Oshi no Ko episode 9 preview hints at Mem-Cho joining B-Komachi
Oshi no Ko episode 9, titled B-Komachi, will most likely pick up from the previous episode. Mem-Cho revealed how she wanted to become an idol in the past. However, after she failed initially, she became a YouTuber. Upon hearing this, Aqua offered Mem-Cho a chance to join Strawberry Productions as part of the renewed B-Komachi idol group.
Since this is a dream offer for Mem-Cho, thus she will most likely join Strawberry Productions in the upcoming episode, and become a part of the renewed B-Komachi. However, as evident from the preview, she has a secret, which will likely be revealed in the upcoming episode. Considering how she believed that it was too late for her to try and become an idol, there remains a good chance that she is older than she looks.
Nevertheless, Strawberry Productions might accept her as she is popular and well-known in the online community, which could help improve the idol group's reach. Moreover, she has no contractual liabilities holding her down. With her addition, B-Komachi could reach an all-new level.
The episode could also focus on Kana Arima. After witnessing Aqua's kiss with Akane, she felt heartbroken; thus, she might try to push Aqua away from her life. As for Aqua, he had arranged for a meeting with Producer Kaburagi Masaya. The producer was going to reveal some of Ai's secrets, including her past and possible love interests.
During this time, the new B-Komachi might work on their idol activities. With Mem-Cho's arrival, there could be more content that they can upload, which is bound to help them grow. However, that might not be enough as they may have to begin working on their songs and music videos.
