FloJean is the slash ship between Floch Forster and Jean Kirstein from the Attack on Titan fandom.

Canon
The two are shown starting in friendly terms with each other as Floch was a new recruit in the Survey Corps, coming from The Garrison as the propaganda on the Survey Corps increased after the coup d'etat. During supper, Jean begins to bad mouth about the new recruits and mentions the lack of veterans, with most of them being deceased. Floch overhears Jean and decides to confront him as a joke and mentions they were both part of the 104th Cadet Corps, Jean asks Floch why he joined at this certain time which the other male mentions about the lack of scouts as well taking back Wall Maria. Floch questions whether that Jean would call himself a veteran until Jean comebacks by comparing the two, which the newly recruit questions on Jean's change before leaving.

However, due to Floch being a recruit he also participated in Erwin's suicide charge against the Beast Titan to take back Wall Maria in Shiganshina District, the outcome comes out with Floch being a sole survivor of the charge as well being the nine survivors, including Jean. Floch showed great respect for Jean before the four year time skip as Jean would advise Floch what to say to Hitch after the Battle of Wall Shiganshina, but during the discussion with Hitch, Floch tells her about Marlowe's most likely final regrets in his final moments which upsets Hitch, Jean asks Floch why did he say such a thing to Hitch.

Four years into the time skip, both Floch and Jean participate in the raid of Liberio in Marley. The two are first shown to have a sort of disagreement as Floch wanted to harm more civilians of Marley and Jean didn't agree with Floch as he believed that they should minimize the deaths of the civilians. Floch tells Jean that the people outside of the walls are the reason why most of the people who lived inside are dead, also Floch points out that Eren told them to fight instead of waiting inside of the walls.

After the Raid on Liberio, one out of the two children shot Sasha during the celebration of the victory against Marley, Floch and other Survey Corps recruits attacked the children. Afterwards, Floch asks Jean if he should throw the children off the airship but is denied as Jean believed it wouldn't stop the bloodshed between Marley and Paradis Island. When the walls fell Floch is hit but eventually survives sustaining a head injury and Jean is disappointed learning that Floch survived. Later after Floch abandoned the Survey Corps to join the Yeagerists, Floch tries to convince Jean in order to gain his support by telling him about his old desires and how Jean wanted to live a comfortable life in Wall Sina as an Military Police officer. Jean then accompanies Floch and 'becomes' a Yeagerist for the public execution of Yelena and Onyankopon, unknowingly, Floch was not aware Jean was apart of an operation to save Yelena and Onyankopon from being killed. Jean then signals Mikasa to continue the operation by purposely missing shots which confuses Floch. Pieck in her Cart Titan form then appears, Jean pushes Floch out of the way in order for Pieck to 'eat' Jean, Yelena, and Onyankopon. Floch then orders other Yeagerists to chase after Jean and the other eaten.

Chapters afterwards Floch is killed by Mikasa as he got slain through his throat with the hooks of her gear, as he dies Floch uses the last of his strength and begs Jean and Hange to not stop Eren and not to leave him, Jean is shown to be distressed after Floch dies.

Fanon
Although not as popular as other AOT slash ships, FloJean has been gaining popularity. Among Floch stans it's becoming more popular. But it is considered to be a healthier ship in comparison to its rival ship, Fleren. Most fans believed that Jean might've been Floch's only friend in the survey scouts as he might've tried guiding him after the Battle of Wall Shiganshina and the ceremony for the fallen soldiers. Despite not being very popular among the English-speaking fanbase, it has gained traction on Twitter and Japanese social medias such as Pixiv, as well with the Russian fanbase.
