MonoShin

MonoShin is the slash ship between Neito Monoma and Hitoshi Shinso from the My Hero Academia fandom.

Canon
Before they even met each other, Monoma and Shinso shared a distaste towards the students of Class 1-A due to the insecurities they held about possessing less stereotypically heroic or powerful Quirks than them and therefore, in Monoma's case, less attention and respect than they felt they deserved in comparison to the Hero Course class.

When they eventually interacted during the Joint Training Arc, Monoma took an instant liking to Shinso due to him sharing many of the same views as him regarding Class 1-A, saying to him things like "I like this one" and "I've really taken an interest in you." They're both sorted onto Team 5-B for the Joint Training Exercise, and are often seen together during the course of the matches that take place before theirs. When the time comes for their joint battle against Team 5-A, Shinso suggests that he and Monoma combine their Quirks in order to take down the class that they so dislike, which the latter is visually pleased by despite telling Shinso that it worries him that he's relying on him.

Monoma brings up their similarities with the lack of raw power behind their Quirks and thus needing to know what they can't do as well as embrace their darker side.

When Midoriya's Blackwhip begins going berserk, Monoma immediately calls out to Shinso in worry. And when Monoma is caught by Uraraka, Shinso calls out to him in worry while thinking "I need to save him."

They're shown to have some level of respect or care for each other as they both have apologetic thoughts about not being able to help the other out more. Monoma monologues an apology for Shinso about getting himself caught and Shinso thinks an apology to Monoma as he retreats instead of saves him.

They plan the team's strategy together, trusting the other to lead with Shinso suggesting combining his Quirk with Monoma's while Monoma says that he shouldn't be relied on and will be counting on Shinso.

Monoma helps out Shinso by using Nirengeki Shoda's Twin Impact Quirk on Midoriya before Midoriya could attack Shinso. To this, Shinso praises Monoma, thinking "Well done, Monoma!"

Monoma and Shinso don't have too many appearances in merch or in various games, but when they do, they are often together.

Fanon
Before Monoma and Shinso had even canonically interacted in the story, fans began shipping them together for their mutual dissent towards Class 1-A and "villainous"-style Quirks, the ship in time gaining something close to popularity when they eventually met and teamed up during the Joint Training Arc.

Shippers of this couple often paint Monoma as the one who has fallen for and begins to peruse Shinso, while Shinso apathetically accepts and eventually appreciates Monoma's over-the-top behavior.
