Shizumafu

Shizumafu is the femslash ship between Shizuku Hinomori and Mafuyu Asahina from the Project SEKAI fandom.

Canon
Mafuyu and Shizuku are second-year students at Miyamasuzaka Girls' Academy as well as fellow members of the archery club. The two refer to each other with last names and honorifics. It is shown that the two have a friendly relationship, and Mafuyu treats Shizuku like a normal person, which makes Shizuku extremely happy. They both have mature appearances and "perfect" images in their own way, but deep down are different. Shizuku is quite airheaded and struggled a lot due to her beauty and talent while she was a member of Cheerful*Days, often getting accused of favoritism by her group members, while Mafuyu's real personality is that of an apathetic girl's who has lost her identity due to pressure from parents and peers alike. The two do not have many interactions.

In their first area conversation at Miyamasuzaka Girls Academy, Shizuku apologizes to Mafuyu for not being able to make it to archery practice as often, and Mafuyu reassures it's fine, symphatizing that she must be quite busy. Mafuyu tells her she's welcome to come to practice when things have calmed down, and that she's looking forward to seeing her in the club room. In the second one, Shizuku tells Mafuyu she has the time to come to archery practice. Mafuyu asks her about her equipment's condition and suggests they could do some maintenance on it before practice. Shizuku thanks her for the suggestion and then thinks to herself how Mafuyu is always so nice. In the third one, Mafuyu asks whether Shizuku's water bottle is filled with tea or a sports drink, and Shizuku tells her she puts tea into it during summer and miso soup in winter. Shizuku happily explains to the confused Mafuyu how she loves its taste and that it's good for your health. She then becomes even happier when Mafuyu understands where she's coming from, and tells that others (except for MORE MORE JUMP! members) often find it weird. Mafuyu assures she hasn't seen anyone doing it before, but it fits Shizuku so there's nothing wrong with doing it.

The Moon Rabbit & Us
“The Moon Rabbit & Us” opens with Shizuku and Mafuyu at Archery Club together, where they compliment each other’s skills. Mafuyu then takes notice of Shizuku looking a bit concerned, and she decides to ask Shizuku about it. Shizuku opens up to Mafuyu about not knowing what to do with MORE MORE JUMP! for their next stream, to which Mafuyu suggests that she do something seasonal, providing moon viewing as an example that accidentally sets Shizuku onto a nostalgic and emotional path of recollection that becomes the focus of the event.

And Now, The Ribbon Is Tied
Mafuyu and Shizuku interact in Mafuyu's second side story. Shizuku calls out to Mafuyu who is lost in her thoughts in the hallway and asks if she's doing okay. She puts her hand on Mafuyu's forehead and mutters that it isn't hot at all. Mafuyu lies and says she was just moving her bangs out of her eyes, and Shizuku apologizes for misunderstanding. Mafuyu assures her it's fine and that she's happy Shizuku was concerned about her. Mafuyu then asks if Shizuku always checked Shiho's health that way as well, and how she is a bit envious because she has always wanted an older sibling who would look after her. Shizuku thanks her and says Mafuyu would also make a great older sister, complimenting her hardworking, caring and proactive nature, and how everyone in school trusts her. Mafuyu modestly takes the compliment and then asks Shizuku if she's ever had a hard time being an older sister. Shizuku explains that while she was worried whether Shiho would make friends or not, what she was most worried about was being too selfish in her own mind - not being able to spend time, be by Shiho's side, or making Shiho worry about her due to her idol activities. Shizuku then apologizes for talking so much and Mafuyu tells her she doesn't mind it, explaining she's always interested in hearing about siblings' relationships, and how she can understand just how much Shizuku cares for and loves Shiho.
