NatsuSaku

NatsuSaku is the het ship between Hyuuga Natsuhiko and Sakura Nanamine from the Toilet-bound Hanako-kun fandom.

Canon
Natsuhiko and Sakura are classmates, and they, along with Tsukasa, are responsible for spreading rumors around the school. It is unknown when, but Natsuhiko has developed romantic feelings for Sakura. He even calls her "my lady". He often indicates his crush, and thinks that her less than kind actions towards him - like trapping him along with Nene - are simply her way of showing affection. She seems to tolerate Natsuhiko, but she also doesn't seem to have any particular affection for him, and often rebuffs his attempts at romance. She often finds him annoying.The two of them both work together under Tsukasa and form the broadcasting club. They do not always get along well, and Natsuhiko seems to like Sakura more than she likes him, although her exact feelings towards him are uncertain. She often acts coldly towards him and becomes annoyed with his behaviour. However, the two are capable of working together and Natsuhiko often gets things done when Sakura asks him to.

In Chapter 92, Tsukasa is close to Sakura as he asks her questions, but Natsuhiko yanks him off of her and makes him leave. Sakura welcomes Natsuhiko back, and he offers to help her up which she refuses. Sakura asks if Natsuhiko did what she asked him to do, and he poses and says he would steal the moon for her if she asked. The two talk about what would happen if the yorishiros were all destroyed, and Natsuhiko asks if Sakura would go on a date with him if everyone ceased to exist. Sakura says that Natsuhiko wouldn't be here if everyone ceased to exist, and Natsuhiko says that he might be there. Sakura says that she would go on a date with Natsuhiko if he were to live, much to his delight.

After School Hanako-Kun
Natsuhiko is able to get his hands on a love potion that he plans to use on Sakura. Natsuhiko stares at Sakura as he narrates about how beautiful she is, and Sakura asks if he needs anything. Natsuhiko takes her hand and says he didn't need anything but he couldn't help but be enchanted by her beauty. Sakura smacks him, and Natsuhiko narrates that he and Sakura are close enough that they can come out and say when they're unhappy. Natsuhiko thinks that this means their love is deep and mutual. Natsuhiko offers Sakura some tea that he laced with the love potion. Tsukasa takes the tea, and Natsuhiko ends up being the one drinking it. He falls in love with himself and is instead enchanted with the beauty of his reflection in Sakura's eyes. The effects of the potion wear off a day later.

A mystical object changes Sakura's gender from female to male. Natsuhiko is heartbroken and upset though Sakura herself is unbothered by the change. Sakura puts on a male uniform and accepts that she'll have to spend the day as a man, and Natsuhiko is further upset by the fact that Sakura is hotter than him. Natsuhiko asks Tsukasa to change Sakura back to a woman, and he even starts crying tears of blood after he fails to. Sakura says that it wouldn't matter to her if Natsuhiko were a woman or even a flea, and Natsuhiko takes this as Sakura saying she would love him no matter what he is. Natsuhiko accepts that Sakura is a man, and he dresses as a woman and asks Sakura to hold him. Sakura smacks him again.

Fanon
This ship has 56 works on AO3, although it's the most written ship for the two. NatsuSaku isn't an exactly fan favorite ship, due to Sakura's somewhat violent behavior with him. Some fans warmed up to the ship after Chapter 92 when Sakura said she would go on a date with him if he lived.

Though NatsuSaku is a het ship, the ship is often headcanonned to be a femslash or non-binary ship, with Natushiko being transgender.
