Relationships
- Komaeda's most popular pairing is with Hajime Hinata, which is M/M, aka Boys' Love. In Japanese, this is most often called 狛日, meaning Komaeda attacks and Hinata receives in the coupling. This is the most popular pairing in the entirety of Dangan Ronpa fandom. The ship is similar to the other popular Dangan Ronpa protagonist/rival pairings: Naegi x Togami from Dangan Ronpa: Trigger Happy Havoc and Saihara x Ouma from Dangan Ronpa V3: Killing Harmony.
- See Hinata x Komaeda for more.
- Komaeda is also shipped with Izuru Kamukura, which is M/M, aka Boys' Love. In Japanese, this is most often called [x]. Izuru Kamukura is another form of Hinata, and many works are both Kamukura x Komaeda and Hinata x Komaeda.
- See Kamukura x Komaeda for more.
- Hinata & Komaeda & Nanami is a popular trio, nicknamed Point Getter Trio in English and [x] in Japanese. The polyship of Hinata x Komaeda x Nanami is also common, labelled various things by both Japanese-speaking and English-speaking DR fandom.
The Crossover Pairing of Komaeda x Sans, pairing him with Sans from Undertale, is also popular due to memes such as Fingers in His Ass. Before this, he was often shipped with Macklemore of Thrift Shop fame in 2013, forming Komaeda x Macklemore. He may be considered a Fandom Bicycle.

The order seen should be what's most popular unless marked with "possibly." ENG portmanteaus are also subject to change. Relationships listed fall into GL, NL, BL, Poly, Combi or Cargo.
