NagiHono is the femslash ship between Nagisa and Honoka from the Pretty Cure fandom.

Futari wa Pretty Cure
In the very first episode, Nagisa and Honoka are seen doing their club activities, then cross paths with one another without knowing. The next morning, the former, along with her sports team, come across the latter in the school’s locker room exchanging thoughts about the recent shooting stars in their area. When Honoka left, Nagisa’s companions explain the former’s intelligence and popularity in the past. During a class, Nagisa tries to solve a math question, but gets stumped. Honoka interrupts the teacher, telling him that Nagisa could not do so since the answer would not make sense, and correcting it; gaining the respect of the other classmates. When the bell rang, Nagisa thanks Honoka for “saving [her]”. At sunset, Nagisa’s teammates discuss about nominating her and Honoka as class represenatives when boarding a train back home.

At her apartment, Nagisa wishes to be the “smart one” rather than sporty. Later, they receive their compacts and cards, alongside their guides. Mepple guides Nagisa to an amusement park about to close, then is confronted by Pisard. Honoka runs into the same park with her guide Mipple. As Pisard asks her to hand over the compact, Nagisa hits him with her stick, making him lose grip of Mepple. She immediately catches the compact using the net. Both girls transform into Cure Black and Cure White under the advice of their compacts. They take on Pisard, who then calls for a Zakenna that then possess a rollercoaster car. Black saves White from one of its spiked wheels; and asks her if she is alright, to which she agrees. The compacts tell the two to hold hands and perform the Marble Screw, exorcising the Zakenna from the car and dispersing it into small star-shaped creatures. Thinking they they have won, Honoka wonders what happened to the “strange guy” they were fighting. The guides ask them to be let out of the pouches, reunited with each other. Nagisa asks for explanation, to which they reply that both girls will fight along them as Pretty Cure.

Honoka soon becomes a good friend of Nagisa after the events of the first episode. They sometimes keep each other company, and even Honoka tried to set her up with her crush Shougo. In one episode, Nagisa admits that if she was a boy, Honoka would be the type of person she would like. In another, Nagisa and Honoka play the roles of Romeo and Juliet.
