MyKuromi

MyKuromi is the femslash ship between My Melody and Kuromi from the Sanrio fandom.

Canon
Kuromi is My Melody's self-proclaimed rival, while My Melody thinks of Kuromi as her close friend. This is because, despite their rivalry, they do not hate or dislike each other. My Melody openly has warm feelings for Kuromi, but Kuromi's feelings are more inclined to rivalry, to make her appear tougher than she truly is on the inside.

Onegai My Melody
Kuromi holds a strong grudge against My Melody for innocent mistakes she thought were traumatizing and intentionally malicious. Kuromi keeps documentation of each mistake My Melody makes in a notebook she calls the 'Kuromi Note', which she vows to one day get revenge for. To this end, she escapes from prison in Mariland with her accomplice Baku to the human world to start her quest of harvesting human dreams and using them to summon the Spirit of the Dark Power. Kuromi's disdain for My Melody, and subsequent descent into deliquency started after she used the first ever page of her Kuromi Note to write down her dream of becoming friends with My Melody. Beause only a moment later, My Melody used said page to wipe My Sweet Piano's nose, mistakenly confusing Kuromi's notebook for her own.

In episode 52 of Onegai My Melody: Kuru Kuru Shuffle, Kuromi suffers a parasitic possession by the Spirit of the Dark Power. My Melody gets ahold of Kuromi's notebook during this time, and upon realizing the amount of grief and misery she caused Kuromi, she begins to cry and plead for forgiveness. Just as Kuromi had freed herself from the possession, the satisfaction she feels after finally seeing My Melody cry knocks her back into a possessed state, as hatred starts to fill her heart again.

My Melody apologizes and gives one last goodbye to kuromi as she makes her way to lock herself in a closet, essentially committing suicide. Kuromi, still under possession, encourages her to do so. Just as the door closes, Kuromi forcibly breaks out of the dark spirit's possession and launches herself towards the closet, all while crying and scolding My Melody: "My Melo, ya dumb twit! If you die, who the heck am I supposed to fight with?" The force of the launch knocked them both out, and the scene cuts to Kuromi and My Melody holding hands while passed out on the ground. While Kuromi was adamant about her rivalry and hatred for My Melody, deep down, she still harbored some amount of care for her.

Onegai My Melody: Yu and Ai, a 2012 short feature film released alongside Jewelpet The Movie: Sweet Dance Princess, takes place after the events of Onegai My Melody: Sukkiri, and focuses on Kuromi's rivalry-turned-friendship with My Melody. In the film, Kuromi now has over one million entries in her Kuromi note. Staying true to their mischievous nature, Kuromi and Baku steal food from My Melody while they're on summer vacation, after several unsuccessful attempts of getting food through simply asking. My Melody places a melody mark on Kuromi, forcing her to give back the food she had stolen. My Melody then invites the rest of Mariland for a barbecue on the beach, where she sits enjoying seafood with Baku, Kuromi, and Ruby (a jewelpets character). While eating, My melody calls for both Ruby and Kuromi's attention, and asks them "we'll always be friends, right?" to which Kuromi agrees with a cheeky "I guess!", while the skull on her hood appears to be blushing. In the background of this scene, a duet between My Melody and Kuromi can be heard. In the song, the two vehemently sing about their platonic adoration for one another.

Fanon
is one of the most popular femslash pairings in the Sanrio fandom. The two are often seen together in both official artwork and fanart as a pair though they are only friendly rivals. Many Sanrio fans tend to headcanon them as enemies to lovers. Fans of the ship also love their aesthetic, My Melody being pastel pink and girly, and Kuromi being tomboy-ish with a dark, almost emo-ish style.
