Naoreko

Naoreko is the femslash ship between Reko Yabusame and Nao Egokoro from the Your Turn To Die fandom.

Canon
In a short amount of time during the death game, Nao and Reko became quite close.

Throughout the first two chapters of the game, they are seen to care deeply about each other. While the others search for Sue Miley's body parts, they take care of Kanna together in the Central Hall. When Nao goes missing holding Professor Mishima's head, Reko is restless.

Moments before the first Main Game, Reko is seen comforting/talking with Nao in front of the red door in the 2F Back Hallway. During the Main Game, whenever Nao would be suspected or accused of something, Reko is always the one to immediately defend her.

In the route where Reko lives, after Alice's death, Reko who is very upset angrily asks Nao and Sara to leave her alone, but suddenly changes her mind and asks that just Nao stay with her for a bit.

If Reko is alive at the end of Chapter 2, Nao thanks her for being her friend, to which Reko tries to express her gratitude for their friendship by responding with "If you weren't around, Nao, I...!!". If Reko is dead at the end of Chapter 2, they're seen together as Nao paints a portrait of Professor Mishima, implying that Nao felt Reko was just as important to her as Mishima.

In general, the two are often seen searching together.

Your Time to Shine
In one of Nao's death scenes, Reko is the one to call after and mourn Nao's death, and vice versa.

Fanon
Similar to Joesara, Naoreko has a lot of popularity in the fandom, most likely because of how easily they became close after meeting at the start of the death game. Some fans prefer to ship Naosara, while Naoreko is the most popular ship for Reko.

There is a good amount of implications that Nao may have a crush on Reko mainly implied in Nankidai's illustrations and 4koma comics. In one of Nankidai's illustrations there is a drawing where Reko puts eye liner makeup on Nao. In the next drawing Nao is seen being rather attractive looking in Reko's viewpoint. In the final drawing Reko talks to Gashu about how she became a "fan".
