YagaMane

YagaMane is the het ship between Light Yagami and Misa Amane from the Death Note fandom.

Anime/Manga
When Light, disguised as Kira, killed the man who murdered Misa's parents, she instantly developed a fanatical obsession with him. After finding out the real identity of Kira, her obsession turned to infatuation. Since Misa had a Death Note of her own, as well as the added ability to see the names of people she hadn’t been introduced to, Light allowed her to be his girlfriend.

Light was an important figure in Misa’s life, and she frequently commented on him being so, often declaring her love for him despite little reciprocation. She was faithful to Light to the point of refusing to perform a kiss with fellow actor, Hideki Ryuga, while making a film out of her fidelity. After losing her memories of the Death Note for the first time, she even decides to help catch Kira, whom she views as the avenger of her family, for Light (who has joined the Task Force and has no memories of the Death Note).

Film
Ten years have passed since Light died. Misa continued her work as an actress while her activities were secretly supervised by police officers. She regained her memories after cyber-terrorist Yuki Shien gave her a Death Note. Initially refusing to cooperate with him due to Light’s death, she made another eye trade from Ryuk and helped Yuki escape with the six Death Notes he collected by killing two of the Task Force investigators. Although she failed to kill Ryuzaki (whose name was written on a Death Note prior similar to L), she committed suicide by writing her own name, scribbled “Misa Amane dies in Light Yagami’s hands.”

Fanon
Yagamane is one of the most popular ships within the fandom, coming second after Lawlight, the slash ship between L and Light.

It is widely accepted in the fandom that Light didn't have any real feelings for Misa. When she tried surprising Light with some skimpy lingerie, he didn’t even look at her. Light just kept Misa around because she was easy to control and had an added power. It's also canon that Light feels no attraction towards women, so it's widely accepted that the ship is one sided.
