🌟DRAMATIC STARS BATTLE FES (OCTOBER + NOVEMBER)🌟

Year: 2025

The stories are showcasing drasta preparations for each of the battle fes and their strength as the balanced unit. Both of the stories are also kind of shorter than the fancom stories (this apply to all battle fes stories of the other units too), maybe because we get two stories for each unit this time. So, i decided to just write my impressions of both of the stories in a single post.

OCTOBER

P announced to drasta that them and 7 other units are going to participate in battle fes! Drasta looked so worried because they thought the participating units would be beating up each other until P clarified that's not the case and they will be just battling with doing idol performance lol. So, drasta decided to go teru's house to discuss about the performance preparations while eating his homemade cooking together.

In their discussion, drasta realized that other units have own their own characteristics as their strong selling point in their performances so they tried to think of their own unique charm in performing as idols. Teru suggested sakuraba to wink or blow a kiss to the audiences (thank you teru 😁) since he isn't the type to do those kind of fanservices to fans so he thought fans will go wild if he does those 🤣. Then they mentioned the unit strong points, like their intelligence and adult charm as a whole (which were the themes used during brainpower fancom and shared with sem), while in term of individual abilities, there are sakuraba's singing (vocal), tsubasa's smile (visual), and teru's...gags (dance?) which of course sakuraba disagrees and said that's actually his major weakness and makes his intelligence and adult charm gone instead 😂.

During practice, when drasta were reading posts from their fans on sns cheering for them, i'm really really weak at the scene when sakuraba smiled while expressing that they will but on a performance that'll live up their fans enthusiasm (sorry for being such a simple person 😭). Haijo apparently performed one of drasta's song for their battle fes promotion which makes me 😮 when i read it. I love that drasta sees it as a way for haijo to promote themselves AND other units as well and this made them motivated to create videos of their own as well, the positive atmosphere is so sidem-like to me. There's also a scene that would definitely hits hard for people that had read drasta 10th anni story, imo.

Near the end, the journalists that caused mayhem and harassed basa during drasta fancom story appeared...this time targeting other idols (idk if they're targeting one of the participating units or some random idol since i haven't read other units battle fes stories yet). The female journalist was such a tsundere and doesn't want to admit to drasta that she liked their performance in front of them...

NOVEMBER

Drasta was discussing what makes them unique compared to other units again, as they think they're too well balanced as a unit i̶ ̶d̶o̶n̶'̶t̶ ̶t̶h̶i̶n̶k̶ ̶i̶t̶'̶s̶ ̶a̶ ̶b̶a̶d̶ ̶t̶h̶i̶n̶g̶ ̶t̶h̶o̶u̶g̶h̶. I'm so touched when sakuraba expressed gratitude toward fans that loved their battle fes performances on october (sorry for being such a simple person again 😭). Anyway, thanks to their october battle fes performaces, fans of other units took a liking of drasta too and sent them fan letters. To describe this situation of other units stan started stanning them too, tsubasa used idol wota terms that he apparently heard from minori before, which confused the hell of teru and sakuraba www.

When practicing for their november performances, drasta decided to do medley of all their songs, since they didn't know which song to choose as recommendation for one of their new fans asking for it. Teru overworked himself in practicing for the medley, which end up making sakuraba and tsubasa worried a̶f̶t̶e̶r̶ ̶w̶a̶t̶c̶h̶i̶n̶g̶ ̶t̶h̶e̶ ̶d̶a̶n̶c̶e̶ ̶b̶a̶t̶t̶l̶e̶ ̶o̶f̶ ̶t̶h̶e̶ ̶o̶c̶t̶o̶b̶e̶r̶ ̶p̶e̶r̶f̶o̶r̶m̶a̶n̶c̶e̶s̶,̶ ̶i̶ ̶k̶i̶n̶d̶a̶ ̶u̶n̶d̶e̶r̶s̶t̶a̶n̶d̶ ̶w̶h̶y̶ ̶h̶e̶ ̶f̶e̶e̶l̶ ̶t̶h̶e̶ ̶n̶e̶e̶d̶ ̶t̶o̶ ̶p̶r̶a̶c̶t̶i̶c̶e̶ ̶a̶ ̶l̶o̶t̶ ̶a̶s̶ ̶t̶h̶e̶ ̶d̶a̶n̶c̶e̶ ̶r̶e̶p̶ ̶t̶b̶h̶ ̶t̶h̶e̶ ̶o̶t̶h̶e̶r̶ ̶u̶n̶i̶t̶s̶ ̶d̶a̶n̶c̶e̶ ̶r̶e̶p̶ ̶l̶o̶w̶k̶e̶y̶ ̶c̶r̶a̶c̶k̶e̶d̶. Sakuraba scolded teru for overdoing it and basa pointed out that it usually the other way around. Then they talked a little about how much they have grown as idols, with sakuraba commented that the two are as passionate as ever, but teru and basa pointed ou that he's actually as passionatd as them too though sakuraba of course tried to deny this 😁.
