I found the latest raw scans of Beauty Pop Stage 2 from poking around online. Credit for the scans goes to:




A direct link to the Ciao section can be found here. Just scroll down to find the titles you want to see. The site follows the magazines' schedules, uploading the scans for about a month before taking them down to replace them with scans from the newest issue (aka: monthly rotation).

Beauty Pop Stage 2, the sequel to Beauty Pop, is currently serialized in the magazine "Ciao" since October 2006. Here's the promo scan:

Volumes 7 and 8 has already been published in Japan, with volume 8 released just last month. Here are the covers:



I managed to get chapters 7-9. Chapter 9 is the latest in Ciao June 2007. I can't get the earlier chapters due to the scanner's request policy (no requests for previous scans). Chapter 7-9 Previews:






Word of warning: I cannot read Japanese. These is my interpretation of what I think is going on. I hope these summaries are helpful. Please comment letting me know if I should continue to do the chapter summaries.

Chapter 7:
The Scissors Project (SP) is now an official team, with logos and matching T-shirts! From the look of things, SP is competing in a relay race where the obstacles follow a beauty salon theme. SP is competing against other hairstyling students (Remember Niida-san anyone?) Hyperactive Kei runs really fast but pauses in deciding which food item to chomp on. Narumi yells at him to hurry up with it. I think Kei picks the correct nail polish right away, shocking everyone nearby. Seki does his thing. Narumi and Kiri are paired together in the three-legged footrace while Kanako and Chisame act as cheerleaders with Chisame fangirling Kiri-sama. Iori has the baton and passes it on to Kiri. Niida-san incites Narumi to blow up as usual and he runs like mad, dragging poor Kiri along by the hand. Another opponent knocks Narumi down, causing Kiri to fall. Narumi shields her from the impact. But in doing so, they accidently kiss! Ochiai has a dark look on his face. Everyone is in shock, especially Narumi. Kiri is like, "what just happened?"

Chapter 8:
Narumi runs off and hides somewhere. I think Kiri states that was her first kiss or something like that, angering Chisame and Ochiai. Now the two of them wants to kill Narumi. ^ ^; Kei and a mad Iori search for Narumi, calling out for him. Narumi huddles to himself, remembering that embarrassing scene. Kiri finds him and sits down next to him, but at a respectable distance. Kiri and Narumi talk. Kiri says something that shocks Narumi. Just when Narumi was about to ask Kiri something, he gets interrupted by Ochiai. Chisame is wiping Kiri's lips (LOL). Narumi gets mad at that sight and gives himself away to everyone else.

Chapter 9:
I love this chapter cover - it's so sweet. Ochiai and Narumi talk, just between the two of them. Ochiai asks Narumi something. Narumi denies. Chisame does a hug-attack from behind, surprising Narumi and giving him hives. (Narumi is allergic to overly zealous girls.) Then Chisame goes off with Kiri and Kanako. Ochiai points out that whenever Kiri is in close proximity to Narumi, he doesn't get that reaction. Ochiai looks off into the distance at the departing Kiri, as he says this. Ochiai tells Narumi to think about it, prompting Narumi to remember the moments when Kiri's face is brightened by her smiles. He blushes and his heart starts beating harder. He is interrupted by a hit in the back by a guy with headphones around his neck.

(His hairstyle and love of music reminds me of Kamio from Prince of Tennis, so lets call him "Kamio" until the English translations are out so that I don't have to type out "headphones guy" every time I mention him.)

Kamio asks Narumi what is he thinking about, and is it about Kiri? Narumi gets really mad. At that, Kamio gets devious and goes after Kiri to hug her and proclaims his affections for her just to annoy the hell out of Narumi, which works really well. Iori cries "No!" while Chisame attempts to get Kamio off of her "prince". Kei surprises Ochiai by coming out of nowhere, and is very happy about something, upsetting Narumi further. Ochiai spots the car owned by Narumi's father close by. Narumi's father has an omnious look on his face as he focus on Kamio.
