6. Hercules and Megara-Hercules
He may be a true hero and an all-around great guy, but he started out as an awkward kid whose lack of control over his superhuman strength wreaked havoc and made him an outcast. His heroic deeds were also all in service of an agenda: to restore his godhood and get him back to Olympus. Megara has a complicated backstory too. She sold her soul to Hades to save her ex, who repaid her by running off with someone else. The experience has left her understandably jaded, and distrustful of guys in general. So her interest in Hercules starts as an attempt to learn his weaknesses so she can report them to Hades, but she can’t help but fall for Herc’s innate goodness and charm, even if her signature number is entitled I Won’t Say I’m in Love. But by the end, they both end up risking everything for each other.
