I'm so delighted that 2 of the 3 outsiders from my top 5 also got MVP of their groups today

#Duy and #Shoya are still in with a chance although it's a fairly slim chance I guess.

I don't know why, but I still feel a tiny glimmer of hope for Pray. He's so adorable I cannot bear to think of him being eliminated.

WHAT THE FUCK #SHOYA GOT MVP AAAAAAAA NO WAY

okay I guess the people do love him and I'll keep voting for him πŸ˜ƒ

#ChuangAsiaS2

Every week I think that #Shoya can't get any more cunty, and every week he proves me wrong.

#ChuangAsiaS2

Looking at the results of the first vote, it confirms my expectation that #HuYetao, #Thi_O and #Dorn have a lock on the top 3 places.

Anyone else currently in the top 35 could still make it into the debut group if they have a couple of great performances and get some love and screen time from the producers.

Pray and #Shoya are outside chances and could still make it. Shoya keeps serving cunt every time and I don't want him to go, but it's possible the Chuang audience isn't yet ready for that level of cuntiness. Pray is cute and smart and now that I think about it, his story reminds me of Xiao Zhan (who also gave up his day job & decided to have a go at being an idol around the same age, 26 I think).

I might be on the verge of shipping Hu Yetao, #Yuchen and #YaoZihao as a triad, so I want Yetao's two boyfies to stay and keep him company of course.

Next week's stages will include covers of "Python" (GOT7) and "Mic Drop" (BTS) and oh nooo "When We Disco" by JYP omg whyyyyyy. Also some other songs that have names that are too widely used for me to be able to figure out who they're covering ("Crush", "Original", "I Dream"), and a Chinese song that I don't know ("Last Fireworks of the Summer Night").

My #ChuangAsiaS2 votes at the moment go to:

1. #HuYetao (prettiest princess)
2. #Thi_O (sunbeam, wonderful singer, makes me smile so wide)
3. #Shoya (fierce dancer who serves cunt) (the other trainees love him but he's mid-rank in the voting)
4. #Dorn (okay it took a few episodes but damn he's convinced me with the way he works the camera)
5. Pray (mostly because he's a cutie who vaguely reminds me of pre-debut Felix) (he needs a more hashtaggable name)
6. #Aguang (successful esports gamer with no idol training but who learns fast and is naturally charming)
7. #GouYi (choreographer and excellent dancer who is overlooked by most and almost certainly won't make it past the first elimination but I keep voting for him anyway)

"Under the Moon Road" has 2 of my faves from the lower ranks (#Shoya and #GouMi). They're both excellent dancers and choreographers, and they're great to watch. I'm glad to see that both of their voting ranks have gone up after this performance.

#Kohi, the sole Korean trainee on the show, is better than I expected. He looked pretty ordinary in the early episodes. I had uncharitable thoughts about him being the only Korean trainee on this show because he got rejected by the equivalent Korean shows. I'm sorry Kohi. I was wrong.

@glitchontwitch my dark horse pick for this group is #Shoya, from Japan (in the white shirt). Great dancer, and from a preview I've seen of this week's episode, he's a waacker too
