Like High Score Girl, this one should be a great reminder regarding the behavior of the idol nerds. For High Score Girl, there are notorious moments like someone banging the machine as tantrum throwing whenever they lose in the game at the arcades as well as someone getting into a fight over the game as well. Those same notorious moments can happen anywhere besides the arcade centers or maybe there are more than two notorious moments I've mentioned. However, in this cartoon show that aired in January to March this year, things are quite different. When it comes to idol concerts in Japan, most of the concertgoers sort of do the calls and responses to the songs and there are even those who the glow stick dance known as the Otagei which some man already filed a lawsuit and there was a news like that. I don't know if that man would be called out by the other nerds for that lawsuit. Not to mention that the lawsuit was dismissed by the court at the time.
The protagonist of that show by the name of Eripiyo, is leading the normal life until she discovers the minor idol group and gets herself heavily obsessed with the least popular member that she eventually overspends money on the idol-related merchandises like buying tons of copies of that idol's merchandises. I don't know if other nerds had done the same thing or not like buying tons of copies or not but then, there's another news I knew of in the past in which some nerd bought tons of copies of the same CD as a way to support some idol which is obviously stupid, waste of money and resources, the home hoarding issue and an act of unfairness. How's this unfair? Well, from my assumption, the other fans may want to buy the same CD but of course, they'll buy ONE copy for themselves to listen to.
Today, there are other ways to enjoy the music as technology evolves like listening to music online legally through various music services like Spotify, Beatcamp, etc.
