Hagakureon

Hagakureon is the slash ship between Leon Kuwata and Yasuhiro Hagakure from the Danganronpa fandom.

Canon
Leon and Yasuhiro are both students at Hope's Peak Academy in Class 78. Leon and Yasuhiro seem to be good friends, evidenced by the winter class photograph from Danganronpa: The Animation. In it, Leon is seen pitching a snowball at Yasuhiro. When the Tragedy occurs, they both agree alongside their classmates to be sealed away safely in the school. At some point, Junko Enoshima takes away their memories of their years together as classmates.

Leon and Yasuhiro do not share very many interactions with each other, mostly due to the fact that Leon is executed at the end of the first chapter. However, Leon does use Yasuhiro's crystal ball to start the incinerator and attempt to burn up evidence of his crime. In the Alternate Universe light novel Danganronpa: Trigger Happy Havoc IF, Leon uses the same crystal ball to destroy Monokuma. He then promises to pay Yasuhiro back for it, so long as money still matters out in the real world.

In the light novel Ultra Despair Hagakure, Yasuhiro travels to Towa City to do work for the Future Foundation. There he runs into Leon's cousin, Kanon Nakajima. Kanon was in love with Leon, and wants to seek revenge on members of the Future Foundation for his death. However, Kanon sees a lot of Leon in Yasuhiro and that helps to change her perception of him.

They do not share any interactions in the non-canonical Ultimate Talent Development Plan or Danganronpa S: Ultimate Summer Camp.

Leon and Yasuhiro do share a number of similarities with each other. They are both considered to be rather "dumb" characters, although Leon does manage to show more intelligence. They were also both targeted as people that could be easily framed by a killer. The only difference here is that Leon fought back and became a killer himself, whereas Yasuhiro was roped fully into Celestia Ludenberg's plot.

Fanon
Hagakureon is a rather popular ship in the Danganronpa fandom. Fans like the potential for a dynamic between the two characters. They are considered to be the "Himbos" of Trigger Happy Havoc, and so even though they don't share many interactions fans enjoy the possibilities they would have. Some people ship Hagakureon as a "Pair the Spares" when they manage to pair up all the other characters into more popular ships.

There are currently over 140 works on AO3 for this ship. It is Leon's third most popular and Yasuhiro's most popular.
