Ochako Uraraka is a fan-favorite among the people who enjoy My Hero Academia, and it's no mystery why. There's a lot to like about Uraraka, from her constantly cheerful demeanor to her high emotional intelligence and level of compassion for her classmates no matter how much she has in common with them on the surface.

While there are some pretty obvious choices for who Uraraka will most likely end up with given the hints provided by the show, fans have a lot to say about how her love life should go. Let's take a look at both who Uraraka is likely to end up with and who fans are super hopeful about!

10 Fan Pick: Minoru Mineta

While this pick is an option purely because of the cringe factor, the only reason it's being entertained is for how ridiculous it is. Mineta is a notoriously hated character and matching him up with one of the most beloved female characters in the show would be simply absurd, but in a way that's at least interesting.

Mineta is pretty much a pervert. That is his whole character, so the idea is ludicrous. While there isn't huge support for this ship, the sheer goofiness of the idea was enough to make this idea worth mentioning.

9 Likely Pick: Izuku Midoriya

Deku using One For All

This is the most obvious ship in the whole series, and while fans don't seem to be behind it generally because it's so likely, it does make sense for the characters. Izuku Midoriya, also known by his hero name, Deku, is the obvious choice for Uraraka to end up with.

Not only do they frequently interact, but it's a major plot point involving a lot of other characters that Uraraka has feelings for him, and that she ends up confessing those to her friends. Oh, and Deku probably shares those feelings, regardless of if he's thought about them as much as her.

8 Fan Pick: Shoto Todoroki

Todoroki Stern

Shoto Todoroki and Uraraka don't have much interaction onscreen, however that's not really where their chemistry would exist. Shoto Todoroki has an incredibly sordid past, a difficult upbringing, and a complicated relationship with his parents.

There are parts of their lives that are opposites since Todoroki pretty much despises his dad and Uraraka cares about her parents, going so far as to prioritize a position as a Pro Hero to accumulate wealth to help her parents. That being said, maybe they could come together as a result of their shared qualities, while their opposite qualities complement each other.

7 Likely Pick: Katsuki Bakugo

While Bakugo and Uraraka don't have the closest relationship, there are still pieces of their interactions that show there may be potential for something to blossom. Bakugo and Uraraka both respect each other mutually after fighting, as evidenced by the fact that Bakugo addressed her by her last name, which is only something he does after seeing her hold her own in a fight.

While Bakugo and Uraraka talk to each other about the former's jealousy of Deku, which just causes him to be angrier. That being said, maybe if Uraraka can't have Deku, she'll settle for his rival as revenge.

6 Fan Pick: Kyoka Jiro

Kyoka Jiro and Uraraka aren't particularly close in the show, although they do interact occasionally. One of the main reasons that they are shipped frequently by the fandom is that it only makes sense that fans would want two of the most popular main female characters to be in a relationship at some point in the future.

They also have compassion and legitimate care for their friends in common, making them perhaps emotionally compatible.

5 Likely Pick: Tenya Iida

Tenya Iida and Ochako Uraraka were originally introduced to each other by Deku since they were both pretty good friends with him. They probably don't seem like the most likely pick, but at the same time, they have spent a lot more time together than a lot of the characters in the show.

Aside from that, Uraraka trusts him with information that she's only ever told Deku, like the fact that her motivation for becoming a hero is to make enough money to support her parents.

4 Fan Pick: Mina Ashido

Mina is one of Uraraka's best friends in the series, and they are seen in situations with each other time and time again. Although Uraraka and Mina have their spats, especially after the latter bugs the former about her suspected crush on Deku.

That being said, once Mina was able to drag the information out of Uraraka, they talked it out and stayed on good terms. While they aren't necessarily a likely couple, maybe Mina's hopefulness for a relationship between Deku and Uraraka is a front to disguise her own feelings.

3 Likely Pick: Tsuyu Asui

This is another of the most popular female characters in the show, so the logic used with Earphone Jack might also have a little pull here.

While it was most likely just a friendly gesture, Froppy, or Tsuyu Asui, and Uraraka have had a pretty close relationship. This is mostly shown in two examples of very wholesome physical affection, like when Uraraka held Froppy's hand or when the former held the latter to comfort her after she had a breakdown.

2 Fan Pick: Mei Hatsume

MHA mei hatsume

This one is pretty controversial due to the bitter rivalry between the two characters; that being said, that makes the forbidden romance even more interesting for fans.

Mei Hatsume and Ochako Uraraka are almost always at each other's throats thanks to their feelings for Deku. While Uraraka and Deku are the most likely couple in the series, maybe the former is only jealous of Mei because she realizes what a good catch she could be.

1 Likely Pick: Yuga Aoyama

An interesting but pretty compelling idea is that perhaps Yuga Aoyama and Uraraka could one day find love. This is despite him not being a major character and the one who first helped Uraraka realize her feelings for Deku.

They fought together, Uraraka was distracted by her thoughts of Deku, and Yuga pointed it out, allowing her to regain focus. All of that being said, Yuga also implied that if Deku ever left school, he'd be right there by her side. Who knows? Maybe he will be.
