lilithespark's manga / #idol(40)

I find the message of this story interesting, the idea that "hard work and effort doesn't betray oneself." It's contradictory in itself as the MC needed those talent books to even debut. He relies on the talent books in order to excel at whatever he does. Reminds me of Deku from MHA where he couldn’t become a hero no matter how he tried as he was quirkless. Nice to think about. Anyway, this comic is pretty good. You have your healthy dose of idol drama, slice of life, teamwork, etc. Idols doing things idols do. The art isn't fantastic, but it's enough for the story. Hope there isn't any romance or anything, but I'm getting serious FL vibes from Arin. *cough* I've read better manhwa about idols. I feel that the talent library idea has a lot of potential, though.

30 ATS why do i torture myself by reading stuff like this…. anyway, i’m rooting for the black haired guy but the green guy looks decent, too. lots of misunderstandings, an overly dense MC. i read this because i like reading about fans of idols, but this isn’t really my cup of tea. won’t be dropping this, though.

This feels like another one of those harem idol BL, but it's pretty interesting. Like how the MC looks to be in a dating sim, where all of the members are potential targets. I like the focus on "debuting," which makes it more fun to watch as the MC grows in fame and as a person. The characters are pretty interesting, but I'm rooting for Taewon personally…

21 ATS Lackluster and boring. I love the idol trope, but even the gay bait is not enough to make me like this. Full of clichés, and the MC is so idiotic that he’s insufferable. I don’t really feel any chemistry between the leads. The characters are generally unlikable. The plot feels like a copy and paste, but it’s not as bad as people say it is. It’s overdone, nothing particularly special about it, but it’s not trash is what I think.

6.3 ATS

kinda reminds me of debut or die. pretty good, though, i like it! i love idol manhwa like this but they’re usually very slow paced.

Pretty good. I’ve read the novel for this, and it’s kind of mid, but I don’t mind a good idol manhwa! Plus, the art is really nice so far. Plot’s kind of lacking.
