>Tenka Momose, a high school freshman that can sing and dance... she's pretty and smart to boot! She's good at everything but love. One day she meets Erian Satou, and was pulled in by her passionate dedication to becoming an idol. This is the story about two young girls chasing after their K-Pop idol dream!!https://x.com/girlcrush_comic/status/1993696495938502819
way to waste one's natural talents
>>284043501Read a few chapters of this. It sucks.
>>284043501Could be very popular with good animation.
>>284043501>more dancing, now with korean idols>more CGI bustin movesOh boy here we go again, at least MC is hot
>>284043501Didn't this have yuri? Or was that the one where the girl had a boyfriend?
>>284043865No.
>>284043865MC gets rejected by a guy from her school. Afterwords, she gets paired with another guy.There's not yuri or even a yuribait for now.
I tried it but Koreen shit is just too cancerous.
The article says TBS and ENISHIYA are leading the production, like they did for Takopi's Original Sin.https://natalie.mu/comic/news/649624
>>284044270any news about key staff members?
>>284044307Nah. Nothing else than this.
>>284044270It's going to be very popular if the takopi guys are the one doing the anime.
>Spokon about kpop bandsI tried desu
>>284044474Takopii worked because the midly subversive bait-and-switch premise + solid executionI don't know if audiences care for this sort of premise. When was the last time a dancing anime became popular?
>>284044620Whatever the last Idol series was?Most of the time, it flopped because of shoddy animation
VERY HETERO SERIES
>>284044782
>>284043865I don't understand this almost bot comments, almost always someone ask "Yuri?" in every irrelevant show
>>284044815
>>284044620>the midly subversive bait-and-switch premiseWhat? If anything the show had 0 subversive
>>284044843It's in reddit as well, The first few comments were " is this yuri"?
>>284044620>MC behaves a rival character>Rival character behaves like the main protagonistThere's your subversion.
This is the rival character
>>284045084
>>284044843The name of the fucking show is "girlcrush." Sounds pretty gay to me.
>>284044782>>284044815A new member to the yuri slayer club
>>284045097>female bakugo>female deku
The MC- like rival character got KWAB in the latest chapter and fails to graduate.
>>284045327sexo
>>284043501I like the manga. The MC would be the typical rival character in most series, and I find it hilarious how she gets into K-pop just to spite the genki heroine. Shame the official translations come out at a snail's pace.
>>284044307It's been an open secret among sakuga enthusiasts that this is Eri Irei's debut as animator. He's a Korean animator that has been working in Japan for a while and is a founding member of Enishiya.
>>284045382She gets in.
Is this the secret wandance ep thread
>>284043501Why Japan can't invade Korea already? I'm so tired of k-shit being everywhere
>>284046062It's very close to current chapter now. About 5 to 8 ch behind.
>>284046140legit? how. Where do you find the latest ch? I thought the manga is at the A B C rank shit. There's further ch?
>>284046163It's a manga serialised in japan and made by s a japanese mangaka
>>284044270Takopi studios is fucking insane. I really wonder if the dance sequence will be fully 2d
>>284046119Is this something I have to be on Twitter or *certain sakuga clique discords to know about?
>>284046241probably some discord group cause i never seen anyone talk about this series on twitter.
>>284046212I know. That make it even worse. Nips love k-shit, especially young women.
>>284046119>as animatoris this suppose to be director?
>>284046119Damn, most of her stuff are cloverworks material. Any chance the show can look like sono bisque?
Wow, pretty convenient that the author got an anime and even got to do character designs for Towa no Yuugure nearly the same time.
>>284046319Yeah, many animators make the jump to directors. Also, it's a guy.
>>284046241The SakugaBlog Discord but the director has been tweeting about this in his Korean account regardless.
>>284046696oof >rikkawhy larp lol?
>OP by Lisa
K-kop is like the rap/hip-hop culture of east Asia, right? That's what it reminds me of and why I have a natural and subconscious hated of it.
>>284046722It's all so tiring
>>284046722>director has been tweeting about this in his Korean accountCan you point to me the tweet? Jiust ignore if it's buried under alot of tweets
>>284043778Nice PS3 game.
>>284046119>>284046696https://x.com/pinuettHe retweeted the announcement news so it must be true
>>284046997Months ago he tweeted his studio was hiring korean and japanese animators to work on his new anime project about korean culture.
The main girl is super hot.
wandance thread doko
>>284047382>>284043501>>284044782IMPOSTER
Here, you can already imagine how she's going to look like in anime form.
>>284047479>>284047504Tenka came first.
>>284047479>>284047504Even the dude looks the same
she used to be cute and funny
>>284046673tbf the character design for Towa no Yuugure is the only decent part, so it makes sense one would lead to another
>>284047711tomboy loli tenka was so cute, she's hot as a stacy, but it's not the same.
>>284047786Both Tenka and Satou look cuter before the makeup.
>>284047436post more funny webms
>>284047885Why did Sato immediatly get into slut fashion after the make over?
I can already tell this is going to be stupid popular if the takopi staff are making it.
I started reading this 2 years ago and now it has an anime.
>>284047948So people could goon at her bellybutton.
>>284046722I check out his twitter and it's like 99% politics. sheesh
>>284048219He's Korean, their country is hyper-politized/divided.
>>284048219That might not turn out so well for him later on if he lacks discretion.
i love the clumsy squad
>Called Girl Crush>Isn't yuri
>>284048389[Good News]
>>284048389>Girl crush>Its actually BOY crushWadafack
>>284043501This is a japanese manga and not manwha? And they explicitly mention kpop instead of jpop? How is this allowed
Tenka is a hetslut.
>>284048573it's about japanese girls that go to korea to become kpop idols. that said, even in korea the mc's love interest is a half-japanese idol boy with a japanese dad and a korean mom.
>>284048625This habit of making sure the mixed race character in a piece of media always has a dad from the author's country is strange to me.
>>284048389They're idols, they crush the competition to reach the top.
>>284048671It's not about mixed race but rather a japanese lead. Something they're more familiar with. In the end, the main readers are gonna be japanese people.
>>284046140The latest raw is at ch 98. Where are you reading this?
>>284049021Line manga is at 120 and then it went into hiatus.
>>284049041oh man, i really wanna read.
>>284048219his korean twitter is pure shitpost. he worked on takopi and still tweeted that he hates the manga for being soap opera shock factor slop.
>>284049163legit?
>>284049163>soap opera shock factor slophe's out of line but he's right.
>read my manga and watch my anime~
>>284049163I feel like you'd get fired over this.
>>284044843Is just retard who can´t enter a conversation or create it with predefined sentences.At the same level of "isn´t she/he 1x years old" and it´s replies.
>>284043501I wonder how they will handle the language thing in the manga. Tenka struggles to properly express herself in Korean at first, and the songs are supposed to sang in Korean, since they're K-pop songs.Will they all be speaking Japanese and just pretend they're speaking Korean when they're not in Japan? Or will this be a bilingual anime?
>>284049432I can see them getting 2 vas for every characters.A talking voice (jp) and a singing voice (gook).
>>284044815>>284044850traitor lookin ass
>girl crush>no girls are put into trash compactors
>>284049212>>284049360he didn't mention it by name, but yes.
>>284049573Sato is in all the merch despite being MIA for like a hundred chapters and even the latest arc sets her up as a big mystery with the other nip girl refusing to talk about her. At this rate she's either dead or will debut as part of a big group from the start.
>>284049493The anime sounds ripe for potential for getting a deal with artists that can sing both in Korean and Japanese. That way you can sell the same song twice.Tower of God did something similar with the anime adaptation. The opening had three different language versions in fact.
>>284049624anon above has read farther chapters than the ones available apparently. It seems she does.
>>284049624If main character trope is anything to go by, Sato will be nepobaby and is the CHOSEN ONE
>>284049721They should make 3 versions too. Full Jp dub. Full Gook dub. And a canon dub where they would speak either in jp or gook given the context.
If this is gookpop how slutty do the dances get, that's all I'm looking forward to.
ThIs would need 24 ep to cover the entire first arc
>>284050062
>>284050224
This short music video sub arc is still the best part of the manga.
>>284050250>>284050224yuri sisters..
>>284044843It is the name. It sounds gay. Like Buddy Daddies.
>>284050468sexo
>>284043501With this name it should have been yuri. Guaranteed flop now.
How does this get anime so fast?
>>284050851>so fastIt started in 2020...
>>284050468I don't think she's cut out to be an idol if that makes her self-conscious.
>>284050892she was just surprised because she thought she was swimming by herself.
>>284050883>2020>only 120 chplease don't tell me this is a hiatus heavy author
>>284051476She took two long hiatuses, one started this year.
>>284043501Why is K-pop shit so popular?
>>284051765KPOP DEMON HUNTERS invented Kpop.
>>284051765How is it not popular? They basically took everything good about the 90's pop music and cranked it up to 11>>catchy, easy-listening songs, lightly flavoured with hip-hop>>glamorous fashion>>dance routines>>the performers are all young, slim, and attractive peopleIt's pretty much everything I remember from the days of S Club 7 and Backstreet Boys, but now there are more pretty girls. Yes, I can see heavily processed through their famed Korean plastic industry. I'm not looking for inner beauty, I just want to look at pretty things.
>>284050563About as misleading as Yuri on Ice. Or more, at least Yuri is spelled ユーリ with the long u and it's the name of 2 main characters. Wtf are those Koreaboo bitches crushing?
>>284043501Art looks nice in the posted pages.>>284043778>CGGod please no.>>284048389My disappointment is immeasurable.
>>284048389Girl Crush is a type of K-pop group concepthttps://aesthetics.fandom.com/wiki/Girl_Crush
>>284051765Are you seriously asking why the distilled combination of western musical aesthetics and Japanese idol culture that's been proven to work for over 30 years is popular?
>>284052991I doubt it will have CG dancing because of the staff involved.
>>284045206 >yuri slayerWhat's this forced Tumblr/Xitter/Reddit bullshit that you've been shitposting for years? Fuck off already, you tryhard retard
>>284055120Oh I forgot to quote this faggot's other post >>284046768
>>284048389>>284050365>>284050810Try it anyways you might like it
>>284052991>>284048389It has some yuri bait but that's about itIf it's not obvious already, it's a shoujo story. It's like Glass Mask, except the protagonist is Ayumi instead of Maya.
>>284043501A thread died for this useless fucking piece of shit?
>>284046278lots of gooks are weebs so its more like an exchangethough I wish we had more shit like Shin Angyo or Frreezing instead of the webtoons nowadays which all suck
>>284057808old korean manwha that looked like manga was better than the longstrips.
>>284043501I am honestly hoping it will be a success so they will adapt to Sua's arc - who's clearly the best girl in the series
>>284058927the "love affair drama" mini-arc had the best resolution for an arc of its kind that i've ever seen.
>>284058927From what I've seen in Twitter she's probably the 2nd most popular character after Tenka (deservedly).
>>284058927>>284059497I thought the 2nd arc was one long arc. The prologue arc was a short one.If the anime was 13 ep, i dunno where they would end it. 24 ep would adapt the entire long arc.
>>284055120>>284055234>>284055350>>284057643Samefag tranny lmao.
>>284060839It could be split cour, but I doubt it will be 1 long 24 episodes show.
>>284061018Yeah, i think split cour is the way to go since its on hiatus hell. I hope the anime pushes the author
>>284048389As a ryona fan, i too am disappointed by the misleading title.
>>284061349Read isshou senkin
Cucked
>>284043501They should make an anime for Han Yoil. It's basically Girl Crush but better. Kpop made by an actual Korean.
>>284062295>Kpop made by an actual KoreanNot manga
>>284045084>sarah goujima
>>284043501You guys don't know this but there are "k pop" groups that are 100% composed of Japanese girls.
>>284062445Are they big?
This manga is really frustrating to read because the MC gets thrown back to the bottom at the start of every arc. Doesn't feel like she's actually making progress.
>>284062533Isn't the mc only good because she's copying other people? It make sense why she suck everytime.
>>284062469They're produced by Korean agencies who are rather infamous for success while being brutal to the talents. Guess. You can ask about them in one of the many kpop generals that pollute this website.
>>284044782>>284044815Is this shit any good? The girl looks hot
>>284062708Its a shoujo manga but its written like a shonen spokon series where the mc behaves like the rival, and the rival behaves like the mc.It has alot of cool characters and the mc is very interesting.
>>284062533For now her tale is about developing a personal style instead of being only having good technique.Once she's done her character will be pretty much done.It fits with her being a shoujo villain as heroine and also allows to rotate the cast a lot. This is her fourth idol team in "two months".
>>she's going to trust her again>>she's going to get backstabbed this timePlease Sua, for god's sake don't
>>284043501>K-popToo whoreish and American influenced for my tastes.
>>284063860Slut
>>284060861>Buckbroken by the T-wordDo antiyurifags really?
>>284046163Seeing Gooks and Gookfags on the internet with my own eyes unironically make me wish that I'm rich enough to buy a nuke
>>284062295>Garbage made by modern KoreansNah
>>284052028>K-Pop>Everything good about 90's pop musicI always know that you Gookshills will spout some bullshit like this
>>28405202890's pop music unironically have way more soul that post Hallyu Waves gookpop
>>284058903Korean products literally went to shit after Halyu Waves for some reaskn
>>284043778>It's a shitty CGIslopOne Punch Man S3 has a new challenger
>>284067241>>284067253Never purported to be a cultured man. I want to consume shallow, pretty things, and Kpop scratches that itch.
>Bumped it again award
thread stalker lmao
>>284046140how are you reading the LINE chapters? I can't access it even with a vpn.
>>284064475Kino antagonist
>>284043501I got a little excited because I saw "Girl Crush" and immediately thought it was a giantess manga or something
>>284068183
>>284068176I dunno why they volumes are based on the raws uploaded on kuragebunch instead of LINE and shit hasnt been updated yet since jan this year
>>284055234>>284045206Interesting club you got there.
>>284063860Well, no girl pursuing a career in K-Pop is a nice girl.
I want to be nice to you gookfags but you basically destroyed what was left of /mu/ with meaningless simping that had everything to do with sexual lust and nothing to do with music>>284067368Kill yourself gookerAt least simp over J-pop idols why don't you
I can't believe I get to use this one so soon. Fresh off the oven.
>>284054341Is she a virgin?
>not yurino point then
>no yurisay less
>>284070187Damn. This whore is still alive?
i like this ship
>>284070837>randomly not translating "arigato gozaimas"Even if they expect the average reader to already know what this means, why would you not translate it?
>>284045206>Antiyurifag Majimafag>>284070187>Antiyurifag Aidor/u/fagThe threads are going to be pure shitfest
>>284070968/u/fags are usually the one ruining every show
We get Korean Aidor/u/ before Aidor/u/xAidor/u/ story.
>>284070468Peaked inside their threads once. Not much going on. Very fast tho
>>284071094>>284071118Forgot to mention that I have a tiny sad penis
>>284071015This. /u/tards are the second coming of kyoanusturds.
>>284071234You gonna watch this Korean Aidor/u/?
>>284070837Are they bilingual in JP and Kr?
>>284071301>>284071015I mean just look at the retarded /u/fag with a trip
>>284071392Who?
If you truly hate yurifags, you'd report the annoying tripfag yurifag
>>284062295That studio that animated Avatar still around?
>>284071313Didn't a Korean fuck your New Year's Eve and get you 30-day banned, in fucking /trash/ of all places?
She's hot and the art is nice and clean but I'm not into K-pop
>>284043501K-niggers already ruined anime circles in the west by filling it with normalfags, now they want to destry the industry too?
>>284043501FUCKING FINALLYif it has wandance quality, I will burn the studio down
>>284046163Cause nip idols look like shit, most of them don't have talents and they are lazy, it's hard to stand their grounds on the same stage with gook idols
>>284046673Huh didnt know that, I might give it a chance then
>>284043501Picked up. Like the art and characters, but k-pop idolshit? Ehhhh…
>>284071118Much like vtumor threads
Why is Korea and Koreaboo shit so 1984 about showing navels? Midriffs with diaper-level highrise pants always hiding it is so fucking stupid looking.
>>284043969>MC gets rejected by a guy from her school. Is this at the very beginning or in the middle of the story?
>>284075462Oh right, I was watching this.
>>284046062It's not surprising at all. What story doesn't have a hateboner for the genki character now?
>>284048389It's about one girl crushing the other girl that she hates.
>>284043501This give me hope that that Reality Show idol manga of New Game author Is someday gonna get an anime
>>284043501Trash
>>284076076Selection Project but less gay.
>>284075488Navels are a shit-tier fetish anyway
>>284045163>>284050563>>284052473This happen in every anime
>>284062348>>284067177But is good
>>284076373Thinking that always covering them is stupid =/= fetish, dumbass.
>>284072552Blonde. So very much a K-Pop Idol.
>>284076644You're clearly an ass-blasted navel gazer
>>284070468You're not the boss of me
>>284070961Random phrases are left untranslated so we as the readers can tell when they're talking in Korean or Japanese.
>>284070961>>284078161unnie is the new senpai
>>284046673>>284047770Oh, the girl from that looked cute in pictures, but not enough to sit through a bunch of obnoxious villains. This looks like it should be more enjoyable.
>>284073768>Cause nip idols look like shit, most of them don't have talentsSo are Gook Idols
>>284070961They're in Korea talking in Korean, it's to show her Japanese slipping. No idea how it was depicted in Japanese, though.
>Unironically praising K-PooHow far this board have fallen?
>>284073768The Korean ones look like cheap whores.
There should be a post-punk anime
>>284083231you'd need anime vas that can play guitar.
>>284076076Girl Crush is for women, the New Game author only work for ronery otakus.
>>284083231Post-punk is dogshit
>>284081439gooker infestation
I hope it's as good as this Kpop kino: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_coJyznTUxI
>>284075526about ch 7 - 10, basically in the prologue arc.
The rumored director has alot of dance sequences in his work history. He did the dance animations for that one pirate vtuber.
The release of this manga is so strange.Vol 1 to 5 has a physical copy but vol 6 to 9 is digital only. Even weirder is that the volume release are following the chapters uploaded to kuragebunch instead of the LINE release which are like 30 chapters ahead
Het bros...
>titled "girl crush">not yuri at all>CGI slopwhat the fuck is the point?
>>284047382No she isn't, she's just naked. There are hundreds of manga with better art and hotter characters.
>>284086327Nah, I agree this art style looks really pretty. Looks kinda like Take, the Pokemon/GQuuuuuuX char designer.
>>284086302All the guys in this kinda suck man.
>>284081439There is no place for racism on /a/
>>284086187L*ne is a publishing company. Their manga arm is there to trap people into their shitty messaging app.
>>284086187It's because the physical volumes didn't become available until around April this year. It looks like this series was a slow starter and didn't reach enough success for he publishers to bank on the print copies until recently
>>284086309lol
>>284088902It was a part of a digital only manga lineup for a teen fashion magazine called Nicola, and it broke out because it was way more popular that the others (we're talking small scale here, tbf). When the rest of the Comic Nicola lineup eventually died they decided to start publishing it as a normal manga. It's even physically serialized in Nicola now.
>>284043501>K-Popnope
>>284047479Akira is so lucky
>>284090625The physical volumes are actually selling well, i remember seeing the circulation numbers for it and was bigger than i thought.>>284090653i dont follow kpop too but the manga is entertaining.
>>284047575Oh, shitAnother unnecessary 3rd wheel JC
>>284090762The dude like the "JC" over the mc
>>284090791He's getting neither
