i rarely see people talk about this series, so i would like to recommend "IDOL×IDOL STORY!" to those who enjoy yuri and love idols!
this manga follows the story of mimi nagisa, a twenty-two year old former idol.
having grown up loving singing and dancing, mimi pursued her dream of becoming an idol. however, after working as one for a short time, she eventually realized she wasn't cut out for it. abandoning everything, mimi now works as a cashier in a convenience store and secretly attends the lives of her favorite idol in secret.
one day and after a live, mimi decides to get a picture with her oshi. but to her surprise, her favorite idol recognizes mimi as a lead member of an old idol group. mimi runs away, wondering why her favorite, ibuki nanakusa, knew who she was.
mimi ends up bumping into ibuki some time later on her shift. when she reveals to ibuki that she has given up being an idol, ibuki begins to cry and runs away.
that night, mimi has a dream. she recalls that ibuki had been a young fan of hers when she had been active as an idol. does that mean she had been ibuki's oshi at one point? mimi is astonished.
the next day, mimi bumps into ibuki again and they decide to go on a run together. ibuki reveals afterwards that she is leaving her idol group. mimi tries to dissuade her, only for ibuki to say that she isn't quitting being an idol. she wants to attend an audition that will uplift her career as one. she then asks mimi to join her.
mimi is conflicted. can she really become an idol again? she doesn't believe she is talented enough.
she spends some time thinking things over. eventually and after some encouragement from her little sister, mimi leaves to find ibuki and tell her how she feels.
ibuki is quickly located on the street and preparing to sing her final song for a small crowd. mimi joins in and remembers just how happy singing makes her. she then tells a delighted ibuki that she wants to join her in the audition.
together, they are determined to pass the audition and become professional idols. but can they overcome the competition set out before them? mimi must prevail over sixteen other participants in a long elimination-based challenge.
girls will drop out one by one, but also grow closer together. the assortment of personalities and backgrounds are vibrant and exciting.
will mimi and ibuki manage to achieve their dreams and become idols together? read to find out!
"IDOL×IDOL STORY!" is sold on the yuri aisle in manga stores in japan. and given that the mangaka's previous work is "NEW GAME!", i'm confident in saying that this series is not subtext. i am sure there will be a pairing between the main girls that you'll like!
please give "IDOL×IDOL STORY!" a chance! it's super underrated, but such an entertaining and wonderful manga.

It's been a couple years now, so I hope the author is doing okay and is healthy. No one seems to know the reason for the cancelation, but we can only hope that maybe one day, the series may continue on, or maybe even evolve into something else. Whatever may happen, I look forward to reading Akiyama's works ^-^

^^ Alt name for "How Do We Relationship?"
How Do We Relationship? 🤝 Yuri is My Job!
"There are no actual set rules on relationships, and attempting to force your relationship to conform to an idealized version of 'romance' instead of figuring out what works for you and your partner will cause you both great heartache in the long run"

"Our writers are going to beat you to death (emotionally) and will not stop no matter how much you beg. You will grow to enjoy the pain before long..."
