Canon
Momo and Rangiku are fellow Lieutenant class Shinigami of the Gotei 13/Thirteen Court Guard Squads. The two share a close friendly bond with each other.

Their first scene together occured when Momo attempted to pursue Ichimaru, only to be intercepted by Izuru. Momo requests for Izuru to move aside, claiming that he's the one responsible for killing Aizen. Izuru doesn't allow Momo to pass because he said that if it were true he could never allow anyone to attack his captain. The two end up getting into a battle. And the other lieutenants watch. Before the fight could be taken too far, Toshiro shows up and quickly stops the two from fight. He demands the other lieutenants to arrest both of them. Momo gets arrested by Rangiku and Izuru by Tetsuzaemon.

Momo is still devastated by Aizen's death to a point where she's been losing sleep. Rangiku visits Momo and notices her poor condition and asks if she finally calmed down. Momo says that she has and apologizes to Rangiku for causing a scene at the meeting because it got the other lieutenants involved. Rangiku forgives Momo and tells her not to worry about it and that instead she should worry about herself and she responds by saying she's aware.

When Momo asks what is happening outside, Rangiku tells her that it's disaterous due to the ryoka situation, people are starting to act unfocusedly. Momo also asks about what they're doing about Aizen's murder she tells her that the other Shinigami are still gather evidence. Momo says that she already knows who killed him but Rangiku orders her to not say it because it's accusation she cannot make. Rangiku says that she understands that Momo wants Aizen's killer to be put into justice but also points out she should be more concerned about her own squad. She tells Momo that there are other choices she could've made after discovering Aizen's body. Momo apologizes for making the sudden accusation and becomes sad

Rangiku feels bad and gives Momo a letter that Aizen left for her to read. Rangiku tells Momo that she's fortunate that her captain found the letter and that if anyone else did they would've likely used as evidence and it would've never gotten to Momo. She also tells Momo that she didn't read the letter and doesn't know what it says. She tells Momo that she should be honored that her captain's last words were adressed for her and that she hopes Momo appreciates it. Momo says she does and she thanks Rangiku for giving her the letter whom responds by waving her hand before leaving

When Toshiro confronts Ichimaru. Momo Arrives and says that she made it just in time. Toshiro tells her that she'll only get herself killed if she fights Ichimaru. But to his surprise. Momo points her sword at him,leving he's truly responsible for what happened to Aizen. This leads to a fight between the two. Toshiro quickly deduces that Ichimaru manipulated Momo by setting up fake letter so that the two would try and kill each other.

Toshiro attempts to target Ichimaru but is stopped by Momo and he is forced to knock Momo unconscious. Toshiro gets angered by this knowning that Gin's lies is what lead to Momo thinking that he was the one who killed Aizen. Toshiro tells Gin that he'll kill him for hurting Momo and the two get in a battle

Gin releases his sword during the battle and it extends to where Toshiro had to dodge. Gin's attack then gets sent to where Momo is who is unable to dodge due to being unconscious.

Rangiku arrives and blocks the attack that was meant for Momo, saving her life. She apologizes to Toshiro for following him after being told not to and demands that Ichimaru surrenders or she'll join in the fight. However Ichimaru manages to escape from the battle.

After Momo was nearly killed by Aizen. Who faked his death. Momo took a very long time to recover. But when she did she requested from the head captain if she could talk with Toshiro. During their conversation Toshiro eventually brings up that Momo looks like a child and that she needs to sleep healthy. He then compares to Rangiku and says that it'll take her 10 whole years to grow to Rangiku size. Momo responds by telling Toshiro she's only that tall cause she's a "freak of nature" and tells Toshiro that he of all people can't talk about growing big.

However Momo is soon knocked out cold by Yamamoto for believing that Aizen still has some good in him after betraying the Soul Society and left to the care of his lieutenant

In the battle between the Shingami and the Arrancar. Rangiku battles three fraccion at the same time. Despite her effort she is overpowered by the Fraccion and is back to the corner. To her surprise Momo arrives to assist her. She appears worried about Momo. But Momo tells her that she is no longer loyal to Aizen and that she has accepted the fact that he's a traitor to the soul society and that she also took her words about not taking her title as lieutenant lightly to heart. Despite Momo and Rangiku's combined efforts. The fraccion had a devastating trick up their sleeve and summons an enormous beast. This beast greatly wounds both Momo and Rangiku. While they are rescued by Izuru and Shuhei. They are incapicated for majority of the battle.

A year later after the fight. Momo has fully recovered and meets Toshiro and smiles at him. Which makes him happy. This is cut short when Rangiku bumps into Toshiro and knocks him over.

Fanon
MatsuHina is a rarepair ship inside the fandom and is easily overshadowed by other ships such as GinRan HitsuHina HitsuMatsu and AiHina. However the ship is known to some Bleach fans. And due to canon events. Such as Gin’s death. Aizen betraying the Soul Society, and Toshiro having a family-like bond with Momo. Some people speculate that Momo and Rangiku could potentially become a couple. Other fans also believe that Rangiku is Bisexual. Due to the scene of her tickling Orihime while wearing no clothing. And in terms of Momo’s sexuality she hasn’t necessarily shown any romantic feelings towards anyone a fair amount of people don’t mind shipping her with Rangiku either.
