LLAS Ch26

Kaoruko, who MC introduces as the original SIF organizer a second before the other idols meet her, gathers together all the school idols of Nijigasaki and says she wants to start a new event. The School Idol Exhibition aka SIE because I ain't typing all that. Anyways it's gonna be 1 idol per school, so it'll be a contest. Kaoruko also suggests everyone do a joint training camp. Also finally told to rest of idols + MC that Kaoruko is Shio's sister.

The location of the training camp is the fucking deserted island we were on before during intermission w/ zombies Aquors.

Ai and Karin reveal they're planning on working together as a subunit. Their subunit's concept is working their competitiveness into a dance essentially since they said they couldn't perform well enough cooperatively, they'll just... aggressively clash but cooperatively? Iunno. Opposites? DiverDiva.

We get a scene where Kaoruko makes Lanzhu help out w/ chores (cooking specifically) or she doesn't eat. Both Lanzhu and Mia prove incompetent at cooking. Luckily Kanata is here to cook.

Emma gathers together Kanata, Kasumin, and Rina so they can form a subunit. Kasumin asks how they connect together. Emma says their concept is they're all fans of idols which... ??? (Like I guess Kasumin, but why not like Setsuna who's an idol otaku). Whatever who cares about this subunit anyways. Something about blending their voices together yadda yadda. QU4RTZ.

Ayumu is talking to MC who's gushing over Karin and Ai as a subunit. Ayumu gets jealous and stomps off to Setsuna and Shizuku. They're both discussing how they think they're both better off doing solo units still when Ayumu begs them to be a subunit please please my GF still isn't paying attention to me. They try to decide wtf they're doing because they're literally the leftovers (crazy how they are and not QU4RTZ, like nobody drafting top idol Setsuna?). Ayumu figures they can be an amusement park, a parade. They start w/ Ayumu's cute, then they get Setsuna's excitement, into Shizuku's story telling. So like... not cooperating at all, just going one at a time. Iunno I think all the concepts are pretty silly because fans just voted for their groups right? Whatever. A ZU NA.

Mia doesn't know how hot chocolate works and we get random english. I hate it. Anyways, Mia gives us some tips on how to write group songs. And by that I mean, she says you know everything you do for single songs, just apply it to the group instead LOL. MC pops off and immediately figures it out afterwards. MC is actually dumb as a rock.

Also apparently Setsuna can't cook to save anyone's life either.
