Producer-san: An Idol Raising Quest (Idolm@ster/Multi)

[KurobaraIto]

Your name is
[] Producer
[] Producer
[] Producer
[] Producer

And you are the newly appointed producer of the new talent agency office.
[] Write-in the agency name

You have no experience in being a producer, since you were a NEET before you got landed here. After taking care of you for more than twenty years, your parents dragged you outside of your room and told you to go look for a job. Fortunately, you found it here.

As you are looking inside your new office, which is a decent-looking middle-class office, a woman greets you.



"Ah, hello. My name is Miyamori Aoi. I'm your new assistant. Pleased to meet you," she bows.

"Nice to meet you too," you bow back. After that, you two begin settling in. She put her belongings on the table on the opposite of your table.

"So what are we going to do after this?" you ask.

"Eh? You don't know? How do you even got this job?"

"My skill in talking is so good that the higher ups are convinced I am the best man for this job. I don't know what I have to do though," you confess sheepishly. Amazingly instead of being angry, your new assistant, Miyamori, just smiles.

"Did you just say your talking is good? Great. That's all this job is about! You see. Since we're a new agency, we don't have any talent to manage. It's our job to find them and nurture them to be a famous nationwide idol!"

…

…

"So, I have to talk to girls and bring them here to be an idol?"

Miyamori nods.

"I see…"

"To tell you the truth, working in a new agency is not what I expected, but that doesn't mean I won't give my all. Who knows maybe someday we can be as big as 765pro or 346pro," there is stars on Miyamori's face. "The Chief put his trust on us, we cannot disappoint him! Let's start finding a new idol now! Come on!"
After seeing her enthusiasm, you can't help but feel enthusiastic too. Huh, it seems that her enthusiasm is contagious.

"We can start by scouring the popular spot. Let's split up."

QM notes: This is an experiment, so I can only update whenever I can. Try to be as awesome as possible. Oh, and you can't choose girls from idol anime.

No one said they had to be normal people, or that they had to think of themselves as people.

The last one's just there because she has the power of hotpants and thus, passes for a very, masculine and beautiful guy somehow.

Since Kyoko and Karin look like this:

I thought we needed someone that looked a bit more mature to keep the group well rounded. Hence, Kongo.

She may be a pile of nanomachines pretending to be human, but she can pull off that look like none other.

In certain Japanese readings, this would be something like ju-na-ku, 10-7-9.
Sufficient Velocity would translate roughly to jubun'na sokudo, from which we retrieve and shorten to JUbun'NA soKUdo, ju na ku, 1079.

Take note, I hardly know anything about Japanese and this is probably pretty damn mangled.

Huh? Never knew it will be well received. Also I have added the rules. Please ask me anything by quoting whichever of my post so I will get the alert if the rules isn't clear. My use of English isn't perfect, and this is the first time I am running a quest. So don't expect routine updates.

Oooh~ Fun.

Also, my Headcanon always has Kyoko as an Idol. Er, one of the Sakura. But that's neither here nor there.

just in case they get comfortable enough to start using the first name as well.

cause why not...

hmm kongo is always fun
Chisame is my personal fav and actually works in this setting as she already is a hidden net idol
miyu is great (even though the anime of illya is meh), her lack of social understanding along with kongo would drive chisame up the wall.

Click to shrink...

Technically you can. But like most of the character that I don't know, if the character wins, I probably have to ask for the summary of their personality and can't guarantee no out of character moments.


Also for those who vote for Karin, by using her maiden name, you're voting for young!Karin right? not Mom!Karin

They're the player character.

She doesn't have a personality. Like most mute characters. Except she isn't exactly mute.

Spoiler: Djeeta Idol Ver.

Granblue and IdolM@ster go hand-in-hand~ She would fit well with Cinderella Girls characters. That reminds me, I have to do the Tie-in event... -goes back to lurking-

Yup. Young!Karin to synergize her professional brand of Tsun with Kyoko's more hidden one.

Wait, instead of Tsun, isn't Kyouko a Genki? Ah, well...
