UzuOba is the slash ship between Tengen Uzui and Obanai Iguro from the Demon Slayer fandom.
Canon[]
Tengen and Obanai are both Hashiras in the Demon Slayer Corps. Obanai is the Serpent Hashira, while Tengen is the Sound Hashira. The two first met prior to the beginning of the story, their first meeting was when Obanai became a Hashira, since at that time Tengen was already a Hashira.
Tengen and Obanai were seen together during the Hashira meeting regarding the Kamado Siblings. In this meeting the two were both on the side of killing the siblings, since Tanjiro had violated the rules of the Demon Slayer Corps by traveling with a demon alongside him.
They are once again seen together near the end of the Entertainment District Arc. At that time Tengen can be seen laying against some rubble surrounded by his wives, while Obanai just arrived at the scene. The two are then shown holding a conversation. However it is mostly Obanai who is talking. Obanai first commends Tengen for his victory, whilst also putting emphasis on the fact that it was the weakest upper rank. With Tengen only having a short reply, which was that Tengen denies Obanai’s praise. A moment after Obanai asks what Tengen is going to do now, and to this Tengen replies that he is going to retire. Shortly after Tengen said this Obanai goes on to speak about Tengen's answer and refuses to listen to Tengen’s wish. Tengen ignores Obanai and mentions that the boy Obanai hates, Tanjiro, is reaching his potential. Obanai is seen to be in disbelief that Tanjiro had survived this immense battle. The two then part ways when the Kakushi arrive at the scene.
Obanai and Tengen both participate in the Hashira Training, with both of them training other Demon Slayers.
In the second fanbook, Obanai states that he had the chance to talk about his past with Tengen and respects him for never looking down. Tengen states that Obanai is "flamboyant" because of his eyes being different colors, but he is also too demanding and serious.
Fanon[]
UzuOba is a rarepair in the fandom, as the two are not seen interacting much with each other. Nevertheless, the ship has gained slight popularity due to them being seen on good terms and their respect for eachother. Fans also seem to like and notice how they are usually seen together in official art. It is still however, one of the smaller slash ships for both characters.
Fans of the pairing have also created an AU where Tengen is not married and the two would go on to meet each other and would eventually fall in love.
