Nishi launched the Kakko Naki manga (image right) in Shogakukan's Zōkan Flowers magazine in November 2020. Shogakukan published a single compiled book volume of the manga in December 2022.

Nishi released a one-shot manga titled "Kaki no Hanashi" (The Story of Persimmons, seen right) in Zōkan Flowers in March 2020.

JManga published two volumes of Nishi's four-volume series Kyudo Boys, about the romantic relationships of a group of high school boys, digitally in English before the site ended service.

Nishi's Otoko no Isshō (A Man's Lifetime) manga received a live-action film adaptation in 2015. Her Otō-san, Chibi ga Inakunarimashita (Father, Chibi is Gone) manga inspired a live-action film that opened in Japan in May 2019.
