Hee, Kenpachi is a law unto himself. XD And two of the reasons that Yachiru works for me is that she was established in that relationship with him before he became a captain, and that I love seeing non-romantic parent/child and brother/sister relationships in manga.

I tell you, searching for Kenpachi-Yachiru doujinshi in Japan was hard. We couldn't look inside them, only at the covers, so I had to judge whether someone was depicting them as parent/child [good] or lovers [BAD. VERY VERY BAD.] by the covers. I rejected anything that had drawn Yachiru in a way that looked like it might be sexualized, and managed to escape getting anything that would traumatize me.*


* In that relationship, I might add. I did manage to pick up other manga that traumatized me in other ways. Some of which I shall scan and share when the box gets here, because I MUST SHARE THE PAIN.
