It's been so long since the last Honoka x Umi only doujin.
I can't believe this ship is so rare when it's so cute and the main ship for Honoka, the protagonist.

It's drawn fine, plot is cliche though.

Finally a Honoka x Umi, bloody rare these days aye!

There hasn't been a love live doujin in a while...

Damn this is wholesome

Same goes for me, for example I don't really get popularity of KotoUmi. Their relationship in the anime didn't seem like this at all (at least to me).
Honkers x any of them on the other hand... :D

a HonoUmi doujin on Umi's birthday, what more could i ask for? :')

though simplistic, this is a good take on their relationship. may umi never stop being an anxious, overthinking mess u_u

!? !? !? !?
!? !? !? !?
!? !? !? !?

This was cute

So this time the roles have reversed. And unlike Umi, Honoka had the courage to do it.

I love these two and really regret that we have so few doujins with them.

I feel the same way. For Kotori Honker is most close person, so why KotoUmi?

So nice.

The various media have different continuities, but the anime does pretty strongly hint that Umi has a thing for Kotori(who in turn is hinted at having a thing for Honoka, who in turn is explicitly established as having a thing for bread). Given that Honks is easily the least likely to enter a relationship(she's dense enough that she'd misunderstand anything short of being Frenched - and even then she might not get it), pairing them together makes sense.

Shows you're part of the mafia.

Aren't they?

This is as ridiculous as NikoMaki in anime.

It's not ridiculous. Even I'm aware how close NicoMaki was in the anime hence those two being one of the most if not most popular ship and they were teased together very often.

In manga they are.

It's other think. EriUmi is very popular too, despite of it's a crack.

Particular reason to that ? I don't know much of LL universe.

Particular? No, I don't see any. But in this fandom talking to each other is enought reason to ship (well, not only this one), and even talk about canons, so...

And anime too for NicoMaki. You might not see it but it's pretty blatant for most others.
From the top of my head S1 for many people they were shipped because people enjoyed their interactions with one another and S2 pushed them very much more.
But keep in mind they were already popular together before the anime.

In the final of the first season, when Honoka give up with idols, Maki did the same. She didn't support Nico with her new band. She just returned to the piano. So yeah, I not see it.

I mean, no ship is canon so they ain't gonna push any one of them in the anime very clearly.

NicoMaki is clearly seen in the anime. I'm not going say it's canon as opposed to being pushed.
The girls had their reasons to leave but once you go into Season 2 does NicoMaki get pandered plenty.
Not that it didn't stop newcomers to the series to ship them in the first season and it was teased with Kotori serving them a single drink for two for Nico and Maki.

Are we back to all this again.

NicoMaki is off topic so take it to that tag if you wanna go on about them. I'd rather not have to start deleting things to clean up the discussion, so off you go now.

this is so good and overwhelming, nice job
