MonoSonic is the slash ship between Monokuma and Sonic from the Danganronpa and Sonic the Hedgehog fandoms.

Canon[]

As both characters originate from different video games, they have never met. However, at one point in New Danganronpa V3, Monokuma mentions a “hedgehog who loses his rings whenever he crashes into stuff”, speaks of his hatred of “that guy and his worldwide fame and his stupid games”, and even shouts in a full-blown Adventures of Sonic the Hedgehog Dr. Robotnik-esque fashion, “I hate that hedgehog!” in those exact words. The first part is a reference to the usual Sonic the Hedgehog video game mechanic when the hedgehog (or other characters) being hurt by Badniks, spikes, and other obstacles.

Sonic and Monokuma have very conflicting personalities: the hedgehog being the main protagonist of the his titular franchise, while the robot bear is the main antagonist of Danganronpa series. Sonic values freedom above all else and wishes to travel the world and enjoy life. He loathes confinement, and being trapped in the same place makes him uneasy and restless. Monokuma, on the other hand, enjoys the suffering of others. His prime method of inflicting human suffering is confinement, as seen throughout the games. Their goals highly conflict, one example being Sonic’s desire to protect nature, while Monokuma seeks to destroy it.

Both Monokuma and Sonic care carefree and cheerful, though Monokuma has a very sinister undertone. They each have confident personalities and crack a lot of jokes. In addition to this, both are often impatient and short tempered, having little tolerance for boredom. Monokuma usually holds himself back from making impulsive decisions while Sonic has more of a tendency to be reckless when he is stir-crazy. Sonic and Monokuma are both juxtapositions of different traits, Sonic being kindness and ferocity, Monokuma being good and evil. These contrasts play off each other in each individual character and when compared to each other.

Monokuma and Sonic’s potential lies in their views of enemies as people who can provide fun. Sonic is shown to have the ability to survive Monokuma’s attention, and also the capacity to forgive his enemies. Although Sonic has killed before, he is unlikely to kill Monokuma permanently due to his status as a robot. Thanks to Sonic’s unbreakable spirit, the two can spend many years keeping each other entertained through battle.

Fanon[]

This ship set sail shortly after the release of Danganronpa V3: Killing Harmony, the home of Monokuma’s anti-Sonic rant. Though it may be considered a crack-crossover ship, some fans started to ship both characters jokingly or seriously, due to Monokuma making a reference to Sonic in Danganronpa V3’s fourth trial. This was further encouraged by Sonic Team’s response to Monokuma’s rant on Twitter.[citation needed]

The fact that Monokuma and Sonic are both mascots of their respective franchises might have also encouraged fans to ship them.

This ship has some following. There are a handful of fan-made fictions featuring the pair. Currently, there are 16 works published on Wattpad for the ship. Fan-fiction is currently the most popular medium of fan-creations made for MonoSonic. The majority of art for the ship was made specifically for Wattpad covers. The art is typically in the form of MS Paint drawings or photo manipulations. There is also a handful of YouTube videos featuring MonoSonic, also filled with said drawings and photomanips.
