I became a girl group idol for my sister.

[I've decided! I'm going to buy three copies of the single and three copies of the Blu-ray! One for my collection, one for spreading the word, and one for myself! I believe in Nana-chan and the others; Stardust Girl definitely won't let us down!]

[It's not like you can't trust Shinichiro Watanabe. He's the person who created a work like "Cowboy Bebop," an absolutely top-tier producer, and the character designs are by Mai Yoneyama. Don't worry, the chances of it flopping are very low.]

[So last time it was Bandai that was burning money, and now it's Risa Amagai, right?]

[Speaking of which, if it were GAINAX, would Hideaki Anno also be involved?]

[What are you thinking upstairs? Not only has Hideaki Anno left GAINAX to start his own company, but if he joined, along with Shinichiro Watanabe, two people who spend money recklessly without any restraint, are you sure this anime series will ever be finished?]

[It's okay, it's okay. It's fine to daydream a little. Besides, if it really doesn't work out, we can just make the later episodes black and white. If we don't even have that kind of money, we can just use rough sketches!]

[www! What kind of sequel is this, "Leap Over the Peak"?!]

[Regardless, seeing the fearless light in their eyes on stage, and seeing Nana resolutely step forward to accept the challenge after noticing her companions' gazes, I decided that I would follow in their footsteps!]

[I'll say it again: I see the figure of a god; that girl will be a future god! My prediction is that they will once again give everyone a tremendous surprise!]

[Ah, Prophet Bro is here again. But you're right, the feeling they have is something you can't get from those idols who rise steadily these days. Sometimes I can't even tell if they're in the main group or graduate students. Maybe that's why Risa Amagai created this kind of challenge.]

[Is it because these three people have surpassed ordinary people?]

[Don't you think so, upstairs?]

[Trust them. They've never let us down so far. And don't forget, the one leading the charge is Miyamoto Nana, who insisted on performing for over an hour with a smile even when she had a fever of over 40 degrees Celsius, not wanting her fans to notice anything amiss!]

There were doubts, concerns, and people who fully supported him. Looking at these discussions, Miyamoto couldn't help but smile. He turned off his phone, leaned back in his chair, and slowly exhaled.

He found himself liking this feeling more and more.

This feeling of being supported, this feeling of being followed...

……

"So what is this guy, Tenbei, doing? Planning to spend hundreds of millions to make an anime series for three graduate students? Is she crazy?" Noo Kanta looked at the news with a face full of sarcasm: "This money would be better spent on advertising, the effect would probably be much better."

"President, when this news came out, the search rankings surpassed ours for a moment, but now they've started to decline and will soon fall below Miya-san again."

The company employee, holding a tablet, was showing Noo Kanta data from a search engine.

"It's alright, don't worry. It's just temporarily gaining popularity. Besides, with three people who are likely only good at reading in a flat tone as the main voice actors, it's foreseeable that this anime is doomed."

Kanta Noo placed the tablet on the table.

"I'm really looking forward to seeing the expression on Tenbe Risa's face when she suffers a huge loss."

"SKR is going to lose badly this time," a member said, echoing the other person's words.

"Where's Miya? What's she doing?"

"I'm practicing now. I practice very hard every day. Whenever I have nothing else to do, I'm in the dance studio. I often train for several hours in a row, spending more than ten hours a day practicing."

"This is the manifestation of ambition. Her ambition has become her driving force. As for her two dance partners, they will also be driven by her ambition. If they don't want to be fired, they can only try their best to keep up with each other."

Noo Kanta smiled, his eyes narrowing slightly.

"Stardust Girls? The war has begun. It will be an asymmetrical war. Poor Stardust Girls, they will be quickly crushed by Miya and will never be able to become official members. How pitiful."

……

Inside the dance studio, three girls who had just finished training were sitting in chairs.

In front of them was a fairly long table, which was covered with various snacks and drinks such as chocolate milk tea.

The spacious dance studio was air-conditioned, allowing the girls to wear sexy clothes.

For example, the girl with short hair was wearing a top that exposed her navel, with a bow tied at the back of the hem, leaving her entire back bare. Combined with her hot pants, she looked exceptionally sexy and full of youthful energy.

After taking a casual bite of the pizza, the short-haired girl put it aside.

"I really don't like the taste of this pizza. If you want to order from this pizza again next time, you can leave."

The girl glanced at the person in charge of snacks, her tone sounding gentle, but what she said sent chills down one's spine.

"I-I understand, Miya-san, I'll go and change the pizza right away!"

As the person in charge spoke, he immediately stepped forward and removed the pizza, as if the girl in front of him was not a girl, but some kind of terrifying demon.

Miya blinked, a gesture that looked incredibly cute.

"Okay, remember that. Change it quickly. What I like to eat is something you need to remember completely. That's your job. I was going to fire you right away."

These words made the person in charge quicken their pace as they left with the pizza, almost running out of there.

“Alright, let me see. Stardust Girl? Which company is she from?” Miya held a milk tea in one hand and picked up the document in front of her with the other. The document contained photos of Miyamoto Nana, Komatsu Mika, and Nagasu Miyu.

"They are under King Records, but they originally came from SKR, so they are probably temporarily affiliated with them."

"King Records, huh? And what about the label?"

Labels and record companies are often categorized together, but it's not that simple. Companies like King Records and Sony Music actually have many music labels under their umbrella, which is why this question comes up.

"It doesn't seem like anything has been decided yet."

"Really?" Miya put the documents back on the table and took another sip of her milk tea. "Anyway, King Records is already finished, and they're just a bunch of guys who don't look that great. We don't need to take them too seriously, right?"

Although her smile was cute, it was full of disdain.

Chapter Six Meeting

October 1, Wednesday.

Miyamoto Sei once again chose to skip class.

There's nothing we can do about it; there's a very important task we have to do today.

Inside the Amagawa Agency, located far from the theater, Miyamoto Sei, Nagasu Miyu, and Komatsu Mika sat in chairs, waiting for the next person to appear.

"I'm so nervous, I'm about to meet Mr. Watanabe and Ms. Mai Yoneyama..." Miyu Nagayasu whispered, reaching out her hand and grasping Miyamoto Se's hand that was lying to the side: "Nana-chan, let me shake your hand!"

If Mai Yoneyama is someone that only hardcore otaku would know, then Shinichiro Watanabe is a celebrity that most people know. His "Cowboy Bebop" and "Samurai Champloo" are definitely popular works that are vying for the title of the best in many places.

It's no wonder that Miyuki Yongan was nervous; it meant they were about to meet a powerful figure and would be working together for some time to come.

"There's no need to be so nervous. You're an idol, you have to learn to control your emotions and your image," Mika Komatsu said. However, Miyamoto could tell from the slight rise and fall of her chest that Mika Komatsu was actually quite nervous at the moment.

As for Miyamoto himself, he was actually quite nervous. He was even more nervous about meeting Watanabe Shinichiro than about meeting Higashi Hisako Ogiko.

After all, of the three people, he's the real otaku!

"Phew... It's okay. Just prepare properly, and nothing will go wrong. Besides, we're idols. We just need to show the same attitude we have when we're with our fans!"

As Miyamoto spoke, he gently patted the back of Nagayasu Miyu's hand with his free hand to reassure her.

Meanwhile, in another location, Tenbe Risa was sitting with a man and a woman, looking at the screen in front of them.

The screen showed three girls talking to each other. If Miyamoto Sei were here, he would recognize them; the three girls in the screen were waiting for him in the office.

"How is it?" Tenbei Lisa asked the two people beside her.

The man stroked his chin and smiled: "They're three very good people. I understand now why you wanted me to use them as the main characters in my creation."

“I think we still need to get to know them better,” the woman next to her said. “If we’re going to create characters based on these three, we’ll need to get to know them better over the next period of time.”

“Of course, but I still hope that the script will go according to my own ideas in terms of its general direction,” Risa Tenbei said to the two of them.

"Okay, I understand. After all, it's your money, so I'll still complete the main objective given to me by my employer." The man nodded, then stood up: "Shouldn't we go over there now?"

……

Miyamoto and the other two continued to wait. He checked his phone and found that more than twenty minutes had passed.

"They're not here yet..."

The door was pushed open as soon as the words were spoken.

The person who walked in was Risa Tenbei, followed by a man and a woman. The man was wearing sunglasses, while the woman looked very kind. Risa Tenbei smiled at the three of them.

"Let me introduce you. These two are Mr. Shinichiro Watanabe and Ms. Mai Yoneyama."

The three of them quickly stood up and greeted the two who came in.

"Hello, Mr. Watanabe, Ms. Yoneyama."

"Hello."

"first meet!"

After exchanging greetings, the group sat down again, and then Risa Tenbe spoke.

"This time, Mr. Watanabe will serve as the animation director and will also be in charge of the plot design. Ms. Yoneyama will not only be your character designer, but will also serve as the animation director to oversee this work."

I see. This way, we can save the need for an animation director and a scriptwriter. In addition, Shinichiro Watanabe has a good grasp of the script, and Mai Yoneyama is capable enough as an animation director. It is indeed a good idea.

Miyamoto thought to himself, and couldn't help but look forward to what kind of script Watanabe Shinichiro would come up with.

“Now, I’ll ask you a few questions,” said Risa Amagai, looking at Shinichiro Watanabe.

Shinichiro Watanabe naturally took over the conversation.

What are your dreams?

"Dreams?" Miyamoto was taken aback, not expecting to be asked such a question.
