Overwatch Unintentionally Causes Gay Fan Art Revolt

As Overwatch renews its focus on narrative, the Overwatch Undivided web comics continue to be the source for a lot of the hero shooter’s relationship-building. While the audio dramas and cinematics you’ll find in the game’s Story menu are actually moving things forward, Undivided has been focusing on the new generation of Overwatch agents, adding some color to their connections as they try to navigate their newfound responsibilities and also budding friendships.

After months of fan speculation, the comic has confirmed that the water-bending support hero Wuyang has developed feelings for the socially awkward Martian Juno, breaking the hearts of anyone who shipped the boy with another man.

For whatever it’s worth, Wuyang and Juno are cute together. I am pro adding more gay characters and ships into Overwatch but I am not blind. These dorks are both trying to learn the ropes as heroes and finding comfort in one another. It’s sweet. In a series where most relationships have a lot of angst, trauma, or long histories to sort through, it’s nice to have something that’s just simple and cute as shit.

But what about the fans who shipped Wuyang with the other twink, Mizuki? What are they supposed to do now that the ex-Hashimoto agent is on the same team as Wuyang and the two aren’t kissing? Revolt with gay fan art, of course.
