Considering the dark tone of my last wallpaper challenge and all the drama going on in my personal life, I’ve decided to come up with a challenge that was a little more upbeat. So after taking a couple of days to think about it, I came up with a challenge idea that appeals to the romantic in me. In the world of anime, there are couples that are not only characters to look cute together; they’re a force to be reckoned with. These are characters who bring out the best in one another and have a bond of love that’s strong enough to topple empires and slay demons. Alone these characters are simply powerful, but together they’re unstoppable. Here are some examples of what I’m talking about.

EXAMPLES

• Sailor Moon & Tuxedo Mask from Sailor Moon
• Kirito & Asuna from Sword Art Online
• Lacus Clyne & Kira Yamato from Mobile Suit Gundam SEED

For this challenge, I want everyone to do a wallpaper of an anime couple that could be considered a “power couple”. In other words, a pair of anime characters with a romantic bond that is so strong that it gives them the power to smite gods and devils and shatter the existing laws of the universe itself! Okay, maybe not that powerful, but you all get the idea.

RULES

• Site all sources (obviously).
• Tell me who these characters are and what anime they’re from (because I may not know).
• In the description, explain the reasons why you consider this anime couple to be a power couple.
• Each entry can only have one anime couple.
• Limit is one submission only.
• To show me that you actually read the rules, put “power couple” in the tags.

Other than that, you’re only limited by your own imagination, the standard rules of TheO, and what you can do with a computer. So be creative and have fun. As always, if anyone has any questions, please ask me in a comment or a PM and I’ll get back to you. I’m making this a two-month long challenge, so take your time but not too long.
