My Hero Academia/Ships

My Hero Academia ships. Please add as much content as you can to the ships. Should a ship meets the requirements for a page users are allowed to make one. Ship pages must have four five sentence paragraphs, or the equivalent, split between the canon and fanon sections with content in both sections. As well as at minimum one link in the fandom section. Refrain from adding images to ship sections, but you can add them once there is a page. If you're unsure if a ship meets the requirements for a page, discuss with a member of our admin team.

AoyaChako
AoyaChako is the ship between Yuga Aoyama and Ochako Uraraka.

Canon
After Izuku’s poor performance in the ball throwing sector of the Quirk Apprehension Tests, Ochako watches Izuku worriedly. At this, Yuga grabs her shoulder, and tells her “I’m here, cherie.” To this, Ochako looks at him confusedly before asking if she knows him (Note: “Cherie” is French for “Darling” or “Dear”)

Yuga and Ochako are paired to fight Thirteen for the combat section of their Final Exams (5th matchup). Partnerships were made between students seen to share similar weaknesses, meaning that the two, even with as heavily differing quirks as theirs (Navel Laser and Gravity) are similar in combat.

They soon find themselves holding on for dear life to a railing as Thirteen keeps their Black Hole working against them. Ochako whines that they were so close to victory before they were caught, but instead of relenting to defeat, she begins to contemplate on how to escape her and Yuga's situation, more specifically, thinking about “What would Deku do in a time like this [that]?” The moment this thought goes through her head, Yuga says “Hey,” to catch her attention, but Ochako tells him to quiet down, as she’s busy thinking. Yuga then asks, albeit rhetorically, if she was thinking about “what Izuku Midoriya would do”. Ochako gives him a quizzical glance, before Yuga asks the last question she’d expected with a knowing glance: “Do you.. like him?” At this, Ochako blushes furiously, and momentarily forgetting her current predicament, moves her hands to her face to hide it, but in doing so, gets pulled towards Thirteen. As to not permanently injure her, Thirteen deactivates their quirk, giving Ochako the opportunity to use the combat skills she picked up from Gunhead to pin down Thirteen. Before they can escape, Yuga joins Ochako, and together they capture Thirteen with the quirk-canceling handcuffs they were given prior to the exam, allowing them to complete their exam, and more importantly, pass.

After she regroups with her classmates, Ochako is jittery, even jumping when Tsuyu grabs her shoulder, and asks what Yuga said to her. Ochako doesn’t remember what Tsuyu is referring to at first, but once she does, she flusters once again, turning red and moving her hands rapidly in denial at something no one knows to Tsuyu’s confusion. At this, Tsuyu lifts a finger to her chin, and thinks to herself that “something happened out there, huh, Ochako.”

Fanon
Due to their lack of interactions, and Ochako’s already prominent crush on Izuku, AoyaChako is not particularly popular in the MHA/BNHA fandom. However, Yuga’s interest in befriending Izuku late in the series was read in more than one way (simply wanting a friend in Izuku); either Yuga has romantic feelings for Izuku, or is interested in Ochako and wants to keep tabs if she and Izuku are, or are going to get together before he makes a move.

AoyaChako has 9+ works on AO3.

BakuMei
BakuMei is the het ship between Katsuki Bakugou and Mei Hatsume from the My Hero Academia fandom.

Canon
In terms of manga/anime canon, Katsuki and Mei have never interacted directly, although they can be inferred to be at least aware of one another as long as the events of U.A’s Sports Festival after witnessing each other’s participation. This is partially due to their differing classes and courses (Katsuki in heroics, Mei in support), as well as the fact that Mei’s canon appearances are rather scarce, almost all of which stemming from the need of costume repairs for (mainly) 1-A students after battles or training, which Katsuki seems not to need all too often, the largest change in it being the transition from regular to winter.

However, the official spin-off Team Up Missions, a series of side events from the main plot, has them meet, starting in a bonus comic (celebrating the release of TUM’s first volume); Katsuki addresses himself as the “main character”, but is told “NO!” by a smiling Mei in a blurb. More significantly, chapter 3 of the spin-off, titled “Two Who Can Support”, has Mei competing against Melissa Shield, a fellow inventor and gadget-enthusiast to see who can create the better support item for Izuku’s [hero] costume. Katsuki, accompanied by his friends Eijiro and Denki come to watch as the items are tested in the environments of the USJ.

Mei is the first up, with her “baby”, named “The Automatic Defender EX”, a full-body armor with the ability to automatically defend- as the name suggests- the wearer from attacks, such as the falling boulders it’s tested by. However, the imvention’s battery apparently depletes within the span of 40 seconds. Izuku, previously unbeknownst to this, ends up crushed by a boulder due to this fault. From a balcony above, Katsuki is there to witness this, and his eyes blow wide alongside a grin. Leaning down from the balcony’s railing, he shouts, “Good!! Die like that!!”, directed towards Izuku, followed by “Good job, ‘Invention-Girl’!!”, having enjoyed watching Izuku suffer.

Fanon
While largely a ‘rare-pair’ in the MHA/BNHA community, it is overshadowed by het pairings such as IidaMei (for Mei) and Kacchako (for Katsuki). BakuMei is an extremely rare ship in the fandom for their lack of interactions, and it's overshadowed by other ships such as IzuMei or KiriBaku. Some draws its fans with the headstrong natures and tendencies of either character, as well as the explosions both can cause. Katsuki’s is on purpose, while Mei’s is unintentional. Fans of Mei, who prefer to think of her with someone who matches her intensity often turn to this pairing, seeing that Katsuki is as intense as it gets. It has a small fanbase on tumblr.

Some fans speculate they could be somehow friends since Katsuki is always causing problems or explosions due his quirk and his desire to have a fight while Mei causes some explosions and disorders unintentionally thanks to her desire of making new machines or weapons for battle. They are carefree students, the difference only that Mei have the ideals of helping people and heroes, while Katsuki has more of a will of killing villains.

Canon
Melissa and Katsuki first meet in the first movie My Hero Academia: Two Heroes, although they had no interactions whatsoever. In their first meet, however, she asks why he is so angry. During the assault on I-Island, the 1-A students, especially Katsuki, work together to help I-Island from Wolfram's crew.

In the Chapter 3 of the spin-off Team-Up Missions, in which Melissa makes an appearance again after the movie, Katsuki is among the audience used to spectate the inventions she and Mei Hatsume made. It can be noted that despite them appearing together, they almost never interacted.

They are blond-hair people, and both have a great admiration towards All Might, only that Melissa is blood-related to him. Katsuki and Melissa has a different way of justice, since Melissa doesn't have a quirk but desires to study and get more knowledges to help other people with science just like his dad, and Katsuki due he has a rather explosive quirk, he always tries to kill the enemy first and then check on his colleagues, but although he actually does care and gets worried about his partners even he doesn't shows it openly.

Melissa is a very energetic and kind woman who tries her best to help and always tries to cheer up others, while Katsuki is also energetic, but he is rather rude, loudmouth who somehow treats everyone like they're inferior to him. Melissa after meeting Izuku's class she wanted to know all their names and tried unlike Katsuki that he doesn't know their names and often calls them by nicknames he makes at the moment,but is quite intelligent since he does know everyone's quirk from their class.

Fanon
BakuMeli is considered a rare pairing, as they both have little to no interactions in the movie nor the spin-off. It is also due to the existence of Melissa, who only appeared in the said movie and spin-off and many members of the fandom only watching the main anime. However, it is one of the top ships for Melissa other than its rivals DekuMeli and the femslash ship MeiLissa. It rivals other popular ships such as KiriBaku and Kacchako for Katsuki, and the mentioned ships for Melissa.

They can be portrayed as hero and support hero, much like the het ship IzuMei, which eventually causes them to grow closer to romance. It can also be portrayed similarly to canon, much like its other rivalling ships.

Grapefrog
GrapeFrog is the het ship between Tsuyu Asui and Minoru Mineta.

Canon
In terms of canon, Asui is arguably the girl that Mineta is closest to in Class 1-A, with the two teaming up on numerous occasions, such as during the USJ incident, and the cavalry battle. Despite being disgusted by Mineta's frequently perverted behaviour and usually slapping him with her tongue when he makes inappropriate remarks, she has been impressed numerous times by Mineta's keen intellect, such as his successful strategy to lure Midnight away from escape gate to rescue Sero and pass the exam, his strategy to hide himself, and Tsuyu herself on Shoji's back during the sports festival, and his successful usage of his quirk during the USJ incident, where he saved her and Izuku Midoriya from the incoming villains, earning her praise in almost all of these scenarios.

Fanon
In fanon, GrapeFrog shippers usually include the ship in fanfiction involving Mineta redeeming himself and outgrowing his perverted tendencies, with Asui helping him to do so.

GrapeFrog is not a very popular ship, as Mineta is arguably the most hated character amongst the My Hero Academia fandom due to his perverted nature, and that Asui is more frequently shipped with Tokoyami, Uraraka, Izuku, and even Toga.

InaCamie
InaCamie is the het ship between Inasa Yoarashi and Camie Utsushimi

Canon
While Shoto is deep in his thoughts, Inasa shows up, greeting him and Katsuki with "Heyyy, UA!", Shoto still keep his frown and thoughts to himself; "Definitely didn't want to deal with him..." before Camie shows up from behind Inasa, asking Inasa who's this (Shoto), "What a specimen", saying that she's awestruck, really, thinking that it's a delight getting to take the course with a handsome man, she looks at Inasa and states that he seems to know 'this cutie', she introduces herself to Shoto and exchanges phone numbers with Shoto. Inasa, seeing them interacting, energetically said with a loud voice, saying that nobody beats Camie when it comes to playing the field, he could learn a thing or two! He seems to not realize that Camie is flirting, not doing some 'Wanna be friends?' thing.

After Gang Orca throws Inasa, Shoto and Katsuki, Camie stares at him being irritated with a clueless look.
