Anikishipping

Anikishipping is the slash ship between Jaden Yuki and Syrus Truesdale from the Yu-Gi-Oh GX fandom.

Canon
Jaden and Syrus have been through some moments with each other, mostly when Syrus hugged Jaden and got teary-eyed when he sees him return.

Welcome to Duel Academy
After the students were welcomed into the academy, Jaden and Syrus were anointed as roommates, but then they got scared for a moment and hugged when they heard Chumly, their other roommate on the upper third bunk bed.

Duel of Love
During class, Syrus was picked by Dr. Crowler to explain about what a field spell card is, but felt humiliated when he couldn't find the right words for the answer. As Syrus felt insulted and embarrassed, Jaden stood up for him by reminding Dr. Crowler that he defeated him at the entrance exams. Then, when Syrus was being held captive by Alexis and her friends when he found a fake love letter in Jaden's locker, Jaden comes to his rescue by dueling Alexis, who had been defeated and Syrus hugs Jaden after he won the duel.

Raring to Go
During the episode, Jaden and Syrus slept through the whole test together. Later, Jaden had defeated Chazz Princeton in a duel exam and was now appointed Ra Yellow, but Syrus was going to miss him. However, when Jaden arrived back in the Slifer Red dorm to say that he lives in Slifer Red because being in the Ra Yellow dorm isn't his home. That had Syrus burst into tears and saying that he thought he'd never see him again. Soon, he started hugging Jaden so tight that he vowed to never let him go, despite Jaden trying to push him away because of the waterworks.

For the Sake of Syrus
Syrus felt discouraged by his brother, Zane Truesdale, that he decided to leave Duel Academy until Jaden jumped on his raft, breaking it and sending both of them plummeting into the water that Jaden had to save Syrus, who couldn't swim, and then tells him to not listen to what his brother said and believe in himself.

The King of Copycats Part 1
When Jaden was walking to the card shop, he sees a crowd watching Dmitri and Syrus dueling for the last ticket to Yugi's deck tour, and after Syrus won, he gives Jaden the ticket.

Get Yarr Game On
In the beginning of the episode, Jaden and Syrus had a feud about a trade made by Chazz Princeton, who traded Jaden for a rare card for Syrus' bed. Syrus also refused to come with Jaden when the Shadow Duelist pirate chose him (Jaden) to duel him. Then at the end of the episode, Syrus was missing Jaden and regretting ever getting into a fight with him until he hears and sees Jaden on a motorboat, which was breaking down that Syrus had to swim over to save him and apologize to him that he wants him to be his shipmate. Then, when Syrus realized that he can't swim, Jaden rescues him and promises to get him a new bed, as long as it's not a waterbed, before letting out a laugh.

I've Seen the Light
Syrus was arguing with Hassleberry for copying Jaden and telling him that he and Jaden have a stronger bond together. Also, Syrus said that Jaden is his best friend, his hero, and the hot fudge on his sundae of his life.

Camaraderie Contest
Syrus sees Jaden running to him and shouting out his name, that he started running up to him and give him a hug like in some of the episodes. However, it turned out to be a dream by Syrus after he defeated Tyranno Hassleberry in a duel to see who is Jaden's best friend.

Tough Love
After Syrus was defeated by his brother, Zane Truesdale, he passed out that Jaden ran to him, held him in his arms, and tried to get him to talk to him, but Syrus wouldn't wake up, although he did respond that he was fine. Then when Jaden noticed that Syrus was in bad shape, he cried out for help and that his friend needs a doctor.

Night of the Living Duelist
Jaden was worried about Syrus when the duel ghoul invasion began and hoped that he was okay. He was relieved to see Syrus okay, but then he, along with Alexis, Hassleberry, Jim, Axel, and Adrian, were shocked to see that Syrus also turned into a duel ghoul.

Breaking of the Sacred Seal
Syrus, who was turned into a duel ghoul, blocks Jaden's way of getting to Marcel and gives him a hug while begging him to duel him. Although Jaden told him to let go, Syrus remains hugging him.

Judai Revived!? A Brand New Journey
Syrus was seen sitting alone and crying about Jaden, who had to sacrifice himself to stop Yubel from hurting his friends. Then, when he sees a shooting star, he wishes that Jaden would return when it suddenly zooms passed Syrus and it crashlands in the forest around Duel Academy, where the asteroid reveals to be Jaden in one piece, and asking if the Slifer Red dorm is serving fried shrimp today.

The Approaching Threat! A Mysterious Visitor
At the beginning of the episode, Jaden had returned to Duel Academy through an asteroid and as Syrus saw him, he cries out tears of joy and runs over to hug Jaden, as usual, but before the scene faded into the Duel Academy. (There was also some romance music playing in the background when the episode started up)

Fanon
It is one of the most popular ships in Yu-Gi-Oh GX and the most popular ship for Syrus. The name Anikishipping comes from Syrus/Shou calling Jaden/Juudai "aniki," which is Japanese for "big brother" in the Japanese anime.
