Hello! What are some other EEnE ships you like other then KevEdd - Gingi, Owner of the Daily KevEdd Blog

Ooooooooooh‼️‼️ I love a few other pairings, actually 🫣

Edd x Eddy

I actually really do like them. I can see why everyone else does too. I like the besties to lovers trope, not as much as enemies to lovers but they’re still cute. And, come on, who kisses their bestie THAT passionately without any underlying feelings? 10/10 besties fr.

Ed x May

Okay okay okay- I hear you. The Kankers are very controversial characters. I understand. I just have a soft spot for May because she’s my favorite Kanker sister. She seems like the sweetest sister with the biggest heart and she really does like Ed, even if she isn’t the best at showing it. 10/10 wholesome.

Rolf x Kevin

I literally don’t see enough of these two when it comes to shipping. Like I said with EddEddy, I like the besties to lovers trope and Rolf and Kevin have the credentials for said trope. Tell me Rolf didn’t have some feelings for Kevin at some point. 10/10 cuties fr.

Eddy x Plank

Listen, I don’t make the rules. 🙌 That Valentine’s Day special said PLENTY. 10/10 weirdly wholesome

BUT Nobody is better than the ORIGINAL 🫣❤️💚

No particular order here either - hit that shuffle and groove.

((I hope nothing bad happens to them))

I'M BACK HI!! TIM IS BACK TOO and now with his best and only friend Billie 

Billie is the kid of Eddy and Double D ( she's adopted ofc) and she's a menace to the society, Tim is naive,sweet and carefree of the duo while Billie is a smart little rascal that is always questioning everything. They'll be forever a duo...unless....

They decided to go to a night concert, you can decide which band

May is definitely more of a “cottagecore” type of person but she dresses this way for the concert. She helped Ed with his makeup. 😊

Hopefully I can draw more of these two soon, it was fun and it turned out really cute! If you have any request for EdMay/EddEddy drawings please ask in my ask box!

💚 ED x MAY 💛

скетчи уже старенькие, но я их всё равно очень люблю 👉🏻👈🏻

[owmylasagna-blog]

So, what's the real appeal in Ed/May? I see that this popular, but over all the show I see aproximately zero positive moments/development between them, including in the finale. Nothing positive, I can't think of anything that wasn't one-sided or outright negative. And I think Ed deserves faaar better than her; I don't see him just forgeting all she made and sudenly falling in love with her (fanfics where they're just dating out of nowhere specially irks me) without any explanation or development.

The appeal seems just ''pair the dumb/goofy ones'' (why not Ed/Nazz? Or Ed/Rolf? Or even Ed/Jonny?)

Honestly, I'm under the impression people only ship it as a Beta Couple for Edd/Eddy, and nothing else more. Your reasoning?

Wow I’m actually pretty glad I got this question because I’ve had a half baked post on this very subject that’s been sitting in my drafts for weeks. Now I have a reason to actually share it.

And from the jump, no I don’t ship Ed and May solely because I’m an eddeddy shipper. I actually see some interesting potential here! I also ship Ed wildly because he’s just a lover boi in my mind. Perhaps even most wildly out of the entire cast of the show: I have the receipts for dabbling in edrolf and ednazz but I can really only imagine those pairings as little flings.

So what is it about edmay that works?

Of the three Kanker sisters, May actually seems to be the only one to genuinely have a crush on her preferred Ed. It goes beyond the typical taunting and harassing her sisters subject the other Eds to. The intro to Hanky Panky Hullabaloo is a prime example of this: May makes a mushy valentine and Marie and Lee make fun of her for it. Afterwards the two talk about May behind her back: “Now we know who got mom’s genes.” “Hormones”. I think it's an interesting summary of how the sisters have differing perspectives on relationships and how they think about boys/men. While Marie and Lee are more disenchanted by romance, they see May as more naive and prone to getting emotionally attached in the same way their mom probably falls for one disappointing man after another. Anyway, the point is that I think May cares whether Ed reciprocates those feelings while Marie and Lee don’t with Eddy or Edd.

CUTE!

Now we have Ed’s reactions to May. In the earlier seasons, he doesn’t seem as averse to the Kanker harassment. Honestly sometimes he’s sort of enjoying it or just not bothered at all. I don’t think Ed generally would show his interests or feelings in a very typical way. Actually the most damning evidence that he might actually be attracted at all to May or just girls period are the moments where he is acting the most repulsed by them. We are talking about a 12 year old after all, probably a bit panicked by some new hormones and feelings about “icky girls”: to me, it reads as the early stages of immature boyish attraction.

I’d be remiss if I didn’t include at least one reference to the Ed-cyclopedia that is Kevin Lordi (as per usual), who got the scoop that the writers toyed with the idea of making Ed and May canon in the earlier seasons, even scraped S2 episode where they are caught kissing in the bushes being the basis for HPH (Lordi 2017, 2018).

So what is in this ship for them? I really like exploring this ship because of many of the parallels I see in their characters. I think it’s safe to say that Ed and May are respective outliers in their trios: May being the younger punching bag to her older sisters, Ed sort of being off on his own planet or plane of existence from Edd and Eddy most of the time. I could see both naturally branching out on their own while the remaining two are prone to buddying up. Other similarities, as you mention, also make them a cute pair: they are goofy, a bit ditzy, naturally kind hearted, a bit off beat, a tad (or a lot) gross. Nothing wrong with that!

Both come from pretty bleak home lives, lacking in support or parental nurturing. For this reason, you see them often compensating by being the nurturing types themselves: Ed being the protective big brother to Sarah and his two best pals, May often playing out a maternal fantasy (more than once she plays mommy and baby in the show; coddling Jimmy in BPS). Now just think of a relationship where these two get together!!! Having an outlet for compassion AND on the receiving end of it. I think they have the potential to have a very sweet relationship ripe for healing and personal growth.

I see them coming to appreciate each other with a bit of time and maturity, maybe striking up a friendship first before actually dating later in their teens or early adulthood. Oddly enough I make lots of parallels between Edd and May as well and could easily imagine some aspects of Edd and Ed’s friendship manifesting in edmay. The biggest factor being what I said about May having this maternal care-taker drive. Seeing as the Kanker sisters just about raised themselves and had to grow up really fast, you end up with a very “parentified” child. And if Edd isn’t the poster child for being a parentified kid I don’t know what… Anyway, in the same way that Edd acts as a stand-in parental figure to Ed I think May would quickly take on a similar role. I’m NOT endorsing this dynamic as 100% positive!!! I think it would be complicated! But it’s an interesting ship dynamic nonetheless and I’m trying to explore that in my aged up AU now.
