TogaTsuyu

TogaTsuyu is the femslash ship between Tsuyu Asui and Himiko Toga from the My Hero Academia fandom.

Canon
Tsuyu and Himiko have had minimal interactions, Himiko shows an interest in Tsuyu as soon as they meet, much as she did with Ochako Uraraka. She tries to befriend her, much to Tsuyu's annoyance. They first meet in the forest when the League of Villains attack the summer training camp. Himiko confronts Tsuyu and Ochako, but Tsuyu drives Ochako away from Himiko's attack. Himiko then attacks Tsuyu with her knife and hears Ochako calling Tsuyu by his first name. Himiko smiles upon hearing Ochako call Tsuyu by her name and decides to do the same while claiming that she wants to be her friend.

Tsuyu is upset that Himiko called her by her first name as that is something only her close friends can do. Before she can react, Himiko pushes her towards a tree and approaches to look at the blood that comes out of Tsuyu's tongue from her attack. After Ochako saves Tsuyu from Himiko, the League of Villains leaves the camp and Himiko confesses to the League that she made some friends. When the boys of 1-A ask Tsuyu and Ochako who Himiko was, Tsuyu only tells them that she was a lunatic.

Tsuyu and Himiko meet again during the Paranormal Liberation War. Tsuyu and Ochako separate to help save as many civilians at a time, and when they regroup Tsuyu learns that the civilian Ochako was helping was really Himiko in disguise. She arrives just in time to save Ochako from a knife attack from Himiko. Tsuyu tries to get more information out of Himiko, but she runs off without any explanation.

As part of the Final War, Tsuyu and Ochako face off one final time against Himiko. Tsuyu manages to discover the truth about Himiko's Quirk: how she can only transform into those that she "loves". Himiko's current status is unknown, while Tsuyu is still fighting villains.

Fanon
TogaTsuyu isn't really popular due to the two not sharing many important interactions. Many fans think it's abusive or toxic due to Himiko'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 a Tsuyu villain AU. The ship is often overshadowed by Togachako, TogaDeku, and TsuChako.

Many fans choose to ship TogaTsuyu as part of a polycule with Ochako, as a way to reconcile their love for both Togachako and TsuChako. This seems to be the more popular option than simply shipping TogaTsuyu on its own.

There are currently over 75 works on AO3 for this ship.
