UmiMaki

UmiMaki is the femslash ship between Umi Sonoda and Maki Nishikino from the Love Live! fandom.

Canon
Umi and Maki are both cool, mature girls with occasional gap moe used for comedy. They're Lyricist and Composer, meaning they most likely spend a lot of time off screen creating music together. They have a song with Eli Ayase called "Soldier Game".

The two don't interact much. However, they do have a scene where everyone in Muse swaps personalities- Umi as Rin, and Maki as Nozomi. Umi asks her to play, snuggling up to her. Maki says she didn't remember agreeing to this.

In SID, Muse convinces Maki's father to let Maki stay in Muse. Umi has an especially huge part in this. Umi, much like Maki- is the heir to her family.

Fanon
UmiMaki is a relativly popular ship in the Love Live fandom. It falls behind on some more popular ships, like KotoUmi or NicoMaki. Umi and Maki are usually shipped because of their similar nature and attribute. Maki and Umi also have blue and red hair, which is a popular color-contrast ship trope. A common fan theory is that Riko is their future child, do to her sharing similarities with both of them (Red hair, piano player, composer/Amber eyes, second year) or less commonly: Kanan (Blue hair, related to the sea (Umi means "sea")/purple eyes).
