Here are the sketches I made for the DRV3 Valentine’s Day Collab. Special thanks to Phobos @metal-queer-rex for this fun event.

it was a pre-release ship! specifically i think the japanese fanbase thought they looked really good together so they shipped them before the game came out. (oumeno iirc also has this history.) post-release people still like it because amami is mild-mannered and patient and so people think he could “deal with” tenko, or like… convince her not all men are bad i guess.

(i’m really not a fan of the ship or how it’s portrayed commonly nor do i think tenko needs to be fixed in any way but… that’s the rationale i see)

When did the fandom start shipping Rantaro and Tenko?

I'm not saying I do, but I'm asking when in this series' history did fans think that it was a good idea to ship Rantaro and Tenko? Like, was it right after NDRV3 came out in 2017, or was it years later?
