They bonded during the early days of EN, but it's not like they share a lot of interests or have much reason to stick together. Also forcing or focusing on a ship makes it hard to manage the fanbase, and can create a toxic type of fanbase that no one should have to deal with. So if anything they are incentivized to not focus on takamori.
