Niccosasha

"I had someone important to me once, too! That's right...! An Eldian!! A descendant of devils!! But...she enjoyed my food more than anyone I'd met before...She saved me from this stupid, worthless war...She showed me who I was meant to be. Someone who brings people happiness through his food. That was Sasha Braus. The woman whose life you took."

- Niccolo talking about Sasha

Nicosasha is the het ship between Niccolo and Sasha Braus from the Attack on Titan fandom.

Canon
Niccolo at first disliked Sasha due to her being Eldian as he was Marleyan, the people of Marley are taught that Eldians are devils and to fear Paradis Island which he believed in until he met Sasha.

The two are first introduced together in a flashback after Sasha's death, Niccolo is seen cooking seafood which Sasha eventually starts munching on lobster despite that Niccolo said Eldians are not free to eat it, Sasha is amazed by the new foods and tells Niccolo he's a genius which the Marleyan male blushes at her compliment but later tells Sasha to have some manners when eating. The two eventually become close after this.

Because of Sasha's compliment, Niccolo would use her feelings as a belief where his cooking can bring happiness to the people, He also claimed that Sasha saved him from the war between Marley and Eldia.

After hearing the news when Sasha died, Niccolo went to go visit her grave but eventually gets harassed by the Military Police as he was Marleyan. Jean and Connie stand up for Niccolo, Connie also thanks Niccolo for cooking food for Sasha as she enjoyed the food a lot. After paying his respect towards Sasha, her family arrives, and then Niccolo offers to cook a meal for them as a way of respect, Sasha's father also realized that Niccolo was the one who looked after Sasha which most likely proves that Sasha talked about Niccolo to her family.

When Niccolo finds out the person who killed Sasha he tries to kill her, he is shown enraged and even trying to attack her with a glass bottle, he tells Sasha's father to kill her killer with a knife, Niccolo informs Mr. Braus that if he doesn't kill the killer then he would before getting stopped by the Survey Corps.

Chapters later another Marleyan prisoner named Griez starts to call Niccolo a traitor for siding with the 'devils' as well for falling head over heels for Sasha and begins to insult Sasha which Niccolo becomes angry at the fact Jean tries to hold him back as Niccolo was threatening to kill Griez for offensively talking about Sasha, Griez eventually calls Sasha a 'whore' and then is later shot by Yelena in which Niccolo acts shocked.

The two were so close that even Kaya (a girl Sasha saved) believed Sasha and Niccolo were dating/in love.

Fanon
Most fans who see Sasha and Connie as a friendship more than romantically usually ship Nicosasha. The fan works amongst this ship are usually Sasha and Niccolo cooking together as both are known to be something involved with food, as Niccolo is a cook meanwhile Sasha enjoys all sort of foods and doesn't dislike one food. As well there would be fan art where Niccolo takes care of Sasha by cooking her favorite meals or Niccolo teaching Sasha how to cook different types of meals.

Although it's unknown if Sasha had feelings for Niccolo, most of the manga panels heavily hint that Niccolo had feelings for Sasha as the way he talked about Sasha and how she saved him. But it's known that Sasha most likely talked about Niccolo to her family as her father asked Niccolo if he was the one taking care of his daughter and cooking meals, as well the scouts understood how important Sasha was to Niccolo.

In the anime, Niccolo brings white roses to Sasha's grave and white roses usually represents "young love and enteral loyalty" as well for everlasting love which most likely representatives at the end Niccolo truly loved Sasha. In the flower boutique of white roses there were 24 roses which usually means "I will always keep you in my heart," which Niccolo does do.

Nicosasha is the most popular ship for Niccolo but this ship currently rivals Springles.
