Andromeda Shun/Chameleon June is a het ship in the Saint Seiya fandom.

Canon

Andromeda Shun and Chameleon June are friends, training together since childhood with the same teacher. Since a female saint must kill any male who sees her face or fall in love with him, and she didn't try to kill Shun when her mask fell off her face, fans interpret this to mean that she has a crush on him. However, nothing in the source material indicates that Shun reciprocates her feelings or considers her anything more than a good friend.

Fandom

A Shun x June Week has been organized by kaff_chan on January 2022 and January 2023.

In 2019 Knights of the Zodiac Netflix remake, Shun's gender was changed to female, and he was renamed Shaun. June (renamed Genet) and Shaun are still childhood friends. The fact that Genet has a more prominent role in this remake and that they have more scenes together has increased the popularity of this ship in yuri version.
