1, CP (English name: Couple, Japanese name: カップリング) refers to ACGN couples who are in love. This word comes from ACGN circle in Japan.
2. Usually, this kind of pairing is not a conventional saying that they are a pair, but more often it is limited to personal fantasy that so-and-so is a pair, which generally refers to the intimate relationship between two people and is often used as a general term for partners and combinations.
3. It is worth noting that this appellation originated from Japanese cultural circle, which first appeared in the same-sex creation between men (that is, the direction of beauty /BL, and the pairing at this time can also be called husband), and later it was also used in the same-sex creation between women (that is, the direction of lily /GL).
4. Later, it was not only the same-sex works, but also cited in the same-sex works of men and women. Naturally, the theory of pairing is also popular in China's fan circles, and its meaning is more and more extensive, and it is not limited to the fans of the second dimension, but also frequently appears in various occasions of the third dimension.
However, it should be noted that the word "pairing" is basically just a homonym. In Japan, pairing occasions basically only appear in the creative activities of the same person. Who is paired with whom is only the personal preference and imagination of the same creator, which belongs to the second creation. Although we often see people say who is the official match, it is only a private communication with fans, and the official will not use the expression match.
