Sayoko is cute! Cute!
ML > CG so I'll stay here.
>>148148556
Especially when she doesn't have her glasses on.
Alright here we are, then.
>>148148728
Everyone looks better without glasses.
>>148149075
I agree, shit's so annoying.
>>148149086
You shouldn't lie like that.
>>148149086
There is nothing wrong with glasses.
>>148149086
>>148148573
Boy you sure are triggered by CG
>>148149175
Fuck off, Haruna.
I'm not posting the new chapter because ml threads suck
>>148149338
Just report and ignore.
>>148149075
This one has two ugly MLs but at least their voices don't make me want to kill myself.
Ai is lewd
>>148148950
That's a perfectly reasonable desire.
>>148149024
Does Takane's hair taste like ramen?
>>148149654
Ai needs to be impregnated and follow her mother's path.
>>148149363

Kotoha is busy right now.

Don't believe this poster, Chie is used goods

Cutest JC.
CG's great if you only want to hear from your wife once every three months.
>>148149363
No, Megumi, I know for a fact you don't party. Okay? You do not party!
>>148150310
in a good way?
>>148149802
I'll be the one to take responsability for my actions
>>148149950
As many people believe in Chie as do modern citizens of Rome believe in the Pantheon gods.
NONE.
>>148150378
You can't take responsibility.
She will never become the top idol if you take responsibility.
>>148150113
Too bad. Call the party off, I'm going home.
>>148150438
This is an idolm@ster thread.

DAMN RIGHT IT IS
>>148150281
Me about to be buggered.
>>148150553
when will you learn to report & ignore
>>148150438
I mean, I don't mind CG but I'd like to have 100 posts without a single mention of them.
>>148150438
MLfags do nothing but ship and ERP, they are the true cancer and deserve to be deported to /jp/
Not /a/ because no one cares about the ML manga and it doesn't have an anime.
>>148150720
/a/ doesn't even know ML exists.
>>148149493
CG didn't ruin Berserk, Berserk ruined Berserk.
If they give a shit about Berserk, they would've given it CG that wasn't shit.
Then again, Berserk was shit in the first place. So shit turning to shit doesn't change much.
Also, Miura is a Chihayafag. So a man gets a shit adaptation of his shitty work.
It's like pottery.
All that falseflaggin
Gotta report em all!
>>148150712
>I don't mind CG but a single mention of it triggers me
Stop replying to yourself
When will you nerds learn to ignore bait? It's not like he's even being subtle about it.

>>148150843The first Berserk anime was pretty good.
>>148150203
Deus est idolism
>>148150896
Pretty sure the guy I was replying to is three posts above me. As much as you like it to be "one guy" it isn't only one bothered, although I hardly mention it.
>>148150982
Fuck yeah, CG, indeed
>>148150712
You can't fight the CG domination. The era of ML being relevant is gone.
Megumi Happy!
>>148149493
>CG ruined Berserk
Nah that was 765
It was all over when Miura bought a Xbox
>>148151108

Basa and Mirai.
14 years old.

No Basa, no Buy.
>>148151009
Jesus, those legs.
>>148151580
Ayy.
>>148151630
Basa get away from Mirai, you will corrupt her with your lewd behaviour.
>>148150720
>MLfags do nothing but ship and ERP
This, I don't know why but whenever MLs come up it's nearly always ERP stuff about how people want to fuck idols
At least with the 765s and CGs we can actually talk about games
>>148151580
>>148151257
>>148141559
>>148151521
Yumeko and Cineria getting animated would've been the tits.
>>148151749
They are good friends.
>>148150925
Blatant shitposting aside, you know very well that some hipsters here are genuinely upset about how popular CG is.
>it's CGfags shitting on MLfags again episode
>>148151630
I'm not selling her.
You know the disclaimer. Use her but don't break her.
>>148151260
It's not too late to change those bad ways of yours!
>>148152006
Vice versa.
>>148152173
>replying to it

>>148151260
I don't think I ever want her to get voiced.
THIS IS ALL SCANNER-KUN'S FAULT.
>>148152243
>scanner-kun
>>148151765
That's because only one or two guys actually play ML (and with playing I mean reading, listening and understanding Japanese, not just doing random shit to see what happens) and we rely on the cards translations from that one anon. I like the ML girls a lot but I can't learn Japanese just like that so I'd rather post cute pics about them (and shipping has never been a big deal here).
OG: Has the games we all know about.
CG: Haha just like ML, nobody fucking plays it, the only translations are the Theaters.
SS: Yeah there are one or two quite active translators around yet it doesn't stop people from actively shipping and ERPing though.
>>148151654
When you see it...
>>148147915
>The one who wanted one bit scans?
Yeah. That nutjob.
Pic related is an example of what he wanted things to be like. 8-bit up top, 1-bit bottom.
This image also serves as a great example of how PNG is superior for manga.
>>148152323
jokes on you I play CGyou really should stop replying to posts which are obviously trying to stir shit up between CG and ML
Nana is the schadenfreude idol.
I used to hate her before because I was just taking her Planet Usamin crap at face-value, but now I finally understand her true appeal.
>>148152339
>Sample
>>148152406
That surprisingly good for 1bit, even.
With most sources you wouldn't be able to pull that kind of job done.
>>148152595
Oh you
>>148152323
>nobody fucking plays it
The fact that quite a few people ended up posting stuff with the new Puchi photo system says otherwise.
>>148152323
I play CG, SIDEM and ML anon.
>>148152853
>SIDEM
haha u r gay
>>148151260
Hotaru a cute.
>>148152496
I didn't think he was wrong but it's not like it's not understandable why ML hardly gets actual game/character discussion outside of shipping.
I highly doubt any of you guys have the business management degrees necessary to professionally become a legitimate idol producer, or else you'd be in Japan living the dream right now, ruining others' dreams by overworking them and entangling them into sex scandals.
So what real life skills do you have that would make you remotely qualified to be a producer anyway? Any team leader experience? Musical or performance hobbies?Were you yourself in a high school idol project, even?
>>148152694
>quite a few people
They were all from twitter with the exception of one or two guys from here, so just about as many as those who "play" ML.
>>148153142
I was on a walk and some old guy called me out and told me I was golden for the job.
>>148153142
I'm more of a improvised stage comedy performer
>>148153142
I only want to produce cute 2d idols.
>>148153142
I have no redeeming qualities related to producing idols, so Takagi would probably hire me
>>148153142
Loving your idols is the most important thing.
>>148153570
DELETE THIS
>>148153608
Phisically?
>>148153142
Probably none.
Which im@s songs are best for help with staving off suicidal thoughts?
>>148153142
I can be like Pep Guardiola and be a producer and let my assistants and idols do the hard work
>>148153916
Yakusoku.
>>148153142
My bones are made out of idols.
>>148153916
Drive A Live.
>>148152323
Of course every branch has shipping and ERPing. Thing is, around here, that's basically all ML adds. Character discussion boils down to "x is y years old, should we lewd her yes or no" and that's it.
>>148153916

How I can turn away from sin when it is you who leads me to it?
Hijiri fucking Mochizuki.
>>148153142
I literally have a business administration degree from one of the most respected universities in my country.
I actually got a job offer from one of the major TV stations in my country. It was for marketing/advertising, but my country's entertainment industry sucks and I want nothing to do with that shit.
So here I am right now, a corporate slave fiddling with numbers. But hey, at least I'm not doing something I detest with my entire being.
Besides, 3D idols a shit. 2D aidorus all the way.
>>148153142
I'm pretty good at dancing if that counts as something

Relations
>>148153142
My INTJ personality means I'd probably excel at the management aspects of producing, but I'd need to be with an idol I can really connect with. I also look good in a suit.
>>148153723
You decide, you are the producer.
>>148153916

>>148154550
Itsuda- Wait that's not right.

I want Chihaya to cover Komm Susser Tod.
>>148154973
I can't believe Chihaya is fucking Jesus
Okay so can you guys tell me what would be on an advertisement for producers. What qualifications would they ask for in say 346 (since 765's all depends on destiny and shit)
>>148155060
Wow lewd.
>>148153142
I'd probably only be good as one of those self-sufficient, starter producers, good for like maybe 3-5 idols' worth of work on a small indie scale until some big company plays pity and picks me up.
I'm a musician as a guitarist/bassist, so I know music. I'm a fashionfag, so I know outfits. My sister used to be in a competitive dance team, so by observation, I know how to orchestrate a cha-cha routine (and other, more acceptable dances). I'm a photographer, so I don't need a studio for my own promos. And my own team leader at work sees me as leader material, so I guess I'm the people's officer.
All these skills, and I can't settle on doing one fucking important career-like thing in life.
>>148155060
What girl would be able to resist Jesus? He's a handsome guy you know
>>148155096
>What qualifications would they ask for in say 346
Be a superhuman who can manage and promote almost 200 idols at once, and probably only sleep 1 hour a night.

That's why you have an AI-processed android be your assistant producer, where they essentially do all the work for you, and never tire or stress out. But make sure their brain map closely matches a human and is capable of making mistakes and speech interpretation, unless your AP takes too many idol requests quite literally...
>>148155224
The satanist idols.
>>148155716
Fuck yeah
>>148155716
Ignore the page skip. I scanned the bonus page at the end earlier so that the filenames would be even.
>>148155224

>>148155928

>>148156110
>>148156110
Takumi has nice basketballs
>>148156110
Big fat rude tits
Why do I like Yui so much more than Miki?
>>148156338
>>148156501
Not as high maintenance.
>>148156501
You like stoners.
>>148156501
Because they're different characters with different personalities
>>148156501
Good taste
>>148156338
I'll never understand why nip dudes try to pick up women in groups. Are they too scared to try it alone or something?
>>148156501
The lack of significant memes other than being Not-Miki?
>>148156657
That might actually be the reason.

>>148155679
Pretty nice.
>>148156657
Maybe they like to share
>>148156657
It's a competition, anon.
A battle of the fittest.
>>148156657
Because only losers do things alone in public.
>>148156876
>>148156657
Gangbangs, bro. Why wouldn't you want to fuck a hot girl with your bros?
>>148157116

>>148157180
That shit's gay
>>148157215
She's Takumi's other half
>>148157449
I don't want you to Poyo~~
>>148157423
>>148157180
Because I wouldn't want to share a hot body like Takumi's.
>>148157653
TakumiP no don't let your eyes wander
>>148157663
A girl like Takumi could fit at least three guys at once.
>>148157653
>>148156501
Poor taste.
How much I appreciate Rina depends on how much the artist downplays the partially shaved head.
the japanese kirby at it again
>>148157876

That was posted two threads ago.

You're late to the party.

Didn't see it in the news post
>>148159829
>>148159743

literally all the other Ps you listed are cooler than him
>>148159743
>Phead = DoubleBiceps
Hell yeah motherfucker.
>>148159743
>AkaP not Cute
>>148160098
>>148160136
And all the other idols are cooler than a dork like Ranko, but she's still cool type.
>>148160098
REI STRONG.
Kinda hoping she appears regularly like Rookie did in the NG manga. The sisters need more love.
>>148160136
Piloting Mazinger is pretty cool.
>>148159743
>TakeP = Cute
>AkaP = Cool
You got them mixed up.
TakeP is the cool one, AkaP is the cute one.
>>148159743
TakeP = Cool
AkaP = Cute
SMP = Passion
>>148160136
>>148160250
TakeP is cuter(and has more mental problems)
Even with MikiMiki and Harurun, he's not slutty enough to be a Passion
lacks Double Biceps, defaults to Cool
>>148160372
>>148160136
Cool idols are not cool, they are cute. There's a reason all the nerds end up in the Cool category.
>>148160675
>AkaP in SideM never
>TakeP in SideM never
>MojiP in SideM never
It's like Namco hates money
>>148160964
>MojiP in SideM
What's his backstory? Born with a freakish P for a head?
If TakeP is Cool and AkaP is CUte, will ML-P be Passion?
>>148160964
Side M's premise is that the idols all left a job before becoming idols. A producer in Side M means that producer was a failure who abandoned his production company.
>>148161051
Freakish P for a headimplying MojiP isn't an ultry shy bishounen that copes by using the P head like Pierre does the frog suit
>>148161051
You are thinking of MajiP.
MojiP is Kuroi's son.
>>148160962
>>148160717
>all the nerds end up in the Cool category
Ahem.
>>148161201
I meant MajiP.
My mistake.
>>148161278
