TamaHaru

TamaHaru is the het ship between Tamaki Suoh and Haruhi Fujioka from the Ouran High School Host Club fandom.

Canon
Tamaharu became fully canon in the manga, but as of right now it is not confirmed in the anime. Haruhi and Tamaki develop deep feelings for each other in Volume 12 and upwards (although it could be argued they begin crushing on one another long before this). Tamaki has feelings for Haruhi very early on - perhaps as early as the first episode - but misinterprets his feelings as fatherly love. As the anime begins to stray away from the manga, it also begins to explore Tamaki's feelings. Although I love Tamaki's character in both the anime and manga, I must admit he is far more appealing in the anime. As well as this, his unusual affection for Haruhi and the trust they share is tested in the final episode, when the pair hug in mid-air, as they fall from a bridge.

Undoubtedly, Tamaharu is a canon ship. But, what about the anime watchers? They haven't seen the intimacy of these two Hosts, and do not know of their relationship. Well, it's very possible that the anime of "Ouran Highschool Host Club" will be getting a new season quite soon. But, even so, how do they know that Tamaharu is a canon ship? It hasn't happened in the anime yet, despite being implied multiple times.

Actually, many fans speculate that the final few episodes of the OHSHC anime did confirm the feelings of Haruhi and Tamaki, just so the anime could end with a satisfying appeal. Does that mean the ship is technically canon in the anime as well?

Unfortunately not.

For the moment, we just consider Tamaharu canon in the manga.
