Amaguji

Amaguji is the slash ship between Rantaro Amami and Korekiyo Shinguji from the Danganronpa fandom.

Canon
During Chapter 1, Rantaro had a good impression of Korekiyo and considers him interesting, appearing to be the only one who has a positive view on Korekiyo. The two have very little interaction in the canon main plot, with the only one being when Korekiyo asks Rantaro how he wants to accomplish ending the killing game. However, they have more interactions in the bonus content.

During his first Free Time Event with Kaede, if the player chooses to talk about Kiyo, Rantaro tells Kaede that Korekiyo has a strong personality, but if she takes the time to speak with him she'll understand him. In addition, he emphasizes that Korekiyo is a calm person who seems to be a clever type.

The two also have two events together in the game’s bonus mode, Ultimate Talent Development Plan. In these events, they bond over both of them traveling a lot, their knowledge about various cultures and having sisters who are important to them, seemingly seeing each other briefly whenever they're both in the school area and tell each other where they've been lately. However, it's also implied that Korekiyo has taken interest in meeting Rantaro's sisters in order to make them his sister's "friends", meaning murdering them.

In Danganronpa S: Ultimate Summer Camp, when playing as Korekiyo, you can speak to someone “well-traveled”, which is Rantaro. The interaction starts off by with Korekiyo asking Rantaro for some advice with traveling. Rantaro responds by simply telling Korekiyo to respect the local people’s customs, and try to get along with them. He also adds that he’s sure Korekiyo will be fine. Korekiyo finds this rather reassuring, and goes on about how he’s a beginner at international traveling, despite being out of the borders, which leads to Rantaro offering to be his guide for his first trip. Korekiyo is surprised at first, but soon says he is grateful for this.

In the Danganronpa V3 Relationship Charts, Rantaro comments that he finds Korekiyo really interesting, while Korekiyo just laughs.

Fanon
The two are shipped together mostly as a result of the interest that Rantaro showed in Korekiyo because of his mysterious ways, and the similarities between them that are pointed out in the Ultimate Talent Development Plan. Despite having different personalities, they share common interests with both of them having sisters who are important to them, traveling a lot, and possessing knowledge about various cultures - Rantaro as a result of traveling and Korekiyo as a result of being an anthropologist. Which is why in many fan arts they are seen traveling together.

It's one of the of the most popular ships for Rantaro and the most popular for Korekiyo. On AO3, the ship has over over 460 fanfictions. It's the most written ship for Korekiyo and the 3rd most for Rantaro only behind Amasai and Oumami. They are often shipped alongside Saiouma.
