Top Doomed Yaoi & Yuri Ships

Yaoi and yuri ships are romantic, same-sex character pairings that can be canon or non-canon (aka, fan-created). Yaoi ships (or slash) are between two male characters, while yuri ships (or femslash) are between two female characters. Some of these ships are also "doomed ships," which means that they end in tragedy or can never exist in the canon world. Here are some of the most popular doomed yaoi and yuri ships across fandoms:


Dean Winchester & Castiel (Destiel) from Supernatural
A cosmic connection with love so massive that it can rewrite reality, while also being doomed by miscommunication, self-loathing, and a lack of time.


Achilles & Patroclus (Patrochilles) from The Iliad and The Song of Achilles
A written-in-the-stars romance full of absolute love, pure devotion, and an inevitably tragic end enveloped by war, legacy, prophecy, and divine interference.


Alicent Hightower & Rhaenyra Targaryen (Rhaenicent) from House of the Dragon
A classic "what could have been" scenario that was spurred on by deep childhood affection and suffocated by duty, patriarchy, corruption, betrayal, and ruthless ambition.


Madoka Kaname & Homura Akemi (HomuMado) from Puella Magi Madoka Magica
A harrowing but beautiful love story defined by single-minded devotion, reality-shifting heartache, and a tragic level of self-sacrifice in the name of love.


Sirius Black & Remus Lupin (Wolfstar) from Harry Potter
A story that began with years of golden youth before that reckless time was tragically cut short, leading to wasted years of distrustful distance and a brief, bittersweet reunion.


Ash Lynx & Eiji Okumura (AshEiji) from Banana Fish
A miraculous but fragile connection that provides safety, refuge, beauty, and comfort in the midst of a (literal) warzone.


Merlin & Arthur Pendragon (Merthur) from BBC’s Merlin
A tried-and-true slow burn and lifelong partnership built on loyalty, selflessness, service, and the unspoken truth that one person is destined for shining heroism while the other is destined for the shadows.


Jayce Talis & Viktor (Jayvik) from Arcane
A once deeply unified connection built on mutual brilliance and a shared utopian dream that drifted apart over time, largely due to diverging perspectives on class, morality, and mortality.
