History ShipperOnDeck / WesternAnimation

* In ''WesternAnimation/TeenageMutantNinjaTurtles2012'', a newly woken April perks up and demands all the squeeworthy details when she finds out that Leonardo has met a girl. She's clearly ready and willing to support him and his new love interest (possibly understanding that this is something he can't tell his brothers). Then she finds out that the girl he's talking about is a member of the evil Foot Clan, and [[ArmorPiercingSlap proceeds to show him her disapproval.]]

** During the first three seasons Jane Lane shipped her older brother Trent with her best friend Daria.

* ''WesternAnimation/DannyPhantom'': Tucker ships his best friends, Danny and Sam, long before either of them starts to realize their feelings for one another. Not to mention Danny's Parents, the kids at his school, even Danny's ghost enemies ship them together at one point or another. Even ''their dreams'' shipped them together.

** Jun does this for the famous Zutara pairing, starting first when Zuko asks her to track Aang with Katara's necklace, as she states "Aw, is it your girlfriend?" or something like that. Her second appearance causes an [[SheIsNotMyGirlfriend I'm Not Her Boyfriend]] moment. Admittedly, it seems to be more of a teasing thing.

* On ''WesternAnimation/SouthPark'' episode ''Cartman Finds Love'', Cartman becomes obsessed with pairing up new girl Nichole and Token, [[TokenMinorityCouple since they're both black]]. So much so, in fact, that when he learns Nichole has a crush on Kyle (and vice versa), he tells her that [[FoeYay he and Kyle]] are a gay couple. He even [[spoiler:follows Kyle on his date with Nichole, professes his love for him over the megascreen and serenades him with John Michael Montgomery's "I Swear"]] just so Nichole and Token can be together.

** Most of Paris seems to ship Ladybug/Cat Noir, with reporters trying to get them to "confess their love for each other", a romance arc being added in both the official [[ShowWithinAShow ladybug and Cat Noir movie]] and in Marc and Nathaniel's comic about the two heroes, and most Parisians diligently following the Ladyblog for new gossip about the heroic duo.

*** Both Adrien and Marinette's kwami companions are insistent that they should admit their feelings to each other- so strongly, in fact, that it's become {{Fanon}} that they know about the [[LovesMyAlterEgo love square]] and are trying to resolve it. In "Lady Wi-Fi", Plagg berates Adrien for respecting Marinette-as-Ladybug's desire to keep her identity secret, and later in "Dark Cupid", Tikki seems oddly certain that Adrien's poem was about Marinette. [[spoiler:Wayzz, Master Fu's kwami, shares their opinion.]]
*** By season two, most of the class (minus Chloe and Sabrina) have outright stated that they know Marinette is head over heels in love with Adrien, and they're all 100% completely behind her.

** Steven also ships Lars/Sadie, to Lars' displeasure. At one point, he assumed they were already married. [[spoiler: By the time of ''Future'' he is downright shocked to find out that they never became an item and thinks that they did because they did not talk things out with each other, only for them to clarify that they willingly split up and ''did'' talk things out, they just didn't worked and they decided to split.]]

** Cyborg shipped Robin and Starfire. It even became a plot point in one episode and ''WesternAnimation/TeenTitansTroubleInTokyo''. "It's about time."
** In ''ComicBook/TeenTitansGo'', the comics based off of the Western Animation, Starfire seems to ship Beast Boy/Raven. "Perhaps Raven was teleported into an alternate dimension where she and Beast Boy are madly in love and ask me to be their maid of the bride at their matrimonial ceremony?"

* ''WesternAnimation/Amphibia": Anne explicitly says that she refuses to let the Sprigivy ship go down and repeatedly puts effort into getting them together.

** Marinette's parents look delighted when Marinette invites Adrien over, and repeatedly offer him their home-baked food.
** They're also supportive when Marinette confesses her love to Chat Noir (in an attempt to protect her SecretIdentity), to the point that her father gets akumatized when Chat Noir turns her down.
** Both Adrien and Marinette's kwami companions are insistent that they should admit their feelings to each other- so strongly, in fact, that it's become {{Fanon}} that they know about the [[LovesMyAlterEgo love square]] and are trying to resolve it. In "Lady Wi-Fi", Plagg berates Adrien for respecting Marinette-as-Ladybug's desire to keep her identity secret, and later in "Dark Cupid", Tikki seems oddly certain that Adrien's poem was about Marinette. [[spoiler:Wayzz, Master Fu's kwami, shares their opinion.]]

** Not to mention the fact that by season two, most of the class (minus Chloe and Sabrina) have outright stated that they know Marinette is head over heels in love with Adrien, and they're all 100% completely behind her.

* The ''WesternAnimation/AdventureTime'' episode "All The Little People" is a parody of this. It features Finn finding miniature versions of himself and all the other characters. He nudges them together to get into romantic relations, but it doesn't end well for them.

* ''WesternAnimation/TheLegendOfKorra'':
** [[BookWorm Jinora]] and [[GenkiGirl Ikki]] ship Makorra.
** In the GrandFinale Jinora may also be one to [[spoiler: Korra and Asami]] if the FascinatingEyebrow and smirk she gives to seeing [[spoiler: Asami laying her hand on Korra's shoulder]] is anything to go upon. At the very least she seems to be the one of the only people in the show to recognize that the two have feelings for each other.
*** ''ComicBook/TheLegendOfKorraTurfWars'' seems to confirm this, as she squees upon seeing [[spoiler: Korra and Asami kiss]].
** Interestingly, Mako himself in one episode comes off as a shipper for Korra and his brother Bolin. [[spoiler: Hilarious in hindsight considering Book One ends not just with Mako having feelings for Korra himself, but declaring his love for her.]]
** Bolin is one for [[StreetUrchin Kai]] and [[BookWorm Jinora]], squealing like a fangirl.
--->'''Bolin:''' Oooooh, [[OverprotectiveDad Tenzin's]] not gonna like this!
** PlayedForLaughs when Yin meets Korra and Asami and asks Mako why he isn't dating any [[IfOnlyYouKnew nice girls like them]].
** Korra also supports Kai/Jinora and believes the two have a connection.
** Kai, Varrick and Zhu Li ship Bolin and Opal. Kai expressed concern when their relationship started to strain thanks to Bolin working under Kuvira, who betrayed Opal's family. In Varrick's fabricated story that recaps the first three seasons, it ends with Opal eventually forgiving Bolin. Ultimately. Zhu Li is the one who convinces Opal to forgive Bolin.
* ''WesternAnimation/TheSpectacularSpiderMan'':
** Done in a roundabout way by Mary Jane. She goes to the school dance with Peter, but later meets and befriends Gwen when she transfers to Midtown High. Upon realizing that [[UnluckyChildhoodFriend Gwen has feelings for Peter]], she gives her a pep talk which [[spoiler:helps convince Gwen to spontaneously kiss Peter in the season 1 finale.]] She continues to support the possibility of a pairing between them throughout season 2.
** Aunt May, however, seems to ship Peter/Mary Jane from the moment she meets the girl, needling her nephew to meet her. She ultimately is the one who arranges that one date they had, by convincing Betty (who's twenty) that she's too old to go with Peter and then arranging Mary Jane to go behind his back.
--->'''Peter:''' Aunt May, you're an evil mastermind!
* ''WesternAnimation/{{Kaeloo}}'': One episode had Stumpy set up a date for Kaeloo and Mr. Cat. Granted, [[ItMakesSenseInContext he was supposed to benefit from this]], but still, he did imply that he knew they liked each other. In another one, it becomes more clear as the main four make a TV show based on themselves and Stumpy says he wants "the cat and the frog" to become an OfficialCouple. Kaeloo and Mr. Cat are a frog and a cat respectively.
* Keef in the unfinished episode, "Return of Keef" of ''WesternAnimation/InvaderZim''. That guy is...very obsessed over the Zim/Dib pairing.
* ''WesternAnimation/KimPossible'':
** Ron being kissed by Kim often makes his naked mole rat Rufus say "awww" in response. By comparison, he acts disgusted if Ron gets kissed by a different girl. And at the end of the movie, when they finally get together, but are still a little shy about it, he pushes them together to start them dancing.
** Even the villains seem to ship the heroes. In ''A Very Possible Christmas'' Drakken apparently ships Kim/Ron, even pushing them together under mistletoe [[spoiler:(it was actually parsley)]] as soon as Kim arrives; Shego ships Josh/Kim in ''Blush'' and then Kim/Ron in ''[[GrandFinale Graduation]]''.
** In the GrandFinale, Drakken's symbiotic flower ships Drakken and Shego together.
** Kim's mom also seemed to secretly ship [[OfficialCouple Kim/Ron]] for the first three seasons. Became not-so-secret in ''[[TheMovie So the Drama]]''. Her dad didn't so much ship them as ''not'' ship Kim with anyone else; her going to him for advice about boys other than Ron made him uncomfortable, but he seemed to have absolutely no qualms about their OfficialCouple status in the final season.
** By the end of ''So the Drama'', when Bonnie tries to ridicule Kim for finally dating "that loser" Ron, everyone else at the junior prom cheers, including the school janitor.
* In ''WesternAnimation/TheFairlyOddParents'', Cosmo and Wanda like seeing Timmy get kissed by Tootie.
** [[Film/AFairlyOddMovieGrowUpTimmyTurner The live-action film]] gives an odd inversion to this, in that Cosmo and Wanda spend much of the first half of the film trying to ''prevent'' Timmy and Tootie from getting together, since it would mean Timmy would officially be grown up and they'd have to leave him. [[spoiler:This eventually begins to change after Poof brings them to realize it's wrong to prevent Timmy from growing up, and by the end of the film, they're happy that Timmy and Tootie are finally together.]]

* ''WesternAnimation/{{Stoked}}'' sees Emma and Lo constantly wanting Reef and Fin to get together. They even text one another like giddy schoolgirls whenever they see the two of them doing anything vaguely romantic.
* ''WesternAnimation/TotalDrama'':
** Cody helps his friend Trent hook up with Gwen, [[IWantMyBelovedToBeHappy even though he also has a crush on her]]. In the same vein, Geoff and DJ could both tell that their friend Duncan and Courtney liked each other and playfully teased her about it.
** Duncan and DJ both gave Owen/Izzy a thumbs up in the 19th episode.
** {{Fanon}} often includes stories where characters play matchmaker for [[HoYay Noah and Cody]]. Usually includes Izzy, probably because on the show she once teased Noah about this.
** On ''WesternAnimation/TotalDrama World Tour,'' pretty much everyone (Gwen, Bridgette, Izzy, sort-of Heather) seems to ship Cody with [[StalkerWithACrush Sierra]]...''except'' Cody, who has a crush on Gwen. Tyler seems to like that pairing, though, since [[TalkingToHimself he helped Cody]] get a picture with her.
** Noah seems to ship Tyler/Lindsay, since he once offered Tyler advice about it. He also seems to have a talent at sensing attraction between people, since he noticed Alejandro's crush on Heather before anybody else.
** Sierra seems to have supported Duncan/Gwen ''before'' they got together, no doubt in part because it would [[PairTheSpares free up Cody to be with her]]. However, when they actually got together by making out behind Courtney's back, Sierra turns against them. (Though again, her animosity toward Gwen may be at least partially because Cody did ''not'' AbandonShipping when he found out, continuing to support and hit on Gwen despite her being in a relationship with somebody else.)
* ''WesternAnimation/TeenTitans'':
** Cyborg shipped Robin and Starfire. It even became a plot point in one episode and ''WesternAnimation/TeenTitansTroubleInTokyo''. "It's about time."
** In ''ComicBook/TeenTitansGo'', the comics based off of the Western Animation, Starfire seems to ship Beast Boy/Raven. "Perhaps Raven was teleported into an alternate dimension where she and Beast Boy are madly in love and ask me to be their maid of the bride at their matrimonial ceremony?"
** [[GreatGazoo Larry the Titan]] tries to be this for all the Titans, and steals [[LovePotion Cupid's (Eros's) arrows]] to do so, resulting in a series of [[SickeninglySweethearts love-gushing couples]] (but nothing canon, although Chesire and Speedy getting hit was a nod to their relationship in the mainstream comics) ranging from the understandable to the completely bizarre. In fact, the whole reason he did this was ''because'' of the Robin/Starfire moment in Tokyo above.
* ''WesternAnimation/WinxClub'':
** Amore, the pixie of love, obviously. She most blatantly ships Stella/Brandon and [[spoiler:Princess Amentia and her Unlucky Childhood Friend.]]
** In the episode where Helia was introduced, Amore and Chatta quickly come to the conclusion that he and Flora would make a cute couple.
** In season 3, it seems that Stella wanted Layla and Nabu (who at the time was using the fake name Ophir to hide his identity) to get together.
** Layla's boyfriend Nabu spends much of season 4 trying to help his best friend Riven save his [[BelligerentSexualTension relationship]] with Layla's best friend Musa.
* ''WesternAnimation/TheLoudHouse'':
** All [[MassiveNumberedSiblings ten Loud sisters]] are on board with Lincoln and Ronnie Anne, as is Ronnie Anne's Aunt Frida.
** In "Racing Hearts", Lori and Leni support Luna emotionally on her first date with Sam.
* ''WesternAnimation/PhineasAndFerb'':
** In "Summer Belongs to You!", Phineas seems supportive of Ferb/Vanessa and Candace/Jeremy (much to Isabella's frustration, since he's [[ObliviousToLove not noticing]] ''[[ObliviousToLove her]]'' [[ObliviousToLove affections]]).
** All the Fireside Girls ship Phineas/Isabella.
*** Notably, they're much less understanding of Ginger's [[WhatDoesSheSeeInHim crush on Baljeet]]. Milly and Katie go as far to revoke Ginger's "I Just Saw A Cute Boy" [[MeritBadgesForEverything accomplishment patch]].
** Stacy supports Jeremy/Candace.
** Candace, Phineas, and Ferb ship [[HappilyAdopted their parents]].
---> '''Ferb:''' Well, don't just stand there. ''Kiss her!''
** Averted with Little Suzy, who doesn't want her big brother to be with ANY other girl except for her. If she weren't so young, it'd be a little creepy; as it ''is'' it can sometimes be disturbing.
** Ferb has been shown to ship Phineas/Isabella in at least one episode ("Happy Birthday Isabella").
** And in the episode showing them as adults, we find out nearly every recurring character on the show except for Doofenshmirtz shipped Phineas/Isabella, and that was just because he had his own story going on at the time...
* ''WesternAnimation/JusticeLeague'':
** ComicBook/TheJoker shipped ComicBook/GreenLantern and Hawkgirl in [[AxCrazy his own quirky way]].
--->"Is it just me, or is there something going on between those two? Will ComicBook/GreenLantern ever admit to his feelings? Will Hawkgirl ever stop sublimating her passions with that big honkin' mace?! Will True Love conquer all? [[spoiler:''Not on my show!''" '''[[MomentKiller *BOOM*]]''']]
** And then, we have a few people who tried to encourage Franchise/{{Batman}} and Franchise/WonderWoman to get together. Wonder Woman liked this, but [[CelibateHero Batman will have none of it.]]
* Everyone who finds out Helga's deep dark secret on ''WesternAnimation/HeyArnold'' seems to be rooting for her. Her best friend Phoebe and Arnold's Grandpa Phil (who married a former childhood bully himself) will occasionally try to help lead [[ObliviousToLove Arnold]] in the right direction and [[ParodySue Lila]] is willing to drop out of her role as Juliet in a school play just so Helga can get the part (opposite Arnold). Lila does ''not'' like Arnold that way, and is more than happy to have him get together with someone who does.

* ''WesternAnimation/CodeLyoko'':
** Yumi's [[AnnoyingYoungerSibling little brother]] Hiroki ships Yumi and Ulrich. He makes several comments throughout the series, including one where Ulrich was fighting a [[GiantEnemyCrab Krabe]] that had entered the real world, and he shouts, "This is so awesome! I keep telling you, you gotta go out with this guy!" In a public street, in front of Yumi, Ulrich and both of Yumi's parents.
** Odd is definitely a Ulrich/Yumi shipper, even trying to advise Ulrich on the subject. Of course, Ulrich never follows his advices.

* Alfred from ''WesternAnimation/BatmanTheBraveAndTheBold'' is such a Batman/Catwoman shipper that he actually writes RealPersonFic about it.

* ''WesternAnimation/{{Daria}}'':
** During the first three seasons Jane Lane shipped her older brother Trent with her best friend Daria.
** In "Write Where It Hurts", Daria's last story has her sister [[LovableLibby Quinn]] married to [[AccidentalMisnaming Jaime]], one of her three constant suitors, while in another story [[TheDitz Jesse]] is apparently dating [[CoolLoser Jane]]. Of course, yet another story had [[CrackPairing Jane/Kevin]] in a GraduateHomageShot (with [[DumbJock Kevin]] as Elaine), so these probably shouldn't be taken too seriously.

* ''WesternAnimation/YoungJustice'':
** In season two, M'gann's "[[BloodBrothers little brother]]" Beast Boy ships her with Superboy, even though they've broken up at this point. (WordOfGod comments that, since M'gann has been PromotedToParent by this point, Gar is kind of like a kid whose parents divorced.) Superboy's pet [[AmplifiedAnimalAptitude Wolf]] also seems to dislike seeing M'gann and her new boyfriend, La'gaan.
** Kent Nelson shipped Artemis and Wally together long before they actually got together for real. His last words to Wally were to urge him to find his own spitfire like Kent's wife Inza, who never let Kent get away with anything.
** Aqualad claims that he knew [[spoiler:Miss Martian and Superboy were together]] before they did.
** In season two, ''Black Manta'', of all people ships [[spoiler:Aqualad/Tigress (Artemis)]]--he thinks they're a couple, and he clearly approves. Of course, he also [[TheMole thinks they're supervillains]], so...
* In ''WesternAnimation/XiaolinShowdown'', the good version Jack appears to ship Raimundo/Kimiko, even dragging Raimundo over to her and placing his hand on her shoulder in ''Time after Time''. Their reactions imply that this isn't the first time he's done this.
%%* The Canadian cartoon ''WesternAnimation/{{Detentionaire}}'' found a way to weaponize this trope.

* On ''WesternAnimation/SouthPark'' episode ''Cartman Finds Love'', Cartman becomes obsessed with pairing up new girl Nichole and Token, [[TokenMinorityCouple since they're both black]]. So much so, in fact, that when he learns Nichole has a crush on Kyle (and vice versa), he tells her that [[FoeYay he and Kyle]] are a gay couple. He even [[spoiler:follows Kyle on his date with Nichole, professes his love for him over the megascreen and serenades him with John Michael Montgomery's "I Swear"]] just so Nichole and Token can be together.
* ''{{WesternAnimation/Archer}}'''s Pam seems to ship Archer and Lana and [[OfficialCouple Cyril and Lana]]. She's shown to disprove of Cyril cheating on Lana in the first season and guilts Cheryl for initiating their affairs. She later encourages him to spy on Lana and Archer during a mission, mostly so she can spy on Archer and Lana in the hopes of watching have sex. Cheryl also teases Cyril about Archer and Lana hooking up, but this is likely just to mess with him.
* In ''Angel's Friends'', the BigBad ships Raf and Sulfus, since Raf is an angel and Sulfus is a demon, and their getting together would free her from her prison.
* In ''WesternAnimation/TeenageMutantNinjaTurtles2012'', a newly woken April perks up and demands all the squeeworthy details when she finds out that Leonardo has met a girl. She's clearly ready and willing to support him and his new love interest (possibly understanding that this is something he can't tell his brothers). Then she finds out that the girl he's talking about is a member of the evil Foot Clan, and [[ArmorPiercingSlap proceeds to show him her disapproval.]]
* In ''WesternAnimation/GeneratorRex'', Rex hints to Six at the end of ''A Family Holiday'' and ''Riddle of the Sphinx'' that Six and Holiday should get together.

* In the season 3 premiere of ''WesternAnimation/{{Superjail}}'', Jared and Charise act as this to the idea of the Warden and the Mistress getting together and try to manipulate them into having sex to do so. Although, it's more for their own sake, as they feel if their bosses get together, they themselves will be able to be together in a united jail. Unfortunately for them, their plan is sunk when it turns out that the Warden has no clue how to have sex, leaving Alice to sleep with the Mistress and cause her to abandon the idea of wanting to rule the jail.
* In ''WesternAnimation/BatmanBeyond'', Max Gibson supports [[OfficialCouple Terry/Dana]], usually by trying to smooth things over with Dana or giving Terry advice on how to make things up to her.
* The other members of ''WesternAnimation/{{WITCH}}'' ship Cornelia with Caleb. Will at one point wonders what is taking him so long to ask her out and when Hay Lin sees they might have a romantic moment together, she gives them the thumbs up before leaving them alone.

* [[CloudCuckoolander Mabel]] from ''WesternAnimation/GravityFalls,'' aside from being [[InLoveWithLove boy-crazy]] herself, has tried to matchmake on several occasions. The most prominent example is "The Love God"--seeing [[EmoTeen Robbie]] still depressed about his breakup with [[CoolBigSis Wendy]], she uses a LovePotion to hook him up with [[DeadpanSnarker Tambry]]. This, however, winds up messing up their friends' [[TheBroCode group dynamic]], though things eventually work out.
** Mabel, and [[TheBigGuy Grenda]], were this for [[AsianAndNerdy Candy]] and [[AdorablyPrecociousChild Dipper]] when the former had a crush on the latter. It doesn't work out, but ''VideoGame/GravityFallsLegendOfTheGnomeGemulets'' and the special edition of ''Literature/GravityFallsJournal3'' both show that Mabel has moved on to Dipper/[[DefrostingIceQueen Pacifica]].

* Creator/DanielRadcliffe comes across as this in his guest appearance on ''WesternAnimation/BoJackHorseman''; he's the one who suggests that [=BoJack=] and Mr. Peanutbutter put aside their differences by kissing, who starts the chant of "Kiss! Kiss! Kiss!", and who claps his hands in glee when they do.
* ''Toys/EverAfterHigh'':
** Brooke, who narrates the story in-universe, ships [[TwiceShy Bunny/Alistair]]. In one episode, she actually uses her minor reality-warping powers to encourage them to kiss.
** Apple soothes Raven's first date jitters, looking noticeably worried that Raven's first date with Dexter won't go well.
* In ''WesternAnimation/TheMagicSchoolBus'' episode "[[Recap/TheMagicSchoolBusS4E10GetsCharged Gets Charged]]", the entire class (and Liz) ship Ms. Frizzle with her potential "boyfriend".
** In the "[[Recap/TheMagicSchoolBusS1E11GoesToSeed Goes to Seed]]" producer segment, Liz ships Ms. Frizzle and Mr. Seedplot.
* ''WesternAnimation/MiraculousLadybug'':
** Marinette's parents look delighted when Marinette invites Adrien over, and repeatedly offer him their home-baked food.
** They're also supportive when Marinette confesses her love to Chat Noir (in an attempt to protect her SecretIdentity), to the point that her father gets akumatized when Chat Noir turns her down.
** Both Adrien and Marinette's kwami companions are insistent that they should admit their feelings to each other- so strongly, in fact, that it's become {{Fanon}} that they know about the [[LovesMyAlterEgo love square]] and are trying to resolve it. In "Lady Wi-Fi", Plagg berates Adrien for respecting Marinette-as-Ladybug's desire to keep her identity secret, and later in "Dark Cupid", Tikki seems oddly certain that Adrien's poem was about Marinette. [[spoiler:Wayzz, Master Fu's kwami, shares their opinion.]]
** Nino uses footage of Ivan and Mylene's first kiss to conclude a movie he's making.
** Marinette is thrilled when Nino confesses to having a crush on Alya (not knowing he panicked and it's actually Marinette herself that he's crushing on) and immediately moves to help set them up. She's equally supportive of their relationship once they do actually get together, as is Adrien.
** Not to mention the fact that by season two, most of the class (minus Chloe and Sabrina) have outright stated that they know Marinette is head over heels in love with Adrien, and they're all 100% completely behind her.
** Adrien ships his father and Nathalie, being very happy when he (mistakenly) thought they had gotten together.
* ''WesternAnimation/StarVsTheForcesOfEvil'':
** Star spends a lot of time in the first two seasons trying to help Marco gain the courage ask his crush, Jackie, out on a date. [[MatchmakerCrush Only to regret it]], as she's developed feelings for Marco once he does start dating Jackie.
** Prior to him dating Jackie, pretty much everyone down to the ''[[RedStringOfFate very multiverse itself]]'' start believing that Marco is Star's boyfriend, [[ShesNotMyGirlfriend which he denies]]. When he starts dating Jackie, even his parents express surprise that he didn't switch to pursuing Star. Then Jackie breaks up with him, realizing that Marco cares about Star more. Of course, by the time Marco realizes Jackie is right about him being in love with Star, [[DramaticIrony she is now back together with her ex-boyfriend Tom]]. But eventually, like Jackie, Tom realizes that Star isn't as invested in their relationship as he is -- not helped by her and Marco sharing a kiss behind his back -- and breaks up with her, joining every other character in acknowledging that Star and Marco seem destined for each other.
*** Notable examples of in-show shippers include Star's friend/fangirl [=StarFan13=] (voiced by series creator Daron Nefcy), who apparently writes [[PortmanteauCoupleName Starco]] fanfiction; and Eclipsa, who was already overtly shipping them ''before she'd actually met Marco'', just based on how Star talked about him, and encourages Marco to not let go of his feelings for Star despite her dating Tom.
* ''WesternAnimation/ReadyJetGo'': Jet, Sean, and Sydney all ship their friend Mindy with their frenemy Mitchell pretty hard. Some major examples:
** In the episode "Mindy's Mystery", after Mindy and Mitchell solve their mysteries, Sydney pulls Mindy and Mitchell close to each other and says "Great work, all you detectives!"
** In the episode "Detective Mindy", Mitchell gets down on one knee and "proposes" friendship to Mindy, which caused Jet, Sean, and Sydney to cheer wildly. Jet was also intrigued when Mindy revealed that she was working with Mitchell earlier in the episode.
** In the Halloween 2-parter, "Jet's First Halloween", Jet invites ''specifically'' Mindy and Mitchell to the treehouse to check out the lunar eclipse.
** In "[[Recap/ReadyJetGoS2E22MarsRockForMomSeanHasACold Mars Rock for Mom]]", Sydney seems to ship Jet 2 with Boop, saying that their implied relationship is sweet.
* [[StrawFan Sarah]] from ''WesternAnimation/TheAmazingWorldOfGumball''. "The Shippening" even has her find a magic book that makes her fanfiction come to life. All of her [[CrackPairing crack pairings]] come true, affecting nearly everyone in Elmore.
* ''[[WesternAnimation/MightyMouse Mighty Mouse: The New Adventures]]'' had this happen in the episode "Mighty's Wedlock Whimsy", where Gandy Goose and Sourpuss try to get Mighty Mouse and Pearl Pureheart together because they believe they'd be much happier if they were married.

* On ''WesternAnimation/BigHero6TheSeries'' , everyone, ''especially'' Aunt Cass, thinks that Hiro and Megan Cruz would be a cute couple.
* The ''WesternAnimation/AdventureTime'' episode "All The Little People" is a parody of this. It features Finn finding miniature versions of himself and all the other characters. He nudges them together to get into romantic relations, but it doesn't end well for them.
* ''WesternAnimation/OverTheGardenWall:'' [[CheerfulChild Greg]] spends most of the WholeEpisodeFlashback encouraging [[ClassicalAntiHero Wirt]] to confess his feelings for [[GirlNextDoor Sara]], repeatedly StatingTheSimpleSolution as Wirt comes up with more and more reasons why he's doomed to failure.
* ''WesternAnimation/TheOwlHouse'': While Amity's siblings were the first, ''nobody'' ended up shipping Luz/Amity more than Hooty, [[GeniusLoci the Owl House]] itself.

* ''WesternAnimation/TheOwlHouse'': While Amity's siblings are the first, NOBODY ends up shipping Luz/Amity more than Hooty, [[LivingHouse the Owl House]] HIMSELF.

* ''WesternAnimation/StarVsTheForcesOfEvil'': Star spends a lot of time trying to help Marco gain the courage ask his crush, Jackie, out on a date. Meanwhile, other characters (such as her father and the ''[[RedStringOfFate very multiverse itself]]'') begin to see him as Star's boyfriend, [[ShesNotMyGirlfriend which he denies]]. Then she realizes that she's developed feelings for him, just as he and Jackie begin dating. Oops. And then her crush is revealed to everyone, including Marco himself, by a royal composer who assumed they were already on their way to becoming a couple. Double oops. And by the time [[spoiler:Jackie breaks up with Marco, realizing that he's in love with Star, and Marco starts to realize this himself, [[DramaticIrony she's already started dating someone else (her ex-boyfriend) again]].]] Triple oops.
** Star's friend/fangirl [=StarFan13=] (voiced by series creator Daron Nefcy) ships her with Marco and apparently writes [[PortmanteauCoupleName Starco]] fanfiction.
** Also Eclipsa, Ben Fotino, and Higgs, who also assume they're a couple. Given the massive amount of ShipTease the show has, there's really too many to count.
*** Eclipsa is notable because she was already overtly shipping them ''before she'd actually met Marco'', just based on how Star talked about him. Later on, she advises Marco to ''not'' try to throw away his feelings for Star, no matter how much it hurts because she's dating Tom at the time. And in the finale [[spoiler:she's clearly overjoyed (despite the very dire situation they're in) to discover that Star and Marco are now a couple]].

** All [[MassiveNumberedSiblings ten Loud sisters]] are on board with Lincoln and Ronnie Anne.

** The [[ObviouslyEvil bald, tattooed criminals]] from "Avatar Day" apparently ship Kataang.

--->"Is it just me, or is there something going on between those two? Will ComicBook/GreenLantern ever admit to his feelings? Will Hawkgirl ever stop [[GettingCrapPastTheRadar sublimating her passions]] with that big honkin' mace?! Will True Love conquer all? [[spoiler:''Not on my show!''" '''[[MomentKiller *BOOM*]]''']]

** Sierra seems to have supported Duncan/Gwen ''before'' they got together, no doubt in part because it would [[PairTheSpares free up Cody to be with her]]. However, when they actually got together by [[YourCheatingHeart making out behind Courtney's back]], Sierra turns against them. (Though again, her animosity toward Gwen may be at least partially because Cody did ''not'' AbandonShipping when he found out, continuing to support and hit on Gwen despite her being in a relationship with somebody else.)

** SelfDemonstrating/TheJoker shipped ComicBook/GreenLantern and Hawkgirl in [[AxCrazy his own quirky way]].

** Steven also ships Lars/Sadie, to Lars' displeasure. At one point, he assumed they were already married.

** PlayedForLaughs when Yin meets Korra and Asami and asks Mako why he isn't dating any [[IfYouOnlyKnew nice girls like them]].
