A new Karuha doujin is always nice to see.

Nico not being a tsundere is creeping me out.

Ah, as cute and slightly erotic as all of Karuha's excellent works are. Well, I haven't read a Karuha doujin in a while, so the "slightly erotic" part is just conjecture, but I'm positive that all of her stuff's cute, at least. I do have a few questions though...

Page 7: "Sorry, sorry. I'm just teasing. This makes happy." Uh, am I reading this wrong cause it doesn't really make sense the way I'm reading it.

27: What's up with that "Nishikino Souseki-san" thing? Is it a nickname Nico has for Maki? The only experience I have with Love Live is reading the yuri doujins, so I'm not too familiar with all this stuff (though it certainly does help a lot with learning more about LL).

Oh... Japanese Yuri...?

Sure is, hotel patrons. A meal with a show.

Very pretty. Not just the art, but the story has a very pretty feel, which I'm certain doesn't make sense to anyone but me

She's referring to Natsume Souseki, who's famous for (apocryphally) saying that a Japanese person would never say something as blunt as "I love you", but instead talk around the point with a phrase like "the moon is beautiful"

Gosh, Karuha you're killing it. What a wonderful doujin with beautiful, beautiful art.

I feel like the vacation setting was a nice way to explore nico & maki with their guards down. Getting to see the characters interact without their constant tsundere masks generated such a relaxed and heartwarming story.

I think the entire summer was a dream by Nico. Proof: her breasts are at least as large as Maki's. At least on the cover.

Nico was teasing Maki about the trip invitation, because she wasn't being straightforward with it, and asking if people were coming with them even when Maki was making it seem like a trip that was only for the two of them.

Natsume Souseki has this famed phrase “the moon is beautiful” to express the Japanese equivalent of “I love you.” In that scene, Maki was kinda doing the same thing and Nico as usual was just messing with her while also subtly saying that there will be next times in wonderful places in the course of their relationship.

agreed, and the final scenes on the balcony gave off an air of maturity...seeing Nico be herself instead of the 'tsun' and boastful show she always has...
ahhh vaca'ys are the best

Exactly, an air of maturity, I adore how it conveyed that. It also reminded me that Nico is the older one, though I can not pinpoint the exact reason for why I suddenly took notice of that. I like stories like this much more than the usual tsundere approach.

^This actually confused me. They don't know that they're lovers...? What.
This is just my opinion but I think most of Karuha's doujins are set years after the anime timeline, that's why they're matured enough not to be tsun tsun around each other anymore

I think she was refering to the powerstone lady, who probably think they were two very close friends.

I was a bit puzzled by that remark, too. I had thought that the multi-chapter volume about them back in school had already established them as lovers. But oh well, you can always chalk it up to the last few vestiges of tsun left in Maki.

e: note to self: refresh early and often.

Oohhh omg, I'm slow.. what the hell... Thank you for that.

Lol, no worries. Or Karuha just like them to be more dere since nicomaki is known for bein tsun tsun. Or this is the tsun in public but dere in private.

Edit: One last question.. What's the figure four leglock...?
