is
hinted at throughout the show, in the first episode he winks at her during Lion-O's test, in "Journey to the Tower of Omens" he stares like an idiot at her as she runs up the walls of the tower, in "Sight Beyond Sight" the
entire race
was just a cock fight between the brothers over her attention, and in "The Forest of Magi Oar" he gives her a flirtatious look after he catches her (this being the first time
she
actually reacts to any of his antics).
Cheetara was harder to figure out because she spent so much time with Lion-O trying to support him in his quest to master the sword, master himself, and gather the rest of the stones, however there are small moments where one could theorize where her feelings truly lie (such as in "Berbils" where she opts to sleep next to Tygra).
Yes, the did play up Lion-O/Cheetara so that when she chooses Tygra it feels like a twist, but if you pay attention and actually watch the show it's not that hard to figure out (the almost exact same thing happened in Gurren Lagann with Simon/Yoko/Kanima, this only difference is instead of Tygra it was Lion-O who dies).
retcon definition
/ret'kon/ retroactive continuity.
The common situation in fiction where a new story "reveals" things about events in previous stories, usually leaving the "facts" the same (thus preserving continuity) while completely changing their interpretation.
All of Tygra's 'flirting" can also been seen as simply in his character. The wink - Tygra is a flirt with the ladies. Easily seen within his character and even stated in the show.
Tower of Omens, they all looked pretty impressed.
The race - again, within tygras personality to "show off" that he is better than Lion-O. As a matter of fact, that is the overall feel i took away from the scene; not that Tygra was trying to impress Cheetara but more so that he just wanted to make Lion-O LOOK BAD.
There are those who do/did pay attention and watch the episodes and they saw Lion-O/Cheetara.
