibacy, heterosexuality. you name it). It's perfectly alright to disagree or support any of these. Those are your personal opinions and they are for you to decide and are never meant for anyone else to decide for you.But I will say this: It most certainly is not alright to just go about and throw your causes in these sorts of topics. We are merely supposed to discuss who you like together in the Bionicle story as toa. That's it. I've seen a good portion of topics get closed over things like this, and it's childish and just plain dumb. You guys should know better.Can we please go back to getting on topic now? 'Kay thanks.ANYWAY, I do know about those ships that are all about destroying your ships. XD I remember the whole Makorra fiasco in Avatar. XP Though, I'd say my biggest support is for Hahli and Jaller in terms of toa. They just have so much history and their team has been through a lot together. ^^

Kohatu. all the way.

[The 1st Shadow]

Matau and Nokama :PEither them, or Gali and Kopaka.And if I had to give a third option, Varian and Norik.

[Makuta Matata]

Jaller and Halhi.And Matau and Nokama.

Popaka. (Kohatu is for squares) Alternatively Tahu x Kopaka. ( yeaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhh ) Why else would they sneak around in SoS?

[Paleo]

Kohatu will forever be the best optimist/pessimist pair. They're best bros.They're also the first pair, so that makes it fabulously original.

Did Kiina really like Mata Nui that much? And yeah Hali and Matoro are good fit, I think ice and water go great together anyway. Fire will always be my favorite element, but why do the fire guys always end up with the girls it seems?EDIT: If Pewku became a Toa/Rahi hybrid that would be the greatest thing ever. But Pewku is secretly a great being, so... lol. Edited August 9, 2012 by Flex Nard

I'd say Kopaka and Tuyet. The only problem is that Tuyet was and is a violent sociopath. Not a very good point, but I stand by it.

Vakama and Nokama. Hands down. Nokama was the only one who cared for Vakama in their two main movies. In other words: treated him like he meant something. He's got a shot there.I'd love to see a Lhikan+sane Tuyet couple. Heck, maybe Toa Nidhiki+Tuyet.Really? Kohatu/Popaka?

First off, Nidhiki/Tuyet? Nidhiki/TUYET? NIDHIKI/TUYET?!?! ... Why is this the first I'm hearing of this? I LOVE it! Gosh, I'm so focused on shipping the heroes, I totally had villain blindspot this entire time. Also, In B3 Matau totally saved Vakama. He cares -sob- Though, I agree; Nokama and Vakama is a nice thought. Good luck tying their names together, though.

This topic has the potential to become... quite animated. :)I've never seen romance as being a "thing" in the MU, though MNOG did tease the shippers a bit with Jaller x Hahli and especially Hewkii x Macku. All four of them are Toa now (I'm including alternate universes here ), so those couples are the ones I'm going with.

Takua/Jaller/Pewku threesome . Although I guess Pewku isn't a Toa... yet...
