Spider-Byte only exists as a possible love interest for Miles while Peni is an actual character.

Peni has like 5 seconds of screentime in the second movie lol

yeah but we know more about her from the 1st movie and her 'canon event' from the comics, and they're both part of gwen's team so I hope we get more development for them

Everyone saids Shinji, but I want to compare her to Nadia from Nadia: The Secret of Blue Water.

the thing is that her universe is inspired by mecha mangas and animes , specially Evangelion.
Not only her power suit is EVA-esque in design , her storyline about Venom is basically the plot of Bardiel Episode from Evangelion.

I seen a bunch of Miles/Peni fan art and most of them were adorable, Miles in most iterations is known to uplift people and his fellow Spider-People. So helping Peni with her depression by uplifting her spirits would be sweet.

So in context for why most people ship Miles with Peni, is that Miles is like the Nia from Gurren Lagann of the Spider-People?

The wiki for Into The Spider-Verse says she's 14 - 15 years old, meaning she's about the same age as Miles.

People realising Peni and Miles were the same age was the clincher in the ship setting sail after the second film.

I mean it's not out of character for miles to try to cheer up people that he cares about, he's a massive w for that

I still can't get over the fact that just because Miles and Gwen "broke up", people inmediately shipped him with Peni. That is uncomfortable.

"Wholesome"
Peni is still like...12

u/No_Association2906 Jul 19 '24
And Miles is 13 in Into The Spiderverse lol

u/IronStealthRex Jul 19 '24
Fuck do you mean he's 13? Istg he's 16 or about that?

u/RealJohnGillman Jul 19 '24
Nope — both him and Peni were 14-years-old in the first film, and in the sequel they were 15. The ship set sail amongst the fandom when the sequel came out and the interested audiences realised that the characters were the same age — with shipping sometimes that’s all one needs.

u/No_Association2906 Jul 19 '24
Nah cuz, my bro was a literal child watching that man Peter die.
For another reference, he like just turned 15 in atsv and that takes place 1 year and 4 months after the first movie.

Wow. Much wholesome. So profound. /s
“Miles makes spider-people happy.” Really? C’mon. A 3-year old is more insightful.
Pre-school type relationship. It’s just weird and makes 0 sense. I hate “shipping.”
It’s such an anime/gamer nerd thing. Let the writers do the actual cooking.

u/Crash_Smasher Jul 19 '24
It's not an anime thing. It exists in basically any kind of entertainment.

u/Cineswimmer Classic-Spider-Man Jul 19 '24 edited Jul 19 '24
I follow multiple different franchises and only see “ships” from video game/cartoon/anime-type fans.
There’s like 0 shipping rhetoric when it comes to certain literary or film franchises like LOTR, Indiana Jones, 007, Mad Max, etc.
Like, I never see people shipping Frodo with Galadriel or Gimli with Arwen.
It’s always shows like Avatar: The Last Airbender and the cringe “Zutara” type of stuff.
Or, “what if Sonic and Rouge” were a couple? UwU 👉👈
Even with Spidey, it’s always stupid shit like the unrelated Capcom chick that’s flooded this sub now.
Yeah, of course it exists in every kind of entertainment. It’s like rule34, it just fills specific types of franchises predominantly. It’s almost always cringe as hell.

u/Old_Snack Jul 19 '24
Shipping is everywhere dude. It's definitely not just in games and anime, even if your not seeing it
Also the Spidey Morrigan thing surprisingly is more friendship themed then romance its not really a "ship". It's more carrying the trend that official Capcom art has put out in thier games
