I really do enjoy the sweeter romance between Ryo and Miki in Violence Jack but I have to admit I have a guilty pleasure of thinking up how that ship would go in the normal Devilman plot and well, you know that I have different version of it (same for all my ships too btw) and while Ryo was so hostile towards Miki in the Devilman: The Birth OVA I can't help but like shipping them as a rivals to lovers/enemies to lovers ship, like the hate sex between would be insane! XD But maybe these two would come to have more friendlier feelings towards each other as time goes on and they bond over their shared love of Akira, and maybe Akira knocking some sense into these two while he forms a relationship with them both. However before that I can imagine Ryo and Miki just being so much denial of any growing feelings they have for each other and despairing at first when they admit to themselves that they had fallen in love.
I also was making up a playlist for specify this version of this pairing and needed a cover and I had been wanting to try out making a picture with a style closer to the 87-90s OVAs and doing a more simple cell shading style too, and I'm happy how this came out :D
