IzuEri

IzuEri is the friendship ship between Izuku Midoriya and Eri from the My Hero Academia fandom.

Canon
Eri bumped into Izuku while he was with Mirio on patrol, and as Izuku kneels down to tend to her Overhaul approaches them and this gets Eri to cling onto the young hero in-training. Izuku then wraps his arms around Eri to protect her from the people she is frightened of, making him the first person to hold Eri a kind caring way in a very long time, but their mission from Sir Nighteye has Mirio telling Izuku to let Eri go back to them. Even though Izuku didn't feel committable about it. After Eri returned to Overhaul and was later placed back into her room, she recalls the warm embrace Izuku gave her.

Fanon
Because of Eri's young age, fans prefer to ship them as friends or as a family, but there have been those who have shipped them romantically, by making Eri older and more around Izuku's age. Like with Mirio, fans tend to focus on the family-like bond Izuku forms with Eri from the times he acts like a caring big brother to her; since some fans are hopping that Izuku might one day adopt. It is also one of the reasons why fans have them mirror the Kamado siblings in a Demon Slayer AU or crossover. Some like to compare IzuEri with KotaIzu and MiriEri.

On AO3, the friendship has 778 fanfics, along with 37 het fics, while Fanfiction.net has 197 fanfics on the two. Tumblr and Deviantart also has many fanart image of Izuku spending time with Eri.
