In Anime/manga/movies/books/whatever do you like bickering couples? A couple of friends/lovers who argue a lot but in the end like each other?
I like:
Ranma&Akane from Ranma 1/2
Ron&Hermione from Harry Potter
Philia&Xelloss and Gourry&Rina from Slayers

I do like couples in manga or anime that argue about petty and trivial matters. Its kind'a nice in their relationship which adds to how you like them as a pair ^_^
I also like Inuyasha and Kagome's Pairing. But the tsundere in their relationship is more on Inuyasha. I also like Miroku and Sango's pairing ^_^

Tsundere is a Japanese character archetype wherein it describes an initially combative personality, which eventually becomes loving and emotionally vulnerable, normally found in japanese anime and manga. -answers.com
But I really learned about it at Genshiken ^_^

I like it a lot.
I loved Ron and Hermione :P
And of course the ever classic Mr. Darcy and Elizabeth Bennett.
It's also really cute in anime. ^_^

Just had to put in my two cents. I loved the novel Pride andPredjudice and the bickering couple Darcy and Elizabeth and hardly ever hear anyone talk about them. I am not up on Anime but Darcy and Elizabeth. them I can dig.

Hi Rowena, I don't like bickering too much but sometimes in stories it is kind of cute. I actually enjoy Ron and Hermione:)
So in movies and stuff I sometimes think it's cute, but in real life I don't like it too much.

I like bickering couples, they can be pretty fun.
My favorites are
Lum & Ataru (Urusei Yatsura)
Ranma & Akane (Ranma 1/2)
Keita & Yuuko (Inukami!) Note: Think Urusei Yatsura or Ranma with some demons and magic in the modern world... oh wait... =P
Junichi & Nemu (~Da Capo~) Note: Don't really like the couple, just the bickering
Makoto & Otome (School Days: PC) Note: Found in an ending. Love it!
Makoto & Sekai (School Days: PC, School Days: Anime) Note: Its funny...at first...
Saito & Louise (Zero no Tsukaima) Note: Hah! Love this too!
Yuji & Shana (Shakugan no Shana I/II) Note: Urusei, Urusei, URUSEI!!
Sugeru & Mahoro (Mahoromatic) Note: H is inappropriate! =P
Shungo & Reika (Goshusho-sama Ninomiya-kun) Note: Well, she(Reika) does most of the bickering

I like RanmaxAkane pairing so much;D They're "so~ uncute" together xP I thing arguing couples have great chemistry, if they're portrayed well. They're more lively that some of typical shoujo pairings where she loves him and he's acting b***y all the time. I never thought about XellosxPhilia pairing, but RonxHermione compliment each other's characters very well and I like to read baout them;)
