Mayuzuki’s most famous work is the series After the Rain, which was serialized in Shogakukan's Monthly Big Comic Spirits magazine in June 2014, before moving to the magazine Weekly Big Comic Spirits in January 2016 and finished in March 2018.

After the Rain was later adapted as both an animated TV series, and a live action movie.
Starting from November 2019, her work Kowloon Generic Romance, which is based on Kowloon Walled City in Hong Kong, is serialized in Shueisha's Weekly Young Jump. According to Mayuzuki, she had the idea of launching a series about Kowloon Walled City even when After the Rain was still serialized. She likes the topic of Kowloon Walled City and first knew about it from Kowloon's Gate when she was young.{{cite web|author=高橋史彦|url=https://nlab.itmedia.co.jp/nl/articles/2002/19/news012.html|script-title=ja:編集者は漫画家を助ける“壁”――『恋は雨上がりのように』作者が最新作『九龍ジェネリックロマンス』を作るまで (1/3)|work=ねとらぼ|date=February 19, 2020|access-date=June 27, 2020|language=ja}}
