Chikuwada

Chikuwada is the poly ship between Chihiro Fujisaki, Leon Kuwata and Mondo Owada.

Canon
In Danganronpa: Trigger Happy Havoc, all three boys were participants of the Killing School Life. However, each of them die before the start of Chapter 3. They, coincidentally enough, all die back-to-back. Prior to the Tragedy, the three boys would have attended Hope's Peak Academy together as members of Class 78. Leon and Mondo are both blackeneds in the Killing Game, while Chihiro is one of the victims. In the context of the Killing School Life, Chihiro does not confess his true gender to any of his classmates until right before his murder. However, based on the events of Danganronpa S: Ultimate Summer Camp, it can be inferred that Leon and Mondo would have known Chihiro was a boy during their time together at Hope's Peak.

At the beginning of Chapter 3, the remaining students all investigate the third floor of the school, which has just become accessible to them. While looking around in the repository, Makoto Naegi finds a picture of Chihiro, Leon and Mondo laughing together. The picture appears to be taken in the school, but without the windows bolted up. This, of course, confuses Makoto. It is later revealed that this picture had been taken two years earlier, back before the Tragedy when they had all attended Hope's Peak Academy. This suggests that Chihiro, Leon and Mondo were all good friends with each other during their school time in Class 78. This is contrasted in the official artbook, however, with Leon and Mondo being shown to think negatively of each other on their relationship charts. Mondo believes Leon is a moron, while Leon thinks Mondo's style doesn't make him look popular. However, Chihiro is shown to think positively of both of them, saying that Leon has a lot of confidence, and that Mondo is pretty cool. As the artbook is based on their thoughts on each other within the Killing Game, it is still possible that they were close friends prior to having their memories erased.

Leon and Chihiro both share interactions with Mondo in the non-canonical Ultimate Talent Development Plan, but they do not share any interactions with each other. In Danganronpa S: Ultimate Summer Camp, Mondo and Leon both share interactions with Chihiro, but do not share a one-on-one interaction with each other. The three of them are present in an interaction with Kazuichi Soda and Kiyotaka Ishimaru. Kazuichi builds a jet-propelled raft and presents it to the guys. When Taka asks if there are any speed limits required for water vehicles, Leon says they should let loose and ride as fast as they can. He also points out that they can't really die in the virtual world. Chihiro argues that they still shouldn't drive too fast, and Mondo agrees with him.

Fanon
The ship mainly sailed after the photo of them was discovered in Chapter 3. This led some fans to come up with their own theories about what their relationship was like before the Tragedy. This discovery is also what likely led to the creation of the ships Chileon and Mondoleon, as Leon had never previously been shown as overly close with Chihiro or Mondo.

While there are some who like the ship, it tends to be overlooked in favor of Chishimondo, a much more popular poly ship that involves Chihiro and Mondo.
