ShizuKari

ShizuKari is the femslash ship between Shizuku Osaka and Karin Asaka from the Love Live! fandom.

Canon
Shizuku and Karin were the students of Nijigasaki High School. Although the two never interacted, they both know that the former school idol club was disbanded during its break. After Kasumi Nakasu formed a friendship with Yu Takasaki, they invited former members of the club (in case for Karin, she was presumably invited by Emma Verde) for a meeting outside the campus to discuss about the reestablishment of the school idol club and getting Setsuna return to the club. When Karin formally joined the club, however they rarely interact aside from few moments like they're standing together at Rina's concert, Karin applauds Kanata and Shizuku after the group comforts her before her solo concert, and Karin talks to Kasumi and Skizuku about the upcoming collab set with Shinonome Academy during their first School Idol Festival.

Sometime after the formal announcement of the 2nd Festival, Shizuku and Karin are slowly forming their friendships as seen from the joint concert of QU4RTZ and Y.G. International Academy where they compliment at the group's successful concert. On the other day, the two are seen fixing various costumes alongside Ayumu, with them working together on Karin's "VIVID WORLD" outfit. Around winter season, Kasumi suggests a slumber party at Shizuku's home to welcome their new members Shioriko, Mia, and Lanzhu where the entire club members, including Karin, are invited. At the party, Karin and Shizuku dines together in the afternoon and participated in singing the group's new single "Love U my friends".

After the success of Nijigasaki's "First Live With You" concert, their bond has finally reached the point. Shizuku and Karin were at the food court to discuss about her interest in the drama club. Karin was looking for other activities apart from modeling. Shizuku hastily offers her a trial membership and she told her they have a story that perfectly suits for her role. Karin gladly accepted her offer.

Fanon
ShizuKari is one of the rarest ship in the Love Live! and Nijigasaki fandom because the two rarely interact each other in ''Love Live! School Idol Festival ALL STARS mobile game and in the anime Love Live! Nijigasaki High School Idol Club'' aside from magazine scans where the two are occassionally seen together. Despite their status, some fandom has found the potential of the two because Shizuku was the member of the Drama Club and Karin was a model career, and amusingly they shares similar surnames. That said the two can be perfect for their respective activities or work together for making their outfits as seen from the magazines. This has finally realized in the season finale of Nijigasaki Season 2 when they talked together about the acting.

This ship formed a mutual ship with other least popular ships, however it is heavily rivaled by KasuShizu, ShizuPrez, EmmaKari, and KanaKari.

Trivia

 * Amusingly, both shares almost the same surnames.
 * In Love Live! School Idol Festival and Love Live! School Idol Festival ALL STARS mobile games, Shizuku and Karin can be formed as a single team using only their cards, and in ALL STARS the two can interact each other in the gameplay/MV of certain songs. Also in ALL STARS, Shizuku and Karin can be formed in the SP gauge to have SP animation of the ship by having 2 Shizuku cards and 1 Karin card or vice versa, provided that the 3D live settings is enabled in the settings.
