Plot
Plot
To make herself seem "normal" to her friends and coworkers, Uno Hinako throws herself in makeup, fashion, and trying to fall in love. But despite her best efforts, all her attempts at "normal" romance with men keep falling flat. A new normal emerges in the form of her connection with Asahi Sato, a sensible woman whom Hinako works with, just as she begins to fear that she might be alone forever. What starts as respect slowly moves into something more intimate.

Reception
The series has received positive reviews. Anime News Network gave the first and second volume of Doughnuts Under a Crescent Moon an overall A− rating, praising the series for tackling how adults deal with their own identities. Silverman noted in her review of volume 2 that Doughnuts Under a Crescent Moon was similar to another current yuri title, Whisper Me a Love Song, in that it appeared to have a protagonist that exhibited signs of being on the asexual or demisexual spectrum. While praising this from the point of view of representation, they did worry about the "conflation of homosexuality and asexuality in manga about queer characters" but were open to seeing how the series progressed with such themes. Erica Friedman of Okazu gave the final volume an overall rating of 10 out of 10, praising the series as a whole and remarking that "this manga checks off so many of the things that makes a good manga for me – adult women building different kinds of relationships with the women around them, emotional intimacy of differing kinds with those women and adult women breaking free of the constraints put upon them by society, family and themselves."
