Posted on June 14, 2018 9:57 am by Offkorn Comment

Wanting to expand into the idol business, Otoharu Takanashi has scouted seven promising young men to form a new group that will be managed by his daughter Tsumugi. Becoming successful will be an uphill battle however as not only do neither she nor the boys have any experience, but the owner behind the current top idol group has taken an unhealthy interest in them as well.

An idol-centric drama whose character interactions occasionally act as comic relief.

MoNSTER SONIC! D’Artagnyan no Idol Sengen

Posted on October 4, 2017 12:26 pm by Offkorn Comment

One night D’Artagnyan stumbles upon Lucifer singing alone in the moonlight and becomes overcome by a feeling she can’t explain. At the urging of her friend she attends a concert held by Lucifer’s former bandmates, now a famous idol group, and it’s there she realizes that she wants to sing as well.
