a romantic pairing in genshin impact, including kaeya alberich and diluc ragnvindr. many of the people on mihoyo's team, including the webtoon artist, support the ship, making it the most popular pairing in genshin after childe/zhongli. haters will say they're brothers but they're sworn so it's different; antis often completely disregard actually asian people who point out that from a cultural standpoint, the ship isn't so bad.
kaeluc are sworn brothers so it's not incest to ship them.

-Kaeluced or The Kaeluc effect is a phenomenon that describes an individual forcing others to believe that a Couple pairing / Ship is taboo when in fact the pairing in Canon from the fictional world is not taboo .
The term originated when two characters ,Kaeya and Diluc from Genshin Impact are paired up into as romantic relationship in the Fandom by people . In the Chinese version of the game , the two characters are said to be sworn brothers . However in the English version , they are said to be brothers . Due to mistranslation of their relationship in the game , several people have misinterpreted their relationship as incestuous and forced those who like the pairing to dislike it as it's deemed 'problematic' . Thus creating a debate on the two characters' dynamic. As Genshin Impact originate from China , people in China have confirmed the two are in fact not incestuous . However those who did not listen still have a strong stand about it and continue to push their beliefs.
* Please note that if you dislike a fictional pairing due to reasons , do not force others who like it to also react the same reaction and distain towards it. Block the person and move on to protect both you and the other party .
A : " Couple pairing/Ship name is problematic !!"
B : "How so?"
A: " *Talks about what they believe on such pairings and personal beliefs* "
B : " The relationship are not like this in Canon *Shows physical evidence* . However if you think it's like this due to your personal opinion , I suggest you avoid the pairing to prevent further misunderstanding and not spread false information to prevent arguments amongst people."
A : " Oh.... I will take note of this. Thank you.."
C as a spectator : (That was a close "Kaeluc effect"
Definition: A word similar to kaeluced ....)

Ah Kaeluc (Kaeya x Diluc), the worst ship i have heard in Barbatos historyπ like dude? They're siblings, but not blood related, but it's still wrong to ship them. Some people ship them cuz they're fictional characters, and yk it's still wrong to ship them, even tho they're not real. May Barbatos not forgive you kaeluc shippers out there <3 *if you sβ’xualize the ship pls get out of my sight you worm*
