If you told me two years ago that Tsubasa would become one of my favorite characters with his own interesting B-plot I would've said you were crazy but here we are

 

[ItzUhMe]

Where's the cute girls

 

[Xamdiz]

Tsubasa is such a naive guy lmao

 

[mianghuei]

Oh God Tsubasa no!!!!

 

[usernamena]

Nice Tsuabsa chapter great guy. Now Tsubasa and Karin's mother need to kiss

 

[SatansBestBuddy]

hmmm, feel like this could have been seeded a bit better

seeing Aria's human side without the lens of celebratory worship is a kind of running theme I guess?

but she hasn't exactly been pinning for a mother she doesn't have or a family she never got, at least not to this point

I guess being called アリア by her father and brother is more significant than I thought?

well this is a Tsubasa centric chapter so whatever, very funny that he doesn't have any faith in himself being chosen as the next company head while we see his dad just casually saying he's all in on making Tsubasa company head

Thank you for the scanlation

That's kinda what happens when a new sibling shows up on your doorstep, out shining you every step on the way to adulthood.

They were right to call Tsubasa a fool... He is not bad, but he is as sharp as a marble.

I'll never get over how Aria's given name is really three kanjis long. Reminds me of how Mayuzumi Fuyuko from Idolm@ster has only 1 letter for her surname but three whole letters for her given name (黛 mayuzumi 冬優子 fuyuko). Like, damn.

 

[Angoldd]

Thanks for the TL!

I guess something happened to Aria's mom so that's why she stopped replying.

 

[kaptenkeren]

Ha... Why Im thinking it's related to Epstein files. Lol....

 

[RPG217]

Good thing Ai didn't get stabbed by her fan for having a kid in this timeline

 

[yoorie19]

I think big idol franchise like Idolm@ster should take a note from Aisuto on how to write realistic corporate antagonists in their stories.

Think I'm starting to root for the guy tbh. He's actually just really bad at all the underhanded stuff. When he's tested he actually gives fair/positive scores and has a somewhat discerning eye for talent and the like (picking up that Mimi's going to be blockbuster big). Now, he's out to defend his dad's honor.

He's a good man LARPing a bad villain. He needs a good character arc for growth and it's likely he'll get one.

 

[kanjutbautai]

is nobody unlikeable in this manga

 

[LordTartaros]

Good enough... welcome back Oshi no ko!

 

[Soneca]

is nobody unlikeable in this manga

I'd say the tabloid reporter is getting there for me.

Definitely didn't expect this sort of thing to appear in the story, but it isn't all that surprising.

As always, tyvm FlameSubsScans for the scanlation!
