That's a good gift, Eli. ^_^

More adorableness please! ^_^

As amusing as Nico's leap in logic was, I can't shake the feeling that something was lost in translation, like the word for hair or the phrase in which Maki used it could have had a cultural meaning that could possibly hint at something else. I mean sure, Maki is acting nervous and Nico is, as others have pointed out, young and horny, but Maki is playing with her own hair as she says it. She has a habit of playing with the hair on her head, and Nico wears a specific hairstyle that attracts attention and bolsters her idol image. How is the hair on one's head not the first thing that comes to mind when someone says hair?

Edit: Maybe a prequil scene with Nozomi teasing Nico about her lack of development may be something that would help explain why such things were already at the forefront of Nico's mind?

The things Nico does for her beloved Maki. ^_^

Nico really does love her cardigan...

At least they'll be hanging out on Saturday, regardless of who asked who. ^_^

Maki, is this time somehow excluded from "anytime"? Take a picture with your adorable senior! ^_^

Well, I think the first difference is that them expressing their distaste was nowhere near as aggressive as the one in the first page. Second, I think that there's a big difference when you go into a discussion thread about a certain ship only to say that you prefer another one as opposed to discussing why you think the dynamic, etc. of the ship shown is what you prefer over something else. I mean, the discussion was more about what was depicted in the show, and the dynamic of a tsun x tsun pairing more than the specific pairing of nicomaki anyway.

Fair enough. Presentation does matter.

This was cute, but I'm not going to lie, I enjoyed Hapide a little more than this one. Don't get me wrong though, the convo with Nozomi made for some nice character developement and a good read.

Had to Google "Knackers yard" though...

Maki's smile at the end makes me smile. ^_^

On my second time through now; may need a third to sate my NicoMaki cravings. ^_^

My favorite part of this ship summed up in 4 panels. ^_^

Last frame, is Umi really that much shorter than Maki, or just that desperate to deepen the kiss? I would like to think the latter.

Are Honoka's hands tied? That changes the dynamic of the pic a bit...

And this is why I happily ship Maki with anyone capable of flustering the hell out of her in an adorable manner. And yes, I agree with Norainhere, the bite was absolutely worth it. ^_^

Edit: Maki's shirt says "STAR" like her practice hat, right? Or am I just seeing things?

The words by the arrow pretty much sum up how I see this ship working. And I love it. ^_^

How can you refuse those eyes, Umi? ^_^

We were so innocent~~

Maki finally realized how good it feels to kiss the one she loves, so she wants more, and as a spoiled rich kid who doesn't know how to hold back when she wants something, Nico may find herself overwhelmed.

ineffectual hitting that's still cute.

That was my favorite part as well. ^_^

I can't decide which version I like he most. I guess I will just have to read it again...

Aggrssive little kitty taking charge to claim her tsundere. I like it. ^_^

Is Ruby a YohaMaru shipper there in the background?

Totally not jealous of Nozomi...

As adorable as this is, why do I feel like we are missing a panel?

I can sail this ship.
