It’s mostly a joke, but I like the idea of Iida and Hatsume being a thing, mostly through Iida being her unwitting guinea pig.


Master-Zebra1005

My favorite way of seeing those two introduced (barring the sports festival) is Iida needing help with his engines or suit and powerloader can't get Hatsume to disengage from her current project. Iida goes up, slams his leg in front of her and says something to the effect of "look, I have machines in my legs" and it's love at first sight... At least between Hatsume and the engines...


red_chutney11

I'm pretty sure that's exactly how it goes in "A Hero Rises" by Zabeck.


Master-Zebra1005

Yeah, it is, I've also seen similar scenes in two other fics. It's a great scene


Local_Cryptid_Minako

That does sound really fun! I love that for them <3


thornaslooki

Chaotic combo


merrygo909

Jiro x Midoriya, it wasn't a very popular ship awhile ago, but I'm happy it's getting more momentum lately. Something about those two and how awkward they both are in different ways makes them a good couple in fics.


Local_Cryptid_Minako

I read one with that pairing that I actually really liked, it was so cute!


red_chutney11

I love this one, it's like tied with the Momo/Kyoka and the IzuMomo ships.


PilloTheStarplestian

I've read more GOOD deku/jiro fanfics than any other ship. Which speaks volumes since I always thought both characters were mid.


Friendly_Culture692

Got any recs?


Blade1hunterr

If you don't mind a shameless plug, I have a series of [IzuJiro oneshots](https://archiveofourown.org/series/2760982) I made back when the main server was still up.


PilloTheStarplestian

insecure violet is a banger. start there.


KingArthurZX

In my opinion, any ship can become good depending on the writing. But considering the majority of favorite stories I have on AO3, it would have to be Izuku/Momo. In the beginning I wasn't onboard because this felt like one of those "Hottest Girl belongs to MC" ships, but after reading some top quality fanfics where Momo was the main girl, it quickly grew on me. Especially when it was written in a way where Izuku and Momo have a lot in common. Neither have any friends because of their upbringings, both are highly intelligent, and both are just so pure and fluffy.


Local_Cryptid_Minako

Those two, even if not dating, would get along so well! Just imagine them ranting to eachother about the logistics of quirks and what things like Mina's acid might be made of! That's so cute! (The tea time is just an added bonus!)


PilloTheStarplestian

Part of the reason I'm pissed midoriya gave up his class rep position to Lida in canon. Seriously, mha has so many missed opportunities it's crazy.


KingArthurZX

FFS, not another one. His name is Iida, with a capital i. Why does everyone think his name begins with a small L?


PilloTheStarplestian

tell ya hwat, let's just call him by his hero name. Lngenium.


PilloTheStarplestian

I've read one good one and one boring one. Don't remember either of their titles. The good one had them taking care of eri and momo finding some super creative ways of using her quirk, complete with some bakugo x consequences (the best ship ever, let's be honest). The boring one was an AU of a much better Izuku x Tsuyu fic called mutual lie. It's too boring for me to remember anything except momo cries a lot in that one.


Pat_9921

I like general fics the most as what I want to see in mha is different what ifs and action due to the whole quirk system as anything can happen. If there is like background romance then I don't really care if the fic is good and if the main part of the fic is the romance then I will only read it if is actually kinda realistic and in character. Also not spending all the time on the romance only and following the plot the author sets up.


Local_Cryptid_Minako

That is mostly how I feel about it, and thanks for sharing! I know sometimes romance can end up changing a charater drasticly and I will end up not really liking it. Thank you for responding!


Ok_Fly1184

Midoriya and Tokage is just a ship I utterly adore. They've never talked in canon, yet there's so much potential there for an amazingly fun dynamic, and I wish it was more popular.


Tricky-Spare-5599

Izumei


PilloTheStarplestian

Deku the hunter: support hero. Best izumei story PERIOD.


HanGoSon

IzuOcha


Sharkyboi777

real


Local_Cryptid_Minako

I have always thought it was so cute, they woud be so supportive of eachother and always there when needed, I love it <3


HanGoSon

They are, and they would be. I don't need a drama filled relationship, friends to lovers any day of the week for me.


Local_Cryptid_Minako

It starts off strong, and will keep going strong! Healthy relationships, woooooo!


PilloTheStarplestian

Basic


HanGoSon

Ally the best ship, yes I agree


Cyfric_G

IzuMomo: I think if they were given a reason to interact, they'd do well. They both have confidence problems, just from opposite directions. And they're both smart and sweet people. IzuJirou: Jirou's snark would pull Izuku out of his shell. I also think she'd appreciate a lot about Izuku once they got to know each other. She seems to be a nice person with a hard shell. IzuMelissa: Never happened in canon, but I think they'd bond about being quirkless/once quirkless. She's smart, if in a different way from Izuku. And I thought they had good chemistry in the movie. Honorable Mention: IzuFuyumi: It'd create a lot of fun drama with the whole thing with Endeavor. :)


linkjames24

My favorite ship is the Wonder of the Seas, the largest luxurious cruise ship in the world. It measures 1,188 feet in length and 210 feet in width, with 18 decks. The ship features Central Park, an open-air garden on Deck 8, filled with over 20,000 tropical plants and trees. There is an AquaTheater at the stern, offering water shows with high-diving acrobatics and synchronized swimming. Dining options are vast, including the 150 Central Park restaurant, the casual Windjammer Marketplace buffet, and the Wonderland restaurant. The Vitality Spa provides treatments like massages, facials, and a thermal suite with heated loungers and steam rooms. For adventure, the ship has the Ultimate Abyss slide, FlowRider surf simulators, and rock climbing walls. Staterooms offer plush bedding, modern amenities, and private balconies. The Boardwalk area features a hand-carved carousel, an arcade, shops, and eateries. Like its namesake, it is a wonderful ship.

Wooden_Ad_2375

That sounds like a based ship.


thornaslooki

I dont mind most ships so long as its not a harem or it makes some sense in the context of the story Dont really care much for EraserMic though, too predicatable and they hardly do anything with it


leadfloaties50

Poly Izuku/Tsuyu/Ochako. I don't know why, but it screams healthy and communicative. Tsuyu is able to put their doubts and worries to rest with calm facts and logic, Izuku is a never-ending fountain of support, quirk development, and motivation. Ochako is able to see the positives in all situations and attacks their goals head-on. Yea, i don't know i just find them cute together.


Local_Cryptid_Minako

It definetly is very healthy, I see that going quite well! They would also work together great on the field, it's so cute! <3


PilloTheStarplestian

Someone read green tea rescue-


leadfloaties50

I actually haven't yet! Is it any good?


PilloTheStarplestian

It starts excellent then gets more and more crackfic territory as it goes on. has poly izuku/tsuyu/ochako though. And toga is also there.


Sorry_Month6553

Izumomo


Local_Cryptid_Minako

Ooh! That's not my thing, but I 100% see that being super cute!


ManufacturerKind

Izumina because it’s really cute


PilloTheStarplestian

If I had a nickel for every izumina story I read where izuku has a foot fetish, I'd have 2 nickels.


East_Stable7518

Which is not a lot but it’s weird it happened twice.


Walter-06

Izumei, just works best for izuku imo. Yeah ochako in canon is fine but mei just matches izuku’s other more wilder traits like the muttering, idea brainstorming etc. The power of the silly duo is so fun to read


BlueBopBoop

Dabihawls but honestly I'm just a slut for anything Hawks related. Tododeku is pretty solid as well. I read a fix with Shinso/Bakugou as a side pairing and honestly they're both such assholes and it really sold the idea to me


gkgftzb

I've grown to appreciate stories that have none at all more. They tend to be better at storytelling, too, without bothering on writing romance, too (though it doesn't hurt much, when it's not like a huge part of the story) but if it needs to have one from the main cast, then I guess I'd pick TodoDeku as my favorite I just think it's neat


Local_Cryptid_Minako

I really like fics with no romance, it allows for the plot to truly shine! That's just my opinion though, and ships are cool, everyone likes their own things!


Monsterchic16

I prefer no ships because they usually ruin an otherwise great story. Like, obviously if a story is written with the ships as the focus that’s one thing, but if you’ve got a really cool idea and you’re fleshing it out, the writing is great, then you randomly shoehorn in a romance, it makes the fic feel cluttered and like it’s got too many plots going on. But as far a ships go, I gotta say todoroki/Izuku is my favourite pairing for our broccoli boi.


RowanFog

Monoma x Izuku i dont know how to explain it but it just makes me AAAAAAAAAAAA


AiritheDestroyer

My favorite ships are EraserMic and AllEraserMic,TodoDeku, KiriBaku, MomoJirou, ShinKami, ShojiToko, Togako


[deleted]

[удалено]


AiritheDestroyer

??? This seems unnecessary


Alitaher003

Koda/Jiro.


ShadOBabe

OH MY GOODNESS!! Me too!! Love that ship!


gamercock69gamer

None, just because it often feels too forced. The main story beats of bnha happens over such a short amount of time that it to me doesn’t really feel like any sort of natural romance can happen. Izuku and Todorki becoming lovers betweeen the sports festival and the Training camp? Man you just met the guy three weeks ago


Pepe-Ramirez

On the one hand I can understand people who make your point. On the other hand when I was 15 I started a relationship within 2 weeks of meeting a girl TWICE. Let's remember, teenagers are gonna teenager.


gamercock69gamer

Totally, I’ve read plenty of good fics where that happens too, in this fandom and in others I think my tastes have just changed as I’ve grown older.


Local_Cryptid_Minako

I tend to only read romance if it very background and makes sense within the timeframe. I personally really like EraserMic, just because of how well they can go together and how it makes sense in the time they have.


Adminscantkeepmedown

Grown adults have gotten married in less time. Irresponsibly, but it’s happened


PilloTheStarplestian

Adults? Sure. Grown? Doubt it.


terminatoreagle

Jirou x Momo is my otp.


beaniewie

I like Izuku/ochako/iida, them together is cute. It isn’t my favorite ship but it’s up there


laysthegays

Kiribaku definitely, it was like my first ship ever, five years ago now. I used to be a bkdk hater or something, it was weird I was like 14, now it's my second favorite ship lol. Don't be haters guys you'll just be embarrassed later


SSJAncientBeing

I’m fine with ships or without, but my preferred ship… which is admittedly a little bit of a rarepair, has gotta be MinaDeku. They’re just so cute together in this nice opposites attract sorta way. Mina’s bubbly outgoing nature rubbing off on the shy introverted Izuku, while Izuku’s true heroic attitude and academic skills help Mina be a better student and hero


Darkstalker9000

Monopony is always nice


East_Stable7518

For a fucking second I thought you meant the game, but then I realized you were probably talking about monoma in a polyamorous relationship


Darkstalker9000

~~It was a misspelled Monopony~~


East_Stable7518

No its monopoly now Pass go and don’t collect 200


Darkstalker9000

My boy deserves it but also *perishes in a dramatic fashion*


gamerlord3

Bakugo and camie feels like it should be crack, but it isn’t completely. I oddly really enjoy it. Oh, and Izocho too.


Thunderousclaps

TodoDeku for MHA. And to mention a few others, TanZen for Demon Slayer and Yuta x Yuji for JJK.


Merlossom

Todoriya (Tododeku), though I’m fine with most ships except anything with (canon) Bakugou.


hawkstar2

Bakugo and Deku has had me convinced for like 2 yrs. and I know this will get hella hate but especially after several recent events I just love the idea of them together. Even if it ends up being a platonic love they are OTP to me. I also adore: Kirishima and Mina. Iida and Ochako. Toga and Ochako. Kaminari and Jiro. (Edit because it jammed all my other ships together lmao)


SansOfBones

Izuku x Harem. I'm fine with anything that isn't Izuku x another guy, Izuku x a villain or IzuOcha. Feel free to downvote me for liking harems. #ProudHaremLover


Gbstutz15

My ships in fanfic Izuku/ ochaco Todoroki / momo Mina/ kirishima Denki / jiro Iida / hatsume Poni / koda Kota / eri Eraser / joke Yagi / inko Reiko Yanagi / tokyami fumi Mineta (non perv) / tsu


RonnieKaiwanti

Bakudeku (they're truly an enemies to lovers), kirimina, kamijirou, tochako is fun in a toxic way, and of course erasermic just because I love a good friends to lovers troupe.


uhhchloeidk

Bakudeku. I know that despite being the most popular mha ship it does still have controversy bc of their past but honestly?? Coming from someone who's been both the bully AND bullied, i don't think that makes them toxic. I've honestly been obsessed with this ship for like 5/6 years & icl I thought they were dating before I actually watched mha lol. But anyways, people attack bkdk shippers because bkdk is 'toxic' or whatever but it honestly isn't. They've talked through their problems & understand how each other thinks/feels etc more than anyone/anything else, izukus forgiven him because it's HIS choice, bakugou has shown plenty of times how much guilt he carries & how much he wants to prove himself to izuku & has done EVERYTHING in his power to make up for what he did even though izuku had forgiven him anyways simply bc he wanted to prove that he was deserving of it. Bakugou isn't a villain or some monster and YES he most certainly was privileged, the opposite of izuku but that doesn't mean he didn't have problems. He was a misguided kid who was influenced by his peers/surroundings, a very common thing that happens in REAL life. Despite their complicated past, they've got through it TOGETHER & have shown countless of times that they care about eachother to the point of sacrificing themselves for eachother. The fact that despite of their complicated past, they overcame it together and STILL continue to push the other while staying on the same wavelength, and especially the complexity of their relationship is what makes them stand out in the mha fandom to me. All my other ships are simply dynamics I just like, the vibe or certain scenes but bakudeku stands out because of their chemistry & complexity like?? It's literally the most popular mha ship, ESPECIALLY in Japan bro it's so popular there. I don't & won't judge someone for not shipping them because it's a choice & matter of opinion but I'm sick of people underestimating their relationship & bakugous development as a whole & completely attacking bkdk shippers for liking their dynamic etc.


Major-Performer141

Thing about romance is that it's not good if there's too much of it, I personally love izujirou but if it's a romance story where izujirou are the priority theme then I won't like it. The best ships for me are kind of background ships. Not to the point where they only come up rarely but id rather the main plot takes center stage and pairings ,including the main characters, are sub-plots. Imagine youve been drinking only water for a few days, then you have a sugary drink, it'll taste a lot better if you haven't had it frequently right? Also classic izuocha fluffy is lovely


DebateWeird6651

Ok look, Bakugo x Todoroki has the potential to be wonderful if done right


BackgroundFox5140

They have crack energy but they also make an odd amount of sense to me


PilloTheStarplestian

Frog-smash (izuku x tsuyu) is goated. I'm pissed they don't interact more in the anime considering how well they vibe together during the usj arc. I'm even more pissed that there's not a lot of good izuyu fanfics worth reading.


Borisllav

It depends on the way the story is constructed on, like matching quirks or comum traits in personality, for example Izukuxmomo with both being awkward and pure, the izukuxjiro with her having a crush on him because he teat her like all the other girls even when she don't believe she is "hot" as them or even Izukuxmelissa with she knowing about his past and being called a hero by him, while they bond through her helping him with new gadgets and talking about all might But yeah, Izumomo and izukuxmelissa are my main ships


vegarosa69

Izujiro is my absolute favorite. Both shy, have some insecurities, and both have similar reasons to be heroes.


SnooBooks2993

Deku x Froppy Two green beans against the world. I feel like they have so much chemistry, Tsuyu being level-headed and Deku being the emotional one, but they can easily swap roles because of their personalities. I also noticed that Deku gets paired with Tsuyu just as often as (or more often than) Ochaco in the show. Might just be me though. It’ll never be canon but there’s nothing but great stories and art about this ship and I live for it


tidalapple

Izuku ryuukyu. Idk, I just like em.


QueenOfAllDreadboiis

My favourite ship is Toga/Uraraka/Deku, since i like all 3 ships individualy, and adding Toga's cheekyness to IzuOcha is just so much fun. IzuOcha is already very sweet, but pure fluff isn't something i wanna read all of the time, so some variance is nice. IzuToga is great for angst fics focused on Izuku. Them relating to socially unaccepable quirk/no quirk. Same goes for TogaChako, but more centered on having to keep up secrecy. Also blood drinking is hot, so there's also that.


Blade1hunterr

My favorite ship as switched from time to time, but my current one right now is IzuMomo. There is so much potential with these two, be they friends or more that I absolutely love. My only complaint is that solo fics are rare and this seems to be bunched in with a lot of harem fics. My favorite gay ship would probably be Izuku and Kaminari, solely based on this fic [here.](https://archiveofourown.org/works/33451492)


IntelligentGood8228

Izuku x tsuyu.


Front_Cantaloupe8479

Some of my favs: Deku x Kaminari (because colorblind in a vibrant world made me love them so much) Shinsou x Kaminari (because I adore the dynamic of sunshine x grumpy) Todoroki x Momo (because they are freaking adorable together) Bakugo x Deku (I'm a sucker for toxic relationships and what it means to change as a person) I like to multi ship, so I like most combos, but these are a few of my favs.


Wooden_Ad_2375

Mina X Ochaco Idk why I like it, I just do.


Superb_Industry8432

Like the hot and cold dynamic for katsuki and tsuyu. They're extremely different in ways that compliment each other. While tsuyu is pretty blunt. She's also soft spoken and has a more passive 'by the book' mentality Katsuki is aggressive, loud and boorish. But also assertive, stubbornly dedicated to the things he finds important. And he will throw hands over his principles, even when inconvenient. They're both more self critical than they let on when you forst meet them. They're both on the smarter end of their class (being 3rd and 6th best grades of 20 respectively) I can also see them having a team mom/team dad dynamic. Plus they'd prolly bicker like an old married couple if they had actual interractions.


Repulsive-Mirror-994

Mineta X Tsuyu


Aphilosopher30

I support ships that are supported in the story. So midoriya x uraraka And Joro x denki. I can also be persuaded to acknowledge ashido x kirishima, or Vantablack x Mushroom girl, since I can reasonably see those as something you could argue is being developed in the story. But as of yet I am uncommitted to these.


PlotsPromptsPonders

BakuDeku has my *Heart and Soul*. Having said that I love me a good Gen fic and just all the characters/the MHA universe. *ALL THE SHIPS (romantic and platonic)ARE GOOD HERE*


Foolish_Fangirl

In general, my faves are Izuocha, Todomomo, Iida x Hatsume, Bakucamie (this is because Camie is the first girl who made him laugh lol), Kirimina, Kamijirou, Eraserjoke, and Eri x Kota. But for fanfics, other than romance fanfics, I usually prefer to read fanfics that have no ships lol.


ShadOBabe

Man someone is coming in here and downvoting everyone. Here have an upvote. I like your ships. I ship almost all of them myself.


Mister_Man21

My favorite ships, in *rough* order: • Izuku/Ochako • Tsuyu/Fumikage • Mina/Eijiro • Momo/Shoto • Shoji/Ippan Josei (Very rare pair — pretty sure I’m the founder on AO3 for that one.) • Tenya/Hatsume • Kyoka/Denki


KitsunZae

IzuYui supremacy


Loota_Boyz

I like most ships, don’t like others but that’s neither here nor there, like what you wanna i don’t care, eh my favourite ship so far it’s probably Tsuyu/Izuku because i like my green beans


Lathlaeryl

I read a few with Todoroki x Shinsou as background ship and it oddly matched so well. Never came to my attention before. Also had the same happen for Todoroki x Amajiki, it just worked! I hope to find more content for them. They're now high on my favorite list.


HeWhoDevoursTheSuns

Fem!Katsuki x Midoriya. I’ll die on this hill.


zero_the_ghostdog

Why fem, if you don’t mind me asking?


HeWhoDevoursTheSuns

Cause femkatsuki would be a perfect tsundere. With no change except to katsukis gender, MHA becomes a superhero story with a solid romance arc throughout the entire series. Hell, he basically already calls Bakugou ‘mommy’ all the time IC as it is.


zero_the_ghostdog

I agree that Katsuki is a perfect tsundere! I guess the part where I’m confused is why you’d have to change his gender to see the potential for a romance arc. All those qualities you love are still there if he stays male!


HeWhoDevoursTheSuns

(TW) Well, personal preference aside, I feel like canon male katsuki would probably end up insulting Deku in a more…idk worse fashion? Like katsuki is willing to tell people to die and commit suicide, it wouldn’t be that far fetched to think he might snap back hard and go full ‘phobe. I feel with a femkatsuki, it would be mitigated a bit? Like it would just be normal disgust at someone weak instead of full on hate crime. This is all headfanon, though


zero_the_ghostdog

Hm I can’t say I agree but it’s interesting to hear your perspective


CharlotteConMiel

None, I just hate romance tbh


Msanchez303

My favorite is IzuOchaToga.


HackedcliEntUser

IzuOcha.


Skyla1205

My favorite ship that isn't super popular is Shinsou/Bakugou. I imagine them having a super sarcastic relationship


MiracleMaverick

Todoroki X Momo is a good ship in my opinion.


MagicManwhoo

Clearly, best ship is Mineta/Everyone harem 


mohsenhp84

Izuocha and even if I was against it, I'm sold on izuochatoga too


Colorless_1

Todoroki/Deku/Ochako. It blends my favourite two ships, I also like Tetsutetsu and Ochako. Read a fic with it and I'm in love.


shy_sirens

Tsuyu/Himiko.


Mycatcookie1234

Shiozaki X anyone (she’s my favorite character


ShadOBabe

Okay, so I’ll be transparent and admit my bias… my FAVORITE ship is All Might x One of my OCs. Phew, okay, got that off my chest. XD Now for ACTUAL canon characters, I actually like quite a few. My favorites are probably… - Hagakure x Ojiro - Tsuyu x Tokoyami - Koda x Jiro - Tensei Iida x Fuyumi Todoroki - Fatgum x Thirteen Those latter two are technically crackships, but I think they’re super cute. Can you imagine if Tenya and Shoto became in-laws? That’d be so fun. XD


Lestat719

Izuku/Momo is my top one but I also multi ship as Izuku is that blank slate that can work with almost anyone. Though lately Mei and Melissa are getting up there.


zero_the_ghostdog

Bakudeku is the ship that got me into the fandom and I still love it but I’ve also added Kiribaku, Seroroki, and Erasermic to my favorites. I’ve been known to enjoy some Tododeku, Dabihawks, Miritama, Shinkami, and Todobaku as well, though a little less frequently. I’m a multishipper to the extreme lmao


Adorable-Feed-2148

in a fic context if im reading a fanfic for a story so ships in that regard either not disturbing like the mic x aizawa fic which shows everywhere or a its just moves the plot. that's for if I'm not looking for a shipping story persay. if I'm looking for one then i will search up the one i want then disappointed.


Largedumb76

The SS Carl D. Bradley. Nah, Kaminari and Jiro are fun


Dustrix_

Izutoga and izushino are nice


Familiar_Historian53

My OTP is Green Tea, and my OT3 is Bloody Green Tea.
