The iDOLM@STER 11: Idols Are Suffering

No Haruka, I expect you to die.

Unless Yayoi suddenly became Haruka, I just cannot see how she can be so clumsy all of a sudden, which means that someone else has to be at fault. How people keep defending Chihaya is beyond me; she would stoop so low as to intentionally sabotage poor Yayoi with her infectious ineptitude and suffering. Just because you have a miserable life, it does not mean you have to go your way out to ruin other people's :evil:

Setsuna, why is your waifu so out of tune? I always had the impression that she would at least be an 'all-round' idol but it seems that is hardly the case. Why, I would even think that spending all that time with Chihaya has been detrimental to her stat growth. Either way, if there were any doubts that Haruka is the 'main character', then she has certainly cemented her role as the one who keeps everybody's morale and spirit in check in a way a 'leader' would.

Haruka: The spaghetti is good!

Chihaya: MY BROTHER IS DEEEEEEEAAAAD

I really wished that they did not pan the shot like this, since it implies that we really are going to get more Chihaya screentime down the line. Without giving too much away ( :roll: ), let's just say that the little boy in the photograph is the primary contributor to Chihaya's current state. Hopefully, future Chihaya episodes will also be a joint one like this, since she and Haruka really do have that chemistry going on, which makes one of them more tolerable at least.

（＞＜） So it finally came back to bite Broducer in the ass. While he has not been doing much for the past couple of episodes, I feel that he does not deserve Miki's indignation - Miki may have worked harder than ever before, but so did the other members, and it would be unfair for the rest of them if she got picked somehow (even if she is by far the most talented). It does serve as a good wake up call for Miki who is not aware she has a self-entitlement complex, coupled by the fact she has probably never faced any hardships or failure. Next week seems to pick up where this episode left off, so it looks likely it would be centred around Miki and the possibility of a defection.

Here's the bit that got me all confused - Show ▼

    Yayoi wasn’t clumsy, she was just slow. Her dancing stats in the game are the lowest, after all.

    Sorry Mr. Charlie Shin, video footage and pictures proves that Yayoi was the one at fault. There is also the DNA sample.

    That is why I don´t like dancing and stuff like that, I am the Yukiho in the group. :feels bad man: :cry:

    One word for Miki: TREASON!!! BETRAYAL!!! :evil:

    Waaaaah Chihaya :cry: those danboorus. Her apartment’s so empty and what a NEET room would look like (if a NEET were tidy of course).

    I like how Haruka was really a friend’s friend to Chihaya, keeping happy even if Chihaya tries to insert her “sadness” into the conversation. She’s asking relevant questions, but pulls back when she realizes the depth of the answer.
    C: “Waaaa my parents are divorced”
    H: “Gero-gero!”

      She’s the main character after all! But yes, for all her faults, Haruka seems to have a keen sense of not offending people, which is a contrast to Miki who spoke her mind and made Yukiho feel bad ww

    >implying she wasn’t purposely being out of tune to make Chihaya feel better about herself.

    That aside this episode sure ended with one heck of a cliffhanger. I can’t wait to see how P-san digs himself outta this mess.

    We learn from this episode that Chihaya eats nothing but convenience store food and vitamin supplements. This is why she has no boobs (thankfully).

    Also, loli Chihaya DO WANT.

      I think Chihaya is anorexic, so whatever she eats she will regurgitate it later on anyway. I wonder if constant puking would harm her vocal chords. It’ll be a pity if the only thing she is remotely good at is taken away from her…

    I demand that you go watch Baka to Testo to Shokanjuu Ni! (season 2) and write about raping Hideyoshi Kinoshita again!
    Oh and have a look at No.6 and Mayo Chiki! as well.

      It may just be me, but BakaTesto 2 pales in comparison to the first season, though I must admit Hideyoshi is a lot more delicious this time around.

      I didn’t bother with No6, and have Mayo Chicken in my backburner :oops:

        True, it does feel like they dragged a lot but there’s some development in romance between Yoshii and Minami. I just think some parts were just too repetitive and ridiculously silly, but overall it isn’t bad. Hideyoshi makes up for everything :roll:
