YYYYEESSS I agree, i am a shipper at heart (justlookatmynamelol) but its always the rarepairs i get attacthed too! I see why peeps wouldnt ship it but at the same time shiping isnt always about the legitmacticy its about bending rules and havin fun with it, and so many stories and art and good shit in general comes out of fandoms from this that it makes me really happy which is why im not afraid to admit to being a shipper realtionship wise too not just romantic! I fuckin loved and laughed my ass off when ruygi draged and ran off from goros fans and was a great moment anyways i dont wanna make this too long so sorry if i did but i just wanna preach this because YES! Thiers so much potential with this ship and i just AH

🔥 ryugoro

THE PERSONA 5 FANDOM SLEEPS ON THEIR POTENTIAL RELATIONSHIP AS A WHOLE BY JUST SAYING THEY BOTH HATE EACH OTHER

I don’t look at Ryugoro and think of it as an enemies to lovers ship. I look at it as a slow-burn friends to possibly lovers ship (Honestly if they were just shown to be FRIENDS I’d be happy because I like their potential dynamic).Because listen. Despite what the fandom may make one believe, Goro never openly says or hints that he dislikes Ryuji. It’s entirely one-sided on Ryuji’s side and even then, it’s a shallow dislike because all Ryuji has to go off of for not liking Goro is that Goro comes off as vain, spoiled, and an asshole for taking a stance against the Phantom Thieves. Aka, “You don’t like me and my friends? I don’t like you.”

BUT,

please notice the shift Ryuji makes after the engine room fight? Ryuji is the first person to reassure Goro that he is special, the first and only one to bang on the bunker door when Goro sacrifices himself. He’s also the one that excitedly starts offering to teach Goro the ropes on being a phantom thief at the beginning of Sae’s palace, ie: explaining why they use codenames, how they steal hearts, etc.

AND HONESTLY, Ryuji turning his thinking on Goro around after that fight? After Goro mentions his home life, his grades, his public image? Especially that bit with Goro’s mother dying, him being an unwanted bastard child, and Goro’s asshole father? If you think about it from Ryuji’s point of view with his own home life, I can see why Ryuji would suddenly start thinking differing of Goro in that moment (Can i also mention that Ryuji wasn’t there when Goro overshared about his mother dying in Leblanc, and would have no idea of knowing about it until the engine room fight anyway?)

I like writing the two of them as bonding over their shared complexes, Both wanting a place to belong, both being hurt by their fathers and loving their mothers, Ryuji sharing his mom with Goro and essentially getting him adopted into his family, Goro being comforted by Ryuji’s unbounded kindness but when Goro recovers from his own issues he can see the bigger picture and realize Ryuji acts purely in others’ interests, Goro teaching Ryuji it’s okay to be selfish and Ryuji has all the right in the world to be upset for himself, to be angry and to not bottle up all those repressed feelings he’s had since Kamoshida broke his leg. To actually tell Morgana or any of the other PT how he feels and how degrading the way they might speak to him is. They both tackle similar problems in different ways and they’re so similar and could work so well together, and it’s such a shame that their potential friendship is summed up as “They hate each other”.

So TLDR; Ryuji and Goro have a really good potential dynamic for friendship and for romance and a big chunk of the fandom ignores it or doesn’t bother to delve into it, seeing it as a shallow hate-hate relationship.
