Shooting Star is the femslash ship between Mukuro Ikusaba and Sayaka Maizono from the Danganronpa fandom.

Canon
Although they don't interact much on screen together, Mukuro often agrees with Sayaka when the latter is trying to state a point, or vice versa. They also seem to be on a positive note with each other.

In Danganronpa 2.5: Komaeda Nagito to Sekai no Hakaimono, Mukuro can be seen spying on Sayaka and Makoto Naegi from behind a tree.

In Ultimate Talent Development Plan, Mukuro asks Sayaka if she had fallen fo her (which Sayaka neither confirms nor denies) and Sayaka compliments Mukuro's slim figure and says that she's always thinking about how nice and slim Mukuro's legs are. This interaction ends with Sayaka and Mukuro talking over tea.

Both characters are implied love interests to Makoto Naegi.

Fanon
The "strong fighing character" and "cute soft character" relationship is a very popular dynamic, and these two perfectly encapsulate that. They also have the "socially awkward character" and "social butterfly character" dynamic along with the "stoic character" and "cheerful character" dynamic. This ship became more popular after their Ultimate Talent Developement Plan moment where they subtley flirted with each other. Most fans of Shooting Star ship them due to their UTDP moment and popular and cute dynamics they have.
