NanaShoko

NanaShoko is the het ship between Kento Nanami and Shoko Ieiri from the Jujutsu Kaisen fandom.

Canon
Nanami and Shoko are Jujutsu Sorcerers associated with Tokyo Jujutsu High. Both Shoko and Nanami are laid back people, who, nonetheless effectively carry out their duties, when necessary. It’s been revealed by the author that both are heavy drinkers. They have known each other for over 10 years with Shoko being a year older than him. When Nanami is admitted to the college, Shoko is already a second-year student. Years later, after Geto declares war on the Jujutsu society, both Shoko and Nanami are seen attending the meeting, where principal Yaga discusses their plan on defending it. Interestingly enough, they have different opinions on Geto’s turn on the Jujutsu society – Shoko believes it was a stupid decision, but Nanami understands him.

A year later, when Nanami is working with Yuji, as they investigate the cinema theater incident, the victims are sent to Shoko for examination. When the examination is complete, Shoko calls Nanami and tells him that the cursed spirits they killed once were humans. Her report is very extensive, she reveals to him that the brain stems of the victims had been modified, just like their consciousness. She concludes that the connection between the brain and the cursed energy is still shrouded in mystery. Nanami lets Shoko tell Yuji that it wasn’t his fault the people died. Then, he hangs up on her and hides his phone in the left side of his jacket.

When sometime later Nanami fights Mahito, the culprit of the theater incident, he sees a transfigured person who is begging Nanami for help. Nanami immediately remembers Shoko’s words, who told him that a human, once transfigured, cannot be helped. She said that if one of these comes after Nanami or Yuji, they should kill it without hesitation. Both are active participants at the Shibuya incident. Shoko is working at a set-up place to heal wounded sorcerers, while Nanami heads into the screen set around the area to protect the people. When Ijichi and Ino get seriously injured, Nanami calls Shoko. In a conversation with Yaga Shoko notes that it was wise to free Nanami of phone duty and let him fight. She believes it would be a waste forcing him to sit and do nothing.

Fanon
is a rarepair due to the fact that Nanami and Shoko don’t have many scenes together and Shoko is a minor character. It is Shoko’s fifth and Nanami’s eighth most written ship on Archive of Our Own. The ship is overshadowed by NanaGo for nanami and ShokoHime for Shoko, but considering many JJK fans are multishippers, there are supporters for in both camps.

Both Shoko and Nanami seem to care about Yuji, they worry he might accept his fault in killing humans, when he is only a child who is fighting a difficult battle alongside adults. Fans believ that Shoko and Nanami have the same energy, so they would make great friends. Given that both enjoy drinking, many headcanon them going out together: to gossip about work, Gojo's insufferable behaviour, and to simply share life wisdom with each other.
