Is it weird that almost every time I see Keine/Moukou art/DJs, it makes me think of Kaguya/Moukou like five seconds later? And not because I like that pairing more, since I like them both about the same for different reasons. Of course, it's probably even weirder that if you give me long enough I start going through a mental list of every pairing with Moukou in it I've seen before, including ones with almost no material on Dynasty like Moukou/Tewi...

More NozoNico is always welcome. <3

I swear I'm not dissing Tsubasa... I just don't like reading about her as much anymore because every time I try I get reminded of her creepy self in the doujin I mentioned.

Just re-read the good stuff and ignore works by that artist since their Tsubasa is pretty much always like that.

All the other TsubaHono stuff here besides that one doujin is all great.

One bad doujin shouldn't sour you, or rather, don't let it sour your view of a character. I've read plenty of fanfics where I don't like how Nico is portrayed but she's still my (second) favorite character. (Tsubasa is my #1, so please enjoy stuff about her ;_;).

Thanks for the list. I'll try... that's about all I can promise, though.

Worth saying is that I don't actually dislike Tsubasa... I just haven't been able to enjoy reading about her as of late. I think her actual character (as in, in canon) is just fine, and one of the more interesting ones in the cast, at that. From what I remember reading about, at least. But the last time I read an article dedicated at least in part to Tsubasa, it was literally a guy wearing yuri goggles trying to prove that Tsubasa is canonly in love with Honoka using rabid shipper-brand evidence. I'm not sure how much of a source like that I should actually trust as factual...

But uh... actually, I've never watched Love Live at all. Not the movie and not a single episode. The closest I've come to viewing any of the source material is reading a few chapters of the side manga thing that has the official tag but still does chapters with pairing tags once in a while.

Like with Madoka Magica, basically everything I know about Love Live and its characters comes from the doujins on Dynasty, which, admittedly, are not always the most accurate source. The primary difference between my treatment of each fandom so far is that I haven't written fanfiction for Love Live yet, but I have twice for Madoka Magica...

uhm... how about try to watch the series?

I could, but usually when I'm consuming something for yuri, I prefer doujins over the source material anyway... more rewarding substance there. Besides, if you read enough doujins, you'll eventually figure out what the show is about without ever having to take the time to watch it. I've done that with a lot of stuff that has material on Dynasty, actually...

Hurrah for NozoNico !! °✧◝( ⁰▿⁰ )◜✧°

That username of yours though... I frigging love it. Thumbs up.

Agh it pains my heart to see this spoken about my girl Tsubasa ;_;

Have you watched the second season and movie? She's so charismatic and admirable, I don't know how people can dislike her :(

But then who would love Maki? Eli? I don't think I've ever seen art of those two.

In the case of NozoNico, I would typically ship Maki with Rin, Hanayo or both at the same time... Love Live is the only anime where I've ever been able to tolerate threesome ships before. But that's just me, I dunno what other people would think of that...

I think my optimal Love Live pairing list to make sure everyone in the main nine is hooked up with someone would be something like this:
NozoNico
EliUmi (I always love this one and always prefer it over the other ships involving these two)
RinMakiPana
Honoka/Kotori

Of course, Anju/Erena is also good, but they're not from the main nine, so they don't go in the list. As for Tsubasa, well... honestly, after reading that one doujin where she literally kidnapped Honoka and was creepy as hell, I haven't liked reading about her as much (even though I know she's not really like that... right?), so I dunno whether I'd pair her up with anyone.

The world needs more NozoNico.

The bro is strong with this one.

That title is like the opposite of clickbait. I almost missed a really sweet story! lol

I really wonder what the author was thinking about creating a title and cover for a story like this. I'm willing to bet they actually got more sales though since hentai probably sells faster than a serious story.

Hentai sells faster in general. Keep in mind, though, that to the average person, the word "diaper" alone is enough to get one to turn away when it comes to manga/doujins. And that applies to people who love hentai in general, too - the concept of H-doujins is wide and diverse and everybody who reads it has their own do/don't list (and they will often tell you that their do/don't list is normal/acceptable and other conflicting ones are the screwed up ones).

There are obviously going to be people who are into that kind of thing. But as far as I know, the diaper community is pretty small - it's a fairly narrow niche that isn't very well received/understood by the general public (I'm pretty sure the fetish/community has a different name but I can't remember it... I think diapers are grouped with something else in the acronym, though. Anyone want to help me out here? I'm drawing a blank).

Wow I thought this was going to be a pretty ecchi hentai book based on the title and cover, but damn it was beautiful. It's so beautifully drawn. I love the watercolor/marker style it has. I hope people give it a chance and don't get turned off by the title and cover. It's not about infant play at all...

The author's note at the end gave me a huge laugh.

I looked at the comments before deciding whether to read or not. I saw this and took your advice. It was a good call. I'll admit I was caught off guard to find something like this on Dynasty, but it was a good read nonetheless.

Keep in mind folks, that Love Live! shipping wars are not a thing here. So if you prefer another pairing, kindly keep it to yourself, or go over to a chapter about that pairing, where people would be happy to hear all about how you like them.

I was making a joke, but I have to ask... is this just not enforced on image discussion threads? Because I don't see anyone following it on those, yet it almost immediately got reprimanded here...

-Is about to be a less mainstream version of those dickweed commenters you see on obscure pairing pics-

I prefer EriUmi, but I never turn down a doujin with good art and the drama tag.

This is what I'd expect from this author. They rarely do something light and happy... and I gotta admit, cliches and bad-spirited characters aside, I did enjoy this. Will be looking forward to more.

I've sort of been in Nico's position in this pic before, as well as accidentally gotten into Eli's multiple times... so I'm not sure who I sympathize with more.

@AshuraX: She is embarrassed, she's just not being direct about it. See the blushing? That proves she's not totally unaffected by it. What I'm more surprised about is that even though she's visibly embarrassed she's able to act like she's not.

Maybe it's just my hatred of mainstream ships but this is my favorite pairing in all of Love Live. I can tolerate NicoMaki (though not NozoEli but that's because EliUmi is superior in every measurable aspect for me), but NozoNico is both my favorite Nico ship and my favorite Nozomi ship. May a good NozoNico doujin come soon, I'm practically starved...

Going back to drpepperfan's comment about Citizen Kane, it would be like if the first hour of the movie was full of sled imagery, stamped with "Ros" and the rest obscured. It's not really that much of a secret that you can't get away with an appropriate tag.

In terms of twitsts, I'd give it a "nice try".

Honestly from basically the first panel with Tsubasa, I found myself thinking "Something is very wrong with this picture. Her eyes are drawn way too creepily for this to be a normal NSFW doujin." When the big reveal at the end happened, rather than being surprised, I just thought, "So THAT'S what it was. I knew something was up!"

Correction: Not just her eyes. Basically her face in general. At times it looked uncannily like that of a sex offender leering at their target. At least, that's how it seemed to me...

Was I the only one who thought it telegraphed being creepy almost from the start?

Nope. Tsubasa's eyes and demeanor were creepy from pretty much the first panel she appeared in. The lack of a yandere tag really isn't that misleading when you consider the art and storytelling itself screams it if you just listen for the warning bells.

I was wondering why it was so confusing back when I first read it at like five in the morning... and then, five hours later, I realized I started reading the story from chapter five. Epic fail.

I'm caught up in the fact that Donut literally gave her kidnapper a lecture... and it legit made him want to reform. It's so crazy it's comical. I frigging love it, I got a real good laugh out of Mew at the end.

I come from a rare angle. I don't ship this because I prefer Ladybug (Ruby/Blake). Although I'll admit, like those before me, that I enjoy the art here.

However, despite what I said above, I now plan to go check fanfiction.net and see if there are any good fanfics of this pairing. What can I say? I'm open to trying new things.

I read the comments after reading, and I'm glad I'm not the only one who was incredibly confused about over half of the lines in the whole doujin. Even the last couple pages were pretty bad, though they were at least intelligible.

Actually, the quality of this translation reminds me of a bunch of ReiMari works in Touhou that were by... Yonurime? I think that was it. I'm pretty sure the scanlator for those ones was Eternal Dream. They were marginally better than the end of this doujin, but you could tell that English wasn't the translator's first language.

I'm not the only one who suddenly really wants to see a doujin of this pairing, am I? It looks like it'd be a good pairing to have comedic doujins of for sure.

Can one be on both team Cat and team Dog? I love both animals, and I'd hate to have to choose...

That aside, this chapter was particularly funny. They both expected each other to be physically similar to the animals they resembled. Pure gold, this chapter was.

Hands down my favorite manga with the delinquent tag. Nothing else with it can compare.
