The reason this story works is because it really gives us insight beyond the story we were told in Creamy Mami. Ayase's not just a selfish twit; she's someone who worked really hard to get where she is only to be dropped the minute someone "better" comes along. Shingo's a jerk, but he's behaving in the manner his father taught him. Should he attempt to be better? Yes, of course, but he's not mature enough for that. And Yuu/Mami is acting without knowing anything about the adult world, just coasting along on her wish, which, arguably, could make her the selfish one. She's playing a game. This is Ayase's career.

After her ‘putting a child in a cage’ plan goes bust, Megumi opts to maybe rethink her life choices. Unfortunately, a little Mami goes a long way and Megumi is soon tempted by the sinister offer of a paparazzo named Snake Joe, because apparently the name Satan McEvilbum was too subtle.

I have had many a reflection and revelation with this volume and I think the biggest is that coming to this having no familiarly with the Creamy Mami franchise will adversely affect your enjoyment of this series.

I will be reiterating a bunch of points from my first review, but they will be salient because they were driven home here and I am going to start by putting forward a bold declaration about why I don’t find this series enjoyable - every single character sucks.

I am rooting for the girl who put a kid in a cage, that’s where we are. Divorced from her own series, I can tell you here and now that I absolutely despise Mami - an apparent do-nothing who lucks into some magic and uses it to destroy the career of a hardworking star. Nice job.

And the playing field is so ungodly uneven - Megumi’s plots would have nipped this in the bud with any regular person - that there’s a real sadistic streak to how this story dogpiles on Megumi the whole time.

Megumi’s not great. In fact, that’s why I roundabout like her more than anybody else. We see that she’s been working hard the whole time and putting the effort in and she just gets chewed up and spit out by her company. That’s absolutely brutal.

And watching her wrestle with her evil nature and trying to make the right choices and come up short most of the time, well, that’s sometimes what being human can feel like. It’s the most humanizing portrayal of despair and helplessness that I don’t know is supposed to be the point.

Everybody else is made of cardboard, from that bastard of a manager to Snake Joe, who must be from the original because he’s so broad you could use him as siding. His plan is suitably sleazy and it’s a real ‘noooooo’ moment when Megumi decides to go along with it.

But again, magic, what choice does she have? Megumi works ten times harder than Mami and has nothing to show for it. There’s no reason she shouldn’t strike a Faustian bargain at this point (and she does back away when it turns out that Snake Joe is even worse than he appeared to be, which is saying something).

Everything here just makes me feel bad for Megumi. As character rehab for a series villain, that’s good, but as entertainment it’s coming up a bit short because watching somebody fail constantly and get her comeuppance for just trying to do her job is aggravating.

2 stars. I recognize the goals here and as a companion piece to its source material I bet this is great - if that is you, I would nudge it up to 3 at a minimum. As a piece of fiction on its own, however, I don’t know if my blood pressure could take another volume.

Me está gustando muchísimo esta revisión de la serie de Creamy Mami con Megumi como absoluta protagonista, con sus luces y sus sombras. Al conocer el planteamiento, podría parecer algo difícil empatizar con quien siempre intentó poner la zancadilla a la idol de la serie original, pero este manga consigue que la comprendas e incluso, a veces, que quieras que Megumi consiga su objetivo.

Algo que me llamó mucho la atención del anterior número es el esfuerzo con el que construye su carrera, y en este segundo tomo podemos ver, además, cómo empezó ese camino hacia la fama.

Desde luego, el productor se merece todas las hostias que le pega ella, jajaja... pero también es curioso ver cómo la apoyaba al principio de su carrera. Me intriga mucho ver cómo va a seguir esta relación a tres bandas entre mentor, pupila antigua y pupila nueva...

Está bien, peeeero... me parece bastante sosito. Ahora mismo pienso que no estaría mal seguir leyendo, pero tampoco pasa nada si lo dejó aquí. Serán 7 tomos ocupando espacio en mi estantería y con todo de lo que me he tenido que desprender por falta de espacio,hay otras historias de las que disfruto más... Si fuera en digital y más barato, seguiría.

Continua la rivalità di Megumi nei confronti di Creamy, tanto da allearsi con Joe Snake, un reporter disposto a tutto, pur di scoprire gli scheletri negli armadi delle celebrità. Parte poi la parte interessante del volume, un lungo flashback di quando Shingo incontra per la prima volta Megumi, molto diversa rispetto al presente, che cerca di vincere un concorso per idol. La caratterizzazione di Megumi è sempre ben fatta, rivelandone uno spessore che va al di là della semplice gelosia o rivalità nei confronti della nuova arrivata, i fatti raccontati dimostrano la forza e la determinazione che la spingono e la motivano.

Indéniablement, je trouve les thématiques abordées plus adultes, et bien plus abouties. De fait, Emi Mitsuki nous offre une relecture de l’univers de Creamy réaliste et passionnante. Ses dessins servent magnifiquement cette histoire. Le coup de crayon de Emi Mitsuki me plait beaucoup.

La parte grafica è spettacolare.
La storia è accattivante, per una volta la controparte di Creamy, Megumi, ha la possibilità di farsi conoscere al meglio, rivelando il suo tratto più dolce, oscurato dalla parte della "cattiva" che ha interprato nella serie.
consigliatissimo!

Prima parte sciocchina, seconda più intimista. Mi sta piacendo davvero molto questa nuova interpretazione della storia di Creamy!

I enjoyed this volume a lot more than I did the first one. I was torn on continuing this series even though it's very much my aesthetic/vibe but this volume solidified that I will be picking up the next one. Having insight to Megumi and why she feels the way she does about Mami was my favorite thing to see. There's reason behind her jealously. Overall, I give this a 3.5 stars. Nothing super life changing and extraordinary but still a cute fun quick read.
