Ship moments: comparison
Here is a comparison of all the main ships moments and how many are in manga, anime vs novels etc. Again, the moments are what any fan of the ship would consider a meaningful interaction, so of course we have something like "character A saving B and going full rage" here being compared to "character A sharing tea with character B", as I did not weight the different moments. Being that each ship is different, a tea sharing moment might be what is most loved about ship C, vs the angst of rage for ship D.
To do so, I made lists of all the moments so you can check which ones I considered.
The moments added are from these, and categorized as:
Manga (Manga)
Anime (if there are filler episodes or extra scenes not in the manga) (Bones)
OVAs (Bones)
Movies (Bones)
Novels (school briefs) (Novels)
Spin off manga (Team up mission up till volume 3) (Spin off)
Drama cds (unfortunately not all of them were translated) (Extra)
Exhibition skits between actors (from summaries of them) (Extra)
BNHA Ultra Stage additions (Extra)
I did not consider Smash given that it was an explicit parody and re-imagining, instead of extra material.
To look at all the lists you can check here.
This is the whole data:
As you can see, colors are the different manga+adaptation+extra.
Interestingly, Kirimina was the only ship that had no extra (anime or novels or other) moments, all the moments they had was in the manga. Following was Togachako, which had only manga, with a few added moments this last sixth season.
This is just for the manga (violet FF ships, pink FM ships, blue MM ships):
In the manga, Izuocha, Iidachako and Kamijirou are the top 3 F/M ships. The top 3 M/M ships by interaction are Bakudeku, Tododeku and Kiribaku which are also the top 3 ships on AO3 for the whole fandom.
Tsuchako was the top F/F ship, followed by Togachako.
Now, I wanted to see how much of these ships moments was due to the manga vs extra added material (from spin off to Bones added etc.).
And now, if we look at the percentages of non manga material:
On top we have Kacchako, with 67% of its ship moments (more than half) coming from non manga material (so extras and anime only scenes). Following we have Iidamomo, then Bakudeku, Kiribaku and Todobaku all above 60%.
As said before, the ship with no extra manga material was Kirimina, with 0%, following Togachako that only has 6%.
And to conclude, this is the final total:
