Kirinoodle

Kyoko x Cup Noodle is the cargoship between Kyouko Kirigiri and cup noodle from the Danganronpa fandom.

Canon
Kirigiri haven't mentioned or ate a cup noodle before, but despite of this, she seems on hating it with a "buring passion" because of a certain event the happened in the School Mode during the Dining Hall Trip (with Kyoko).

In the following event, Makoto is hanging out with Kirigiri to spend time with her. If the player chooses to ask Kirigiri if she liked cup ramen/noodle, she will be a bit shocked about the question and then she will start feeling "ill" because of Makoto's comment, and so he'll notice that things didn't go well.

After Makoto was saved by Chihiro before getting executed by Monokuma, he was thrown to a dumpster, that was a room in where Monokuma stored trash. Kyoko then arrives to save Naegi by bringing him some food and later she falls between the trash. After getting up of there, Naegi points out that Kyoko had "garbage" in her head, that was a half-empty cup noodle, and then Kirgiri throws it away for then continuing with her rescuing mission.

In the review of Danganronpa 3: The End of Hope’s Peak Academy, Kyoko is shown again with the cup of noodles on her head as a flashback of everything that happened before.

Fanon
Like other cargo ships from the franchise, Kyoko x Cup Noodle/Ramen received popularity in the moment she had a cup of noodles in her head during her rescue mission. It's uncertain if Kyoko hated or liked noodles/ramen though, but it was confirmed later during the School Mode. Even so, despite of Kirigiri's supposed hate in cup noodles, she's seen in canon artworks with a cup of noodles/ramen on her head with being unknowingly or just not minding it. Though, fans started to draw pictures portraying her eating ramen/noodles or with her with casual outfits plus a cup ramen/noodles on her head like in this image, that shows her eating the product while in this other image is seen Kirigiri with a cup of ramen/noodles on her head while she is seen on not minding it, or in this other one where is seen Kirigiri inside a cup of noodles/ramen. There are also canon sprites of Kirigiri with a cup of noodles/ramen on her head like this one. A fan also created a video about Danganronpa's characters consuming the cup noodles like Makoto, Kirigiri, or Junko.

With the popularity that the cargoship gained, there are different products like this is Kirigiri's model with the product on her head that was made by a fan that is still in store, and thanks to this, there are other people that made similar models involving her and the product like this one, and this other one. A fan also created a chibi Kirigiri inside a cup of noodles/ramen, while other fan created a keychain and finally, these fans cosplaying Kirigiri with, again, the product on her head.

Despite of the ship's popularity, it has their respective popular ships that overshadows the ship itself like Naegiri and/or Celesgiri like other cargoships such as Aoi x Donuts (that is overshadowed by Sakuraoi) or Mondo x Butter (overshadowed by Ishimondo and/or Chimondo).
