I don't do shipping, but it must be said that Ben/Kai's relationship was far better developed in the beginning than Gwen/Kevin's. Their fighting and bickering actually seemed to take the past into account, but in Ben 10 Returns Kevin's misdeeds are almost immediately forgotten as the two act wildly out of character/place to force the idea of the relationship from day one. It took about four episodes before Ben and Kai started to warm up to each other, but only a few minutes for Gwen and Kevin.
