Rivusa

Rivusa is the het ship between Musa and Riven from the Winx Club fandom.

Canon
Riven and Musa's relationship has always been complicated throughout the whole show. After meeting each other for the first time in the episode "Black Mud Swamp", Musa quickly developed a crush on Riven due to his bad boy behaviour and mysterious air surrounding his tough personality. Unfortunately, the feelings were not mutual as Riven seemingly didnt want to have anything to do with Musa. To make things worse for Musa, Riven began to date Darcy and started to work for her, which Musa accidentally finds out by catching them having a private moment in the episode "Betrayed". While Riven continued dating and working for Darcy, Musa slowly began to set her feelings for him aside.

Fanon
Rivusa is the most popular ship for both characters due to many fans liking their relationship for being more "realistic". Although despite its popularity the ship also received (and still receives) a lot of criticism for its more toxic nature as Riven and Musa's relationship in the show isnt exactly healthy. Many Winx fans wished that the break-up that occured between them in season 6 would have been the final ending for their love story.

On AO3, the ship has over 600 fanfictions written for it.
