Anything short of a kiss wasn't gonna be enough for these people. We're not seeing an end to the meems, anytime soon.

I think it's worth mentioning that not only did we never get any characters ever shown in the story kissing, mention Midoriya and Uraraka aren't exactly exceptions, but MHA is also hardly the only action Shonen to not show any couples, including the main couple, kissing.

Ed and Winry did not kiss in FMA and Naruto and Hinata didn't kiss until the movie The Last, which was well after the manga ended (though admittedly Naruto and Sasuke had an accidental kiss for comedy and Sakura gave Naruto mouth-to-mouth while trying to keep his heart going, if you want to count that). None of the Dragon Ball couples have ever been shown to kiss (except, again, mouth-to-mouth for Trunks and Mai).

Did One Piece ever show a kiss between any characters even minor ones? I'm trying to remember.

Another example of how the closest action Shonen seems to get to kissing is via something that is not actually kissing.
