I’d love to see more adult stories like this!

Likewise! This one shot was crazy with how many pages it had AND the depth of the story. This could have been a short cutesy chapter but no, Senyuu went all the way. Gonna have to check back on Senyuu's works if they're all high quality like this.

That was pretty terrific. I particularly liked the bit with Maki explaining the full contents of her letter. "I need you to understand, Nico, just how needy and messed up I am." Great stuff.

This was wonderful. Stories like this are what keep me coming back.

This and Crystal Sugar Machine Gun. Great doujinshi about their adult lives.

This is a very believable adult nicomaki.

Thats one of the best things about it- it was all super believable and like it could go down in real life- one didnt love the other while still in school just saw her as a friend.. Maki lacked the courage to confess- but also thought it wasnt possible because of Nico's idol status.. but then years later it comes out, and Nico is willing to try..

A great story. I wish there was more doujins for them like this and a few less sex focused ones (tho I like those too lol).

Godly written, excellent art style, it's probably one of my favorite NicoMaki doujins to date.

That was goddamn beautiful, I love NicoMaki so much aaaa

Man, what a masterpiece. I feel like it really captured what the characters would be like as adults, which seems pretty rare. The conflict was interesting and believable as well.

I feel selfish for wanting more even after all that. Perhaps a sequel with some domestic bliss from them. And a side of NozoEli as well, 'cause why the hell not

Senyuu is just the best. Hope incredible artists continue to show to the yuri world how much the NicoMaki is incredible.

What a wonderful story with so much depth and layers of meaning! Nico and Maki love each other more than they can admit to each other! Sweet heartfelt story! Beautiful!

I created an account just to comment on this.
Easily one of, if not my MOST loved doujin ever!
By the time I was done reading this, I was in tears! Beautiful in every way, from the writing to the crisp art style!
Thank you so much to the translator and the author himself for this piece of heaven!~

I can't believe I just found this! As other comments have said Senyuu is the best but this one really knocked it out of the park. I thought it could have ended amazingly around page 40 but then I realized I still had half the thing left! Just great work.

Such an amazing one-shot! The romance and situations felt incredibly genuine and realistic, with a refreshing level of maturity. Despite being adults, the characters still hold onto their youthful, teenage sides, making them feel even more authentic. Also, the story had a nostalgic vibe, felt like something from the early 2000s or late 2010s. :)
