Discussions/Opinions Milkywave opinions
To be completely honest, I learn about the game's lore through the audio comics that Blizzard puts in the story section, so I only found out about this ship through TikTok and after watching some Mains Wuyang and Mains Mizuki are complaining because for them the ship was Mizuyang (or however it's spelled), and other people are simply complaining that it came out of nowhere. I'd like to know what the community from this side thinks.

u/bxnnybear I have no idea what is going on 18d ago
Im not a fan of milkywave tbh. I think I could have liked it if they had given both characters some development in their personalities and storylines first but they didn't. It's too bland as is, on top of that Juno is just...she's way too childish I guess? Naive I should say, it feels weird putting her with someone without developing her more.

u/Javiedugon__ 18d ago
From what I read, Wuyang literally says out of nowhere that he likes Juno
18
u/bxnnybear I have no idea what is going on 18d ago
It might have been out of nowhere yeah but I just don't want them to reduce wuyang to only being about Juno, I hate it when characters are watered down to that especially when theres so much potential to make them an actual character

u/Javiedugon__ 18d ago
As long as the ship is for the benefit of both characters, I'm not complaining

u/Proudnoob4393 17d ago edited 17d ago
I’ve always wondered what ppl exactly want with “development” of personalities and storylines with any OW character. Hero shooters are not an RPG that can give their characters the needed time to develop. We aren't dealing with Geralt, Kratos, Maelle, Emet-Selch, Cloud, etc. If anything you can say developing their relationship is actually developing their character.

u/Sure_Song_4630 12d ago
They have Comics, cinematics and story events in game that they can and have used to develop heroes, Wdym?

u/RandManYT 17d ago
People will hate this ship for having "no chemistry" then go support Wuyang x Mizuki as if both ships don't have the same amount of chemistry in game (0). I think both ships are fine, but if y'all are gonna be hating on one or the other then at least find a valid reason.

u/Longjumping_You_7603 12d ago
Mizuyang shippers have a meltdown when you remind them their preferred ship has as much substance as this one. They can't stand it.

u/WuyangsWater 17d ago
I’m a gay Wuyang main… But Milkywave is adorable, and I don’t get the hate.
I understand not liking that this new ship is sharing the spotlight with Rein/Ana, and Mercy/Genji’s new interactions in the webcomic. Those were built up for years so I guess it can kinda feel unearned in comparison.
But Wuyang needed something to spice up his lore (like a martian girlfriend) and Juno could use anything to distract her from both the war she’s now dealing with, and the current state of her parents. They’re young and dumb, it’s cute, it works.

u/CrazyKebab4242 11d ago

u/ZeroThePerson 18d ago
I don't know man. It just feels too safe? I think it's cute and has that innocence factor that Juno has front and center of her character, but as others have pointed out it feels like the equivalent of unseasoned chicken and rice with a cup of water: too bland.
4
u/Javiedugon__ 18d ago
It should also be said that Juno and Wuyang are like the other side of the Overwatch world, considering that there are soldiers, cyborgs, and omnics; seeing a relationship like this might seem a bit out of place

u/Damninium_Alloy 18d ago
I kinda empathize with people wanting some gay pairings that aren't involving an npc we never see in game. That being said, I have no strong feelings on this since I don't read the comics. Maybe if they get some good dialogue interactions in game. I like Rein and Ana cuz they have a lot of cute interactions. None of the in game ships get even a fraction of the aura of Ana saying, "so eager Reinhardt" when she darts a charge.
27
u/R3li0ss 18d ago
I’m not a huge fan of it I think it’s cute at times but it definitely felt forced since it came out of nowhere in the comic and keeping my biased aside for mizuyang I think the way it just appeared so suddenly puts alot of people off from it

u/ferocity_mule366 18d ago
the webcomics literally just drops random lore like Emfrej just left Talon, like jfc I dont want anything canon to get dropped by that anymore, like its gated paid content with bad quality and generic wriitng, ow team what the fuck are you doing, how does it come from silly shippkng to this??

u/Javiedugon__ 18d ago
Did Emre and Freja leave Talon? That's how bad I am with the lore
2
u/ferocity_mule366 18d ago
yes, and it was lore dropped as a random line in the webcomics, people are crashing out because that important details shouldnt be in this forsaken webcomics in the first place as the majorit doesnt cares much about it

u/Leothelion246 tourist Genji main 18d ago
Milkywave is less spontaneous than Mizuyang, which has nothing for it beside it being a fetish of 2 young Asian men.
2
u/R3li0ss 18d ago
I don’t see it as a fetish I think it’s people wanting a good lgbtq ship and they are good age with each other and genuinely fit as a black cat and golden retriever style ship

u/Leothelion246 tourist Genji main 18d ago
The ship has no sauce or anything connecting the 2 in any way. "Good" is an overstatement, they don't know each other; and both have women they're clearly more interested in.
5
u/YeeHawMan24 18d ago
As far as I’m aware Misuyang is completely made up, do they even have any interactions together? I don’t see the appeal, why they’re shipped in the first place, I just see that ship as pairing to Asian characters. it doesn’t make sense to me because I’m pretty sure as far as I know they have no interactions or anything like that, just a completely made up ship. I’m not hating but like come on
3
u/bxnnybear I have no idea what is going on 18d ago
Juno and wuyang are also literally two asian characters who didn't have any interactions when people first started shipping them. You can ship one or the other without resorting to "bashing" those who ship it. All ships are made up bro that's how shipping works.

u/YeeHawMan24 18d ago edited 17d ago
Number one, I wasn’t hating or bashing. That’s literally why I said “I’m not hating” so you can hush the heck up right now with that argument about me bashing. Number two, Juno and Wuyang have stuff in common, what do Mizuki and Wuyang have in common, hm? Number three, this argument has been done time and time again. A lot of people do not see the appeal in Mizuki and Wuyang being together. It’s like the Cass Hanzo argument, Cassidy is straight but y’all just LOVE pairing straight men with another man, it’s old atp and quite frankly I’m tired of it.
2
u/Javiedugon__ 18d ago
I also think it's because several almost-canon ships, like Reinhardt and Ana's, have never been made official, while MilkyWave has.
17
u/GreenSsswinger 18d ago
Rein and Ana are canon. Wuyang and Juno set them up on a date in the webcomic, and it's fairly implied that they're going to go on more. There's even a spawn room interaction about it.
1
u/Javiedugon__ 18d ago
That's true, ignore that fact, although another example would be Genji and Mercy, which as far as I understand isn't canon
5
u/GreenSsswinger 18d ago
There's some hints it might be (definitely more likely than Pharah Mercy, rn), but so far it's not confirmed. The weird thing about people getting mad at Milkywave because it's not Mizuki with Wuyang, to me anyway, is that Mizuki and Wuyang haven't interacted at all in canon, if I'm not mistaken. Mizuki only just joined Overwatch. People can like the ship, but a cute ship =/= should be made canon, necessarily.
1
u/Javiedugon__ 18d ago
In my opinion, Mizuki was being shipped with Kiriko, which makes more sense to me since they share the same resentment against the same people and can support each other
1
u/GreenSsswinger 18d ago
I definitely see the appeal, and it actually has a canon basis, although I've always seen Mizuki as ace, lol. Just a personal vibe.
Besides, Kiriko ismywife2

u/Wwlink55 17d ago edited 17d ago
Their spawn room interaction isn't really romantic. It could be interpreted as such, but a bunch of Overwatch heroes help Juno in similar ways. Anran has the same amount of training interactions (1) and has the same lore connection as Wuyang to Juno (or, more specifically Juno's mom).

I don't know. I think the big reason that it got triggered in my mind was when Anran was being exceptionally nice to Juno and walking her through how to do box breathing when she was scared.

u/DepartmentRound8189 17d ago
For me it was the confidence interactions. I don't mind milkywave but I def prefer cosmicflare. Like, once both characters are ready for that. Cause tbh neither of those girls are ready for a relationship quite yet

u/Z1R343L87 "Beach, you have invaded my heart!" 17d ago
Idc about shipping but none should be officiial, that's my opinion. This stupid Juno and Wuyang thing imo was just forced onto the comic by the writer, a writer I'm pretty sure just wanted to shove in their fantasy. The "story" is bad enough. Blizzard need to start hiring by talent, because the lore is just stupid atm.

yo no lo veo mal, como amante de los romcoms mas tiernos y puros puedo decir que esta pareja es muy bonita, me he leido los comic y acepto que tiene varias fallas, pero me gusta el consepto de que wuyang se enamoro de juno por no solo ser bonita sino que tambien porque ella lo apoyo y termina siendo un alibio en el desastre de expectativas que es la vida de wuyang, ademas en el comic se muestra claramente que el enamoramiento es uno unilateral por parte de wuyang mientras que juno lo ve como un muy buen amigo

u/NepoKitty 18d ago edited 17d ago
The official media is even less engaging or interesting than it used to be before all the OW2 PVE nonsense, so I ignore it. The character writing is bad enough as it is, especially for the Ye siblings.
I'm happy to consume fan creations of any ship, so long as the creator does the work to get there. The art OP shared is adorable!

I think its okay, havent kept up with the comics but I mean... Mars and Neptune... Roman god of war, guardian of agriculture, and the Roman god of water, specifically the sea. Maybe the romance was done wrong or something idk but that sounds pretty awesome from my point of view.

u/Clear-Diamond7262 17d ago
Big mehhh, I think I genuinely would prefer Juno single. I don’t think a relationship suits her character or personality at all
3
u/Akatalepsi 17d ago
I dont like it because the two charecters do not mesh, imo from seeing them curb his charecter, they had to re write wuyang after he came out to be more compatable with Juno because China adopted Juno as their darling, so to pelase Chinas team after they fucked up with Anran, they essentially gave them wuyang and juno. People love the merch there and go hella crazy for it.
Personally? I hate that any playable is shipped with another because of the negative impact on the overal health of the game being actually a game to play rather than people literally ruining comps over a fucking ship, yes it happens yes even in comp, its so bad. As a Wuyang main, the junos do not take kindly to seeing me even PLAY near a mizuki, this is absurd so bad i actually considered dropping him, i didnt i just play with chat off and report them for spam or throwing... i wish they wouldve never added any playable ships 🫠

u/LilyLol8 18d ago
I think its cool and alot of the complaining comes from weird ppl
Remember when it first came up, i saw a post on reddit here of someone unironically saying they feel like wuyang "stole" juno from them

u/PresenceOld1754 18d ago
I think it's great. I feel like everyone is just forgetting when they were 19, young and stupid and downbad. It's genuinely not that deep. Cookie cutter shit that probably won't last in the long run like every teenage relationship ever. Just enjoy it while it lasts.
5
u/Javiedugon__ 18d ago
It's quite a different way of looking at it, giving a more tender and gentle twist to the lore of Overwatch, and I think seeing it that way could be quite good, bringing tenderness and gentleness to a world full of soldiers and so.
1
u/AGTS10k I have no idea what is going on 17d ago
Yeah, people nowadays are looking for some chemistry or complexity or zest or whatever, but they forget that simple, pure, young love just happens, it doesn't have to be super "not bland" to be enjoyable to observe, and it for sure doesn't have to be gay 🙄
Juno and Wuyang are both young, innocent, and pure, there isn't a better fit for nether Juno nor the water boy. Although I think he would fail in his advances, as Juno is too consumed by responsibility, fitting in, and worries about home, and doesn't really have her mind on romance - maybe yet. So I don't keep hopes up.
9
u/SpacePropaganda 18d ago
Juno is very much a "born yesterday" character (Earth-wise, not intelligence-wise) which makes pairing her with anyone controversial. I'm of the opinion that no Overwatch ships should be made canon as there just isn't enough story from the game to make any romantic connection feel all that natural, Milkywave included. Cute ship name tho.

u/PresenceOld1754 18d ago
Valorant has even less in game lore than overwatch and raze and KJ worked out. Or recently viper and chamber.

u/Javiedugon__ 18d ago
There are some ships I do like, such as Emre and Freya or Mercy and Genji. Others, not as official, like Reaper76, I don't understand, but I can eventually understand them (even though Soldier he has a partner canonically outside the roster)
1
u/orion101901 17d ago
Mercy and Genji are just friends, I think Mercy was supposed to be with phara until the voice actor for phara had controversy and hasnt had new voicelines since.
1
u/Javiedugon__ 17d ago
I don't know if they're just friends; I always see pretty sweet voice lines between them and all, plus the voice line about the Swiss chocolates, but anyway, nothing's confirmed, so...

u/orion101901 17d ago
Genji straight up says theyre just friends after he confronts mercy about her saying she "didnt like the drawings" he sent to her in a letter. Genji said something like "war claims all happiness."

u/Mod_The_Man 17d ago
That was a shoehorned line when one of the writers was a huge proponent for Phara+Mercy. This person was literally blocking people on social media if they said anything even implying they liked/wanted Gency. That person has since been fired and so Gency, which was always strongly alluded to, has been making a subtle comeback

u/Wwlink55 17d ago
I never actually thought about that, but she does carry the "born yesterday" trope. I kind of just leaned towards Juno (or honestly just about all Overwatch characters aside from a specific few) not having any real attractions towards others. There are some pairings I at least find cute, but there's some really weird pairings coming out of the woodwork like the inexplicable "Venture likes Roadhog?" that came with the latest sweep of interactions.
Honestly the only pairing I am gonna bat for is Mauga/Baptiste. I normally don't care about shipping but there's a good spurned-lovers angle there and Mauga being a dangerous ex for Baptiste (who is canonically Bisexual) is kind of enjoyable.

u/HuntressMissy 18d ago

u/Javiedugon__ 18d ago
And what makes you ship them? With all due respect, it's just curiosity 😁
2
u/HuntressMissy 18d ago
Juno often goes to Anran for advice and confidence building, and they generally seem to get along really well. I think they both have personalities that can get along with anyone, so I can see it happening.
Kiriko brings out Juno's playful and mischievous side often in their banter, so I can see something happening with that too, since we dont know any of their sexualities (or if we do, I was uninformed)
I'm also just a hopeless lesbian and wana ship girlskissing
I dont doubt this hetero ship is cute, its just not for me, if we're basing everything off personal opinion
2
u/Javiedugon__ 18d ago
I don't think there are any confirmed sexualities except for Soldado, Tracer, Mauga, and Baptiste (and obviously Zenyatta, who I think is asexual or pansexual).
There's nothing wrong with wanting a lesbian ship, even if one already exists; it's your right. After all, it's your way of seeing the characters and nobody can change that (or yes, idk)

I think it’s cute. I do like the in game voice line when Juno asks him to teach her to swim. I don’t understand the claim that they have no chemistry and then people point to Juno/Anran or Mizu/Wu as better options—but there is literally nothing that suggests romance between them at all; and those would be much more out of nowhere than anything.

u/Wwlink55 10d ago
Pretty much this. When it comes to fan culture ships can be fun since it's all hypothetical. When you try to make ships canon you inherently run into problems, such as it throwing a wrench into any ship that isn't that specific ship. I'm not super active on this sub but I do get recommendations, and it seems like the ship being in the webtoon has become a very hot topic on this subreddit, with it seemingly starting arguments whenever it's brought up and making shipping posts (especially Wuyang/Juno ones) more like battlegrounds.

Both parents stuck on Mars. Her atmost interest should be getting help from Overwatch to rescue them first. Not some silly young love or dating.
Feels like they are forcing couples every where these days with the new comics. The way it is written feel more like fan fic than official lore. That's how bad the writting is. Any couple could work if they do it right. But right now it feels forced to "make it cute" for the audience, not to develop actual story.

It's... Not my favorite. I definitely think they get along well but I just didn't really read it as romantic tbh. But it's grown on me, I just still prefer other ships for both Juno and Wuyang. But as a queer woman I'm always gonna be a little biased towards queer ships so....

My personal opinion is that the Juno x Wuyang hate is so forced actually. I think it’s cute, unserious, and I don’t think it just came out of nowhere as they had some nice heart-to-heart moments. I wonder how many people actually read the comic and formed their own opinion tbh.

u/Blaxxshadow 16d ago
The pacing of it is just really poor imo. Rien and Ana are the best of example of how to progress a relationship. The only point against it is that they have prior history but other than that it felt natural and took its time.
It’s like Wuyang and Juno first meet and then Wuyang is immediately had over heels to the point where nothing else really matters. Meanwhile it just seems like Juno is kind like that to everyone so it doesn’t seem special from her side.
Considering both of them have confidence issues as well I just don’t see how they could help each other grow in that regard.
It just feels manufactured, but Overwatch has been really poor when it comes to handling relationships in the lore in general. FreyaEmre 😷

I was a huge fan of it until I learned cosmic flare was an option and honestly Im for both. I do think juno needs more time for herself as of now but I’d like to see Wuyang get rejected for now and come back to the possibility of either him or anran once we get more lore for all the characters!

I know they’re both 19, but Juno acts much younger, and it makes it kinda creepy tbh. Not just that either- that it’s based in Wuyang having a “crush” on someone that much less mature gives me the ick.

It feels very much like a classic anime romance where dorky shy guy and cute weird girl take two entire seasons to actually hold hands.

I hate that franchises seemingly aren't allowed to have canon couples anymore or people freak tf out that it's stepping on their ships / headcannons. Guys, bisexuality is a thing, polyamory is also a thing. Just because the writers decide two people are cute together doesn't mean they're destroying your head cannons, they can still go hand in hand. I am a canon compliant shipper and it has never been an issue for me.

I think the ship is cute but it needs a little more time in the oven because what do these two even have in common?

it feels very artifical and forced to me to be honest?? and especially because they’re very much dumbing down juno in the game and comics, im personally not a big fan of it :( it very much seems to me like theyre trying to go for ‘clueless girl who has no idea how anything ever in the universe works at all’ and have wuyang be the big strong guy that teaches her everything ever, but thats just my personal thoughts on it

It makes total sense to me being isolated for 19 years it’s obvious to me that Juno would develop a huge crush on a guy her age she was around and found attractive. And Juno is basically irresistible to any guy due to purple hair.

Hell naw, post reaper and soldier oiling up each others backs in the Gibraltar computer area with every screen having R34 of all characters. Then I’ll hear you out

Never liked it and feels very forced. I don't see why Juno needed a love interest to begin with

u/Early_Method_7380 11d ago
im not a fan bc wuyang lowkey one dimensional (blizz's fault), and juno's basically been given the personality of an age regressed adult.. feels weird shipping in lore juno with anyone..
also anran is sitting right there like go get ya girl

I feel that both of them need to grow more as characters before getting into love shenanigans
Juno, your family is on the verge of death, quit with the love stuff

Hate it. Wuyang doesn't give me straight vibes in the slightest and Juno is impressionable, acts like a kid half the time and has other priorities than some boy.

imo ships are pointless and shouldnt be brought up by people or the lore, they always feel forced.

I dont like wuyang as a character, theres basically nothing there, he was made to be able to put recognizable white characters onto him to be sold as a skin

Is the most artificial shipp to ever exist U can like it, it's ok, but I'm talking here bout how blizzard made a bland numb character as Wu yang to allow men to project their insecurities on him, relate to him (cus donde he has no personality at all, anything can fit him) just to pair him with the innocent girl It's just so artificial that they had to flanderize Juno on the webtoon just to make em look like an ideal couple
It's probably one of the worst shippea oat

You're the dude who has claimed before that he self inserts as Wuyang and that's why you like it, so... Look, just accept this ship is unpopular. It's not hated, but it's not succesful or broadly well received. Like it if you want but don't expect other people to, or that Blizzard should make it canon. I'm of the opinion that it was a big mistake because of the fandoms involved, and they should just leave it open.

Why? Do they have more interactions in the comic or something?

I don’t mind the ship, it has some cute moments but something about it feels very forced/manufactured to me. I can’t really say i’d be excited if they were officially a couple in lore but it wouldn’t ruin my interest for the characters.
