Aoba is getting sidelined pretty hard. She already lost the previous competition for no reason and now her rival is getting more popular than her.

So how long before Aoba finally gets spotlight again? Her announcement was like 2 pages and then back to spotlighting everyone else around her instead.

Momoji seems to be involved in most of the drama ever since she got introduced huh?

I completely agree with Momiji's final decision here. She'll be under Aoba's shadow forever as long as she's working on Eagle Jump. Even the thing Kou offered her just then relates to that.
Like she herself said, Kou doesn't care about her, the one Kou cares about is Aoba, it doesn't matter the reason, but Kou is decidedly on the Aoba camp. Eagle Jump is not the place where she will grow as a pro.
That said, I seriously dislike how she was reluctant to go for it because "it would hurt Aoba's feelings". How about thinking about your own feelings, Momiji?

She should just leave then. Saves her and us from the trouble. She created almost all of the drama ever since she was introduced. Sooner we get rid of her the better.

Well that contract sure is flexible then, also yeah... She's too much drama "It hurt Aoba" huuuuh then what about competing with her and taking the main character design as you wanted originally FOR THE SECOND TIME? wasn't that going to hurt her again ? I'm not sure if she wants to replace Aoba, work with her or something else.

man it all leads back to Momiji everytime with drama and this does feel bad for Aoba since she has basically got shit on for quite some time now

@CookieMuncher I appreciate you scanning this series! I'm more frustrated that the author keeps treating Aoba like a punching bag. I'm going to keep reading unless this truly becomes a tire fire in Momiji's favour.

I can understand the complaints about Aoba lacking screentime, it truly has been a while since, but saying she's the author punching bag is just silly when she was just given free pass for her biggest dream to become reality.
That said, now that we're complaining about lack of focus, I wanna whine about Hifumi's utter lack of. Heck, I think she's the only character so far without a real focus character arc.

At least the drama was solved in the same chapter. The only thing that can happen now is that she for some reason can't deal with 2 jobs at the same time, which is something even my little brother can do and he's 22.

Fuck, she's 21.

@Midoriha She wasn't really given a free pass. For the Fairy series it has never been a competition, the team lead decides the character designer that best fits their image of what the game will be. Momiji winning the last competition was more akin to a free pass because she technically lost on skill. Agreed on the lack of Hifumi screen time, thank god we have the volume 11 cover.

Four paths here:

* Momiji has a burn-out juggling both, Kou gets depressed not having been more "forceful" in keeping her staff dedicated - though keeping staff happy sometimes compensates for this [actual interesting storyline dealing with overwork]
* Hotaru gets hired at EJ literally the same job as Momiji and just nails everything effortlessly, ticking Momiji off [Momiji may storm out]
* Hotaru somehow swipes the LN from Momiji, again effortlessly [Momiji may storm out]
* Momiji realizes she's heading for a burn-out, gets introduced to Hotaru by "chance" (event with Aoba), and introduces Hotaru to the LN people. Hotaru then proceeds to knock that one out of the park effortlessly, and yet still fcks off to France after because meh [actual interesting storyline dealing with overwork, with a side of "let's actually solve this"]

Off the top of my head.

Aoba is the only one for Kou. 🤷🏿‍♂️ Can't be helped.
