Background

Maki Nishikino comes from a wealthy family of doctors and is somewhat pressured to become a doctor like her parents, which would lead her into giving up music. Because of her wealth, it is discovered that Maki's parents own a beach house. Therefore, µ's gladly insisted Maki to go ask her parents if they could use it, which they allow.

Love Live! Wiki has more information related to Maki Nishikino

Personality

Maki has the qualities of a tsundere and has a hard time admitting her true feelings to her peers. She also has somewhat childish beliefs due to the group finding out that she still believes in Santa Claus. Maki is also quite stubborn as shown when she was being invited to play at the beach, she was withdrawn from the group and not interested in playing with them.

Her personality often clashes with Nico Yazawa, such as calling Nico stubborn. Rin, however, tells her "You're one to talk," implying that Maki is stubborn as well.

Side Stories

SmileIconSpeaking of Summer... (Rare #33)

Maki: I usually spend the summer on the terrace of my family's vacation home reading a book and listening to the sound of the waves.

Maki: But lately, it's been really hectic what with the practice and training camps with µ's...

Maki: I like to spend summer in quiet solitude, but spend time with everyone hasn't been bad.

Maki: Oh! That was for your ears only. So you absolutely cannot tell them, all right? Exclaimationpoint

PureIconIf I Knew Magic (Rare #42)

Maki: Why do you ask about magic? Something so completely unscientific just does not exist in this world. How stupid.

Maki: Even if you say "if", there's no chance of that "if" ever happening. I'm telling you.

Maki: That is why you are getting on my nerves! I just don't believe in things like magic! Anger

Maki: I don't need magic. I make things happen through my own hard work!

CoolIconA Place to Go (Rare #51)

Maki: I'd love to visit a place where the stars are beautiful, I think.

Maki: This may be a bit unexpected, but I really enjoy stargazing.

Maki: Will you take me sometime?

Maki: Huh? You don't know much about the stars? QuestionMark

Maki: That's too bad. Looks like I'll just have to teach you.

Maki: Wouldn't it be wonderful, listening to my explanation in a natural planetarium?

CoolIconWhat I Like (Rare #289)

Maki: My likes? Well, there's piano, but actually I enjoy looking at the sky even more.

Maki: To me, every star in the sky is precious. Each one feels important to me.

Maki: I always used to watch the stars when things were bad. I'd encourage myself by thinking "you're not the only one working hard. Be like that star, and keep at it."

Maki: So I really hated starless nights. I felt like someone who supported me was missing.

Maki: But not anymore.

Maki: Now I think it's okay to take it easy when I'm tired or sad. Like how the stars are hidden when it rains.

Maki: But it's not like the stars actually stop shining just because it rains.

Maki: When you're not able to do your best, just accept it! It's so obvious, yet I only just figured it out. So I'm a little slow, I guess.

Maki: I like the sky without starts now, too. It feels like the stars are recharging, to shine more.

Maki: Let's g star-gazing sometime. Rain or shine, I'm fine with either.

CoolIconSmall Miracles (Rare #303)

Maki: Huh? Nothing miraculous has ever really happened to me.

Maki: Doesn't the word just make you suspicious?

Maki: I don't really say this, because people react oddly...

Maki: but I think that miracles are built on a foundation of our efforts.

Maki: I'm such a beautiful, great student because of all my efforts. Just kidding! MusicNote

Maki: But... I am glad that Honoka came to the music room that one time, though.

Maki: I got into µ's because of that, and got close to Hanayo and Rin, too.

Maki: That day might be the only thing I'd call a miracle. Just don't tell anyone, okay?

CoolIconWinter Means... (Rare #339)

Maki: Good morning. It's freezing these days.

Maki: But we've been practicing well lately, and I'm getting better at handling the cold... I think.

Maki: I-I'm not just pretending. I'm running faster now, and I think I'm a little tougher. Sweatdrop

Maki: Running has really grown on me since I started going with Honoka and everyone.

Maki: I like how the scenery goes by faster than normal, and I might even be naturally talented at it. MusicNote

Maki: Ah! Your face says you don't believe me! I really am faster than I used to be, okay?

Maki: Fine, Then I'll show you. Want to race to that corner? I'm not going to lose.

Maki: Gasp... pant... Hehe, see, I won!

Maki: I guess you need to practice more, too.

Maki: Don't plan anything for your next day off, we're going running together. Try not to get left behind!

PureIconLast Night's Dream (Rare #499)

Maki: Oh, are you heading home, too?

Maki: I'm leaving late today because I went to the library.

Maki: Hmm? No, I wasn't studying today. I was reading books about handicrafts.

Maki: You see, last night I dreamt that I was sewing with Kotori. We were doing machine gathering to make a big, poofy skirt!

Maki: Don't tell me that it doesn't sound like a dream I would have. I already know. Sweatdrop

Maki: I've not done much handicrafts, but in my dream it was so easy. The skirt I made was beautiful.

Maki: Once it was done, I sewed on all these little spangles, then I embroidered it.

Maki: That dream had a big impact on me. Picturing a skirt in my head and then creating it with my own two hands. MusicNote

Maki: When I told Kotori about my dream, she looked thrilled.

Maki: Maybe I should try to learn to sew like in my dream. It might not be so easy, though.

SmileIconParty Time! (Rare #574)

Maki: See, I went to the trouble to come and get you.

Maki: For pity's sake... It's the µ's party today. Don't tell me you forgot! Sweatdrop

Maki: Walking like this... makes me think of the past.

Maki: It used to be normal for me to walk by myself... Don't give me that "poor you" look.

Maki: Now I always have someone close to me... I don't feel like I'm on my own any more. MusicNote

Maki: There's Rin, and Honoka, and... There's always someone there. really, everyone is so friendly.

Maki: ....I can already hear everyone's voices. Heehee, everyone is here already.

Maki: Make sure you have a good time too. It won't be a µ's party if everyone isn't having a good time.

CoolIconIf I Could Do More (Rare #615)

Maki: What do I wish I could do more of?

Maki: I...I don't have anything worthwhile for you.

Maki: Excuse me, that doesn't mean I don't have an answer! Don't jump to conclusions. Sweatdrop

Maki: There is... something.

Maki: I want to be more open about my feelings.

Maki: I saw that look! You thought that sounded out of character for me, didn't you? Exclaimationpoint

Maki: Everyone always treats me like I'm such a grouch. I know I come off that way sometimes, but inside I'm really not all that grouchy. BlueLines

Maki: I'm telling you because I believe you'll understand how I feel. Don't make fun of me, okay?

CoolIconA Different Me (Rare #684)

Maki: A different side of myself?

Maki: I don't think there is one. I'm always my usual calm, cool, and collected self, aren't I?

Maki: Wh-What's that look for? Sweatdrop

Maki: I know. You think I'm spoiled and standoffish, don't you?

Maki: I can be honest and upfront when I want to, you know.

Maki: Huh? Like when? I-I don't know, I can't think of anything off the top of my head... Sweatdrop

Maki: Please, just leave me alone. You can be a little mean sometimes.

Maki: You could stand to be more straightforward yourself. I like you better when you act that way. Then again, it's none of my business. MusicNote

PureIconShining so Bright (Rare #754)

Maki: Hmm? Things I like that are shiny?

Maki: Let me see... Handbag charms studded with jewel are one of my favorites. Ellipses

Maki: But I would say the girls in µ's shine more brilliantly than any jewel.

Maki: N-No, I'm not trying to imply that I'm some kind of radiant figure. I just feel that way when I look at everyone else. Sweatdrop

Maki: Especially when we're up onstage. I'm serious.

Maki: I know we're only school idols, not a pro idol group, but I feel like we're as dedicated and hardworking as any pro.

Maki: *Chuckle* Am I just bragging about my friends, now?

Maki: Seeing people get serious about their passions makes me feel like I can keep growing stronger. I have to work hard to keep up with them. MusicNote

CoolIconAll by Myself?! (Rare #806)

Maki: I was just thinking about how cold it was, and how it's snowing. This isn't good... At this rate, it'll be piled really high by tonight.

Maki: If I'd known this would happen, I would've worn my snow boots today. BlueLines

Maki: Huh? No, I'm not saying I don't think it's pretty. I just don't like the cold.

Maki: Of course, that doesn't mean I prefer the scorching heat in the summer, either. Which season do you prefer, summer or winter?

Maki: Oh, that's the bell. Class is starting. I'll see you later. Exclaimationpoint

Maki: Well, I was right. Look at all the snow. There's practically a mountain up on the roof. Looks like we won't be able to practice today.

Maki: Sh-Shovel snow? Me?! what about everyone else? Surely you're not suggesting I do it all by myself. Exclaimationpoint

Maki: Tutoring? Class duty? Student council? Of all the days for everyone to be busy, it had to be today? Sweatdrop

Maki: Fine, so be it. At least you'll help me, won't you? You weren't seriously suggesting I shovel the whole roof on my own.

Maki: Thank you. If you'd left too, I would've been flabbergasted. All right, let's get this done quickly and go for a nice hot drink afterwards! MusicNote

CoolIconWhat's on My Mind... (Ultra Rare #873)

Maki: There's still a little time until rehearsal... Oh, you're already here, too? It's still early.

Maki: My costume this time is a yukata dress. We're all in different outfits this time. The whole thing feels weird to me.

Maki: We've never done a live show where we weren't in matching outfits. It's an interesting experiment, but... I'm a bit worried we won't look like a unified group.

Maki: You helped decide on everyone's costume, right? The other girls have been talking.

Maki: By the way... thank you so much for all your support. I'm fully aware of how hard you work doing so many different things for µ's.

Maki: I always mean to thank you properly, but I never seem to get the chance, or find the right time to say it. Sweatdrop

Maki: But I assure you, I'm always grateful to you. It'd make me so happy if you'd keep that in mind... Oh, goodness. Look at what you made me say! MusicNote

Maki: Isn't it time for rehearsal yet? Is everyone still not here? Who's late?!

CoolIconYour Job (Super Super Rare #942)

Maki: Do I have any plans for after the show? Let me think... No, I don't have anything lined up for today. Although I'm sure someone will suggest we go out and celebrate.

Maki: Then we'll go over the show, discussing what went right and what went wrong.

Maki: It makes for a good learning experience.

Maki: Even though we should all be 100 percent focused on you own singing and dancing, we tend to notice if the person next us makes even the slightest mistake.

Maki: Since we rehearse almost every single day, we remember even the smallest inconsistencies.

Maki: Of course, no one can see the entire group at once, so we need critiques from someone in the audience.

Maki: Don't look so confused. That's your job! QuestionMark

Maki: You have the best view in the house for our shows. I;m sure you'd notice if anything were even the tiniest bit off.

Maki: Make sure you tell us what you saw after each show. You;re the only one who can do this job, so make sure you take it seriously.

Maki: Oh my, only ten minutes till show time! I need to go. See you later!

 Dress Up (SR Inital Ver.)

Maki: It's like I'm dressed up for a ball or something.

Maki: Would you like to dance with me?

Maki: Huh? You've never danced before? It's okay, I'll properly lead you.

Maki: Come on, get closer to me! You better be thankful that I'm taking the time to teach you!

Maki: Oh? Why are you blushing? Hehe.

Maki's Examination Room (Job Ver. SR)

Maki: It seems like it's just a cold.

Maki: I'll make sure to take proper care of you from now on. ...Just kidding, hehe.

No Matter the Outfit (Animal Ver. SR)

Maki: Why does this outfit come with ears?

Maki: Huh? A leopard costume...? I only wore it because I thought it was an outfit with a leopard print~

Maki: What the hell is this? One of your fetishes...?

Maki: Huh...? I'm the only one in µ's who'd look good in this outfit?

Maki: Th-That's right... That's right. So you do understand!

Maki: With my figure and good looks, there's no outfit out there that doesn't fit me!

I Belong Only to You (August Ver. SR)

Maki: I prefer relaxing on the poolside over swimming.

Maki: ...Why are you staring at me?

Maki: Hmm... did you fall in love with my nice body?

Maki: Hehe, it's good that you're honest!

Maki: What? Everyone's looking at me?

Maki: Geez... We're alone at a private pool so that's not even possible!

Maki: Huh? I'm not angry. I'm not angry...

Maki: I wore this swimsuit just for you, you know.

Maki: So... make sure you only look at me today, okay?

Maki: Argh! Stop making me say embarrassing things!

Drowned-Out Voice (SR September Ver.)

Maki: Going outside when it's this hot... You sure have some weird tastes.

Maki: You wanted to watch the fireworks with me?

Maki: Geez... I'm surprised you can say something so embarrassing.

Maki: Ah... They're starting.

Maki: ...They're beautiful.

Maki: If the sound of the fireworks could drown out my voice...

Maki: Then maybe I could say my feelings out loud.

Maki: Just kidding.

Maki: Look, there are more going up.

Maki: ...You know, I—

Master (Maid Ver. SR)

Maki: Welcome,

Maki: M-M-Mas...!

Maki: ~~~!!

Maki: Y-You know, it's weird to begin with that you're the master!

Maki: Don't you think that I'm more suited for that role?

Maki: ...This is a maid café so I'll still do my job properly.

Maki: Have you decided on your order, "Master"?

Maki: ......

Maki: Hey... Turn and face that way, right now!

Maki: This is so embarrassing. My face is definitely red. There's no way I can show anyone...!

You're so Unfair (October Ver. SR)

Maki: Today's the athletics festival, huh? I'll cheer for you, so go participate.

Maki: Huh? You don't want to do it unless I do it too?

Maki: Oh, stop it. You're not a kid anymore...

Maki: H-Hey, no sulking! That's not fair!

Maki: After all...

Maki: When you're sulking... it's like you're a puppy and I can't leave you alone.

Maki: Okay, fine, I'll go participate too, so cheer up, okay?

Maki: What's an event we can do together... How about the marathon?

Maki: ...You don't have to be so happy.

Maki: Come on, let's get warmed up!

Christmas Memories (December Ver. SR)

Maki: Merry Christmas! I figured I should at least say it, since it's Christmas and all.

Maki: ...I-I know! You want to say that I shouldn't be dressed like this if I don't feel like doing it, right!?

Maki: I only wore it because everyone kept bugging me to.

Maki: I'm not particularly attached to Christmas. I've always had cram school or lessons, so I never had the time.

Maki: I've kinda thought that everyone seemed so stupid, getting so happy about some decorations in the streets.

Maki: ...But now, I'm a bit jealous of the people who can have fun during Christmas.

Maki: "I want to have fun with everyone else on Christmas!" "I want to spend Christmas with that special someone!" ...I've always thought that but could never bring myself to say it.

Maki: So this Christmas feels a bit like it's my first real Christmas.

Maki: It'd be great if the rest of µ's were here too... but the biggest thing is that you're here.

Maki: I may be Santa today... but I feel like I'm the one who's gotten a present.

Dancer on the Ice (Christmas Campaign SR)

Maki: Hey, do you want to skate together?

Maki: Why aren't you saying anything? Did you fall in love with me while watching me skate?

Maki: You're only going to get burned if you get too caught up with the cool Maki-chan.

Maki: Huh!? You're fine with that?

Maki: ...Fine. If you say so, then I'll...

Maki: Here, come closer. I'll make it so that I'm the only one who's ever on your mind. ♪

Maki: ...Though the opposite will probably happen too.

Maki: You said that you were fine with that, so I'm not going to care what happens!

Teasing Phase (January Ver. SR)

Maki: Happy New Year. Let's have another great one together.

Maki: This kimono? My mom wouldn't shut up about making me wear it... I didn't have a choice.

Maki: I look beautiful?

Maki: I sure hope you don't go saying that to every other girl too.

Maki: You don't? ...Well, okay.

Maki: Or rather, you probably think that I'm the prettiest person in the world, don't you?

Maki: H-Hey! You don't have to get that embarrassed!

Maki: If you take it so seriously... then you'll make me be serious about it too...

Maki: It's not like I wasn't serious about it before though...

Maki: M-More importantly, let's get going! We have to go to our first shrine visit of the year!

Something You Want To Try (SR LLSIF Weiss Schwarz Booster)

Maki: What I want to try is... everything.

Maki: I may seem like I can do everything, but that couldn't be further from the truth.

Maki: Before I met everyone, I only tried the things that I thought I could do... It was quite the extreme.

Maki: I really admire how Honoka can just say what she wants to do and follow through on it.

Maki: I'm so lame for being unable to say that I want to try something even though I really want to.

Maki: That's why, from now on, I'm going to try everything I can.

Maki: I might mess up a lot... but don't laugh at me, okay?

Maki: Yep, I knew you'd say that.

I Challenge You! (Setsubun Ver. SR)

Maki: Geez... Why do I have to wear this outfit~!?

Maki: And besides, I'd have beans thrown on me...!

Maki: Ow!

Maki: Ow! Hey, stop throwing beans!

Maki: ...This pisses me off. I'm angry now!

Maki: Wait~!

Maki: Take that! And that! It's "Demons In" this time~!

Maki: Well? Isn't this a fair fight now!?

Maki: ...Pfft! Ahaha! What's with this situation? Though we're laughing like idiots right now.

Maki: This is pretty fun once in a while. How about one more round?

Translation notes:

1: Setsubun is an annual event that takes place on February 3rd. It is accompanied by a ritual called "mamemaki" (lit. bean scattering), where roasted soybeans are thrown at a member of the family who wears a demon mask outside the house (although this is done usually at shrines now). The ritual is used to cleanse away the previous (lunar) year's evil and to drive away evil spirits. 2: While throwing soybeans, those throwing them say "Oni wa soto! Fuku wa uchi!" ("Demons out! Luck in!"). Maki reverses that here.

Spring Is the Season of Parting? (March Ver. SR)

Maki: I believe that spring is the season of parting.

Maki: It was already decided that I'd be in Otonokizaka, so I was depressed all throughout my third year of middle school.

Maki: I didn't want to leave my friends, and I didn't want to come here either...

Maki: Most of all, I hated myself for just doing what my parents told me to do.

Maki: Though, I love it here so much now that I've practically forgotten why I didn't want to come here in the first place... ♪

Maki: I got to meet Honoka. There's Hanayo and Rin, and everyone else.

Maki: Spring may be the season of parting, but it's also the season of new encounters.

Maki: I don't want to worry the friends I left behind... so I want to make the most out of who I am now.

Maki: Hey, what are you spacing out for?

Maki: It's not just me. You have to make the most out of it too. I'll make sure of that. ♪

There's No Deep Meaning Behind This (Flower Viewing Ver. SR)

Maki: It's great that it's sunny today for our flower viewing. ♪

Maki: Though if there were fewer people here, we could relax a bit more...

Maki: But everyone wants to enjoy the cherry blossoms, so there's no helping it.

Maki: Ah, there's a free bench over there. Let's sit together.

Maki: ...The cherry blossoms are so beautiful.

Maki: Just watching them gets rid of all my fatigue and uncertainty.

Maki: Is this what they mean when they say your heart is being soothed?

Maki: I'm glad I got to see them this year too, especially because you're here with me.

Maki: ...Th-There's no deep meaning behind this, okay?

Maki: Let's come back and watch them again next year. For sure.

An Original of Mine (April Ver. SR)

Maki: Yes, of course I'm a fan of sweets too.

Maki: The chocolat framboise cake I had at a pâtisserie last time was to die for.

Maki: You can really taste the raspberries among the rich chocolate... ♪

Maki: Huh? You've never had it before?

Maki: Honoka and Rin told me that they don't know anything that sounds so foreign...

Maki: In that case... You should know about fruits at least, right?

Maki: My favorite's mango.

Maki: They're delicious whether you eat them straight or turn them into juice... And they're great when dried too.

Maki: I've been hooked on smoothies lately, so I've tried mixing mangos together with other fruits.

Maki: Why don't you come over to my place sometime? I'll let you taste my original smoothie. ♪

With My Soulmate... (May Ver. SR)

Maki: My outfit today is based on Sleeping Beauty.

Maki: In a castle surrounded by thorns that nobody can enter, the princess and everyone else sleep for 100 years.

Maki: The same applies to the stars at night, but it's mysterious how she can stay the same after so much time passes.

Maki: And of course, she's awakened by the kiss of the prince... Hehe, how amazing. ♪

Maki: ...It's surprising that I like something like this?

Maki: Why does it matter that I do...!?

Maki: It's such a beautiful story. I don't want to admit that it's just a fairy tale.

Maki: Everyone loves stories that have to do with fate this this! ...Probably.

Maki: One day, with my soulmate, I'd like to...

Maki: I-It's embarrassing... so the rest is a secret. And I'm definitely not telling you of all people, no matter what.

Every Party (June Ver. SR)

Maki: It's annoying how I have to wear a dress every party or recital I attend.

Maki: Huh? Don't you normally go to parties? You don't?

Maki: I was thinking about wearing this one to the party next week. How's it look on me?

Maki: It's cute...? Stop that. Empty praises won't do you any good.

Maki: ...Idiot.

Maki: You are such an idiot.

Maki: Why are you acting like such a sissy if you mean it...?

Maki: Haa... Maybe I'm the idiot here.

Maki: If you've never been to a party before, then I'll take you to one next time.

Maki: I'll be accompanying you, so don't go doing anything weird, okay?

I Want to Go Home... (Ghost Story Ver. SR)

Maki: Uu~ Why do I have to play the ghost...? I want to go home...

Maki: It's dark and I'm all alone... What am I going to do if a ghost actually shows up~!?

Maki: ...!? Wh-What was that sound just now...?

Maki: Ah...! Kyaaa!!

Maki: O-Oh... It was just you...?

Maki: Geez... Geez! You surprised me there! Don't sneak around like that!!

Maki: ...It's not like I'm scared or anything!

Maki: But please... don't leave me here by myself...

Maki: As I thought... I'm not fit to play a ghost. I'm not scared of them but I hate them!

Maki: I'm done for today! I want to change out of this as soon as possible and go shopping with you!

Don't Be so Serious (July Ver. UR)

Maki: The Little Mermaid's outfit is amazing... but I'd never want to actually become her.

Maki: It'd be painful walking on land, and my hands would get wrinkly staying in the water all the time...

Maki: ...Ah, maybe thinking about this so realistically isn't cute...?

Maki: There's nobody else in the water and it'd get boring.

Maki: ...Thinking about it that way, I find myself really happy right now.

Maki: Well, if you come with me to the sea, then that's a different story.

Maki: ...Huh? You will?

Maki: Now I don't know what I'd do...

Maki: Maybe... if you weren't on land and were in the sea... it wouldn't be so bad in the water.

Maki: Hehe. It's just a hypothetical situation. You don't need to be so serious about it.
