Tomori“ I don't want anymore breakups.”
Taki“ I will swear on that. I don't mind doing it for my whole life if it's with you.”
— It's MyGO!!!!! Episode 4

Takitomo is the femslash ship between Taki Shiina and Tomori Takamatsu from the BanG Dream! fandom.

Canon[]

Tomori and Taki are both members of the group MyGO!!!!! and former members of the (now disbanded) band CRYCHIC - Tomori being the vocalist/lyricist and Taki being the drummer for both bands. Taki also becomes the composer for MyGO!!! which is a role she didn't have in CRYCHIC. They're both first years but attend different high schools, with Tomori attending Haneoka and Taki attending Hanasakigawa.

Taki often repeats or directs attention to Tomori when she tries to speak about something, being obviously annoyed whenever she's ignored. This helps them balance one another out, since Tomori is very shy and soft spoken but Taki isn't afraid to speak what's on her mind with a louder voice.

Alongside that, Taki also has a tendency to act protective over Tomori and prioritises her feelings above others. She admires Tomori's singing and says that it made her feel like even her life was one worth living. During episode one of the anime, when showing the disbandment of CRYCHIC, Taki becomes very defensive and angry on Tomori's behalf when Sakiko seems to make a dig at Tomori - saying she needs to practice but has only been sitting around. Taki gets angry, knowing that Tomori was only waiting for Sakiko to finally show up. She even goes as far as going to grab Sakiko and shake her in anger.

Later on, when Tomori is at karaoke with Anon, Taki sees her standing outside the place she works part time looking sad. She quickly runs over to stand infront of Tomori and shield her from Anon, assuming she's upsetting the girl. When Tomori goes to run again, Taki tries to follow but is stopped by Anon, she then gets angry at the girl when she finds out she tried inviting Tomori to a band - due to Tomori's trauma with how CRYCHIC disbanded and how she blames herself for it. This further shows her tendency to protect Tomori whenever she deems the other is being insulted, threatened or just in a situation that's making her uncomfortable in general. Using her more brash and fearless attitude so Tomori doesn't have to step out her comfort zone and confront people heavily.

Taki only lets down her more tough and rude exterior when she's alone with Tomori or speaking to her directly, smiling a lot and speaking with a softer tone. She has frequent switches between her softer side and more harsh side, especially when she goes from speaking to Tomori to immediately speaking with Anon or Raana.

She also has a tendency to get jealous when others take a specific type of interest in Tomori, as seen by her getting defensive when Raana says that Tomori is an "interesting woman." She also walks Tomori home after practice and got shocked and slightly exasperated when Soyo offered to do it instead. She also got jealous when Tomori called Anon "Ano-chan", even asking what Tomori's nickname for her is, and getting shocked when Tomori simply says her name.

It's MyGO!!!!![]

Later on, after Soyo and Anon decide to team up as a band, Anon gets Soyo and the two to talk together about their differences from during their days as CRYCHIC. Once the three make up they decide to try again, and form a band alongside Anon. During discussions for important parts of the band Taki constantly states that Tomori is the vocalist when Anon keeps attempting to get the role alongside guitarist. Eventually the group is even able to score a gig as a side act for an AfterGlow x Poppin' Party event. Taki asks if Tomori truly wants to be in a band again, smiling when the other says yes, she then tells Tomori how she's happy to finally be in a band with her again, and reminisces on how they could've been at the same high school if she hadn't have moved to Hanasakigawa.

Eventually, Tomori decides she doesn't really want to do the gig alongside Anon (though for different reasons) which upsets Taki, likely making her think Tomori didn't want to be in the band after all. Eventually Tomori explains she's scared to do the gig because she's afraid they'll disband afterwards, just like CRYCHIC making Taki feel guilt for making Tomori upset though indirectly. When Anon is still trying to avoid the live gig due to her lack of skills with the guitar, Taki gets upset with her for using Tomori's concerns as an excuse, especially after Tomori's worries are ressolved.

After Anon is reassured and decides to work harder on the guitar for the gig, Tomori writes a new song for the band. Taki immediately says she'll compose it - despite being a beginner at such things - because Tomori wrote the lyrics. She even goes as far as to skip a day of school inorder to finish it. However, the role of composing soon begins to overwhelm Taki, especially since Anon is still new to guitar and Raana doesn't always show up for rehearsal. She ends up lashing out, talking about she's not as good as Sakiko was and avoids the group on the last day of practice before the gig, but Tomori alongside Anon wait for her outside her school and the latter chases after her when she tries to run. When Taki stops running away, Tomori helps put a plaster on her knee after Anon tripped and sent them both onto the concrete.

The day of the gig arrives and the group is doing their sound check and rehearsal - Raana leaving before her turn and Tomori unable to sing because of nerves. After going to their waiting room Anon and Soyo leave, for the toilet and to greet others backstage respectively, leaving Tomori and Taki alone.

Taki immediately ushers for Tomori to get off the floor and sit on the couch, saying she'll get cold and shuffling over to make room. Tomori mentions how during their last gig (as CRYCHIC) someone said the vocalist was trying too hard, which has her worried. In response Taki, though initially raising her voice only to quickly explain she wasn't mad at Tomori, comforts her and tells her that she's always amazing when she performs.

Fanon[]

Takitomo is quite popular and quickly gained attention due to them having an obviously closer bond than any of the other possible duos in MyGO!!!!!. It is mainly rivaled by Takianon, Soyotaki and Tomoanon and often shipped alongside Soyoanon. Outside of the inter-band ships, it is also rivaled by Tomosaki and Umitaki. Some fans also enjoy shipping the two with Anon as opposed to picking between the three possible variations.

At the same time, there is a section in the fandom which feels that their relationship isn't properly explored on both sides and as a result think it's hugely one-sided. A common argument from this is that Taki constantly places Tomori on a pedestal and as a result isn't able to see Tomori beyond that.

The ship currently has 50+ romantic works on AO3, it is the second most written MyGO!!!!! ship as well as both Tomori and Taki's most popular ship.
