Boschlow

Boschlow is the femslash ship between Boscha and Willow Park from The Owl House fandom.

Canon
Boscha and Willow both attend Hexside School of Magic and Demonics. Boscha is one of the popular students at Hexside who bullies Willow. It is unclear if Boscha's dislike of Willow comes from trying to mimic Amity, who distanced herself from Willow, or if simply due to their different social status at school. Whatever the case, Boscha is particularly unpleasant to Willow whenever she gets a chance.

In "Hooty's Moving Hassle", Willow, Luz, and Gus come across Boscha as she's going to Amity's moonlight conjuring; with Willow noticing her first. The three proceed to prank Boscha by scaring her off with The Owl House. In the same episode, Boscha was the first to notice the trio animating the house on Penstagram.

In "Wing It Like Witches", it was shown that Willow has garnered some popularity after she had regained her confidence after patching things up with Amity. Because of this, Boscha's bullying becomes much more intense after Willow unintentionally disrupts the attention and praise Boscha normally receives when grudgby season begins. In class Boscha steals Willow's hairpin and wears it, mocking Willow and calling her 'cute' for believing she was popular. She then proceeds to stick gum in Willow's hair before making a point of following Willow and her friends around all day to harass them. They face off in a grudgby match due to Luz's intervention and while Boscha is still unimpressed by Willow, her friends ask to play more games with her.

In "Hunting Palismen", the two are shown in the crowd next to each other as they waited to adopt Palismen. With Boscha exclaiming how she doesn't want a 'hand-me-down', Willow pushes her aside and teases her by saying, "Your loss!". After seeing Willow receive a palisman, Boscha pushes her aside and demands a palisman. She blushes after receiving hers, and it's unclear whether it was due to embarrassment of liking it or because she thought it was cute.

In "Any Sport In A Storm", it is revealed that Willow took an interest in sports and started playing Flyer Derby after her Grudgby game with Boscha. It is also shown that Boscha no longer has power over the school, instead opting to annoy Luz and Amity, none of which take her seriously. Willow also becomes the captain of flyer derby, making them both captains of respective sports teams in their school.

In "For the Future," Boscha refers to Willow as "Captain Half-a-Witch", which is the first time she has referred to Willow as "half-a-witch" while at the same time referred to her as a fellow captain. Boscha proudly assumes that Willow's friend group (which she refers to as a team) is having a conflict. She discusses how they both can't show vulnerability, because in doing so their teams will fall apart, and offers advice. This leads Willow to snap back, "You've been nothing but petty and mean to me since I met you. You want me to give up? You want me to admit that I'm stressed? What advice could you possibly give me?" Willow, emotional in that moment, gets caught off guard by a trap Boscha had set up. At the same time, there is a split second where Boscha is horrified of Willow before returning to her cocky attitude. This set up Willow's breakdown in her next scene.

Later in the same episode, Boscha helps the main crew. While Willow is running off to join the rest of the crew, she looks back at Boscha and yells "Hey Boscha, don't think this means I'm finished with you!" Boscha quickly dismisses her comment by saying she didn't do it for anyone, but admits she only wants to do normal things, look great, and play with her team before leading her team to battle. This is further proven by one of the background details in the episode. Boscha had written graffiti searching for her friends.

Fanon
Boschlow was one of the main ships that came out of the early Owl House fandom, besides Lumity. While no where near as popular as Lumity, it shares some similar traits such as one characters being very antagonistic to another, and may be part of the reason is gained fans. According to older fans it started to rival Lumity when it was first being shipped.

While most Boschlow shippers don't actually want the pair to become canon due to Boscha's bullying and only find the ship appealing in headcanons and jokes, some also interpret their relationship as more lighthearted due to their lack of screentime, allowing them to interpret their dynamic differently. In "Wing It Like Witches", it was revealed that Amity stopped being the Grudgby captain and was replaced by Boscha. In "Escape of the Palisman" it was shown that Willow often watched the school's Grudgby matches, going so far as to refer to the team name as "Winners". Because of this, many fans believe that Willow nearly beating Boscha in Grudgby was due to watching her often.

In "Any Sport In A Storm", Willow is also shown to have an interest in sports, and had a scene that parallels Boscha in Wing it Like Witches. She also states her interest in drama and "flare" according to official subtitles. Flare and anything fiery being heavily associated with Boscha's character.

Despite them being enemies they are quite often shown together and mentioned together by both the show and even Dana Terrace, who has said that Willow works out every morning, like Boscha, but doesn't brag about it. They compliment and parallel each other in many ways. With Willow exclaiming how her grades don't detract from her as a person, to Boscha exclaiming that everyone will hate her if not for her accomplishments. Both of them also have rooms filled to the brim with their interests. Willow's being plants and Boscha's being sports. Boscha and Willow are also akin to fire and water magic respectively to aid in their respective tracks.

Despite Willow being portrayed as strong and fierce by most of the fandom, some Boschlow shippers interpret Willow as softer, and focus more on the protective and understanding side of her character. She was shown to give wild witches a second chance despite being known as criminals, stating they may have done awful things, but they're not worthy of a petrification. Some fans also believe that Willow smiling at Boscha at the end of Wing It Like Witches signified her not wanting to take away Boscha's hobby and passion.

Some fans also speculate on Boscha having a sweeter and softer side, as she has been shown outside of contexts of just bullying. She is seen reading and discussing popular books with her peers, loving things she finds adorable, and talking with Amity between classes.

Outside of the show, the official crew was sometimes seen interacting with content regarding Boscha and Willow. Examples being Cissy Jones mentioning Eden Riegel, Boscha's VA, under a piece of Boschlow artwork, and Dana Terrace liking a fanmade Boscha and Willow chibi episode.

Most fanworks fall under two categories. One being closer to the show in which they are portrayed as more chaotic, enemies; and Willow, being the stronger of the two, attempting to punt Boscha into the sun after Boscha's attempts at flirting. And the other more character-analytical side, with comics and fanfics frequently portraying Boscha's redemption, often followed by Willow stating she wishes to be just friends, before the two inevitably fall for each other after seeing each other's softer and more understanding sides, whether it be days or even years later. On AO3, Boschlow is the most written ship for Willow and Boscha. It is also the third most written ship in The Owl House (Cartoon) tag.

That said, support for the ship has died down recently due to the popularity of the Huntlow ship. On On AO3, Boschlow is the second most written ship for Willow and most written for Boscha.
