When you ship a guy and a girl: "Eww. Why can't a guy and a girl be friends? They are besties, they are are like siblings."
When you ship a two dudes/chicks that have a close friendship and are like siblings or hate each other: "Yassss! The gays!"

im a vehement believer that denji and power were not siblings like everyone thinks they were.
makima is the one who thought power would be a sister to him, not the author himself. a lot of the panels where denji and power are in bed together/bathe together really imply something more than siblings without being sexual. they have this grey relationship that’s not entirely platonic or romantic. denji was obsessed with makima because of her manipulation and his desire to feel loved — he was shortsighted because of that.
in the scene where he sucks blood from power’s neck, power is very much enjoying their contact and wraps her legs around him. that does not scream “platonic siblings” to me. denji is not over the moon, popping a boner, and going insane while he’s over power. but he’s comfortable. he’s relaxed. he’s giving so much of his attention and love in order to take care of power. if anything, that seems much more romantic to me than any experience he’s had with other women.
in the scene where he’s waiting for reze, and power walks in instead, he’s disappointed. but the line right before she walks in is something along the lines of, ‘you’ll meet the right girl eventually.’ if that’s not foreshadowing, i don’t know what is.
when it comes to female/male relationships, people always label it as either romantic or platonic siblings. like? hello? those are not the only two options for female/male relationships?

I just wanted to say something it's ok, if you ship power and Denji or see there relationship as purely platonic. What is not ok is bashing people when they do. There are fictional characters at the end of the day I'm so sick and tired of this, fandom saying that you can't ship these two. like stop being assholes to each other and just let people be they're not hurting anybody. That is all I wanted to say.
