I personally believe that there was a pretty likely Inaho x Seylum ship going on. It was highly implicative that it could happen, though it didn't. If she hadn't been shot in the first season and been absent through most of the second, I assure you that it would have developed there at some point.

But at the same time, I can't help but feel like the series is trying it's best not to stray in that direction. Like it's just leaving the fans to create and support their own ships and not shoot any down. After all, it's only shown in the series that the characters care deeply for one another ando nothing more. Extending to romance is unknown in the entire storyline.

Personally speaking, I would have liked the Inaho x Seylum ship going canon simply because Inaho is so emotionally detached and almost uncaring tosome degree. His attitude makes me want to see how he would be if he were lovey-dovey with ANYone, really. But I also liked the Inaho x Seylum ship since it was implied to a debatable extent.

Slaine is the only other real competitor for Asseylum, to be honest. Any other guy character is just a ship that fans make. Slaine, in the first few parts, had a heavy chance of being the romantic rival against Inaho. He had a history with Seylum and had spent much longer with her on Mars. I was even remaining open-minded and wondering if Seylum would have gone with him somehow even after his conversion into an antagonist. But when he started dong eveything Seylum didn't want, what with Interplanetary War II and all that jazz, he lost his chance.

So, yeah. No real guy to end up with. But now that the series has ended, you can bet your asses that the fanfics are gonna fly. I might write an Inaho x Seylum one myself. :D
