Oh god, this reopened my memories of my first ever Self Ship OC. Funny enough, it was Bill Cipher from Gravity Falls. Little me didn't do it for loving him, little me did it just to DESTROY the floating dorito chip. I remembered making her SUPER overpowered too, like GODDESS level overpowered. And now she's a fully fleshed out Retired God, trying to live her life with her Family, Friends, and her Partner in a world I eventually made and wrote down. But now with the rise of Gravity Falls again, all I can think about now is their interaction going like "YOU'RE SUPPOSED TO BE DEAD!" "I got better?"

I don't have anything against self-shipping at all! I used to do it myself, however, one of my old friends was into it so hard she was legitimately convinced she was married to this fictional character. Like it was 100% real to her. So bad that whenever she saw artwork of other OCs shipped with him, she'd have full-blown meltdowns over it. I wanted to support her but it was ruining her self esteem and mental health so bad :(

These are all so cute. The community post was a bit too vague on what kind of self-shipping we were talking about for me to give my full thoughts, but yeah. Self-shipping is completely fine and harmless fun, even if it isn’t always the most nuanced and developed. And for writers and especially artists, doing this sort of thing develops their skills in designing and storytelling. It’s actually pretty important in my opinion to explore yourself and develop your skills as you keep practicing. To quote Red from OSP, “People write fan fic for fun. And if your first oc happens to be you with better hair, then whatever man. You do you.”

[@doukzu]

Selfshipping is amazing, I LOVE the crossover of Winx Club, MLP and Wreck-it-Ralph of all things I resonated with that so much. Cringe culture is dead. I have a whole daydream about waking up in BOTW's Hyrule, adventuring with my current favorite character (Zhongli..) and also there are Pokemon and frankly whatever other thing I like I can manage to sprinkle in. All my fandom sonas are pretty much shipped with some canon character even though it's more queer platonic than anything. It's FUN!

Actually, as a matter of fact, the epilogue of my current fic goes up on Tuesday :) This is basically my version of playing with dolls and making them kiss and get married-

I gave up on real dating. Two failed relationships, one longterm one where my ex got violent, nobody really wants to date a really autistic person :/ I can't live on my own so I understand why nobody would want to date me, and that's not even getting into if we click or not. So, self-shipping it is. I got *many* fictional loves, one of the ones I'm currently into is the Woodsman from Over the Garden Wall and The Pure Vessel from Hollow Knight.

[@Ilikememes0]

[@umbreonhyperdream]

I don't care much for self shipping I used to be super bothered by it (mostly from second hand embarrassment I think) but I grow ut of it. I can't ship myself with characters personally because even if I really like a character I just don't feel that way about them. I usually just make ship ocs. Specifically if I don't like them with any canon characters. Personally I think it's more fun that way.

[@shortandnerdyboy]

I do understand people that self-ship, I always just did it with self inserts and that's why I laughed so hard at this video because it brought back memories I forgot I had. I don't do it anymore, but I am guilty of still making self inserts. So, I think that it's okay to do things like this to a certain level, it's a different way of showing your love for a certain piece of media

[@krabkrab_]

One big aspect of Self-shipping for me (which I’m hoping I’m not the only one who does this) is reusing/recycling a self-insert or self-insert character design into other forms of media (usually anime). Funnily enough my second(?) mha insert had ‘Karma’ as her hero name (she was initially a Black Clover self-insert)

[@Blub_Shaped_Kitsune]

Man this brought back memories of little me self shipping myself with characters from the DreamSMP. She somehow had magic despite that not even being to happen in this world, some of the things she did would entirely break cannon that shouldn’t have even been implemented, and the characters I shipped her with were canonically gay in the server and in real life, which now I feel kinda bad for. I do think my situation is a tad different since little me was shipping herself with Minecraft men who were real people behind the screen and not just pixels. I think that further hindered me from taking an interest after that. I’ve personally had a negative connection to Self Shipping since when I did it it was in a bad fandom and little me ignored real people’s sexualities, but I think if you approach it in a mature way by not being weird you’ll be fine. It’s just harmless fun after all :]

[@larath3w4terb3nder7]

I've always had self inserts, but all the ones i currently use don't get really shipped with any character unless it's an otome game i play. Every self insert for me is just a way ro explore possible platonic relationships with characters or to just have fun drawing their powers or imagining cool scenes with said powers. I think it's a very useful way to express feelings one can't in their daily lives.

[@SkellSeer]

My first fictional crush was Guy from The Croods, although I didn’t make a self-insert until a couple years after I started making them. She was a nature girlie with cool striped leaf pants, with a purple petal top. Her hair was curly blonde, with the lower half being a matching purple (I used the same hair design for a Hunger Games insert as well). I’m grateful for my younger self for getting into that stuff because it led me to writing my own stories and original characters

But look at that she actually pretendinf to betray them so that she could trick the villain and manslaughter him 😇💀 she wasnt really shipped with anyone but when i did want her to be with someone for some reason it would be a random woman (yes she was lesbian) it would change for whoever i thought was pretty but it these ships wouldnt last

My dumbass self insert mha oc is shipped with jirou😭 LOOK I LOVED HER AND SHE IS SO UNDERRATED

[@mintymimics213]

I made *several* oc's for MHA back when I was in high school (15-17). One's that weren't supposed to be self-insert, and were rather, ones for shipping just for funzies . I almost had OC's for all of the male characters (struggled with the girls tho, lol). I actually loved my lil'creations so much that I actually still kind of use them. And heck. I'll publically embarrass myself. Here's a small list of three of them, including backstories for those curious: *Rika Smith:* She was shipped with Bakugou and had a quirk very similar to Hawk's. She was inspired by an old, now deserted KZbin channel called, Dark Tingles Asmr. A channel that specialized in making asmr roleplays where the listener lived with a toxic & abusive boyfriend. Before Rika met Bakugou, she of course had an abusive boyfriend. Terrified for her life. She used her quirk to fly away from America and to Japan to live with her mom. Rika's mom was Japanese, while her dad was an American (adding that for context since she has a Japanese first name and an American last name). After sorting out her citizenship with a lot of paperwork on her mom's end, she's allowed to _legally_ move to Japan. Where she got accepted into U.A. because of her quirk. Rika uses a childish joking personality to make herself come off as more confident that she actually is. She would initially occasionally jokingly taunt and tease Katsuki just to mess with him. In her own selfish way, it was a way of taking out (some) of her frustrations from her previous relationship onto a person who has a similar crash & cruel personality. But eventually. She comes to realize, that unlike her ex, Bakugou is capable and willing to change. That he can genuinely be sweet. And she dropped her act and apologized to him. ~ *Sakura & Ryoko:* Two sisters born to, two villain parents with demon related quirks. Their mom having a succubus transformation quirk. And their dad being a regular demon transformation quirk. Ryoko was the first child that they very clearly _didn't_ want since she was born with a carbon copy of her dad's quirk. While Sakura was their favorite, due to her receiving her mother's quirk, like planned (don't worry I kept it pg-13, and never went _too far with it_ , and I keep her quirk as a "look into her eyes and you'll wanna do anything she demands" type of thing). Despite Sakura being their favorite though, they never actually showed any care towards her. Making it clear that they only wanted her for her quirk during robberies. The blatant favoritism would cause Ryoko to run away when she was only 6 years old. Leaving a then 5 year old Sakura, behind. Since Ryoko was deemed a mistake, her parents didn't bother looking for her, which turned into their downfall since Ryoko served as an extra set of eyes to alert them when Pro-Hero's were going to show up. After their parents were arrested. Sakura would be taken in by MidNight, and would go on to attend Nabu High along side Shinso (the character that she'd be shipped with). Where she, along with Shinso, were relentlessly bullied for their quirks. But Sakura more so, for her ever having been related to villians in the first place. She'd eventually go on to attempt to get into U.A.'s hero course with Shinso. Doing so because not only her crush on him, but also because of her seeing him as an inspiration. But would unfortunately fail. And end up having to try a few more times to join the hero course. For context, she didn't wanna be a neppo-baby & , so she along with Aizawa, refused to just let Midnight let her into the hero course. Ryoko would remain on the streets until she turned 16. When she was hunted down by Aizawa and Midnight, to be put into U.A.'s villain rehabilitation program (generic, ik). Ryoko's receiving rehab partially due to how helpful her enhanced strength, endurance and speed would be on the Pro hero's side. But also due to her quirks demands. Which requires her to consume flesh or blood (emo edgey generic lol). After she first gets to U.A. and, mandatorily, introduces herself. She slowly goes through the grueling process of adapting to socializing with other people. And because of her previous self imposed isolation. Proves to be hard. Especially with one of her fellow 1-A classmates, Kirishima, who in her own words - makes her feel "sick to her stomach". - Which is just her feeling butterflies in her stomach.

Im proud to be a selfshipper 😅 Cause most of my ocs are made SPECIFICALLY for that reason but now ive rewrite and redesign them to fit more and as a self insert now 😌

[@annaholdennn]

My selfshipping tactic is to ship the character I like with the character I relate to so other people have made content for me already.

drawing my childhood ocs/redrawing my art from when i was a child heals something in me

[@Insertusernamerighthere]

For the record. I had a self insert once that I only made because I desperately wanted to punch Bakugo in the face. He(bakugou) really annoyed me, acted a lot like my brother.

[@bananaanimations2003]

I had a self insert "not like other girls" Frisk based OC for Undertale. I think it's pretty obvious she was shipped heavily with Sans, and not to forget my best friend who also had her own OC who was shipped also with Sans I believe (we shared him). Ah yes, my San's Fangirl age, I wish I could forget.

This reminds me of my elementary school friend group where we pretended to be dimension travelers so we could have OCs for a ton of different fandoms. There was also one original world where we were all goddesses. I was the goddess of water and my OC was a blue and black tiger. We were so dedicated to our OCs that me and my best friend even dressed up as them for Halloween one year

[@Sillyslipperybananapeel]

tbh i've been shipping myself with characters for as long as i can remember and then this year i learned what self-shipping was and i was elated i shit you not. like there was a term for it!!! i've always been the weirdo in the friend group because of it so it's nice to see i'm not alone in loving fictional characters. your self inserts are awesome!

[@hellhoundoom]

had 1 technically persona/selfship oc fursona since i was like 6, literally just got thrown into whatever media i was watching and found a character i liked (usually villains) to ship her with (and still do). Have gotten into making more fandom ocs which hinestly a fair few will probably get shipped with cannon characters at some point but were vibing with it rn

[@Peppermint_Puff]

I feel like one of the only MHA self shippers that didnt ship myself with bakugo, instead it was todoroki

[@cyborgpuppyofficial]

I loved this video! You did your Selfship characters SO MUCH justice. XD I'm here to admit that I do have some old and new selfship people! I'm not ashamed about it either, I've even make jokes about my oc's being selfship bait during videos lol. The first selfship oc I ever made was for FNAF, and was a fox girl named Fiona Foxkin. GOD she was ugly, but I made her in elementary school. I think I was about six or seven when I made her. And for some reason she wasn't an animatronic, but just a regular anthro fox. And of course, I shipped her with Foxy. Because when FANAF first came out, the fanart and hype around Foxy was CRAZY. Heck even my best friend shipped herself with Foxy too. XD Fiona was a Twilight Sparkle clone to the core, since she was my kinnie (still is). But I guess her difference was that she was "quirky", because of the whole "Lol random = funny" humor that was everywhere back then. I still cringe about it, but I did remake her design back in 2021 for the release of FNAF Security Breach, despite not being in the fandom anymore. Also her new self isn't shipped with anybody anymore. The other Selfship OC I had back in the say was name Snowdrip. She's similar to your MHA OC you showed off in this video. She was basically perfect, nothing was wrong with her, and she had zero flaws. If she DID ever do anything wrong, then it was her "eviiiil" side that she couldn't control. That was very popular back in the day too lol. I think Snowdrip was originally made in 2015 or something? Her ship was with Sonic exe. YES, the original Sonic exe creepypasta character.😭EUGH. I recently rewrote her for an original project, and she's pretty much a different person. Sadly, I don't have all their art of either of them. Since a lot of my art was from elementary school. Most of it got thrown away, or on my PC got deleted. I still make selfship oc's nowadays. But they're better written, and I usually make them as characters first, and ship characters second. My most obvious one is my selfship with Shadow, with a character named Ofra. Cringe culture is dead! Be free! Again, I loved this video. And I would love to see what other characters you made if you ever feel like making that. ^w^

[@generalzar0ff]

I love the fix it Felix reveal, that was great! I guess I’ll use the rest of this comment to talk about my own selfshipping ventures! So I really love the disney movie Atlantis: The Lost Empire, and I LOVE the character Vinny Santorini. It’s kinda funny because, as a kid, I tried to convince myself that I didn’t have a crush on him cuz that would be stupid, right? Anyway I’ve been shipping with him for like a year and a half at this point, and I have a self-insert OC named Bobbie Krauss. The movie takes place in 1914 but the character is still nonbinary like I am cuz whooo cares lol! It’s an environmental sketch artist who is good at their job, but ends up drawing the team’s demolitions man [Vinny] in that same sketchbook…

[@TheSmthingStupidPod]

I love it sm!! But just like anything too much/too intense of it is bad! (Like water, too much water isn't good for you, water at a high pressure isn't good etc) so as long as it doesn't negatively affect anyone it's chill!! (I love self inserts, I have a f1 insert so I don't think it could be more cringe lol)

[@Screamwaves]

I have a my hero persona aswell your video on it a year ago had me wanting to make one for a long time and this year I finally did. Also im pretty sure the same video you made last year had me wanting a self insert SO BAD and It had been in the back of my mind until around april this year cause I rewatched my hero. I watched it with my little brother and when Shinsou came on screen… Ohmygoddd I did NOT remember him being so attractive so I was like. Yupim making a self insert. So yes I have a self insert in my hero academia and she simply exists to ship myself with Shinsou. Also yesterday me and my friend made a timeskip izuku student oc and we were on call for 3 hours planning out the oc

[@bruh-vk6io]

i used to have self insert oc to ship with deidara and that was it for me. then i got older and the cringe culture got to me too much. i kinda miss the times when i just didnt give a fuck and did whatever made me happy.

[@Ilikeflowers22]

Totally my vibe. Not even embarrassed. I love it.

[@clasymasly]

I LOVE SELF SHIPING FR...the only self ship I really have is with Stanford from Gravity Falls cause of that one dating sim BUT it only counts 50/50 as a self insert cause I changed some stuff to make it...ya know...legal. BUT I fr only do it for silly lil fun cause of that dating sim!

[@AnavetsuArt]

Sometimes being cringe is what we need

[@EchoHaneul]

I unironically have 55 Genshin Impact OCs, of which 32 are "self" inserts, like... they're not "me" they don't look, act, or have anything in common with me, but they are characters I've made that are shipped with Genshin men. (if you're curious, the exceptions are Childe, Zhongli, and Aether, because Childe/Lumine, Aether/Hu Tao, and Zhongli/Guizhong) I do have actual persona characters and of my 8 sonas, only my Spidersona and self-proclaimed Batsona (DC) are shipped with anyone (Peter Parker and Jason Todd respectively) I try and gaslight myself into believing it's not cringe
