You forgot the scene in Tokyo when Riko smiles at Yohane sleeping. That 2 seconds scene... before another ChikaRiko scene *cries* YohaRiko shippers, don't give up! T___T
Borqna Kamenova most of them just yohamaru and chikariko fans that can't stand their ships aren't the only one for certain girls, kind of sad. The same story was with NicoMaki, part of NicoMaki fans couldn't stand other Nico and Maki ships. This is why LL fandom is one of the most toxic fandoms :^)
I don't think its forced I like that ship and not sure if this is a popular opinion but I think the episode they have together is the best episode of the series.
UPDATE: At least in one of the chapters in the Anthology manga, YohaRiko had one (attempted) kiss scene. no, seriously . . . . . . . Also, anthologies are not canon to the franchise, but your opinions on whether the stories are "canon" due to being OFFICIALLY released by the publisher itself merely varies.
Who's ready to see C̶h̶i̶k̶a̶ ̶f̶i̶n̶a̶l̶l̶y̶ ̶g̶e̶t̶s̶ ̶c̶u̶c̶k̶e̶d̶ ̶b̶y̶ ̶Y̶o̶h̶a̶n̶e̶ ̶f̶o̶r̶ ̶r̶e̶a̶l̶ some YohaRiko in Sunshine's S2's latest Episode?
NOTE: If Maki does the Nico Nico Nii in the School Idol Movie as a final evidence to NicoMaki being confirmed, But will Riko do the Fallen Angel pose in the Sunshine movie as a proof that YohaRiko is real too?
There was literally 0 reason to ship these two in season 1. All i ever hear is in other love live sunshine material these two have a bond so it makes sense there to ship them. But they didn't have that in season 1 but it was forced on their anime counterparts.
Bad: ChikaRiko not being canon anymore because YohaRiko was popular Also bad: Booing YohaRiko on YohaRiko videos like this one because you're a bitter ChikaRiko fan who's sad it's not canon anymore because YohaRiko was popular Can we all just not?
FigureGunplaFan Not the entire fandom supports YohaRiko, you know. Of course YohaRiko shippers would approve since they ship it! I used to like YohaRiko, until it turned forced as hell.
And suddenly between seasons they somehow became fucking soulmates and one of the most popular ships in the fandom for no reason other than na episode about a dog and rushed development. I legitimately hate this ship.
People shipped this before season 2, they had interaction in season 1 aswell (if you check riko's wiki and scroll down to her activities for that one day she hung out with yoshiko even tho that was in season 1)
