Kizuchi Family

Kizuchi Family is the familyship between Kanna Kizuchi, Kugie Kizuchi, and Shin Tsukimi from the Your Turn To Die fandom.

Canon
Shin and Kugie have not met, but both have relationships with Kanna. Both are siblings to Kanna, and thus, by extension, all three are family. Kugie knows about Kanna's real family, although it's unknown if she knows who exactly they are. Kanna's consent form wish was to grant Kugie's wish, which was for Kanna to meet her real family. Shin also wished to meet his sibling.

Fanon
The Kizuchi familyship is a relatively popular one in the fandom, especially with Shin and Kanna's relationship being such a strong and important one in the game. With the reveal that Shin and Kanna are biological siblings, the family ship became more prominent, as now Shin and Kugie were officially linked as family through Kanna. Even before the reveal, Your Turn To Die fans liked to group the three together. Many felt Shin and Kanna had a sibling-type relationship and connected or paralleled that to Kugie and Kanna's siblingship. Some even went so far as to pair Shin and Kugie as adoptive siblings as well. A scene of the three where Kugie protects Kanna from Shin was also drawn in the one year anniversary art, which helped fuel the grouping. Some think though, that if Kugie did in fact know that Shin was Kanna's brother, she wouldn't act that way.

Within the Death Game, some like to imagine that after Kugie died, she watched over Kanna and scrutinized Shin's actions, being protective of her. Or, after Shin dies in the second Main Game, Kugie and Shin finally get to meet as ghosts, and then watch over Kanna together. This is fueled by the fact that Kanna had positive hallucinations of the two, leading some to believe Kugie and Shin really were cheering her on, even after death. Another scenario that is considered is if Kugie survived the First Trial, and how that would affect Shin and Kanna's relationship, and how she would react to the sibling reveal.

There are also many ideas about how the three would interact in a no-Death Game universe. One of them being about what it would be like if Shin was adopted at the same time as Kanna and they lived with Kugie together, or if he got to reunite with Kanna while they were all still alive. Some think that Shin and Kugie would have some sort of rivalry, either dependent on or only broken by Kanna. Since Kugie and Shin have never met in canon, a lot of fanon content for the Kizuchi Family is centered around Kanna. In a tweet by Nankidai from 2018, Kugie fuses with Kanna, and then puts Shin in a neck lock hold. This, along with general headcanons for Kugie, make Kugie acting as the oldest a popular headcanon, despite being younger than Shin.

While the name Greenblings usually only refers to Shin and Kanna's familyship, Kugie is sometimes included, as she is also Kanna's sibling and fits into the green theme with the colour of her blazer. Kizuchi Family is much less popular than Greenblings since Kugie is a very minor character and has less of a connection with the other two, but some think she deserves to be included in with the Greenblings. Similarily, it also loses out to Kizuchi Sisters simply because there isn't nearly as profound of a relationship directly between all three, compared to the aformentioned ships.
