JozaCon

JozaCon is the slash ship between Jozak Gurrier and Conrart Weller from the Kyou Kara Maou! fandom.

Canon
Jozak was born a half-demon in Big Shimaron. The conditions of Jozak's early years vary by media: in the anime, he and his mother were sent to till infertile land as something of a punishment for interacting with the demon tribe. In the manga, his mother was a prostitute who abandoned him at birth and Jozak himself was taken to a concentration camp Big Shimaron used for half-demons and the humans who bore them. In both versions, Dunheely Weller eventually arrived and invited Jozak and the others with him to come to the demon kingdom. With him was his son, Conrart Weller, a half-demon himself and second prince of the demon kingdom. Jozak quickly decided he would follow Conrart anywhere.

Conrart led the Luttenberg division to prove the loyalty of the half-demons residing in the great demon kingdom (with Jozak at his side of course, being both his long-time subordinate and a fellow half-demon). In the anime, Jozak saved Conrart's life when they were separated from the rest of the troop in the battle by carrying him to safety.

During the main story it's clear that Conrart greatly trusts and respects Jozak. Though Conrart left the army and has no intention of returning, Jozak still follows him and Conrart relies on him for all manner of tasks (including but not limited to protecting Yuri in his stead).

Fanon
JozaCon is considerably more popular in the west. The ship has the third-most fics for any KKM ship on AO3 but only two total works on pixiv. This is likely due to the competition in Jozak ships provided for fans in Japan - several drama CDs hint at Jozak/Murata and the light novels themselves strongly imply Jozak had feelings for Gwendal. Also, since Conrart/Yuuri is more popular in Japan, people may be less likely to ship him with people who aren't Yuri. Interestingly, Jozak/Conrart has fewer works on FFN than AO3 (strange because AO3 didn't exist when the series was popular).
