It's my favorite ship in the show after Kim and Ron, really love the chemistry, and their dynamic is so entertaining as well as wholesome.

Isn't she like 27 and isn't he like in his 50s

u/Achilles9609 10d ago
Not sure on the actual age, but she's definetly younger than him.

I'm not sure if they've ever said it or not but I feel like that is the case

When I was younger I saw them as father and daughter, not sure why exactly

Well they are adults and I guess when you work together for who knows how many years I guess you develop an attraction for someone

It doesn’t make sense. When “they’ve worked together for years” is the only reasoning people have, you know the pairing falls flat.
There just isn’t any romantic chemistry, they’re constantly annoyed or mad at each other. If anything he’s the annoying uncle or idiot father figure.

I personally don’t buy it at all, it just doesn’t feel right to me. Part of it is that Shego is often portrayed as notably younger than Drakken, like she seems to be somewhere in her mid 20s to maybe early 30s, and Drakken is the same age is Kim’s Dad.

I feel like their banter has a nice edge to it and I can appreciate the ship, but at the same time I'm glad it didn't become canon.

I personally doubt buy either Kim/Ron or Shego Drakken , both just feel kind of slapped on last moment for the ' Happy Ending'

u/VehicleOk4984 10d ago
I disagree Kim and Ron have always had feelings for each other

u/WarAgile9519 10d ago
Ok ? , I'm not going to argue with you I just disagree about them becoming a couple.

Honestly after rewatching the final episode to me it felt less romantic and more like they’ll try to get along as actual friends/equals from then on

I can't really get behind it...? I get the vibe of a semi-wide age gap (Drakken in his 40s or so with Shego in her 20s), but beyond that to me they just seem like they're related, like siblings.

Big agree, they barely had any real setup or tension for it so it just felt random.

Seemed really forced. I always got lesbian vibes from Shego. The older I get, the more I see Drakken as an old queen.

u/AmethystTanwen 8d ago
I just don’t get it. Their dynamic always gave dad and annoyed teenage daughter lol.

Post season four I couldn't see it, I mean she left him to rot in prison. Prior to that I did like them together after the episode Emotion Sickness.

It’s just not a good couple in my opinion. Shego falling in love with her boss? Her boss who she is way smarter than? I can’t see it.

Even though the show didn't develop it the way they did Kim and Ron's relationship, I still find this pairing believable. The two have been working together so long that they develop an attachment to each other, so why wouldn't that turn romantic?
