History Main / BattleCouple

* Silverbolt and Blackarachnia in ''BeastWars/[[BeastMachines Machines]]''. Obsidian and Strika are a possible villainous version.

* Shoka and Taizu in [[CJCherryh C.J. Cherryh]]'s ''ThePaladin''.

** "101 Dalmatians": [[PapaWolf Pongo]] [[BattleCouple teams up]] with [[MamaBear Purdy]] in 101 Dalmatians to lay the hurting on the two thugs about kill not only their puppies but a all 99 puppies. Their treatment of the bad guys is [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZBgShR_8CG8 SCARY]]. You do not mess with puppies and let their parents find out. It is clear these dogs will go though hell and back to save their puppies, all 15 of them.

* In MetalGearSolid 4 [[spoiler:Johnny]] eventually manages to win [[spoiler:Meryl's]] heart, by saving live [[spoiler:her]] on not one but three occasions. In a scene that [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QofhJhJGBjw&feature=related has to be seen to be believed]], they hold a door against seeming endless waves of attackers while sliping new magazines into each others guns, and proposing each other for marriage.

* ''{{Fans}}'' gives us Will and Shanna, and(in the Badass Threesome category), Rikk, Rumy and Ally.

--'''Rikk''': I've spent the last five years with two remarkable women. One of them is one of the toughest, cleverest fighters I've seen anywhere. [[BaitAndSwitchComparison The other is Rumiko Tanaka Oberf!]]

* Not sure if this counts since they're not actually a couple, but to some shippers, Juliet and Lassie of ''{{Psych}}''

'''Han:''' I love you.\\
'''Leia:''' I know.

* In ancient Greece, the Spartan military encouraged romance between its soldiers in part because they believed that it would motivate them to fight harder.

* On occasion, [[XenaWarriorPrincess Xena and Ares]] fit this trope. As do Xena and Gabrielle, if you like that sort of thing (* ahem* )

* Church and Tex from RedvsBlue could qualify. It's pretty clear they both still have feelings for each other no matter how many insults they toss back and forth. Probably more feelings from Church than Tex as her emotions seems to have taken a beating during her time as a Freelancer paired with a psychotic AxeCrazy AI.

* Kiri and Elraine in ''DoubleArts''. They even developed the [[TitleDrop titular]] ''Double Arts'' fighting style to fight while constantly connected. They are the official couple of their series and will never let go of each other. No matter what. [[spoiler:Elraine is afflicted with a special disease that killed a third of the world's population, and the only reason she isn't dead yet is because of Kiri's mysterious ability.]]

* Another battle couple/SpyCouple cross are Steven and Samantha Bloom in ''Undercovers''.

* CaptainAmerica (James "Bucky" Barnes) and Black Widow.

*** A character-specific example of this are Negi and his partner Asuna. As of chapter 252, [[spoiler:Konoka and Setsuna got into a Pactio]], which means they've pretty much become a BattleCouple. [[spoiler: Natsumi and Kotaro may be their path to become another BC.]]
