I love SDK, but it's never quite been my favorite shounen, despite a few very enthusiastic periods. As much as I love large parts of it, Kamijyo is really bad a "Character complexity" shorthands (see: Yukimura and a lot of the Mibu) and it's one of those things where it all falls apart if you remove one or two things. (Take out Kyo/Yuya and it's not really worth reading anymore. Not because of shippiness, but because pretty much everything in the main story is built around that...remove "Yuya is Kyo's girlie" and you'd basically have Kyo travelling around and ignoring everyone, or fighting them and moving on, and never building up his posse or having the motivation that gets him to a lot of important points.)
