IDOL×IDOL STORY! - Ch. 53 - Tough Times Ahead

I kind of forgot Ibuki had issues with her former idol group.

 

[mianghuei]

Easy least lemon squeezey 😂

 

[Razsius]

Uh... Ritsu can't actually sympathize with you Ibuki she's never been an idol.

Can we get some Fs in chat for these poor girls (Ibuki + Mimi) who had lousy teammates that didn't want to go anywhere? SSS must be an absolute God send to them. Yes, even the "problem children" Yuuri and Anon are infinitely better then people that don't even want to try.

It's looking like Mimi's going to be having Anon call her "mommy" before long .

Suzu and Shuri slowly building their own ship together.

What a great chapter!

 

[parasyticghoul]

I feel like the relationship chart hasn't been updated in a while.

 

[RolandMayfield]

Thanks for the chapter!

I think momo will have to write it in the end.

 

[Xical]

MimiMamaSuke will make Anon a respectable team members by the end of this round or the team will fail miserably, not middle point.

Is not that their former teammates "didn't want to go anywhere " and more that their destination was different, like the leader of Ibuki's former group said, want to keep being been a (relative?) underground idol group, same (for what we have seen) for MimiSuke former group.

 

[KZO]

Just from that line that's clearly a love song for Mimi.

 

[skylithos]

Mimi is on anon correction path 💢💢

 

[Koden]

I was expecting the relationship chart to have another 'Troublemaker' line from Mimi to Anon.

Still Mimi is an older sister she can handle Anon.

 

[PzArrow]

Hmm, this round is pretty hard to predict on who's gonna get booted.
At first I thought Shiori will take the fall because of Bukki and Ritsu butting heads too much and screwing up.
Then I thought Anon might get booted because of her issues but now she has plot armor because of Mimi.
Interesting last page though, I wonder what's the deal with Urara now.

Even if Mimis team lost Anon wouldn't be kicked anyway since she is a white star and if i remember correctly the lowest rank of the team gets the boot.
Honestly i want Urara to lose but she won't get kicked off the boat since she is a white star so i am still stuck with her

 

[Manko-sensei]

That chart is getting outdated and small, there's a lot of arrows missing, specially one from Mommysuke to Anon! I have to agree with Anon though, if you don't jump into the water when you feel like it that just means that you're turning into a boring adult. It seems Buki's lyrics will turn into the perfect love song towards Mimi!

The only "destination" they were headed for was giving up. It's stagnation which eventually just destroys the idol group. The entire point of being an idol is to reach as many people as you can. The minute you stop doing that is the minute you stop being an idol. Stella didn't want to "keep being an underground idol group" they gave up and it did a real number on Mimi's psyche. The manga starts with Mimi calling herself "an ordinary person with no talent."

Sugar Smile's leader, on the other hand, outright admits that they didn't practice as often without Ibuki and that they'd be getting worse which would lead to exactly what would happen with Stella. Ibuki saw the writing on the wall. They were headed for collapse without her but she did light a final parting fire under their rears.

Seriously... the poor girl was happy to just have teammates that come to practice!!!

 

[ciera]

Thanks for the update

 

[zokoi19]

thanks for the chapter!!!

ngl a bit sad that we don't know much about Shiori's relationships and how she literally has no arrow pointing to/from her at all

 

[yanderecoverl]

They probably got this. Ibuki and mimisuke should get more time for each other

I don't think Urara's going anywhere until the end; she's a perfect fit to be one of the losers of the final round. Anon seems like a safe bet to reach the final round too, but I keep flip-flopping on whether she'll win or lose once she gets there.

This round definitely isn't as easy to call as last round was -- at least not yet. We've hardly seen Team Karin or the other two members of Team Urara this round, which leads me to believe they'll all be safe. It probably goes without saying that it's not gonna be Mimi or Ibuki or Ritsu or Hitoe. Shuri definitely seems like the safer of Team Suzu's two members.

So by process of elimination, as it stands I think we're realistically looking at either Shiori or Suzu.

 

[Roodypatooti]

Mimi mama...

 

[Koden]

It is way too early to try predict who will be eliminated.
The winners of the interim test and the top three of the viewers vote get immunity, so that is potentially 6 girls.

At this point i think it is better to discuss who will win the interim test.
Personally I think it would either be team Ibuki or team Suzu, as they are the only teams without any problems.
