I think it's funny how Shin and Shuu are frequently the most overlooked characters insofar as individuals and a ship in both JP and (broadly western but primarily) NA fandom because these two:
Have the single best developed relationship of anyone in the entire show.
When we start off, and for much of the first half of the show, they're frequently at odds with Shin siding more with Seiji and Shuu partnering up with Touma - with whom he was originally longtime friends with in earlier drafts, up to and including arriving in Shinjuku together.
However, as the show continues, there are hints of a budding friendship, particularly the disastrous battle against Arago where Shin is the first to fall, Shuu being the one to immediately react and strike in vengeance after Shin and Touma get nommed.
And then of course, as we move into the second half of the show, we get this moment:
Cementing that yes indeed, these two are Best Pals For Life, with a bit of mutual chirping involved.
While unfortunately they both spend much of the next dozen-odd episodes sidelined and with little chance to interact outside of being strung up in a gargoyle together, after the team fully reunites, we're treated to them back to their old tricks, with teasing:
Followed immediately by a Bro Moment.
Cut to post series with the first OVA, Gaiden, at Ryo's birthday party:
(Absolutely nothing suggestive going on here)
And of course, OVA 2, Kikoutei Densetsu gives us the beautiful bonding moment that is Shin teaching Shuu how to surf.
Of course this being KD, things go downhill quickly, though things are patched up soon enough...
Only to fall apart by Message, where the distance that's grown between the Troopers is best exemplified by this shot:
The best of friends, arriving together, after not having seen each other for months, in complete, solemn silence. And unfortunately this is the last they really get together before returning for the finale.
However, I hope that this tangent has been educational, and if you haven't watched YST yet:
Do it for them.

Art, fic, cosplay photos, crafts - it's all welcome!
For the most part, canon characters and non-crossovers are preferred; I might have slides for crossovers and OCs if I get enough of them, but it's not guaranteed.

Yoroiden Samurai Troopers - Samurais Místicos do Japão Moderno
Samurai Warriors, conhecido nos EUA como Ronin Warriors, e no Japão pelo título original “Yoroiden Samurai Troopers”, é uma série de anime japonesa criada por Hajime Yatate e animada por Sunrise. A série de televisão, co-produzida pela Nagoya TV, foi ao ar em todo o Japão na All-Nippon News Network de 30 de abril de 1988 a 4 de março de 1989, com um total de 39 episódios. Uma adaptação de mangá foi serializada no Comic BomBom da Kodansha de 17 de novembro de 1988 a 5 de abril de 1990 e os capítulos coletados em 2 volumes tankōbon. Há mil anos atrás, Scorpio(Arago) invadiu o mundo humano e, a fim de escravizar toda a humanidade. No entanto, ele foi derrotado pela Armadura do Sol, Hariel, e a deusa do Sol, Amaterasu. Seiscentos anos depois, em meio a guerra civil japonesa, os portões do mundo inferior surgem em nosso mundo, e mais uma vez Scorpio tenta dominar para si o mundo. Mais uma vez ele falha, tendo sido derrotado pelo Monge, o qual prende o vilão em uma dimensão mais uma vez. Porém a armadura negra de Scorpio permaneceu no mundo humano, e preocupado com o fato de Scorpio pudesse voltar através dela, Monge resolve enterrá-la e a divide em 9 armaduras. Cada uma dessas armaduras está ligada à natureza da virtude humana, com elementos e estações e ao código Bushido dos samurais. Tais armaduras são espalhadas pelo mundo. Alguns homens encontram essas armaduras e se empossam delas, por seus espíritos regerem a virtude da qual a armadura está ligada. Porém aos poucos Scorpio foi atraindo para o lado dele 4 portadores das armaduras criadas por Monge. As outras 5 armaduras sagradas e lendárias são encontradas por 5 jovens espirituosos, que recebem orientações de Monge sobre a missão que viriam a enfrentar em breve, em uma luta que decidiria o destino da Terra...

Alright so here's the thing. I don't own a lot in the way of super valuable or rare merchandise, but what I do have is a very particular doujinshi crossover of a very particular pair of shows.
Problem 1: I have *never* seen this doujin before or since, I could not even tell you who created it.
Problem 2: *Because* of its rarity, I'm constantly torn between preserving it as-is, or dissecting it and scanning it for the greater YST and PGSM communities to enjoy a piece of shared history.
Help me out folks.
