Natoshi

Natoshi is the het ship between Naomi Nakashima and Satoshi Mochida from the Corpse Party fandom.

Corpse Party Blood Covered Repeated Fear
Naomi Nakashima and Satoshi Mochida are described in the game as friends since childhood. On one stormy night, the Kisaragi class were at school with their class representative, Ayumi Shinozaki, telling horror stories much to Satoshi's dismay as well as cowardice. After the story was over, Mayu Suzumoto, one of their classmates becomes very upset knowing that she'll have to transfer schools due to her father getting a new job. Ayumi uses a paper charm called "Sachiko Ever After" that she found online as a way to show Mayu that no matter what happens they will be friends forever; the other classmates and homeroom teacher join in the chant for her sake.

Suddenly the floor cracked open, causing everyone to get transported to a Multi Dimensional Nexus known as "Heavenly Host Elementary". Naomi and Satoshi are seen reaching out for each other's hands as they were being transported. Naomi is seen waking up with her best friend Seiko Shinohara as the two wonder around the school to find a way home alongside finding their homeroom teacher and classmates. When roaming through the hallways of the school, Naomi worries about if her classmates are unarmed causing her to think of Satoshi wondering if she'll meet him again getting flustered; meanwhile Seiko seeing how passionate she talks about him lightly teases her to her embrassment.

Naomi is later shown checking her phone smiling at a picture of Mochida along with her classmates during a time where they all went to a haunted house. As Naomi and Seiko rest in the infirmary, Seiko mentions Mochida to Nakashima as she teases her saying "Well, you know what they say! When two people are faced with...difficult situations, shall we say?... It often leads to love, sweet love! You should well up all your courage and confess your feelings to him! You get all girly with him in this creepy place, and your cuteness factor'll grow three sizes in his eyes, I bet!".

Naomi nearly escapes a near death encounter with a ghost from the infirmary and lashes out at Seiko in a burst of unstable emotions causing her to cry and run away. Naomi regrets her decision and wants to apologize to her only to find her hanging within a bathroom stall; she tries desperately to save her but it's too late and Seiko suffocates to death. In a moment of despair, Naomi cries and calls out for someone to save her that person in question being Satoshi.

During a flashback, as the P.E period started Seiko jokingly comments to Naomi that Mochida's heart will beat faster from seeing Naomi's bust size. Satoshi, after getting lured what appears to be Seiko's voice, finds Naomi hanging in a bathroom stall grasping for air. Satoshi steps into the stall and hoists Naomi onto his shoulders as he unties the rope saving her from inevitable death. Naomi explains the situation that she didn't understand how she got into the scenario in the first place but overall glad Satoshi found her in time saying in her own tsundere way "Dumbass... get here sooner next time". The two are seen blushing as they hugged one another tightly. In addition, Naomi discussed Seiko's fate with Satoshi as the two lament over her cruel fate; Seiko's ghost appears as they leave saying "Mochida Thank You... I will leave Naomi in your care".

Naomi later falls unconscious as a result of her injuries from the previous incident, leading Satoshi to carry her into the infirmary letting her rest in bed as Satoshi tries to find Yuka after they had been separated due to the closed spaces of the school. Naomi wakes up after some time and finds a paper note placed in her phone detailing Satoshi wishing her to get well soon; it was alongside an origami he made to cheer Naomi up from difficult woes.

Here is where the Manga and Game diverge a bit. In the Game, Naomi catches up to Satoshi and wants to stay with him out of fear that she might get attacked while she is alone in the infirmary room; she thinks back to the dream she had and realized how much Seiko has suffered only for Satoshi to reassure her by saying to not let it get to her.

Meanwhile in the Manga, Naomi sees Seiko's message and blames the death of her friend on herself as spirits surround her while Naomi hopelessly cling to Seiko's body wanting to stay with here forever; Satoshi rushing in and saves her from getting swarmed by them. Naomi lashes out at Satoshi stating he doesn't know what she's been through, Satoshi slaps her back into reality and clears up to misunderstanding of Seiko's text. The ghosts overwhelm the pair but they are successfully saved by the paranormal investigator, Naho Saenoki, Satoshi then hugs Naomi while crying wishing she doesn't put her life into harm's way ever again stating how important she was to him while blushing considerably.

Satoshi is shown protecting Naomi from falling debris after Heavenly Host started a small earthquake. The two eventually stumble upon TV footage of Yoshikazu and the incident of the three murdered children; as the mystery of this realm can revealed piece by piece. In the Chapter 4 Wrong Ending, where Satoshi fails to save Naomi from hanging herself, we see him being heavily affected by her death. In the Chapter 5 Wrong ending, Satoshi succumbs to the darkening phenomenon after Yuka is found dead, Naomi pleads Satoshi to live on at least for her meanwhile Satoshi wishes for Naomi to escape this hell with Ayumi while she still can.

The closed spaces break down after the children were appeased by Kishinuma and Shinozaki, Naomi and Satoshi were finally able to meet up with their remaining classmates. There's an awkward moment where Naomi trips on top of Satoshi leading him accidentally touching her chest leaving them both flustered and apologetic after the fact.

Yuka is captured by Kizami which the Kisaragi students put a stop to, restraining him and rushing out the classroom with Yuka as he gets murdered by Yoshikazu and Sachiko. Naomi knowing that she can't go back after losing her slip, gives Satoshi a cat toy plushie as a memento to Satoshi's confusion; he instead tries to comfort her by giving her the handkerchief she gave him causing each other to playfully blush.

In the Final Confrontation with Sachiko, the Kisaragi survivors purify Sachiko's soul with the items of her past and finally escape to reality using the paper slips they had while reciting the chant several times. Naomi's decision has differing events in the Manga and Game with the same conclusion. In the Manga, Naomi after realizing that she killed Seiko via the darkening phenomenon; she tries to commit suicide by jumping off a building only to be saved by Satoshi and crew being reminded of Seiko's true final words and strengthening her resolve to live once more. In the Game, after school hours Satoshi meets up Naomi alone as she confesses to killing Seiko as a result of the darkening but as she remembered Seiko's last words it allowed her process her grief as Satoshi comforts her in her desperate time of need.

Corpse Party Book of Shadows
Book of Shadows deals with one of many different loops throughout the series. In Seal Part 2, Satoshi tries to prevent the Sachiko Ever After Charm from happening to prevent naomi and his classmates any upcoming torture as a result of some deja vu but it doesn't work as the cycle repeats itself.

Corpse Party 2U Birthday Bash
Sachiko's Hysteric Birthday Bash is a special timeloop created for Sachiko to celebrate her birthday with a wide audience of students to play a myriad of games. Naomi is shown hugging Satoshi as he wakes up from being knocked out only to have his head be engulfed in her chest to her embrassment.

Sachiko decides to do a Harem Game where Satoshi is the harem king and the following girls Naomi, Yuka, Ayumi, Yui and Tohko might compete in absurd competitions to win the prize that being a kiss from him. In the Swimsuit challenge, when Satoshi and Naomi are met face to face with one another, the two laugh about how ridiculous each other's outfits were (with Naomi wearing a blue bikini while Satoshi is wearing a king crown and swim trunks) having a good laugh instead of being super embarrassed with each other. Naomi commented on Satoshi's body saying he has a built frame whereas Satoshi comments Naomi's is rather soft by comparison leading to the two turning away while blushing intensely.

When the second challenge was announced to be in the infirmary room, Satoshi asked Sachiko to clarify that there won't be any danger for Naomi's sake. Naomi thanks Satoshi for keeping an eye out for her as he says he'll gladly protect her whenever the situation arises. Sachiko inflicts enchantments onto a dummy doll in this challenge as each of the harem members must take good care of it or else Satoshi suffers death as a result. The dummy doll had it's stomach cut wide-open as Naomi improvise in quick succession using a manufactured medical stapler to seal up his bloody wound. She checked to see if his stomach is okay only to rub his belly leading to her going back to her tsundere tendencies denying her embrassment from that display while her face is beet red.

Naomi breaks down into tears as she and Satoshi embrace one another with Satoshi thanking her to staying by his side. During Yuishido's nursing scene, Naomi shows small scenes of jealousy from the way Yui takes delicate care of Satoshi unleashing her tsundere tendencies once more. After the birthday was over, the timeline resumed as back to their nightmarish hellscape once more.

Corpse Party Musume
Just like the Original Continuity, Naomi and Satoshi are childhood friends as well as classmates who got suddenly forcefully sucked alongside Kishinuma and Shinozaki into this hellish dimension known as "Heavenly Host Elementary". The group decided the split up this time to search clues of getting back home with Naomi, Satoshi and Yuka going together, meanwhile, Yoshiki joins Ayumi in their search hunt.

Miyu Shinohara succumbed to ghouls of the school protecting Yuka and as Satoshi mourns his classmates's death; Naomi states that he shouldn't blame himself while crying heavily. After a ghost traps Naomi in the bathroom stall and threatens to kill her, she tries her hardest for them to not harm Yuka so Satoshi wouldn't have to lose someone important to him. She is luckily saved by Yuka and Satoshi after the fact.

Naomi was found missing from the group, until it was revealed that Ayumi & Yoshiki who were possessed by Sachiko killed her in an attempt to leave this dimension. Satoshi gets mocked by Yoshiki, claiming he could see Naomi's chest in all it's glory. Satoshi sees his bloody corpse and is emotionally distraught; Ayumi kills Yoshiki and presents an ultimatum on the two of the them going home together while leaving Yuka behind. Satoshi in an attempt to save his sister tries to kill Ayumi but can't bring himself to as he wanted to go home with everyone. Ayumi breaks down and attacks him claiming she killed his **most important person** but eventually gets released from Sachiko's control. Yoshiki climbs back up the hole he was kicked from revealing to be alive which gives Satoshi the impression that maybe Naomi wasn't truly killed after all.

Satoshi after scavenging the hallways finds the real Naomi and sobs tears of joy seeing her alive in person. The crew were about to leave the place until Yuka was impaled by one of the ghosts leaving Satoshi wanting to stay while the others go home. Naomi who couldn't bring herself to lose Satoshi confesses her love to him to which he reciprocates but Yoshiki rushes them to the exit as Sachiko saves them from the school's wrath after they excorised her. After getting home, Naomi awaits a proper answer from Satoshi's confession for better clarification as the two plan a date on her house. However it is later revealed Naomi was dead the whole time due to Ayumi killing her previously as the ghost force her to take the role as the new Sachiko; meanwhile Satoshi meets a similar fate dying at the hands of his sister's spirit.

Fanon
This ship had a decent following due to mutual canonical crushes between Satoshi and Naomi. Fans of this ship enjoy the childhood friend trope surrounding it, along with satoshi being naomi's emotional anchor throughout the major story beats of the franchise.The two are often paired alongside Ayushiki in most works written for them.However this ship has it's detractors viewing the ship as rather forced and preferring Naomi's other heavily ship teased ship with seiko shinohara due to the emotional impact and warmth she had on Naomi. Others prefer to have a poly ship between the two of them to prevent ship wars and mainly due to naomi being implied to be bisexual throughout the game. Despite the detractors it has a total of 27 works on Ao3 with it being Naomi's 2nd biggest ship and Satoshi's most written ship. It rivals satoshi's other ships like Satoshiki and naomi's biggest ship known as Seinao.
