BakuMeli
 BakuMeli is the het ship between Katsuki Bakugou and Melissa Shield.

Canon
Melissa and Katsuki first meet in the first movie My Hero Academia: Two Heroes, although they had no interactions whatsoever. In their first meet, however, she asks why he is so angry. During the assault on I-Island, the 1-A students, especially Katsuki, work together to help I-Island from Wolfram's crew. In the Chapter 3 of the spin-off Team-Up Missions, in which Melissa makes an appearance again after the movie, Katsuki is among the audience used to spectate the inventions she and Mei Hatsume made. It can be noted that despite them appearing together, they almost never interacted. They are blond-hair people, and both have a great admiration towards All Might, only that Melissa have a special personal to him due to her father, David is All Might's best friend. Katsuki and Melissa has a different way of justice, since Melissa doesn't have a quirk but desires to study and get more knowledges to help other people with science just like his dad as the way she could be a hero, and Katsuki due he has a rather explosive quirk, he always tries to kill the enemy first and then check on his colleagues, but although he actually does care and gets worried about his partners even he doesn't shows it openly.

Melissa is a very energetic and kind woman who tries her best to help and always tries to cheer up others, while Katsuki is also energetic, but he is rather rude, loudmouth who somehow treats everyone like they're inferior to him. Melissa after meeting Izuku's class she wanted to know all their names and tried unlike Katsuki that he doesn't know their names and often calls them by nicknames he makes at the moment,but is quite intelligent since he does know everyone's quirk from their class.

Fanon
BakuMeli is considered a rare pairing, as they both have little to no interactions in the movie nor the spin-off. It is also due to the existence of Melissa, who only appeared in the said movie and spin-off and many members of the fandom only watching the main anime. However, it is one of the top ships for Melissa other than its rivals DekuMeli and the femslash ship MeiLissa. It rivals other popular ships such as KiriBaku and Kacchako for Katsuki, and the mentioned ships for Melissa.

They can be portrayed as hero and support hero, much like the het ship IzuMei, which eventually causes them to grow closer to romance. It can also be portrayed similarly to canon, much like its other rivalling ships.

BakuGara
 BakuGaru is the slash ship between Katsuki Bakugou and Togaru Kamakiri.

Canon
Due to their differing classes (Katsuki in 1-A. Togaru in 1-B), Togaru and Katsuki do not interact commonly, especially with the lack of screen-time for the students of Togaru’s class, and for the fact that Katsuki is usually seen with Eijiro (and to a lesser degree, Denki) when 1-B does make an appearance, or simply, is not an area to come across him, much less interact with him.

Katsuki and Togaru are placed on opposing teams for their Battle Trials, with the respective members of Kyoka, Rikido and Hanta on Katsuki’s team, and Tokage, Bondo and Yosetsu on Togaru’s. Mid-fight, Togaru jumps out of hiding towards an unsuspecting Kyoka to attack her with his blades. Before he can get her, Katsuki notices him, and thinks to himself that “nobody beats him (me) when it comes to speed.”

He kicks Kyoka to push her to safety, and uses an explosion to push Togaru back. As the smoke clears, Togaru gives him an incredulous look, and it’s seen that he blocked the most of Katsuki’s explosion with the defense provided by his blades. At this, Katsuki says “Blocked my blast, huh. I guess bugs (Togaru’s quirk gives him the likeness of a bug) do have quick reflexes!” Katsuki detonates another, stronger explosion at Togaru, who then takes this as an opportunity to retreat, realizing that it’s not smart to attempt to take Katsuki on directly. Later, Katsuki is shown as he performs a move of his, dubbed ‘Explode-A-Pult’, which smashes Togaru into a nearby wall, and allows his teammates to ‘capture’ him. The match ends with the victory of Katsuki’s team after Tokage is defeated.

Fanon
Katsuki and Togaru look incredibly different, being that Togaru looks like a literal insect, but their personalities are just the same, in brief reflection. Both are notably volatile, or angry people by nature, and often voice as such. Such similar personalities allow for a sort of connection, or understanding of each other, given the shared sense of emotions. Enjoyers of the pairing like to consider the two helping one another work through, or simply cope with their rage through this.

Another trait, as fans just seem to be this way, is undeniably the height difference between the boys. What can be inferred to be the outcome of the physical mutations from his quirk have Togaru standing 17 centimeters (about 6.7 inches) above Katsuki, who reaches no more, no less than the height of a typical boy of his age.

EraserDeku
 EraserDeku is the family ship between Izuku Midoriya and Aizawa Shouta. AKA: Aideku, Aizawadeku, Aiizu, Aidoriya

Canon
Izuku Midoriya goes to UA High School, his main homeroom teacher being Shota Aizawa. At first, Shota had his doubts about Izuku passing the Hero course, but after seeing him channel his power and eventually have complete control over One for All.

Aizawa often views Izuku as a problematic student due to his actions and behavior throughout the seasons and arcs. He is infamous for following his heart (but also relies on his logic) as he decides to charge into a fight. Aizawa begins to look at Izuku this way from Episode 5, season 1 where the teen tries to use his quirk on his whole hand during the ball throw.

​​​​​Shota has proven to be very vocal and unafraid when expressing his ideas. He often is straight to the point when dealing with Izuku, stating how the boy's trouble is bothersome and will get him hurt. is one main example in which Shota is almost fed up and disappointed at how Izuku constantly injures and beats up his body.

Shota cares for Izuku a bit more than the other students, seeing as Izuku is his most problematic student and often surprises him.

Quotes
"No good hero is a one trick pony."

- Shota, to Izuku.

"I'm watching you. If you act again, we'll go by the formal procedures this time around, Midoriya. Got it, problem child?"

- Shota, to Izuku.

Fanon
In the Eastern fanbase, it is shipped and loved even though being quite a complicated ship and relationship. Some parts of the Western fanbase are comfortable with it, but most are quite uncomfortable with it due to the Teacher-Student relationship and age gap. However, this discourse does not hinder those who love the interactions and relationship between the two, and neither does it stop others from shipping it.

Most EraserDeku fans started shipping the two from Episode 5, but it began to grow after the Forest Training Camp Arc.

EraserDeku fans often write fics, draw art or create content, for the duo, in angst, fluff, slow burn, time travel, or soulmate AU tags. On AO3, EraserDeku has are 193+ works and counting.

EraserMight
 EraserMight is the slash ship between Shota Aizawa and Toshinori Yagi.

Canon
Not much is known of their past, but due to their contrasting personalities, they do not get along very well. Shota disliking heroes that lap up the media spotlight being a major point of contention. Toshinori and Shota also frequently disagree with teaching methods, with Toshinori criticizing Shota's harsher attitude towards their students. Nevertheless, the two do show mutual respect for each other and their abilities, and both being willing to risk their personal safety to protect the other such as in the Unforeseen Simulation Joint Arc. Over the course of the series, Shota and All Might's relationship appears to have gotten a little better, particularly after All Might's retirement. Shota counseled with All Might regarding their job to have students enter the dormitories. The two also offered to buy each other a drink, indicating they are both willing to socialize together casually.

FaTama
 FaTama is the slash ship between Tamaki Amajiki and Taishiro Toyomitsu.

Canon
Tamaki and Fat Gum have a teacher-student relationship and whenever Tamaki works as a hero, he can be seen talking or fighting alongside Fat Gum, showing that he is always working at his agency. Although their personalities are opposite, they show great teamwork and complement each other.

Tamaki seems to perceive his working relationship with Fat Gum a little more negatively due to his negative personality, but despite those thoughts in his mind, Tamaki never left his agency and does not seem uncomfortable fighting side-by-side with Fat Gum, except when he talks about his fragile mentality or when he compliments him during or after a fight.

Fat Gum thinks highly of Tamaki and sees great potential in him, he is also seen constantly praising his abilities for being above most professional heroes and complimenting him on his attacks and maneuvers. Fat Gum is also direct and honest with Tamaki when he has to be and realizes Tamaki's flaws and weaknesses and what he has to improve on, such as his shy personality. But Fat Gum is shown to care deeply for Tamaki when he is in danger or when he is put under a lot of pressure, behaving like a father or older brother to Tamaki and seeing the efforts he had to go through to perfect his Quirk.

Although I know it is still unknown how they met, if he knows that at some point Fat Gum hired Tamaki to work in his agency and one day Tamaki recommended Eijiro Kirishima to work in his agency, surprising Fat Gum, but quickly accepting Eijiro at his agency, showing that he trusts Tamaki's judgment.

Fat Gum is seen for the first time in history alongside Tamaki and Eijiro while on patrol in a nearby city. After Fat Gum finishes talking to Eijiro, he tells Tamaki that he needs to fix his terrible mentality as he has a lot of potential, which emphasizes Tamaki a bit. Tamaki says that he thinks the only reason Fat Gum chose him as an intern was to torment him and calls it workplace bullying, but Eijiro assures Tamaki that Fat Gum was only trying to encourage him.

Before they could continue their conversation, a group of criminals appear and Fat Gum jumps in to catch them. Fat Gum catches them with his fat, but one of them escapes and is quickly caught by Tamaki's tentacles. When the criminals are handed over to the police, Eijiro congratulates Tamaki and Fat Gum tells him that Tamaki's Quirk has already surpassed many professional heroes and that the only thing he should focus on changing is his fragile mentality, while Tamaki was paralyzed by the crowd of civilians who congratulated them.

Fanon
FaTama is mostly loved inside and outside of Japan and is sent despite being a teacher and student relationship. Unlike other Ships like EraserDeku, some fans have no problem shipping them because their ages and height don't differ much.

Mostly those who send them like their opposite personalities and compare them to other Tamaki Ships and are amused by their funny and mocking dynamic on the Fat Gum side, but what they like the most is the fact that despite their differences they get along good and the more moments you have the more they start to send them.

GrapeFrog
 GrapeFrog is the het ship between Tsuyu Asui and Minoru Mineta.

Canon
In terms of canon, Asui is arguably the girl that Mineta is closest to in Class 1-A, with the two teaming up on numerous occasions, such as during the USJ incident, and the cavalry battle. Despite being disgusted by Mineta's frequently perverted behaviour and usually slapping him with her tongue when he makes inappropriate remarks, she has been impressed numerous times by Mineta's keen intellect, such as his successful strategy to lure Midnight away from escape gate to rescue Sero and pass the exam, his strategy to hide himself, and Tsuyu herself on Shoji's back during the sports festival, and his successful usage of his quirk during the USJ incident, where he saved her and Izuku Midoriya from the incoming villains, earning her praise in almost all of these scenarios.

Fanon
In fanon, GrapeFrog shippers usually include the ship in fanfiction involving Mineta redeeming himself and outgrowing his perverted tendencies, with Asui helping him to do so.

GrapeFrog is not a very popular ship, as Mineta is arguably the most hated character amongst the My Hero Academia fandom due to his perverted nature, and that Asui is more frequently shipped with Tokoyami, Uraraka, Izuku, and even Toga.

Yoichi was incredibly grateful to the second user for rescuing him, going so far as to call him his hero. Because of this, Yoichi chose the second user to inherit One For All and fight against All For One.

Fanon
Although the ship is considered a rarepair due to them being recently introduced in the manga, it is a ship parallel to BakuDeku, an already popular ship, from appearances to ideals.

InaCamie
 InaCamie is the het ship between Inasa Yoarashi and Camie Utsushimi

Canon
While Shoto is deep in his thoughts, Inasa shows up, greeting him and Katsuki with "Heyyy, UA!", Shoto still keep his frown and thoughts to himself; "Definitely didn't want to deal with him..." before Camie shows up from behind Inasa, asking Inasa who's this (Shoto), "What a specimen", saying that she's awestruck, really, thinking that it's a delight getting to take the course with a handsome man, she looks at Inasa and states that he seems to know 'this cutie', she introduces herself to Shoto and exchanges phone numbers with Shoto. Inasa, seeing them interacting, energetically said with a loud voice, saying that nobody beats Camie when it comes to playing the field, he could learn a thing or two! He seems to not realize that Camie is flirting, not doing some 'Wanna be friends?' thing.

After Gang Orca throws Inasa, Shoto and Katsuki, Camie stares at him being irritated with a clueless look.

KaiEri
 KaiEri is the friendship between Kai Chisaki and Eri Chisaki.

Canon
Both Eri and Chisaki are connected to the Yakuza because they are both relatives of the previous leader of the Shie Hassaikai, which makes them an adoptive family, since Eri is the leader's blood granddaughter and Chisaki his adopted son. Despite being familiar, Chisaki never cared for Eri and only used her for her experiments as a lab rat. Chisaki found out who Eri was after being instructed by the previous Shie Hassaikai leader to become her tutor and study her powers due to Eri's Quirk getting out of control and killing her father by accident. Despite being asked by the Yakuza leader to take care of her, Chisaki had no intention of helping her with her powers and upon learning of her rewind, Chisaki came up with a plan to create anti-Quirk drugs with Eri's blood and cells.

After Chisaki left the former Yakuza leader in a coma, Chisaki began to experiment with Eri and traumatize her for years physically and mentally by experimenting with her, leaving her with permanent scars and insulting and manipulating her frequently calling her a curse and that her existence only brought pain to her others. Because Eri was invaluable to her experiments, Chisaki did not allow Eri to escape and locked her away from the outside world and forced her to retreat whenever she tried to escape, robbing her of a normal childhood and knowledge of the outside world. Chisaki also allowed him luxuries, since in his room he had many unopened toys and a neat and beautiful bed. Another method with which he manipulated her was using the accidental death of her father against her and Eri knows his gestures perfectly, such as when Chisaki was taking off a glove in front of Mirio and Izuku, indicating that she was preparing to kill them.

When Eri was out in public, Chisaki avoids suspicions with people by pretending to be her father and calling her a "clumsy" and "misbehaved" girl, he also showed to be very possessive of Eri considering himself the only one who truly understands her power and saying that Eri belongs to him and his mission. When Izuku and Mirio took Eri away from him, Chisaki had rare outbursts of rage and insanity, quickly attacking both Students who had driven her away from her side and resorting to extreme methods that she would normally find disgusting only to get her back. After Eri was rescued by the heroes and the Shie Hassaikai had been destroyed, Chisaki fell into a depression as her dreams fell apart with the loss of Eri's rewind. While Eri was still traumatized by the traumas Chisaki inflicted on her and it took several weeks for her to smile after rescuing her before she could begin to live as a normal and cheerful child.

Fanon
Because of how Kai treated Eri as a means to accomplish his goal than the child that she is, fans don't strongly support this pairing and were glad when Eri was saved from him. A few Kai redemption fanfics and theories, however, have Kai wanting to atone for what he did to her. Usually, Kai is a hated character and Eri isn’t. Despite this fact, it hasn't fans from writing fanfics about the two or creating fanart and posts on them. At it helped to create the Dadhaul AU. It's an AU of Kai being a very good father for Eri, but it's not very popular considering how many people despises Kai, Even though the rest of the fanworks on the two reflects on how cruelly Kai treated Eri and her being saved from him.

KiriSero
 KiriSero is the slash ship between Eijiro Kirishima and Hanta Sero from the My Hero Academia fandom.

Canon
For their Battle Trial, Eijiro and Hanta are paired (together) on Team J as the villain team, against the hero team, Tsuyu and Fumikage (Team H). As the arc took an almost complete center around the sole fight of Tenya/Katsuki vs. Ochako/Izuku, the content of Eijiro and Hanta’s trial was minimal although the two are briefly shown protecting the target of the fight, a bomb. Hanta laces the bomb, as well as the area surrounding it with a web of his tape, while Eijiro stands guard in a ready position. The outcome of the trial remains unknown, as no further expansion is/was made.

After his work study with Best Jeanist, Katsuki finds that his hair is stuck in the flat, slicked down style Best Jeanist styled it in during their time together, and unfortunately has to attend class with it. As soon as they see it, Hanta and Eijiro both break out in cackles, simultaneously yelling “HOLY CRAP!! WHAT THE HECK, BAKUGOU?!” (in reference to his hair). Literally shaking from anger, Katsuki commands the two to stop laughing or he’ll ‘kill’ them. At this, Hanta teases, “I’d like to see you try, ‘Pretty Boy’!”, causing Katsuki to become so angry his hair somehow poofs back up to its regular spikes. Seeing this, the boys begin to laugh harder, until Katsuki captures them by the backs of their (uniform) blazers and drags them across the room. Hanta and Eijiro share a slightly remorseful glance between themselves as he does.

As he works up the ability to create Unbreakable, Eijiro flashes back to a day at the dorms; Eijiro speaks down on his quirk, as it lacks the flashy, long-range capabilities that Hanta and Katsuki have. Hanta takes the straw of his juicebox from his mouth to comment that it’s unlike Eijiro to be such a whiner, to which Eijiro replies to give him a break.

After Eijiro returns from his internship (alongside Ochako, Izuku, Tsuyu), he’s crowded by worried classmates. Hanta runs up and throws an arm around him in a side-hug, although his eye gets poked by a spikey tuff of Eijiro’s hair during the gesture. He asks why Eijiro and the others didn’t say what had been going on during their internships, and the he, as well as the rest of the class were concerned. Eijiro apologizes, as they were “sworn to secrecy”.

Fanon
KiriSero pales in comparison to the other popularized slash ships of the BakuSquad, more specifically KiriBaku (on Eijiro’s part) and KamiSero (on Hanta’s part). But the everlasting friendship between the boys is enough to make the ship known, and has sparked a number of fanworks, with 90+ works on AO3. Notably, many of the interactions between the two tend to center around the concept of teasing Katsuki (in a playful/friendly manner, which is something that commonly carries over to fanfiction.

KoSen
 KoSen is the slash ship between Kosei Tsuburaba and Sen Kaibara from the My Hero Academia fandom.

Canon
Sen Kaibara and Kosei Tsuburaba are seen together a number of times in the anime. They both appear a lot together in the Sports Festival. In the Sports Festival, they agreed to team up with each other. A few moments later, they both teamed up with Neito Monoma and Shihai Kuroiro. The boys agreed to follow Neito's plan to win. Neito and Kosei taunt Katsuki Bakugou, leading to Katsuki getting enraged and stealing their team's points. In the end, team Katsuki steals all team Neito's points and Neito's team loses.

Kosei and Sen appear quite a few times in the manga as well as the anime. When class 1-A and class 1-B were hanging out together, they both are seen sitting together in the background. The two boys are also both in the same internship, with Togaru Kamakiri. In volume 22 of the manga, it is stated that Kosei is one of the only people who can occasionally make Sen smile when he is out of his stoic persona.

Because the boys are background characters, they don't have a lot of screen time. However, when they have screen time, they are often seen together. The only time they got a lot of screen time together was in the Sports Festival.

Fanon
Since Kosei and Sen don't have a lot of screen time, and usually are only seen in the background, the ship isn't very popular. However, Kosen is surprisingly the most popular ship for both characters. On AO3, KoSen is the most written ship for both Kosei and Sen.

The ship gained its supporters when people began to realize that the two are rarely seen without one another, and grew in popularity by a bit when it was revealed that Kosei and Sen are best friends.

MiriDeku
 MiriDeku is the slash ship between Mirio Togata and Izuku Midoriya.

Canon
Izuku and Mirio meet by surprise before introducing the Gandes to Class 1-A, Izuku freaks out at Mirio's presence while Mirio just smiles at him and leaves. Izuku is reunited when the Big Three appear before Class 1.A and Izuku is impressed by Mirio's fighting skills.

After the surprise first impression, Mirio accepts Izuku to take his internships at the agency of his teacher, Sir Nighteye, who was once All Might's old assistant. All Might reveals to Izuku who Mirio is in U.A. and its fundamental role before they knew it: To be the original successor of the Symbol of Peace.

The relationship between Mirio and Izuku in the Academy and the Agency is that of Senpai-Kōhai, which in a short time, became stronger after adversity. During the Internships, Izuku and Mirio meet a girl named Eri with a rare and powerful quirk, who is the victim of a yakuza organization. The rescue of Eri and the destruction of the yakuza organization will be planned by several agencies of heroes with the support of the police, among the many agencies is that of Sir Nighteye with Izuku and Mirio as protagonists of the mission.

The mission turns out to be a bittersweet victory for the heroes because, despite the fact that the yakuzas are defeated and Eri is rescued, Sir Nighteye ends up mortally wounded and Mirio loses his quirk because he becomes the victim of a bullet that destroys the quirk. But despite everything that happened, Mirio maintains his trust in Izuku, despite the latter telling him repeatedly his desire to transfer the One for All to him and receiving a simple "No, Thank you" from Mirio.

Fanon
MiriDeku is a rather middle-known, but well-received ship in the My Hero Academia fandom. Since Izuku and Mirio are like brothers to Eri, MiriDeku shippers often headcanon Mirio and Izuku dating each other, while raising Eri together. However, MiriDeku is overshadowed by many Izuku ships, and MiriTama for Mirio. Izuku's more popular ships being, BakuDeku, IzuOcha, and TodoDeku. Nonetheless, MiriDeku still managed to get a good amount of shippers, mostly due to the friendship that the developed with each other in season 4. On AO3, the ship has 250+ fanfictions.

Monowase
 Monowase is the slash ship between Neito Monoma and Yosetsu Awase.

Canon
Neito and Yosetsu haven't interacted much, but they seem to be friends. Like most of his classmates, Yosetsu dislikes Neito's sarcastic and obnoxious personality, but he seems to tolerate him and keeps him in check when Itsuka Kendo is not around.

They were first seen together during their Class's preparations for the Cultural Festival. The two of them, along with Tetsutetsu, were making preparations for the Class 1-B play when they ran into Izuku Midoriya, Mirio Togata, and Eri. Neito starts teasing Midoriya and his class, before laughing maniacally. Yosetsu appears behind him with a large stick and knocks him out.

Once Neito was unconscious, Yosetsu slowly picked him up by the arm while apologizing for Neito's attitude, explaining that Neito was even more unbearable than usual since Itsuka was busy preparing for the beauty pageant and couldn't keep him in check. He then takes him back to his class while Tetsutetsu Tetsutetsu says goodbye to Midoriya.

Later before 1-B's play, Yosetsu and Tetsutetsu go along with Neito to check on Itsuka. Once there, Neito laughs and compliments Itsuka's outfit for the beauty pageant, explaining how he entered Itsuka in the first place and plans to overthrow 1-A. He begins laughing maniacally, and Tetsutetsu stares at Yosetsu whilst pointing at Neito as if asking him to do something. Yosetsu waves him off and lets it happen.

During 1-B's play, Yosetsu was behind Neito with Nirengeki Shoda as they performed. When the beauty pageant performances were over, Neito hopped on the stage and began yelling for everyone to vote for Itsuka. Yosetsu was left to hold him back and exclaim that she'd be disqualified for this.

During the Joint Training, Neito begins taunting the Class 1-A students. Yosetsu and Itsuka prepare to stop him, however Shoto Aizawa beats them to it and does so by strangling him. It upset Yosetsu to see Neito choking, showing that Yosetsu truly cares for him.

Fanon
Due to the little interactions shared between the two (and Class 1-B’s lack of screen-time), Monowase is not relatively popular within the MHA/BNHA fandom, and is thus considered a “rare-pair”. Additionally, it is overtaken by AwaMomo on Yosetsu’s part. However, it has gathered attention like any ship, and holds its own when it comes to choosing a (romantic) partner for Neito.

Setsugou
 Setsugou is the het ship between Setsuna Tokage and Katsuki Bakugou.

Canon
The two do not interact anywhere near often, due to being in separate classes. However, they do meet rather late in the series; Katsuki and Tokage are on opposing teams during the joint training battles, where their teams compete against one another in the fourth set of said training.

Before the match begins, Neito, albeit in a spiteful manner, states that he was excited to see the match turnout, as Tokage, a student entered in U.A. through recommendation (like Shoto and Momo) had been pit against Katsuki, and he firmly believes she would be the one to finally defeat the ever-powerful Katsuki in combat.

Later, at the battle start, Katsuki decides his ideal win strategy is to locate his opponents before they do him, and release a full-powered attack to seal victory. However, he greatly undermined Tokage’s quirk, and general strength, and ended up quickly found, and bombarded by her disembodied parts (Tokage’s quirk is Lizard, she can split her body into a total of 50 controllable pieces). Surprisingly, Katsuki struggles against her more than typically observed, as her split parts were too small for him to accurately target. He does manage to escape her in time to rescue Kyoka from Togaru’s blades, which gives Tokage the realization that she couldn’t defeat Katsuki as easily as she’d previously conceded. After this, she gives a brief rundown to her team about how to take down the others, her plan mains on targeting only Katsuki, as he is the only one with plans, and is the “leader” of his team. Unfortunately for her, as Katsuki had undermined her, she in turn undermined his newfound teamwork with his classmates, and ended up as the last one left of her group. Before Katsuki can deal the finishing blow on her, Tokage yells at him, “Why’d you have to go and change so much..” to which Katsuki replies, “I didn’t change, my goal has always been the same.. to defeat All Might and become the number one hero!”

Fanon
Due to the two being so separate, SetsuBaku is not particularly popular within the MHA/BNHA fanbase, and is thus listed as a “rare-pair”. However, like all rare-pairs do, it does have a decent following, thanks to the competitive, spitfire personalities of both Tokage and Katsuki, and the determination for victory the two share. Like the majority of 1-B students, with the exceptions of Tetsutetsu and Itsuka, for example, Tokage does not have too large of a shipping community, and thus, lacks rival ships on her part. When it comes to Katsuki, though he has arguably the largest base of fans, and rival ships, the largest ones being BakuDeku and KiriBaku.

After the cavalry battle is over and Shinso's team moves onto the next event, Ojiro resigns from the festival because he does not feel as like it was fair that he should be allowed to compete in the next event, since he has no memory of participating in the previous event.

Ojiro later warns Deku about Shinso's quirk because he doesn't approve of Shinso's method of winning.

During Shinso and Deku's battle, Shinso insults Ojiro by calling him a "monkey" and saying that he kept "going on about his pride" and "he was dumb for throwing away his chance."

In the manga, during the battles between 1-A and 1-B, Shinso reappears and Ojiro is shown to look irritated by his appearance. They do not officially interact, however.

Fanon
Though they don't have much interaction in canon, ShinOji seems to have a decent following within the fandom.

Most of their following comes from the idea of Shinso apologizing to Ojiro after the sports festival and eventually becoming friends with him.

With the 1-A & 1-B battle arc involving Shinso in the manga, the idea of them becoming rivals or sparring partners also became a popular idea.

Another idea within the fandom for this ship is their similar yet different personalities. Both are more on the side character side of the show, but as their personalities are shown Shinso is a tired type personality yet can be very tough when determined, on the other hand Ojiro is shown to be a very laid back character who can stay calm in most situations, while still maintaining a fighting spirit. They both can be very tough in their own was when it comes to being determined which is where the idea of their fun dynamic comes from.

An upside to both of these characters not being shown often, is that while we can see the base of their personality there's always room to develop fanon parts and explore more into these characters.

ShinRei
<div class="mw-collapsible mw-collapsed" data-expandtext="show" data-collapsetext="hide" style="width:100%"> ShinRei is the het ship between Hitoshi Shinso and Reiko Yanagi from the My Hero Academia fandom.

Canon
Reiko and Hitoshi are not seen together commonly, due to their differing classes (Reiko in 1-B, Hitoshi in 1-C). However, they do have a few select moments throughout the course of the series, and can be seen together in the background on occasion when the first years are gathered. Notably, both share a somewhat eerie, almost ‘zombie-like’ appearance, both being rather pale in complexion, Reiko’s sleepy expressions and habit of holding her arms out (like a horror movie zombie!), and Hitoshi’s consistent tired looks with heavy, prominent eyebags. Without many previous interactions, Hitoshi and Reiko are paired (alongside Nirengenki, Neito and Yui) against the team of Izuku, Ochako, Mina, and Minoru for the 5th, and final set of the Joint Battles. The two gather with their other teammates, and as a whole, discuss the best strategy to lead themselves to a win against 1-A.

Nirengenki says that since the entirety of the 1-A team has quirks less suited to attack, and more of strategy/technicality, they should take a similar, tactical approach against the enemy. Ever the goth, Reiko adds that Izuku will be the one 'haunting' them the most. Hitoshi expresses confusion over the meaning of this phrase, to which Nirengenki answers that it's her way of saying Izuku would be hardest to defeat. Hitoshi agrees with her in further detail, that they should definitely prioritize Izuku. The battle turns out with Hitoshi being the main one to go against Izuku, with the backup of Reiko’s Poltergeist to move objects towards their other opponents who they consider less of a danger to their win (Mina, Ochako, Minoru), and later, Yui’s Size to enlarge potential projectiles. Unfortunately, this doesn’t prove to be enough to defeat the 1-A team, and the team loses the match. However, it becomes a given that Hitoshi’s performance is enough to bring him into the hero course (from general studies) in his second year at U.A, and potentially in 1-B like Reiko.

Fanon
ShinRei is a ‘rare-pair’ in the MHA/BNHA fandom due to the combination of their lack of screen-time, and interactions together, which brings less to guess on how Hitoshi and Reiko would act together, much less how they would behave in a relationship. However, the similarities between the two, more specifically their ‘spooky’ attributes and tiredness bring attention to the couple, and of course, shipping potential.

The ship has about 20 fics on AO3, and is Reiko’s most written pairing.

SogaDabi
<div class="mw-collapsible mw-collapsed" data-expandtext="show" data-collapsetext="hide" style="width:100%"> SogaDabi is the slash ship between Soga Kugizaki and Toya "Dabi" Todoroki.

Canon
The two have never canonically interacted due to being from separate entries of the series, the Vigilantes spin-off and main series, respectively. Additionally, both are somewhat opposites in terms of their occupations, Dabi being a villain and Soga being a vigilante and former Instant Villain.

Fanon
The ship is considered a rarepair due to its existence being unnoticed and has appeared only recently. As well as that, the existence of Soga from My Hero Academia: Vigilantes or the spin-off itself is almost not known by many who are fans of the main series due to its mainstream. There seem to be very few people who ship this pairing in the entirety of the My Hero Academia community.

It is also outshined by other more mainstream pairings on Dabi's side; Hot Wings and ShigaDabi.

In some way or another, Soga and Dabi share some similarities, as both are (or were in Soga's case) Villains who are antagonistic to the main characters, both are mentally unstable, both shows empathy for their comrades, both suffered trauma that relates to their Quirks (Soga who suffered due to being referred to as a monster for his Quirk and Dabi working to the point of scarring himself with his Quirk to be acknowledged by his father). Fans like to think that they both try to cope with their problems in terms of mental health.

Soga and Dabi, despite never having met, are acquainted to the same person, with Dabi being with the League of Villains and later the Paranormal Liberation Army, lead by Tomura Shigaraki, All for One's pupil, while Soga and Koichi, along with their allies are fighting Number 6, who operated the Villain Factory, a request from All for One, which was also what caused Soga to initially be an Instant Villain at the time. Overall, they are both revealed to be somehow connected despite never meeting before.

Other portrayals show Dabi and Soga taking therapy lessons to heal from their mental state, both meeting in this way somehow, an AU where Soga is still antagonistic to Koichi Haimawari, Kazuho Haneyama, and Iwao Oguro and somehow encounters Dabi and both eventually fall in love. This can also apply to a portrayal of Soga meeting the Todoroki family, which include other ships with the Todoroki family, such as EnjiRei, TodoMomo, TodoDeku, Huwumi, or other pairings that include them.

Another thing fans have noticed was the height difference between the two, Soga being the tallest as he measures 182cm (5/11⅝"), which is 6 centimeters taller than Dabi, who measures 176cm (5'9¼"). Some fans were slightly disappointed by the confirmed height difference.

Trivia

 * Their ship name, PorcuSnake, references them being a porcupine and a snake, in respective order. In Horikoshi's Volume 30 character page, Dabi has been depicted as a snake, while Soga has been depicted as a porcupine in the Vigilantes manga.

TamaBaku
<div class="mw-collapsible mw-collapsed" data-expandtext="show" data-collapsetext="hide" style="width:100%"> TamaBaku is the slash ship between Katsuki Bakugo and Tamaki Amajiki from the My Hero Academia fandom.

Canon
Katsuki and Tamaki do not know each other and have not been seen together or speaking in Manga canon because when the Big Three appeared before the Class 1-A students, Katsuki was still being punished for his fight against Izuku.

However Tamaki seems to know who Katsuki is thanks to Kirishima. In School Briefs vol.4 Kirishima and Tamaki were patrolling and they mention the fight between Izuku and Katsuki Bakugo the other day and then Kirishima starts sharing Katsuki characteristics with Tamaki and says that Katsuki is just the type of guy to tell you how he really feels and be honest with himself.

During the filler Episode of Season 5, the students of Class 1-A are in a training exercise in which Tamaki and Nejire acted as villains against Class 1-A while Mirio acted as Civilian in distress. After Tamaki defeats Izuku, Kirishima, Katsuki and Denki appear and Tamaki and Katsuki briefly face each other (being their first interaction in the Anime) until Tamaki is scared of Katsuki's angry face and Katsuki takes advantage of this to derive it.

Despite the victory of Class 1-A in the drill and the congratulations of his teammates for taking down Tamaki, Katsuki still about Tamaki, says that he hasn't finished yet and Tamaki is surprised as Katsuki angrily tells him that he held back on him. Before Tamaki could answer him that his angry face scared him, Katsuki yells not to underestimate him and even if he was acting like a Villain, he is a Villain and is his enemy and then put his hand on Tamaki's face and throw a big explosion, while Tamaki with tears in his eyes says internally that he should have gone home.

Fanon
TamaBaku is amongst the rarest of pairs due to their lack of interactions, and the absolute difference between them. However, a few fans have found their potential dynamic interesting enough to work, and commonly portray them as meeting through Kirishima.

A popular headcanon among TamaBaku and KiriBaku fans is for Bakugo to be jealous of Tamaki's closeness to Kirishima and ignore or confront and fight Tamaki about it. Sometimes the headcanons usually end with Bakugo realizing that Kirishima was never in love with Tamaki or fixing things with Tamaki and befriending him and finding out that there was no romance between Tamaki and Kirishima.

Some fans speculate that in the future, Bakugo and Tamaki will work together as Izuku, Bakugo, and Shoto are considered to be U.A.'s next The Big Three and Izuku and Shoto have already worked with Mirio and Nejire at some point. The theories have been made on the basis that some fans have realized that Izuku and Shoto have already interacted and fought side by side together with a member of The Big Three in long and important arcs (Izuku together with Mirio during the Shie Hassaikai Arc and Shto alongside Nejire in Paranormal Liberation War Arc) and suspect that Bakugo and Tamaki will interact and fight side by side in a possible major arc of the manga.

TamaDeku
<div class="mw-collapsible mw-collapsed" data-expandtext="show" data-collapsetext="hide" style="width:100%"> TamaDeku is the slash ship between Izuku Midoriya and Tamaki Amajiki.

Canon
Izuku hasn't interacted with Tamaki as much as with Mirio, but they seem to be on good terms. Izuku and Tamaki met when the Big Three appeared before the Class 1-A students, though they did not interact or speak due to Tamaki's shyness towards the students. When Mirio challenges the Class 1-A students to a fight, Tamaki is in the corner watching the fight and Tamaki is seen listening as Izuku gathers some of his classmates together to form a strategy to counter Mirio before they are taken down, despite their determination.

They meet again when Sir Nighteye makes a meeting where Izuku, Tamaki and other Heroes met to talk about the Yakuza. When Fat Gum reveals that Tamaki was shot by a Quirk-Destroying Drug, Izuku shows a worried face as Mirio asks Tamaki if he's okay. During the operation against the Shie Hassaikai and the rescue of Eri, Izuku was shocked when Tamaki wanted to stay behind to fight three of the eight bullets and Tamaki asked Izuku to take care of Mirio because he could act recklessly. After Izuku fights Chisaki, Tamaki along with other Heroes watch Eri's Quirk spiral out of control and start hurting Izuku.

During the filler chapter of Season 5, the students of Class 1-A are in a training exercise in which Tamaki and Nejire acted as villains against Class 1-A while Mirio acted as Civilian in danger. Izuku despite having the opportunity to hit Tamaki and knowing that he was only acting like a villain, refused to hit him and hugged him and asked him to surrender (being the only one who did not try to hurt Tamaki). When Tamaki asked Izuku why he didn't hit him, Izuku replies that he didn't dare hurt him.

Quotes
"Please take care of Mirio!. He's definitely going to try too hard, so please help him."

TenFuyu
<div class="mw-collapsible mw-collapsed" data-expandtext="show" data-collapsetext="hide" style="width:100%"> TenFuyu is the het ship between Tensei Iida and Fuyumi Todoroki from the My Hero Academia fandom.

Canon
The two came from both respective family, family of heroes (Iida Family that are already have heroes ancestors and Todoroki Family have the Number One Hero as the head of the family). The two also have a younger sibling, youngest brother to be specific, that are a hero-in-training, Tenya Iida and Shoto Todoroki and they're in the same class, Class 1-A. Their younger brothers are also close friends, of course, they're close is technically also because of Tensei, being attacked by Stain so Tenya planned revenge and then Izuku Midoriya and Shoto rescues him. The two shares the same helpful and kind personalities, and the two have a feeling of regret that also involving their younger brother (Tensei have a feeling of regret that he couldn't be "Ingenium" who runs fast and apologizes to Tenya for disappointing his brother after Stain attacked him while Fuyumi have the feeling that she "couldn't do anything for Shoto" remains in her heart. This is also what inspired her to become a teacher, as she felt that she couldn’t protect her youngest brother).

Tensei is a strong leader, which has been displayed on multiple occasions. He carefully directed Team Idaten to a location on the Naruhata district highway to place a safety blockade in order to trap the Bat Villain. Tensei was even able to calm the passengers that were onboard the bus that the Monster Cat had overshadowed, and instructed Team Idaten to match the speed of the amalgamated entity so that they can prepare for the transfer of the passengers. When one of the riders expressed concern over transferring people at a high speed, Tensei assured him and the other commuters that his new recruit, Enigma, is a reliable source for the extraction. When one rider was still inside of the Monster Cat, Tensei advised Koichi to stay close behind him, while at the same time, Tensei himself moves ahead and Koichi avoids combat and reckless locomotion, meanwhile Fuyumi, as a teacher, an elementary school teacher to be exact, of course she need the ability to lead her students. That means the two have leadership skills.

The two are kind-hearted person who cares deeply for their family, Fuyumi took on a nurturing role for her younger brother, Shoto, during their mother, Rei's absence and Tensei is the one who motivates Tenya to be a hero, and When he was joyful when he knew that his younger brother admired his work as a pro hero as a result of him taking up the hero mantle of his family, his image for himself was that he wanted to 'be cool' and be the type of hero that helps others when they are in need of help

Fanon
The fan paired them due to the close relationship of Shoto and Tenya, and likes the idea of them being surprised when the two marries each other. Some fics also put that Shoto is the one who matchmake them or Tenya is the one who matchmake them, because of the 'My bro's brother gotta marry my sister' trope

Canon
During the USJ attack, the group splitted out from the other students from the class and so the four were ready for fight them, but then All Might arrives at the place at just the right moment and dealt with the LoV by himself. All Might then gets cornered by Shigaraki and Kurogiri, moments later Midoriya jumps to the scene preventing All Might from getting killed by Shigaraki by using his quirk, which he can't control it yet in that time. And before noticing, he was already in the LoV's hand, with him almost dying while Bakugo, Todoroki, and Kirishima were contemplating the scene. But then the other teachers arrive just in time thanks to Iida saving Izuku and so the LoV fled away from the place with Kurogiri's help before they could get absorbed by Thirteen.

During the Hideout Raid Arc, Kirishima and Todoroki are seen together walking to the hospital looking for Midoriya, which had a mental breakdown because of Bakugo's kidnapping by LoV, and when they finally got to see him with the small amount of students reunited there, Todoroki told Midoriya about Bakugo's situation of the case. Midoriya then finally regains his consciousness by Todoroki's words and Kirishima then cheers Midoriya up by saying that they would save him along with him too. Throughout the Bakugo's rescue mission, Midoriya creates a plan in which Kirishima and Todoroki would be involved, which consisted on Todoroki impulsing Midoriya, Iida, and Kirishima with his ice so with Midoriya's quirk they would impulse themselves to the air and so catching Bakugo in midair. Midoriya then picks Kirishima for rescuing Bakugo, since he was the first friend Bakugo did when he got into U.A, and so, they made on rescuing him thanks to Midoriya's plan and with Bakugo's support in the plan.

While the group don't all interact together because Todoroki uses to be more with Midoriya and Bakugo with Kirishima, Izuku and Eijiro are the ones who had changed Todoroki and Bakugo respectively, with Midoriya making Todoroki accept his left side which succeeded during the Sports Festival, and Kirishima supporting and respecting Bakugo, but telling him that he had to change too. While Kirishima and Izuku are cheerful, Bakugo and Todoroki tend have a rude personality sometimes, paralleling their personalities with their best friends.

Fanon
The ship sailed as result of the most popular ships (TodoDeku and KiriBaku) being mixed in one, although those who don't like both TodoDeku and KiriBaku would prefer TodoBaku and KiriDeku or BakuDeku and TodoKiri while being mixed in one ship. They're usually portrayed together in original artworks. Fans would also prefer adding Shinso in the ship because of Midoriya's kindness and rivalry towards him, creating ShinTodoBakuKiriDeku. Some take it to the next level and add Uraraka, creating TodoKiriShinBakuDekuraka.

In artworks, the group are seen hanging out together to different places, or doing different activities all together, they also tend to wingman the other ship which is in TodoDeku's case wingmanning KiriBaku, and in other times the other way around.

On AO3 the ship currently has 310 fanfics.

Canon
They don't have lots of interactions together because Ochako tends to spend more with Tsuyu Asui and other of her classmates rather more than Shoto, meanwhile she uses to interact more with Izuku when she's with him. However, the three of them do share a moment in the My Hero Academia: Two Heroes movie.

Meanwhile Ochako was dealing with some of Wolfram's bots and after being saved by Katsuki, Todoroki asks Ochako if she was fine, after Ochako confirmed Shouto's question, she pointed him out that Izuku and Melissa were on troubles in midair. Shouto then goes for rescue as he used his fire for making warm air to the fan where Izuku and Melissa were going to crash, impulsing them to the opposite side saving them and also giving them a hand so Midoriya and Melissa could react David and Wolfram. As they were saved by Shouto's quirk, Midoriya thanked him internally.

Despite of the three not interacting equally, something that they share is that they're all part of the Dekusquad, along with their other friends Iida, and Tsuyu, with sometimes Bakugo. Ochako and Todoroki are also part of Dekubowl, as both were helped and saved by Izuku itself.

Fanon
TodoIzuOcha is a popular polyship among the fans who ship IzuOcha and TodoDeku at the same time, and had created the ship. However, the ship itself isn't as known as TodoBakuDeku or HimiTsuChako, this is because of the constant fights between both IzuOcha and TodoDeku shippers. The ship can be portrayed as a one-sided crush on both Shouto and Ochako, though Ochako's crush is canon while Todoroki's crush on Izuku isn't confirmed, and hasn't shown any signs of it yet.

Some fanarts could portray Ochako accepting Todoroki's crush on Izuku and that the two of them would be whether good friends as both having the same love interest. In other fan arts Ochako can be shown jealous on Todoroki for being the most closest to Midoriya, making them as love rivals. However the ship itself doesn't really have a big fanbase but known ones such as Twitter and Tumblr.

Ochako, Todoroki, and Izuku only share one trait, with the three being "pure" according to fans, and that they would rather ship TodoIzuOcha in the cute, soft, and fluffy way rather than a sexual and abusive one. Shouto can be pure, because of his innocent way of thinking, taking Mt. Lady's interview as an example when she told Shouto that his smile would kill lots of girls, and Shouto took it way too serious, being worried that his smile would, literally, kill all of the girls around the world. Ochako is also pure because, besides of her cute design, her behavior and innocent crush on Izuku, though she sometimes can have a scary and "badass" side taking Bakugo vs Ochako's fight as an example. Finally, with Izuku, according to fans he's a pureful guy who, even being a grown kid, he was still being and looking like a baby and they would still find Izuku's admiration for All Might as cute, and sometimes they compare him with a cinnamon roll or a broccoli.

Canon
Shoto and Nejire have not interacted directly, but apparently they have a good relationship and a great capacity for teamwork. The first time they spoke was when the Big Three introduced themselves to the students from Class 1-A. When Nejire first met Shoto she invasively asked him personal questions, and about how he got his scar which made him uneasy. She expressed interest and familiarity upon seeing him, to later be distracted with the other students.

During the Paranormal Liberation War, following Nejire and Tenya's arrival on the battlefield, she and Shoto effectively teamed up against a weakened Tomura Shigaraki. Nejire blast the villain from Shoto and he showed faith that the two of them could defeat him. They later combined their super special moves⁏ Jet Kindling and Nejire Flood, in an effort to defeat him, showing deep teamwork and determination. When Endeavor was in shock upon finding out Dabi's identity, Shoto proclaimed he and Nejire would fight, further showing his confidence in their teamwork. After Dabi burns Nejire, Shoto frantically yells her name in concern. This would prompt him to directly challenge the villain.

Fanon
Despite being a rarepair, this ship is seen as unique by the fandom. Nejire showing immediate interest and enthusiasm upon seeing Shoto can be seen as the starting potential for a ship. Their teamwork during the Paranormal Liberation War Arc suggests comparability between them. Shoto being distraught after seeing Nejire burned by Dabi and attacking him afterward can be seen as showing how much he cares about her. Further, this brings Nejire into the conflict between the two siblings, giving her more of a personal connection to Shoto. It is seen as an opposite attracts pairing as Nejire's outgoing attitude would help Shoto socialize more. She would also have numerous questions about his quirk, which would amuse him.

Canon
Shoto and Hitoshi are not seen together commonly, due to their differing classes (Shoto in 1-A, Hitoshi in 1-C) and Hitoshi's 'hatred' towards the Hero Course Students, mainly 1-A. But in the Joint Battle Training, Hitoshi get into the 1'st team (Hitoshi, Denki, Eijirou, Tsuyu and Koji) and 5'th team (Hitoshi, Neito, Rei, Nirengeki and Yui). Meanwhile, Shoto is on the 3'rd team (Shoto, Tenya, Mashirao and Mezo). So they didn't get the chance to speak with each other. Only Shoto, who listens to Hitoshi's speech.

Fanon
The fans love this since the Season 5 aired and Hanta points out that Hitoshi is an Early'Roki. That nickname means that Hitoshi's mindset is the same like Shoto's mindset in the past, but still, since they got literally no interactions, this ship is one of the so called a 'rare-pair's in the show. The rival ships of this is ShinDeku on Hitoshi's side and TodoDeku on Shoto's side, together they become a poly ship called TodoShinDeku. The fandom pictures them like when Hitoshi says about he's there not to become friends, Shoto told him that he also experience that phase but the next day, he 'got roped into a 3 AM McDonalds run which led into a run-in with the police', which that means that he got soften out.

<div class="mw-collapsible mw-collapsed" data-expandtext="show" data-collapsetext="hide" style="width:100%"> TodoShoji is the slash ship between Shoto Todoroki and Mezo Shoji.

Canon
Mezo and Shoto are assigned to Team B for their Battle Trials, to fight as the ‘hero’ team against Team I, which consisted of Toru and Mashirao. As they roam the battlegrounds, Mezo uses his Dupliarms to create a number of extra ears, as to make scoping out their opponents easier, and eventually locates them on the fourth floor of the building, and adds that the two are most likely barefoot, with Toru attempting to ambush them. After gaining this information, Shoto calmly asks Mezo to exit the building “for his safety.”

Once Mezo leaves, Shoto uses his right side to release a complete coat the building with his ice, freezing both their opponent’s shoeless feet to the ground, and sealing his and Mezo’s victory in the trial. Afterwards, Shoto uses his left side to first free Mashirao, and then unfreeze the rest of the ice-coated building, but not without taunting Mashirao on the difference of strength between the two of them. After cleaning up, Shoto exits the building. As he does, Mezo is shown as he watches him in amazement.

During the Training Camp, the students fall under attack by the LoV, who make it apparent that a main target of the event is Katsuki, or rather, to kidnap him. Shoto and Mezo both manage to group near Katsuki, and make a shared effort alongside Izuku and Fumikage to protect Katsuki. However, they end up unsuccessful after Katsuki is sneakily nabbed by Mr. Compress, and unable to be grabbed to safety. They, alongside the others express great disappointment in having failed.

Fanon
Due to their lack of interactions, and more popular ships of TodoDeku and TokoShoji, TodoShoji is not particularly popular in the MHA/BNHA fandom, but as the two are both commonly read as MLM, regardless of the ship, as well as their quiet personalities, the two are seen as reasonable love interests for one another, thus bringing the pairing decent attention.

Himiko and Tsuyu meet in the forest when the League of Villains attacks the camp and Himiko confronts Tsuyu and Ochaco. After Tsuyu drives Ochaco away from Himiko's attack, Himiko attacks Tsuyu with her knife and hears Ochaco calling Tsuyu by his first name. Himiko smiles upon hearing Ochaco call Tsuyu by her name and decides to do the same while claiming that she wants to be his friend.

Tsuyu is upset that Himiko called her by her first name as that is something only her close friends can do, and before she can react, Himiko pushes her towards a tree and approaches flushed to look at the blood that comes out of Tsuyu's tongue from her attack. After Ochaco saves Tsuyu from Himiko, the League of Villains leaves the camp and Himiko confesses to the League that she made some friends, while when the boys ask Tsuyu and Ochaco who Himiko was, Tsuyu only tells them that she was a lunatic.

Fanon
TogaTsuyu isn't really popular due to the two not actually meeting other than the fight in the forest. Many fans think it's abusive or toxic due to Toga's bloodlust and so don't ship it. Although some people think that the ship has potential, like in TogaDeku's case, many believe that TogaTsuyu would be the perfect ship in Tsuyu villain AU's. The ship is often overshadowed by Togaraka, TogaDeku, TsuChako, TokoTsuyu, and more ships.

Canon
Kyoka and Tsuyu do not interact all too much, due to their closer friendships with Momo and Ochako respectively. However, all the girls of 1-A seem to be notably close with one another, and Kyoka and Tsuyu aren’t an exception from this. The two both held a disdain for Katsuki upon first impression, stemming from the lack of mercy he portrayed upon Ochako during his and her fight during the Sports Festival. They comment to one another that their matchup was easily the ‘most disturbing’, and later, as Ochako becomes progressively more beat-up, that they felt pity for their friend, and couldn’t bear to continue watching. However, the message Katsuki simply treated her as equal later becomes one that both admire.

After the class breaks apart, Tsuyu and Kyoka, alongside Momo and Mezo, manage to gather/regroup. The four end up encountering a group of students from another hero high school, Seiai. A girl by the name of Saiko Intelli, alongside her ‘cronies’ discover the group as they enter the building they were occupying. Kyoka uses her earphone-jacks to listen through the walls for potential opponents, and deduces that there are four others. Ear-splittingly loud music is suddenly blasted through the wall Kyoka was listening through, which harms her, and knocks her to the ground. Tsuyu expresses concern at seeing Kyoka in pain.

Later, the four are trapped in a room by Saiko and the others. The room is set to become cold, which sends Tsuyu into a state of hibernation, due to her frog quirk. After figuring out a way to escape, the group realizes that they need to incapacitate their opponents; Momo creates an amplifier, which Kyoka uses to blast a piercing sound, which wakes Tsuyu from her slumber, and does as planned. They successfully manage to defeat, and escape, but Momo is left weak from her earlier creation (of the amplifier). Kyoka and Tsuyu help her to safety.

Fanon
Like Mina, Tsuyu and Kyoka are amongst the characters most heavily speculated to be LGBTQ, due to implication given by their heavy interest in their female classmates, and lack of interest in the males, which brings attention to not just enjoyer of femslash/yuri pairings, but those who hope to see same-sex couples in the series. While the friendship between the two is not particularly notable compared to others, they still interact sweetly enough to draw a decent fanbase.
