Hinadam

Hinaka is the slash ship between Hajime Hinata and Gundham Tanaka from the Danganronpa fandom.

Canon
Gundham regards Hajime with mildly degrading regard most of the time, as he does with all his other classmates. He refers to them as 'mere humans / fiends,' and often makes light jabs at them all. This treatment is not excessive to Hajime.

However, Gundham, despite his pride, appears able to easily concede when he feels Hajime has bested him. During his rebuttal shutdown in the third chapter, Gundham stops arguing quietly as soon as Hajime presents the proper evidence to prove him wrong. Furthermore, during his final argument in chapter four, Gundham easily admits his crimes as the blackened once Hinata properly corners him, going so far as to applaud the other's effort and compliment his ability to best him.

Their first meeting inspires confusion within Hajime, who needs some help from Nagito Komaeda to discern some of Gundham's metaphors. Throughout the game, Hajime seems to think of Gundham as very strange. When initiating freetime events, Tanaka receives a personalized textbox: 'Can I really hang out with someone like Gundham?'

During the second chapter of the game, Gundham is implied to have tried to follow Hajime and the rest of the students, though when discovered, he denies it and leaves. Hajime then states to himself that if Gundham wished to come along, he could have just said so.

During the fourth chapter of the game, Gundham commits the murder of Nekomaru Nidai. Hajime, being the protagonist, is responsible for convicting Gundham of his crime. Once he is outed as the blackened, Gundham applauds Hajime for doing 'quite well' for a human. He does not argue against his conviction, but denies his sacrificial actions. Hajime is one of the classmates that chooses to take Gundham's final words and actions to heart, claiming that they need to live on for Gundham's honor, and to remember his final words about holding on to life.

During Gundham's free time events, the two grow into close friends. Gundham seems surprised to discover that Hajime does not possess any hidden abilities, the ability to conjure a familiar, or a true name (likely a reference to his alter ego, Izuru Kamakura.) Throughout their events together, Gundham opens up to Hajime, sharing his backstory, top-secret breeding techniques and implications at his insecurities. Through these conversations, Hajime grows to better understand Gundham and the way he acts. Finally, Hajime proposes his offer of friendship to Gundham. At first, the breeder is angered by this, assuming that it is some kind of cruel trick. However, when Hajime clarifies he has no alternate bad intentions, Gundham expresses surprise that a human like him was capable of having no ill will. At the conclusion of these events, Gundham indirectly accepts Hajime's friendship and offers a him a handshake, an action only deserving of who Gundham refers to as 'the singularity.' With the handshake, Gundham informs that Hajime is no longer allowed to die without the exclusive permission of Gundham alone. Hajime expresses that he wished to return this, but feared that Gundham would grow angry if he did so. Their handshake grows into a battle of endurance, but Hajime expresses that it had been a long time since he felt this happy being acknowledged by someone.

During Tanaka's Island Mode events, the two grow closer still. During Gundham's ending, Tanaka refers to Hajime as his 'soul's chosen companion,' and expressing his wishes to spend the rest of his life alone with both his Four Dark Devas of Destruction and Hajime. He explains that Hajime is to fully assist him with his 'magical demon beast synthesis,' and officially declares the protagonist his friend. The exchange ends with the duo walking off hand-in-hand.

Fanon
The ship sailed as a result of Gundham and Hajime's display of friendship during their free time events. Hajime, during those events, effectively became one of Gundham's closest friends. The Island Mode they shared only added more fuel to this ship when Gundham referred to Hajime as his 'soul's chosen companion,' and the two were implied to spend their lives together at the end of the program.

This ship is a rival for those like Soudam and Sondam. However, some shippers of Hinaka still appreciate Gundham's relationship with Sonia, thus creating Sondhime.
