Herami Shimai wa Docchi mo Yanderu - Vol. 5 Ch. 24

Honestly, if this were the ending chapter, which it probably will be, then I wouldn't be too sad about it. I absolutely want more, but this is good enough of an ending for me. Wraps things good enough. But, ugh. I'm PRAYING that we get to see more, that we get to see more of the siblings having a healthier relationship with each other, and that we get to see more of Sera becoming more and more recognized, hopefully to the point where she can perform at the same concert as her sister.


Edit: THANK FUCKING GOD I AM WRONG! 25 CHAPTERS AND STILL GOING BABYYYYYY!

I'll be honest, I dont get at all why they aren't doing the duo with Kyapi. I thought they were making it obvious that Sera catering to Kira's unrealistic expectations was a bad thing. That was her one realistic option for becoming an idol, now we're going back to hopeless auditions and false promises and the story is portraying that as a good thing. I don't get it.

I agree that doing the duo with Kyapi would have been right for developing her skills and image as an idol and catering to Kira's unrealistic expectations would be bad. While I think that it was a good opportunity for Sera, it would have come at the consequence of her own dream with Kira which despite it not working out so far, was her original and truest goal. She had doubts herself about whether becoming an idol with Kyapi would have made her(sera) happy.

I think the author decided instead of making this Sera's glow up/big move, this arc is for Sera and Kira to finally face each other where they truly are and break each other's delusions and expectations for each other. As we see, Kira finally judges Sera's performance for what it is, amateurish and lacking rather than living in her own delusions of who she believes her sister is (not a perfect idol, but a terrible idol that she still loves).

I think if this story continues, which I hope it does. She'll get another opportunity, but this time instead of it costing her promise and dreams, she'll actually work hard on her skills, appearance and mindset of being an idol (recognizing being an idol is for the fans not the performer).
