This has probably come up in the past, but I didn't want to necro an old thread.
I am curious as to the fanbase's opinions and interpretations of the Naru and Nephrite relationship. For me, it's hard to nail down. For one thing, Nephrite is a being from the Dark Kingdom (Originally from the Moon Kindom, along with the other three Kings and Beryl, before they were corrupted by Metalia). From that standpoint alone, ANY human is too young for him as he's potentially thousands of years old. On the other hand, he'd never experienced love at all. It isn't too surprising that he felt something for the one that opened his eyes. The question remains, however, was he truly in love with her, or did he just have a special bond and fondness for her because of her actions? Was it protective or romantic? What do you think about this?
