* ShipTease: flip-flopped fairly regularly, somewhat justified. As the plot of the game isn't focused on it so much as it is the relationship between artists, their fans and their music.
** On one hand, May and Zuke mainly act supportive of each other in a platonic sense since they are bandmates. When characters mistake them for a couple they either don't seem to get it (Mayday) or act like it never occurred to them that they may like the other (Zuke). Mayday also shows attraction to 1010, so it isn't quite a matter of then not being romantically inclined.
** On the other hand, They are ''almost always'' together (whether it's living in the base, out roaming on the field or fighting opponents), and despite not being blatant about it, various aspects of the game show how close they are, particularly interactions with their opponents
*** promotional art for the Encore Edition has Mayday getting close to fuss with Zuke's bowtie while they're gussied up for an event.
*** When Sayu explains she sees the love between them, Zuke is notably flustered and starts overcomplicating it. Mayday for her part is more focused on fighting her.
*** 1010 getting Mayday to want romance gets Zuke to [[OOCIsSeriousBusiness do one thing that's very surprising,]] have a FreakOut, an consistently get annoyed trying to snap her out of it.
*** DK West teases Zuke about being a couple with Mayday, while it's mainly because it's a point of contention the Zuke got the attention of a girl West liked, neither Zuke or Mayday argue that it's not the case.
*** Eve's subtext of [[spoiler: being Zuke's ex-girlfriend is fairly heavily blatant, especially with her backstory videos, art, and the creators confirming her to be Demisexual. The fight itself has her try to get Zuke back, lash out after being rejected, insult May for being "pedestrian" out of jealousy, see how strong his and Mayday's bond is, assume they ''both'' hate her, and push Zuke away at first only to become AmiableExes. On Zukes side, he's verbally supporting Mayday in the face of everything including being separated, more or less asks for May's Permission to speak to Eve alone, and he praises her greatly, going as far as to say Eve giving Mayday a chance could help her see what he sees in her an become friends.]]

** Another hint to her motives is with Yinu. She has accepted Yinu despite not being an EDM artist and adjusted her neoclassical genre to incorporate dubstep. Despite not being EDM either, Tatiana didn't offer to adjust Bunk Bed Junction's genre to be a hybrid Rock and EDM which means she has a vendetta not against non-EDM, but Rock specifically.
