Kuzusouda

Kuzusouda is the slash ship between Fuyuhiko Kuzuryu and Kazuichi Soda from the Danganronpa fandom.

Canon
Kazuichi and Fuyuhiko are two of the survivors from the second Danganronpa game, they don't really interact with each other until later in the game but when they do they are often seen next to each other in cutscenes. Throughout the first part of the game the two appear to argue a lot, Kazuichi usually using Fuyuhiko's talent and family life against him which results in the short tempered blonde to insult him in return, usually cussing him out. As time goes by the two slowly warm up to each other and eventually become friends, this mainly being shown in the DR3 anime as well as the Danganronpa 2.5 special. The main moment in which they seem to warm up to each other is within chapter 4 when the remaining survivors end up trapped in the funhouse. Before getting trapped in the funhouse however, the two are seen riding the rollercoaster together as well as sitting next to each other on the train which shows that their relationship has definitely improved since the start of the game.

In the anime the two are often seen near each other and are shown to be pretty good friends, especially in the 2.5 special where Kazuichi turns to Fuyuhiko and Nagito for advice. However when Kazuichi is killed Fuyuhiko is the first to take action, immediately plotting revenge and gathering a group of people to help his cause, this plan later backfires however which results in Fuyuhiko dying as well. Another moment showcasing the friendship between the two is when the class is under the influence of aphrodisiacs, Kazuichi begins to approach Sonia but is swiftly stopped by Fuyuhiko who holds him back to prevent him from doing anything. Kazuichi often teases Fuyuhiko due to his cold closed-off nature which at the start of their relationship he would've gotten defensive and aggressive over but later on he is shown to react a lot less, usually just shrugging off the comments. The teasing dynamic the two have shows how much both characters and their relationship has grown, the two are shown to be one of the closest friendships within the second Danganronpa game due to this.

As well as being shown to have chemistry the two also have rough home life's, Fuyuhiko being apart of the Yakuza due to his family legacy and Kazuichi being beaten by his Dad which he reveals in one of his freetime events. Due to the rough home life's that both have experienced it often explains their actions within the game as well as their personalities. Fuyuhiko is extremely defensive and aggressive whilst Kazuichi is seen as being more perverted however he is also shown to get very defensive at times, both of these personalities could be seen as having been influenced by their traumas. Although the two have not been shown to confide in each other about their home life's, the similarities show that they could understand each other if they were to talk about it. This would open up their relationship more and create a stronger bond.
