EraserDeku

EraserDeku is the friendship between Izuku Midoriya and Shota Aizawa from the My Hero Academia fandom.

Canon
Izuku Midoriya goes to UA High School, his main homeroom teacher being Shota Aizawa. At first, Shota had his doubts about Izuku passing the Hero course. But after seeing him channel his power and eventually have complete control over One for All, he changed his mind.

Aizawa often views Izuku as a problematic student. His actions and behavior throughout the seasons and arcs made Aizawa doubt him. He is infamous for following his heart (but also relies on his logic). He even decides to charge into a fight. Aizawa begins to look at Izuku this way from Episode 5, season 1 where the teen tries to use his quirk on his whole hand during the ball throw.

​​​​​Shota has proven to be very vocal and unafraid when expressing his ideas. He often is straight to the point when dealing with Izuku, stating how the boy's trouble is bothersome and will get him hurt. is one main example in which Shota is almost fed up and disappointed at how Izuku constantly injures and beats up his body.

Shota cares for Izuku a bit more than the other students. Izuku is his most problematic student and often surprises him.

Fanon

However, most are quite uncomfortable with it due to the Teacher-Student relationship and age gap. This discourse doesn't seem to hinder those who love the interactions and relationship between the two, and neither does it stop others from shipping it.

Most EraserDeku fans started shipping the two from Episode 5, but it began to grow after the Forest Training Camp Arc.
