Kotesu/Tomoe T___T <3
I don't like Barnaby that much, but the series put them together in so many "destined-like" situations, it's imposible not seeing them shipped. And some of the official merchandise/art also contributes with the shipping.
If it comes to multishipping, I believe Ivan and Kotetsu would have a fierce competition there. Both of them have been shipped with almost everyone in the series.
As for my preferences, aside from Kotetsu/Tomoe, would be Kotetsu/Yuri. They are connected in some unfortunate and/or ironic way. Also, at the beggining of the production, they were planned to be a team before the arriving of Barnaby.
Hmm, other pairings I would like to see more are Karina/Barnaby and Ivan/PaoLin. I have problems with shipping someone like Antonio or even Nathan because there is not much background story to feel related to those characters. Something similar happened with Petrov, and then episode 16 was aired and boom, insta-connection. Saito also needs more love.
You know, it's really sad we don't see more fan stuff supporting Kotetsu/Tomoe considering they were actually married. No matter what, she will always be his FIRST love, and it should be around more than it is...
And I have a friend who loves Karina/Barnaby. She wrote a few fics for them. I'll link it to you if you want. Saito totally needs more love too
