Tomohima

Tomohima is the femslash ship between Tomoe Udagawa and Himari Uehara from the BanG Dream! fandom.

Canon
Tomoe and Himari are childhood friends as well as members of the rock band, Afterglow, where Tomoe is their drummer, and Himari is their bassist as well as the leader. They are also second-year high school students and classmates at Haneoka Girls' High School. According to Tomoe, Himari is the one who knows her the best. They are very often shown hanging out together. Although Tomoe enjoys teasing Himari, and sometimes even perplexes and flusters Himari with her hotblooded nature, she also relies on her and respects and acknowledges her as Afterglow's leader.

Growing Up Sisters!
In Himari's Card Story Episode, "I'm Being Serious!", the two meet up at the station entrance and Tomoe asks what Himari wanted to do. Seeing as Himari hadn't come up with anything, Tomoe suggests they look through some of the leaflets to find something they'd like. A while later as Himari excitedly looks at the different stores holding a holiday fair, Tomoe thinks to herself how she's interested in the bookstore's photobook fair. Tomoe decides to hide her curiosity by telling Himari she's fine with going anywhere. Four hours later, the two are back at the station entrance and Himari comments just how fun it was.

Tomoe agrees with her and calls her Himari-sama, before Himari slips up and reveals she invited Tonoe to come with her to make her feel better. Himari is flustered hearing she wasn't being secretive at all, before changing to being confused when Tomoe thanks her. She tells it was all Tomoe's effort and they were just there to hoist her up when Tomoe was feeling down after the latter says it was thanks to Himari and the others that she was able to make up with Ako. Himari reminds Tomoe to come talk to everyone in Afterglow when she's troubled again, and Tomoe teases her, before promising to do so. Himari then surprises Tomoe by knowing that the latter wanted to the visit the bookstore as well, confidently remarking that they're childhood friends so of course Himari would know.
