Nishichino is the het ship between Kiriko Nishizawa and Sosuke Ichino from the Danganronpa fandom.

Canon[]

Kiriko and Sosuke are both members of Hope's Peak Academy's Student Council. They are forced into a mutual killing game by Junko Enoshima, Mukuro Ikusaba, and Izuru Kamukura. This is the first Killing Game in the Danganronpa series, and the catalyst for the Tragedy.

At one point during the Student Council's killing game, Kiriko runs after Sosuke with a shovel. She shouts that she's going to kill him. In a moment of self-defense, Sosuke is forced to kill her with a spear. He then begins to cry over what he's done, saying that he loved her. The circumstance makes it seem that Kiriko wasn't aware of Sosuke's feelings for her before the game.

It is likely that having just killed his crush triggers Sosuke to kill Taro Kurosaki and Tsubasa Kamii seconds after. As they declare their love for each other and choose to die together, Sosuke appears and stabs Taro with his spear. He then uses Kiriko's shovel to drive the spear through Taro and Tsubasa's bodies. While he does this, he shouts at them for wanting to die together. This is likely because he couldn't do the same with Kiriko. Moments later, Sosuke is killed off-screen.

Not much is known about Kiriko and Sosuke. Their Ultimate talents are unknown, as are their year levels or their relationship prior to the events of the Tragedy. However, as both are members of the Student Council it is clear that they share somewhat similar values and a dedication towards Hope's Peak. It can also be assumed that they share somewhat of a friendship, as Sosuke claims to love Kiriko.

Quotes[]

“Why?! I loved you!”
— Sosuke after killing Kiriko in self-defense in the subbed version of episode 7 of Despair Arc.
“Why did you make me do that?! I loved you! More than anything!”
— Sosuke after killing Kiriko in self-defense in the dubbed version of episode 7 of Despair Arc.

Fanon[]

The ship sailed as a result of Sosuke's canon attraction to Kiriko. It isn't that well known due to appearing on screen only for a couple of seconds, thus making it very forgettable. The fact that Sosuke ended up killing Kiriko (albeit in self-defense) didn't help to increase the popularity of this ship either. The fact that, much like in Leosaya's case, the girl was also going to kill the boy before she failed also didn't help to endear the fans.

Nonetheless, it's the most popular shipping choice for both characters included. However, that's because both are extremely minor characters within the story, which results in them being rarely shipped. The fact that they die early after their debut on-screen also contributes to them being rarely shipped with each other or anyone at all, just like for every other Student Council member.

As a result of being a ship between two extremely minor characters, it doesn't get many fan fictions or fan arts dedicated to it. When it does, it's usually portrayed as a one-sided attraction with dynamics comparable to that of Leosaya or Sounia. Rarely, Kiriko is shown to return Sosuke's feelings.
