Neuvirina

"There's someone sitting up there in the VIP seats that has been striking a pose for quite a while now... I believe she is trying to give you a most elegant and impressive first impression."

- Neuvilette referring to Furina in the Archon Quest The City of Rains and Remembrance. Neuvirina is the het ship between Neuvilette and Furina from the Genshin Impact fandom.

Fanon
The ship emerged shortly after Furina and Neuvilette were shown in the game.

The Neuvirina ship is generally seen as an example of the common "tall boyfriend x short/petite girlfriend couple" motif in films, mangas, animes, light novels .etc - in the same vein as the ZhongTao, ChiLumi, Thomaya, Kukitto, Ittomiya, and Hailou ships.

People generally find the dynamics of their relationship to be a long tender one developed over years of working together. However, shippers often add a comedic twist to their dynamic as well within the ship.

Both Furina and Neuvilette are equally depicted as being the dominant/submissive one within the ship.

It is often commonly depicted as a mutual growth type of romantic relationship where Neuvilette's more mature personality keeps the dramatic and somewhat chaotic Furina grounded where as she in turn brings Neuvilette out of his shell. Similar to the dynamic of the ZhongTao ship.

One other theme applied to the ship is Angst. This is partly due to Furina ruling a nation that is prophesized to one day sink into the sea leaving her all alone.

It should be noted that many couples within the Genshin Impact fandom are attracted to the Neuvirina ship due to their matching color pallets allowing said couples to further match with one another through the use of profile pictures and other forms of depictions of the characters. This is likely due to the fact that aside from just their matching color schemes their dynamic in-game reminded many couples of their own dynamic within the real world.
