Shipping. Specifically Rare Pairs.

As I started BNHA, I was content on love pairs simply being Izuku and Ochako, and that was all. (They are still one of my faves, don’t worry!) As time went on, I started coming across fanfics of BNHA, and started to look at them, and I came across one fic that made me do a double take.

Rock n Roll High School by TheJoshuaTree87.

It’s a discontinued fic (hasn’t had any chapters since 2018 as of now) and it had these two as the main romantic pairing.

And at first, I was like…

…what?….

How would this possibly work?

The two of them are just so…opposite!

But I decided to read it anyway, out of mere curiosity.

Two things happened.

I enjoyed EVERY chapter.

And I ended up looking forward to seeing these two as a couple!

Again, this hasn’t been picked back up in ages, so I’m not holding my breath. But I actually enjoyed it!

After that, it got me into digging around, and I started looking up more about shipping and eventually the term rare pair (which this pair very much is).

And the more I understood it, the more I ended up enjoying it.

Because I see shipping as something just to let the mind explore and have fun! That’s what is important at the end of the day after all, isn’t it? As a little thing to distract you from the main storyline if you wish.

And over time, I’ve had a number of rare pairs that I particularly love. IzuMomo, IzuTooru, Kirichako, Iida and Aoyama, Shouji and Ibara, Momo and Satou, Jirou and Koda, to name a few. As for MinaToko, I still like it and it’ll have a special place in my heart, but there’s another ship involving Tokoyami and a pink-themed girl that lives rent free in my head.

My fav recovery photos from the end of the movie MHA:Heroes Rising

okay, so, this is similar to my post for two heroes where i listed all the ship moments :0 if it wasn’t super obvious THIS POST IS ENTIRELY SPOILERS.

bakudeku

AAAAAAAAAAAA

there were many “KACCHAN”s in varying degrees of pain

deku holds bakugou back when he tries to murder a bunch of kids

rowdy boys roughhousing each other because haHAAHAH BANTER

bakugou’s popsicle dies while he’s distracted watching midoriya give an inspirational speech to katsuma (little boy)

they fight against nine together like 3 times and hold hands 2/3 times

uh midoriya almost dies bc on nine but then bakugou flies in and blasts him right in time. soulmates. (actually mahoro (little girl) makes a giant illusion of deku but bakugou only took like 30 more seconds to get there meaning he was already heading towards there—)

flashbacks to their childhood and all might telling them that they should help each other be stronger

rivals that stay together get beat up to a pulp together on multiple occasions

MIDORIYA PASSES DOWN OFA TO BAKUGOU WHAT THE FUCK?? (i’m still confused how it worked?? like did he eat his blood?? his sweat?? his dried up skin???????)

edit: i’m dumb

but anyway, they do this really tender thing where they’re grasping for each other’s hands and they can only reach the other’s fingertips but then they hold hands and ofa gets transferred yeah

y’all know the iconic “save to win, win to save” from the trailer right

the first thing deku asks when he wakes up is “is kacchan okay?” that’s soft

bakugou forgets about getting ofa, goddammit

they have matching broken arms by the end :))) HHAHAHAH help these children

deku stands next to bakugou on the ferry back to the mainland and bakugou doesn’t shout at him for once wow

this movie was created for bkdk stans, have fun

kiribaku

kirishima and bakugou are shown hanging out near each other at the agency

kirishima offers to help on one of the missions and bakugou says “you really think your quirk will help for something like that” and kirishima is like “hmm 🤔 you’re right...”

kirishima looks like the cutest fucking thing when his head is on the table and he says something about the island i forgot because he was so fucking adorable and this is kiribaku because he’s looking at bakugou while he’s talking

please explain what kaminari meant by kacchan and the bakugous (this isn’t necessarily krbk of course but 🤔🤔🤔)

remember that thing bakugou does in the anime where he pushes kirishima to the side and saves him from being turned into a meatball by shishikura?

he does that again but with the mummy guy

kirishima saying “bakUGOU” after bakugou says they need to kill the villains lmao

tokomina

i did not expect this

they fight against a villain with a quirk that can harden her hair

tokoyami says he can handle it by himself but mina still stays there

when mina gets stabbed in the leg by the villains hair projectile things tokoyami gets all edgy and goes Full Emo Mode

mina is covered by tokoyami’s cloak but idk if he threw it on her or what?

izuocha

“you really are deku!” “what does that mean?” “it means you’re a hero!!!” 😭😭😭😭😭

deku carries uraraka when she’s injured and she’s like “thanks :)”

todoiida

they’re with each other most of the time during the movie

when todoroki gets frustrated and tries to go after the monster villain, iida stops him

todoroki says he has a plan and iida is just like “:)”

when they have to run away, iida just picks up todoroki and zooms lol

todobakudeku

“did we do what we need to? midoriya... bakugou...”

there’s no heterosexual explaination

kirikami

they gang up on bakugou a lot haha

fight against the mummy villain together when bakugou is trapped (and fail but you know what)

todokiri

kirishima goes along with todoroki’s plan and todoroki holds on to him while he uses his ice to move them and kirishima uses unbreakable and?? fellas is it gay????

aomina

they clear out some rocks that fell from a landslide, it’s pretty neat

ashido helps aoyama up after he overused his naval laser

kamibaku

“kacchan”,,,, kaminari the mad lad

basically tells bakugou “you haven’t been doing shit for the agency lmao” because he really hasn’t

bakugou: *praises kaminari while calling him idiot*

kamisero

THE FISTBUMP!! THE FISTBUMP!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (class 1a is helped by pro heroes after the big battle and when kami and sero are next to each other they smile and then fistbump. adorable.)

momojirou

yaomomo over uses her quirk and she has to lie down. when she’s trying to lift herself to get up, jirou motions her to lay back down.

seroroki

they fight the monster-creature-thing villain with t e a m w o r k

ojirojirou (jiro squared?)

they fight together against nine (and fail but you know what)

kamimomojirou

kaminari and yaomomo overuse their quirks and jirou is very worried

bakusero

sero gets WREAKED by nine while trying to help deku and bakugou (his helmet was already broken and then it got completely knocked off with him on the ground haha this is fine) and bakugou shouts “SERO”

toorujirou

they hug once at the beginning idk lesbians

edit: more pairs that i forgot about >:0

aomomo

they tire themselves out after working together on the first attack on nine (and fail but you know what)

serochako

they set up this trap thing to stop the monster villain (and fail but you know what)

ojitoko
