"Sassy. I like it"

MiruHawks is the het ship between Rumi "Mirko" Usagiyama and Keigo "Hawks" Takami from the My Hero Academia fandom.

Canon
Both Hawks and Mirko are high ranking heroes with animal-like ability quirks. Similar to how Keigo Takami being the son of a thief and a killer gives him a connection to the world of villainy, the Vigilantes prequel revels that Rumi Usagiyama has a juvenile record from when she crushed illegal fight clubs while wearing her middle school uniform. Despite this, a child Keigo using his quirk top save innocent people, along a pro hero arresting Keigo's abusive father, and a young Rumi helping Iwao and Kendo to take down a Hooded Man, lends to them becoming pro heroes. Just as Hawks's main skill and strength comes from his wings, Mirko's is

Fanon
Similar to TokoTsuyu, Hawks and Mirko are shipped together from being prop heroes who have animal related quirks. Along with the Pro Hero Arc showing that the two are so different from one another, when it comes to their spunky personalities, take pride in their speed and the fact that Mirko came to Hawks' aid when Dabi tried to attack him and Endeavor. After Kohei Horikoshi did a sketch of the, it inspired fans to draw Keigo and Rumi in those clothes, along with featuring them as high school friends in their fanfics and artwork.

Most fanart and fanfics on the ship commonly has the two lending each other a hand in group hero missions, or of them simply hanging out together in their casual wear. Along with having Hawks and Mirko swapping quirks and clothes, for a laugh. Due to how the popularity that surrounds Hot Wings and EndHawks, however, it over shadows MirkuHawks. Despite this, it hasn't stopped fans from supporting it, as fans are hoping that the manga will have the two pro heroes to cross paths with one another again.

After both Mirko and Hawks got badly hurt in the Paranormal Liberation War Arc, where Mirko losses half an arm and there were theories that Hawks might have lost his wings for good and how it might end both of their hero curriers, fans began to draw and write about the two helping one another to cope with their injuries. The ship's support grew after Vigilantes reveals that Rumi has faced the Hood before he was turned into the High-End Nomu, that Hawks helps Endeavor to fight in the Pro Hero Arc. Along with the fact that Mirko helped Hawks to keep Dabi's from taking the dead Nomu away.

MiruHawks is also the rival ship of Hot Wings and MiruYumi.

On AO3, the ship has 81 het fanfics and 310 gen fics. MiruHawks also has reasonable size fanbases on Fanfiction.net, Tumblr and Deviantart.
