Natsuri

Natsuri is the femslash ship between Natsuki and Yuri from the Doki Doki Literature Club! fandom.

Canon
In Act 1, Natsuki and Yuri are introduced as "rivals," in a way, as they bicker quite a lot about menial things, probably due to the large gap in their personalities, although they are friends beneath it all. A main source of their fights is that Yuri never knows what to say to Natsuki, especially about her poetry, which, more often than not, leads to Natsuki taking it the worst way possible and causing a fight to boil over.

Later on, it’s revealed that Yuri had always liked Natsuki's poetry but due to her social awkwardness, she could never find the right words to compliment it - leading Natsuki to assume it was an insult. They also seem to argue often, eventually prompting Natsuki to write a poem about her friendship with Yuri called "Amy Likes Spiders", in which a girl is ridiculed for her harmless hobby, a clear analogy to Natsuki's love of mangas and comics it’s told from what can be assumed to be Yuri’s PoV (Point of View).

In Act 2, it's revealed that despite all the arguments and gaps in interests, Natsuki wants to befriend Yuri and get closer to her when she writes a letter to the protagonist - explaining she's worried about Yuri's recent, worrying behavior. This shows that Natsuki does indeed care about Yuri.

During Act 4, after Monika resets everything, Natsuki and Yuri seem to be closer than ever - Yuri talks about reading a manga and Natsuki wanting to read a horror novel, so they can both understand the type of literature the other enjoys. They plan to go to the bookstore together after school. 

Fanon
Most of the fandom that ships Natsuri is in agreement that both Natsuki and Yuri are lesbians. The majority of the LGBT fandom also agrees that Sayori is a lesbian, while Monika is canonically bisexual/pansexual. Natsuki, Yuri and Sayori's canon sexualities have not been identified yet. However, there are good theories proving Natsuki is a lesbian.

Natsuki’s poem about her and Yuri, “Amy Likes Spiders” carried many sapphic undertones that were difficult to miss, such as the singing of a love song that was referred to in stanza 2 of the poem.

The girls carry very obvious tropes used in anime, Tsundere (Natsuki) and Yandere (Yuri), which make for interesting dynamics as well.
