Mata Nui x everyone in the Matoran Universe.
Maybe I’m misremembering but I thought this wasn’t a very healthy relationship
Overwhelmingly neglectful until the consequences hit
He took on her look as a Toa, even.
edit: How did my autocorrect manage to do Tahu instead of Toa?
And yes, Lewa is kissing the krana, but it’s okay because they’re not holding hands.
Vhisola x Nokama
Makuta and small chunk of Aqua Magna
Mata Nui x Ignika
he loved it so much he went inside it forever
Kratakana x Takanuva, since everyone likes getting visions from a slug on their face.
Krahka and Onewa. (He loved her so much he killed the Kahgarak that sent her to the Zone of Darkness)
I’m lost for words that this topic is still ticking along.
honestly same here
Me too.
Meaning of this topic is not clear-cut. Some people in this topic seem understand couple in romantic manner. Other seem to understand it as just a set of two connected/contrasting characters. I am of the second interpretation for purposes of my list.
Bionicle had lot of prominent couples/duos/sets-of-two-characters, from Mata Nui and Makuta, through Sidorak and Roodaka to Vezon and Kardas. I will rank my favorites. It is possible that I forgot some good ones.
Opposing Couples
-
Mata Nui and Makuta
These two were originally depicted as brothers, one good, other evil. This depiction is best in MNOLG dialogue between Toa and Makuta, where Makuta is depicted as equal and opposite of Mata Nui, destruction to Mata Nui’s creation. -
Sidorak and Roodaka
Unlike some duos in BIONICLE, Sidorak and Roodaka are supposedly allied. In truth, Viceroy Roodaka wants to depose the King of Visorak, fact which is Sidorak utterly unaware of. Scheming Roodaka contrasts utterly oblivious Sidorak well. -
Lhikan and Nidhiki
One being the last remaining Toa Mangai and noble hero, other the traitor to the team who betrayed them to Dark Hunters to become famous and was mutated into hideous spider. Even color schemes are contrasting: Red and Gold against Green and Silver. -
Nidhiki and Krekka
Two dark hunters that are paired together, but Nidhiki hates Krekka with a passion. Also Krekka’s stupidity and imposing stature contrast with cunning and agile Nidhiki. -
Helryx and Tuyet
Both of these are pragmatic Toa of Water. But while Helryx pursues good, Tuyet extreme ends-justify-means mentality combines with egomania to make her an evil fanatic. -
Artaka and Karzani
Artaka is the most skilled craftsman in the universe. Karzani is one of the worst healers/surgeons in the universe. This lack of skill combined with lack of strong will to make Karzani into BIONICLE-equivalent of a mad scientist, while Artaka’s firm conviction on good ensured that he remained good and did not fall like the Makuta. -
Axonn and Brutaka
One with sword, other with axe. One colored gold and blue, other colored silver and red. One having abandoned his mission, other remaining faithful to it. Axonn and Brutaka compliment each other really well.
Supporting Couples
-
Takua and Puku
Greatest couple of friends in BIONICLE in my opinion is Takua and his crab. Takua having a crab is cute, and her growing into a giant crab to accompany Takua on his quest for the Seventh Toa is awesome. -
Maku and Huki
Whether they are in love or good friends, relationship between Maku and Huki is really heartwarming. -
Jaller and Hahnah
I know little about Hahnah, but he is really cute and scary at same time. -
Vezon and Kardas
The Mad Piraka Vezon has a terrifying giant spider as mount, which later turns into an even more giant dragon with scary shark jaws. That is really cool. -
Nuju and Matoro
Nuju speaks in language of Rahi. For this reason, he keeps Matoro as translator. Matoro is one of the only Mata Nui Matoran to know the truth, along with Ahkmou. I find this dynamic very interesting. -
Makuta and Ahkmou
Makuta of Metru Nui’s original plan was to trick Matoran into honoring him as savior. While this plan failed, Makuta did succeed in one case, Ahkmou. Manipulating him by claiming he was destined to be Toa Metru of Stone, Ahkmou became Makuta’s tool on Mata Nui. -
Dume and Nivawk
When Makuta pretends to be Dume, he adopts a smart bird to spy on Matoran. Makuta being Makuta, he later absorbs his pet. Nivawk also acts as a hint that something is wrong with Dume before the truth is revealed.
Matoro X Death
i’d just like to make light of the fact that this is my most viewed topic ever
its got like 1.5k views
Greg x MU. Only Greg is in the position of a god, having given meaning to all characters in the line.
Love isn’t canon
But totally Vakama and Nokama, 2004 is the best Bionicle year and they’re the two best characters.
This is profane
Yep it is quite hilarious
And somehow I ended up participating here, despite knowing that love is non-canon (but that doesn’t explain Sahmad).
Romantic love exists in Spherus Magnan society; “Love Isn’t Canon” only applies to the Matoran Universe portion of the story.
Matau’s heart was torn out and left bleeding on the curb as he saw this unfold in front of his very eyes.
