Why Mutual Pining SaiOuma Fanfiction Works So Well

Oma Kokichi/Saihara Shuichi — V3's gentle detective and its self-proclaimed evil supreme leader play a season-long game of lies, with Kokichi needling Shuichi precisely because he is the only one clever enough to be worth deceiving. Kokichi's death gambit makes the detective the executor of his final, unreadable plan. The fandom obsesses over which of his lies about Shuichi were true.

Mutual Pining — Both characters are in love with each other but believe their feelings are unrequited. Readers can see the truth while characters remain oblivious.

A liar who wanted to be solved and the one detective who almost managed it before the curtain fell. The delicious frustration of obvious mutual attraction, the anticipation of them finally realizing the truth, and the emotional payoff. That's why mutual pining SaiOuma fanfiction is one of the most consistently popular combinations on AO3.
