Just curious, but what is your favorite Ojiro ship?
Personally, mine is OjiToru (Ojiro x Hagakure).
Hmm. Good question. I don't think I have a particular favourite. I'm a multishipper, so I enjoy seeing him with different characters for different reasons.
(These are in no particular order):
Arguably the closest thing to a canon relationship in MHA, it's clear they have a strong bond and are close enough to share their worries with each other. Wholesome and supportive, plus Ojiro nearly lost his mind when he thought Hagakure kissed him during that one mission, and she ran straight into his arms when she was upset after discovering the UA traitor; they're adorable.
I absolutely adore Kaminari's tail fluff obsession. Ojiro is so unbothered in every panel where Kaminari is playing with his tail, so he must do it all the time. Plus, there's that cute panel at the hot springs where Kaminari's splashing Ojiro in the water. Ojiro is the chill boyf' to Kaminari's silly.
I love a good enemies to lovers. Saying that, I also love that Ojiro doesn't have the capacity to hold a grudge and immediately welcomes Shinsou to the heroes course once he's finally moved across. It's a ship where I see Shinsou having lots of guilt/insecurity and needing reassurance that he's forgiven, with Ojiro being the endlessly reassuring boyfriend, happy to squash any of Shinsou's issues immediately.
Honestly, I would love to see Ojiro with anyone. He gets so much shtick, when in reality he would make an excellent down-to-earth partner.
Thank you for the ask! ❤️
[Extra: Waffling about an OC ship under the cut]
I also once made an OC specifically to pair with Ojiro, called Mahoro Mimi.
Ojiro usually doesn't like being seen as ordinary, so Mahoro was made to be the opposite. She's a girl with a transformation quirk that turns her into a terrifying, demonic monster when she gets too emotional.
It's a pairing that focuses on each wanting what the other has; a way to stand out, and a way to blend in.
I really enjoy this pairing too, because it focuses on Ojiro learning to accept and love who he is, as well as helping someone else love themselves as they are.
GIVE THE TAILBEAN SOMEONE TO LOVE, HORIKOSHI, COME ON.
