+ OTP for them.
+ Runner-up pairing.
+ Honorable mention(s).
+ Crack pairing(s).
+ Ship everyone else seems to like, but I don't. (alternately: ship I like that everyone else seems to hate)

Toji!

+ OTP for them.

Toji/Kensuke. Evangelion's bromatic pairing. Considering how effed up everyone's relationships are in that show, having a better than functional friendship is a pretty remarkable achievement. Their personalities play off each other well.

+ Runner-up pairing.

Toji/Hikari. Not in a "forever ever" thing, but I like them as a school age couple. I don't see them lasting forever but I think their relationship would have been healthy learning experience for them both. If not for, y'know, the whole maiming thing.

+ Honorable mention(s).

Toji/Asuka. I toyed with this in Taking Sights, but I don't honestly see it being likely. Asuka's all about father substitutes, and Toji doesn't even have Shinji's battlefield heroism to impress her. However... Toji would at least *kiss* her if he got the invitations, unlike Shinji. So they'd have an awesomely shallow physical relationship but it wouldn't last. So like Toji/Hikari, really.

+ Crack pairing(s).

Toji/Misato. Solely because of the Mrs. Robinson aspect.

+ Ship everyone else seems to like, but I don't. (alternately: ship I like that everyone else seems to hate)

Can't say I really have anything to go here for Toji.

Ahh, he is my favourite character in this fandom and I adore your explanations for these parings.
