EraserMic

EraserMic is the slash ship between Shota Aizawa and Hizashi Yamada from the My Hero Academia fandom.

Canon
Aizawa and Hizashi attended U.A. High school together and shared a homeroom, they became quick friends because of Hizashi's outspoken personality paired with Aizawa's quiet, moody one. Hizashi will often enthusiastically tell Aizawa something only for the other man to respond in a deadpan tone, but despite their contrast in personality, Aizawa clearly cares about Hizashi and listens when the latter speaks.

After Shirakumo's death. When Aizawa stopped socializing with his classmates and spent most of his time training, Hizashi was the only one who really stayed by his side and tried to help him get through the pain.

They do not have many canon interactions outside of being co-workers and fellow heroes. Even though Aizawa likes the quiet and prefers to sleep in the sleeping bag most of the time, he doesn't mind Hizashi's volume and although seems annoyed at times, never actually got angry at him.

Hizashi and Aizawa were the commentators for the U.A. Sports Festival together.

In chapter 253, Aizawa and Hizashi rides together towards Tartarus to find out that their good friend, Oboro Shirakumo, who they had thought to be dead, was actually turned into a Nomu called Kurogiri. Before the reveal Aizawa is notably tense and irritated, Hizashi touches his shoulder and says his name to calm him down. He succeeds and Aizawa keeps his composure. The two are then tasked by the police force to possibly awaken Shirakumo's character, buried deep inside Kurogiri's consciousness.

Hizashi defends Aizawa's decision to expel most of his class before Class 1-A.

Fanon
The ship is well-received in the fandom and it is supported by many fans. Mainly, people ship them for their longtime friendship and their contrasting personalities.

They are jokingly referred to as the dads of Class 1-A and Shinso, because of their apparent closeness and supportive teacher roles. Many seeing them as husbands who are already married in the canonverse since they argue like an "old married couple", with Aizawa blatantly ignoring Hizashi's shenanigans and Hizashi's constant bothering of Aizawa. A very popular headcanon/concept is that they adopt and raise Eri and Shinsou together as their own children.

It is the most popular ship for both characters as well as the fourth most written ship on AO3 for the BNHA tag.
