This “What if Crossover Meeting” Meme originally belongs to MagicalKeyPizzaDan and is dedicated to all of the wonderful shippers of Superman x Wonder Woman, Ryu x Chun-Li, Ken x Cammy, Roy x Riza, Eric x Taylor, Inuyasha x Ayame, and Raymond x Alex as well as those entertained by the thought of Superman and Wonder Woman having their first rendezvous with their fellow power couples. Sit back, relax, and revel in how Superman’s and Wonder Woman’s encounter with Ryu, Chun-Li, Ken, Cammy, Roy, Riza, Eric, Taylor, Inuyasha, Ayame, Raymond, and Alex will fare. Sometimes living life as a power couple possessing omnipotent levels of superhuman strength, mercurial reflexes, and Herculean combat prowess is never an easy vocation, especially when extraterrestrial invaders, treacherous criminals, corrupt law officials, and unsavory monsters are rampant on a ritualistic basis. Just ask Kal-El of Krypton and Diana of Themiscyra or Superman and Wonder Woman. Even with them being members of the Justice League, having missions together, and still finding time to consummate their intimate feelings after a hard day’s work, it is never enough. Until Superman concocts the idea of creating their own legion of power couples. Wonder Woman believes this is a phenomenal idea, as many power couples in the world would be happy to work alongside Superman and her. Not wasting any time, the mythically powerful DC Superhero couple gets down to business and hosts a get-together in Themiscyra for the power couples who want to meet them in person. Both Superman and Wonder Woman could already tell that the rendezvous they organized would be a fruitful one. Outside the DC Universe, there has been no shortage of avid discourses revolving around Superman among Ryu Hoshi, Ken Masters, Colonel Roy Mustang, Commander Eric Myers, Inuyasha, and Raymond. They are not only aware of Superman’s popularity but also aspire to be just as benevolent, formidable, and courageous as he is. Ryu honors his magnificent might, while Ken praises his super strength, thus emulating Superman’s physical prowess and valor. Roy and Eric express interest in meeting Superman because they want to keep on challenging themselves as combatants and believe that their military training would be sufficiently suitable for his standards. Inuyasha is already excited at the prospect of having intense workout sessions and combat matches with Superman because of his continuous desire to remain a champion. Raymond, as starry-eyed and enthusiastic as ever, has always wanted to meet Superman in person because he looks up to him as an inspiration for his career as a bodybuilder and a gym instructor. All six men express joy at the thought of meeting Superman in person. It is not just the men who are excited about meeting Superman but also their wives, who are just as excited to meet Wonder Woman. All the discussions that Chun-Li, Cammy White, Lieutenant Riza Hawkeye, Lieutenant Taylor Earhardt, Ayame, and Alex engage in about Wonder Woman make them akin to excitable schoolgirls talking about the latest trends. Chun-Li finds Wonder Woman to be a majestic queen just as Cammy honors her unwavering courage, thus desiring to emulate Wonder Woman’s brand of warrior queen bravery. Riza and Taylor perceive Wonder Woman as a precious asset to their careers as military women because they want to learn traditional and more ancient ways of how to defend themselves against invaders and see how they can hold up in the modern world. Ayame is itching to engage in multiple physical training and sparring sessions with Wonder Woman to push her combat prowess to a much higher level. Alex is gleeful at the prospect of finally meeting Wonder Woman in person because that was one of her dreams as a little girl. All six women express bliss at meeting Wonder Woman. In terms of Superman and Wonder Woman as a couple, all six power couples even discuss how they look up to them as role models. Ryu and Chun-Li admire them for their fortitude. Ken and Cammy adore them for their formidability. Roy and Riza adulate them for their unwavering courage. Eric and Taylor worship them for their strong protective measures for innocent civilians. Inuyasha and Ayame end up having enthralling discussions about their combat prowess and their reputations as super-strong warriors. Raymond and Alex express delight at meeting them because they have been aspiring to be just as courageous, strong, and noble as they are ever since they were children. All six power couples even engage in all of the ways Superman and Wonder Woman have been using their collaborative powers to protect the universe from all types of enemies ranging from alien invaders to demonic entities. Amidst their discussions, letters arrive for the six power couples. They are from Superman and Wonder Woman to attend a get-together in Themiscyra. All six power couples head to Themiscyra for this exciting event. In Themiscyra, Superman and Wonder Woman are dressed to the nines in royal Ancient Greek attire that makes Superman almost akin to Zeus and Wonder Woman almost akin to Hera eagerly awaiting the arrival of their acquaintances. Ryu, Ken, Roy, Eric, Inuyasha, Raymond, Chun-Li, Cammy, Riza, Taylor, Ayame, and Alex arrive in Themiscyra already anticipating the moment they encounter the superhero couple. Superman and Wonder Woman greet the six couples with open arms, embraces, and positive vibes and show them around their marble palace home. All six power couples are amazed at Superman’s and Wonder Woman’s palace as if they stepped inside a cross between an Ancient Greek Museum and an illustrated Greek mythology book from the golden statues to the marble floors to the intricate designs. Since the six power couples must have felt fatigued from their trip to Themiscyra, Superman and Wonder Woman show them to their bath chambers and changing rooms to get freshened up. There are even Ancient Greek attire waiting for them to be dressed in and look just as fabulous in them. After the six power couples get freshened up and dressed up in their Ancient Greek attire, they…

This septet meme originally belongs to Alpha-Duelist35 and is dedicated to all of the wonderful shippers of Superman x Wonder Woman, Ryu x Chun-Li, Ken x Cammy, Roy x Riza, Eric x Taylor, Inuyasha x Ayame, and Raymond x Alex as well as those entertained by the thought of these seven power couples forming their own epic team. Sit back, relax, and revel in how marvelously these seven power couples can work exceedingly well together, not just look great together. What do you get when you make one superhero couple of epically mythical proportions, one focused brown-haired martial arts couple of Asian descent, one dynamic blond-haired martial arts couple of Western heritage, one state military couple brimming with excitingly belligerent sexual tension, one law enforcer couple capable of transforming into heroes in multicolored suits, one canine yokai warrior couple prepared to beat formidable opponents to a bloody pulp, and one glamorously gorgeous couple from Beverly Hills join forces? You get an exceptional legion of power couples who not only look amazing together but also prove themselves to be physically capable of protecting innocent civilians against oppressors and taking down ruthless opponents with every fiber of their being. All seven power couples embody peerless physical prowess, high levels of romantic intimacy, and great fighting spirit to make them the strong team that they are. Each of them also possesses individual fighting styles that define them as couples and as fighters using their strength to inspire people’s motivation and growth. Superman x Wonder Woman: Legendarily Dutiful Sovereigns To proclaim that Superman and Wonder Woman are the emperor and empress of power couples is a mere understatement. They can give the likes of Zeus and Hera, Odin and Frigg, and many other mighty ruler couples a huge run for their money. There is no doubt that Superman and Wonder Woman possess mythically abundant amounts of super strength, rapid reflexes, and godly amounts of endurance, especially when Superman’s muscles of steel work flawlessly with Wonder Woman’s fierce athletic prowess. However, their collective fortitude, might, power, and Herculean prowess are used to protect innocent civilians from harm and demolish any evil oppressor who dares to abuse their power. Given that both Superman and Wonder Woman or Kal-El aka Clark and Diana have mythical combat prowess firmly rooted in old-school Western civilization, their fighting style is a fascinating mixture of Pankration, Ancient Greek Wrestling, and Ancient Greek Boxing. They can throw any punch, arm bar, shoulder lock, leg lock, choke, throw, and takedown to their hearts’ desire and triumph over their enemies in style. Ryu x Chun-Li: Honorably Conducted Warriors Living by the codes of the ancient dragons are Ryu Hoshi from Japan and Chun-Li from China. Ryu and Chun-Li can put both Japan’s and China’s emperors, empresses, and prime ministers to shame because of how deeply and thoroughly they stick to their unadulterated sense of honor as martial artists and beacons of enlightenment. Ryu’s unquestionable sense of duty to his craft as a martial artist serves as a welcome canvas for Chun-Li to implement her expertise as a law-abiding police officer by prioritizing on protection of families, duty to civilians, and justice for all. Therefore, both Ryu and Chun-Li implement their combat prowess and duty as martial artists to put people’s safety as a number one priority. Ryu’s and Chun-Li’s Ansatsuken have their respective roots in established martial arts. Ryu has the primarily hard styles of Shotokan Karate, Kyokushin Karate, Judo, and Kenpo, while Chun-Li has both the hard and soft styles found in Shaolin Kung Fu, Sanda, Tai Chi, and Wushu. Together, Ryu and Chun-Li propel their hard and soft attacks to bring balance and evenness to their techniques. Ken x Cammy: Relentlessly Fierce Challengers Rocking a Transatlantic sense of spicy intimacy and unconditional romance all while kicking loads of butt and taking names are Ken Masters from the United States of America and Cammy White from England in the United Kingdom. The golden sunshine of the hair may radiate brilliantly like the shining sun. Their azure blue eyes may denote calmness before the storm. However, their external beauty is only complemented by their all-encompassing fighting prowess, combining Ken’s fierily rampaging takedowns, grapples, and blows and Cammy’s acrobatically mobile strikes, punches, and kicks. Neither Ken nor Cammy stops at nothing to grow as combatants. More importantly, both Ken and Cammy challenge each other to improve in character and demonstrate resilience in the face of adversity. This necessity for a challenge is also reflected in their Ansatsuken. Ken’s chiefly hard style of Shotokan Karate, Kyokushin Karate, Judo, and Kenpo is well-combined with Cammy’s brutally effective style of British All-In Fighting, Kickboxing, Hapkido, and Jujutsu to make their opponents surrender in terror. Roy x Riza: Militaristically Calculating Lieutenants When fire and steel merge and meld, it can only mean one thing. Colonel Roy Mustang and Lieutenant Riza Hawkeye are on the job to ensure that safety, justice, order, progress, tradition, duty, and good direction remain top of mind in their careers as militants. Criminals, looters, marauders, and pillagers shall be robbed of sleep and peace once Roy and Riza arrive to arrest and eradicate them, especially for crimes far too inhumane to comprehend. Roy’s and Riza’s high status as a militaristic power couple does not just stop them from doing their duties the best way they can. It also illustrates how Roy’s dichotomy of impassioned charisma and cool charm can beautifully blend with Riza’s collected intellect and analytical intuitiveness. They also challenge each other as leaders because they know that there is a lot of promise and growth that they can give to each other and themselves. Roy’s and Riza’s military expertise also means that they combine Krav Maga, Marine Corps Martial Arts, Defendu, Combat Sambo, and Jieitaikakutojutsu to overpower invaders and ensure a powerful fleet of honorable defenders. Eric x Taylor: Commandingly Robust Captains The bloody red fangs of the Quantasaurus Rex Zord and the shining yellow wings of the Wild Force Eagle Zord clash…
This screenshot motivational poster is in high favor of Superman x Wonder Woman from Justice League, Ryu Hoshi x Chun-Li from Street Fighter, Ken Masters x Cammy White from Street Fighter, Roy Mustang x Riza Hawkeye from Fullmetal Alchemist, Eric Myers x Taylor Earhardt from Power Rangers, Inuyasha x Ayame from Inuyasha, and Raymond x Alex from Totally Spies. This is also dedicated to everybody who desires these seven couples as their OTPs for life as much as I do. Sit back, relax, and revel in SuperWonder’s authoritative might, RyuLi’s focused determination, Kenammy’s fiery willpower, RoyAi’s unrelenting loyalty, Quantum Eagle’s resilient toughness, InuAya’s magnificent strength, and Raylex’s gorgeous synergy. Nothing excites me more than embracing my seven favorite fictional couples I consider to be battle-power couples. Their formidability, fortitude, fierceness, strength, combat prowess, might, and potency have always made me enthralled from my head to my heart to my soul. It should be no surprise that I have been shipping these couples ever since I was in my tween years while discovering several attributes that made each power couple superb in my eyes in latent, overt, and/or surprising ways. From the childhood delight of pairing Superman and Wonder Woman as a couple to my further appreciation for Raymond and Alex as a gorgeously lovely couple, there was nothing that could separate me from these seven power couples that I cherish the most. Even when some people discourage me by proclaiming that some of these power couples are not canon and will never happen, I do not bother with them and make them stew in their self-loathing, fun-sucking ways because I take pride in going against the grain. Now, it is time for me to sing my praises and high esteem for these seven mighty power couples. Superman and Wonder Woman aka Clark Kent and Diana Prince aka Kal-El of Krypton and Diana of Themyscira are the power couple to end all power couples. This is not just attributed that they are DC Comics’ beacons for mythically grand heroism. This also extends to them not just looking phenomenal either. Both Superman and Wonder Woman represent authority, duty, and reverence that need to be earned by protecting civilians from oppression and cruelty as well as being pillared anchors of super strength for the Justice League. While some people in the DC fandom may find SuperWonder to be a rather bland couple, given how incredibly invincible both superheroes are and how similar they are to a fault, I have always cherished Superman and Wonder Woman for their mythical authority and sheer might in saving the world from destruction. I even envision Superman x Wonder Woman giving Wagner’s Tristan and Isolde a run for their money because their indestructibility and regal power make them worthier of aspiration and adulation. Therefore, Superman and Wonder Woman are deserving of reverence. Ryu Hoshi and Chun-Li are what occurs when the unbreakable focus in the martial arts and sheer determination to grow as combatants and as people entwine. Ryu’s and Chun-Li’s focus and determination as martial artists and as individuals are the hallmarks of what make them infallible, especially when they are together inside and outside combat situations. Neither of them will rest until they not only fully commit to their lives as warriors but also do their part in ensuring that justice and peace prevail for the people they care about. Should criminals, looters, and marauders pillage Ryu’s and Chun-Li’s happily blessed home, they would unleash every punch, kick, takedown, grapple, and power-up from their arsenal to make them pay for what they have done in droves. From the very first moments that I stumbled upon the Street Fighter franchise as a child growing up in the 1990s, Ryu x Chun-Li was the first couple I ever shipped. Back then as a child, I could not fathom why. However, now as an adult, what I can see in Ryu and Chun-Li is respect, allegiance, loyalty, and support for each other as a superb martial arts couple. Ken Masters and Cammy White are striking up the band when it comes to challenging each other to grow in fortitude and perseverance while also possessing tenderly intimate moments as a power couple. The golden sunshine of their blond hair and sparkling blue eyes may reflect Ken’s and Cammy’s conventionally Western aesthetics in contrast to Ryu’s and Chun-Li’s brunette hair and predominantly Asian features. All looks aside, Ken and Cammy demonstrate exuberance, fearlessness, and fieriness in embracing every challenge they encounter together. Moreover, Ken’s muscularly hot-blooded virility excitingly compliments Cammy’s icily steely determination to the point where they can hold their own both individually and as a couple. Their traits also work in their favor when pummeling criminals and terrorists, considering how Ken’s brutal strikes and takedowns work beautifully with Cammy’s quickly-paced strikes. I have also been a hardcore shipper of Ken x Cammy ever since I was a child, and I continue to cherish them as a couple because they can challenge each other to improve as people. Roy Mustang and Riza Hawkeye command full respect, allegiance, loyalty, nobility, and courage in the face of all adversity and strife with electrifying flair. Once again, Roy’s hot-bloodedly virile fire compliments Riza’s icily cool quicksilver bullets in a frenzy that involves lethal edge and taking no prisoners. Felons and legitimate war criminals would easily tremble at the severe and quick punishments that Roy and Riza can deliver with effortless fatality. Superiors and followers alike discover multiple upon multiple facets that make Roy and Riza worthy of emulation and adoration, thanks to their commanding formidability, pristine decorum, and valorous courage amidst pain, adversity, strife, and trouble. When everything is silent and all the chaos is mildened, Roy and Riza would engage in spicy yet subtle sexual tension in their well-furnished chambers. During my late-tween to early teen years of watching Fullmetal Alchemist, I have always been a partisan of Roy x Riza aka RoyAi. The belligerent sexual tension, the trust, and the allegiance…
Happy New Year, everybody. Antoni here. The year of Our Lord 2023 is fast approaching its end. Therefore, it is time for me to feature the pieces of work that I have enjoyed doing since this year. Yes, I know my fanart uploading has been a bit slower and fewer this year. This is because I have been producing more online reviews on my YouTube channel, which I am happy to say that I have now reached 1,930 subscribers, dealing with my three semesters going on four semesters as a Master’s in American Studies student attaining A’s and B’s on my transcript of records thus far and enjoying every discourse I have been sinking my teeth into, and doing everything I can to keep everything together in my university, YouTube, DeviantArt, and writing life. Furthermore, it has been four years since I have last traveled abroad, as I have been spending Christmas and New Year in Sydney, Australia, where I have been spending time with my outstandingly wonderful host family and witnessing everything I needed and wanted to witness thus far. This is especially true considering all the insanity I dealt with in graduating with honors/distinction in my Bachelor’s in English and Musicology and doing everything to improve greatly in my current Master’s in American Studies tenure. Nevertheless, everything I have been dealing with in this year has been fruitful, productive, and brilliant. I never regretted anything. I have been blessed thanks to my father, my mother, my younger siblings, all my relatives, all my friends, all my colleagues, and every actor, voice actor, singer, musician, artist, online reviewer, writer, online content creator, and academic I have constantly considered as my role model. With that said, let’s get cracking with my favorite pieces of work from each month. January: Octagon Ice and Olympic Fire 2023 started off with a bang, as Sesshoumaru and Inuyasha aka the Inu Brothers took center stage. My anime martial arts AU headcanon was strong in this one, considering that Sesshoumaru and Inuyasha are the bedrocks of their martial arts team, The Splendid Seven. I wanted to capture the dichotomy of Sesshoumaru’s deadly prowess in Mixed Martial Arts and Inuyasha’s rampaging brutality in Pankration because of how relatively similar yet utterly different their main martial arts are. Sesshoumaru’s element of ice means that he can abide by octagonal cage regulations, uphold the martial arts code with all his being, and give his opponents the ground-and-pounds and Kimuras they deserve, while never giving in to rowdy obnoxiousness featured in the UFC reality television show. Inuyasha’s element of fire means that he can do anything and everything he wants in the Spartan arena from torture racks to double axe handles all while making his muscular virility an offering to Zeus and all the Olympian gods. Put these two dog Yokai brothers together, and they are ruthlessly invincible. February: Olympic Champion Power Couple Now, it is time to feature the first work containing my most beloved one true pairing of all time Inuyasha x Ayame. It clearly shows that my loyalty to my OTP knows no bounds and will always inspire me to create more InuAya fanart, let alone fan-related content. Nobody can slaughter, mash, and cream the competition like Inuyasha and Ayame can. With Inuyasha’s powerfully muscular brutality in Pankration and Ayame’s furiously fierce velocity in Kyuk Too Ki or Korean Kickboxing, no opponent can ever bring them down even if they tried. As Inuyasha’s background in Ancient Greek Wrestling, Ancient Greek Boxing, Ssireum, Combat Sambo, Vale Tudo, and Kapu Kuialua makes him a mighty Pankratiast and Ayame’s skills in Muay Thai, Dutch Kickboxing, Japanese Kickboxing, Muay Lerdrit, Bokator, and Muay Chaiya have made them gain a reputation for being powerful opponents, it is easy to see why competitors would not dare mess with this power couple. Inuyasha and Ayame have the physical might and the spicy intimacy to prove that they can conquer anyone who crosses their path. March: The Seven Scintillating Sirens Coinciding with my anime martial arts AU headcanon was me celebrating International Women’s Day the only way I knew how. I featured Rosé Thomas, Rose Anderson, Winry Rockbell, Megumi Minami, Maya Orihara, Solty Revant, and Kaoru Ichinose working together as a septet of spectacular soul sisters possessing all the punches, kicks, elbow strikes, knee strikes, shin strikes, grapples, and takedowns to their hearts’ desire. Given that I have been watching Karate Combat for nearly one or two years on YouTube and have been playing Tekken and Street Fighter when I was a child, I gave the Queens of Scintillating Strikes various Korean hybrid martial arts. Rosé Thomas had Yongmudo. Rose Anderson had Gongkwon Yusul. Winry Rockbell had Kuk Sool Won. Megumi Minami had Hwa Rang Do. May Orihara had Tang Soo Do. Solty Revant had Kong Soo Do. Kaoru Ichinose had Soo Bakh Do. Whether these ladies threw uppercuts, spinning back kicks, axe kicks, elbow strikes, knee strikes, chokeholds, or jointlocks, they combine elegant beauty with ferocious beastliness in their attacks. Outside their penchant for unleashing tornadoes of furious attacks on their opponents, they also love the finer things in life from art to music and are also fiercely protective of children. April: Bulging Biceps are what a Warrior Queen Loves Inuyasha x Ayame as a super strong and splendidly sexy power couple strike again for the second time. This was reasonable because it was InuAya Month 2023, which went rather sporadically because of the continuous growth of my YouTube content and starting the summer semester in my university among other real-life obligations. Yes, I was pleased to have done group shots of Inuyasha’s and Ayame’s fourteen children consisting of seven sons and seven daughters, at least where the two sets of triplets and three sets of twins are concerned, but nothing beats Inuyasha and Ayame as the mighty power couple and equally mightier parents they are intended to be. Furthermore, Inuyasha’s mightily magnificent muscles and Ayame’s fearlessly fabulous fierceness always compliment each other…
