I fully agree. This is a shounen manga, I think it's kinda contradictory for Kishi centering the attention on cheesy matters that belongs to the shoujo styled manga.
Anyways, it's fully understandeable having people talking about these things on the forums, but it's not valid for them taking manga panels as "proofs", because a single reason: This is a shounen manga, there "will not be" any panel that makes a explicit reference to romance, and by transitivity, that can be used as proof.
the only people who hate the pairing aspect/romance behind the manga are probably immature dweebs. some people prefer a little more mature content and not just hack and slash kiddie thing.
however the pairinig wars totally get out of hand i will def agree. Kishi adds just the right amount id say, but the people behind certain pairings (wont name any supporters, we know who they are) are complete ass trolls about it. its like their pairing or death to earth...which is also very immature.
And I fully disagree with people who makes generalization and can't respect others for their way of thinking.
