Barbecue Alliance

The Barbecue Alliance is an alliance formed during, created by the remaining members of Pagong, as opposed to the imposing Tagi Alliance.

Attempt to Break the Tagi Alliance
Yutaka Furutani formed the Barbecue Alliance after inviting Osamu Morioka to his reward barbecue, for which the alliance is named. Yutaka stated to Mori that Kishou Yamaoka had told him Ronia Kimura had been eliminated with four votes, followed by Isamu "Shimada", then Mikihiro Yasutake. He proceeded to say that the remaining Pagong members (the two of them, along with Komako Noguchi) could do something about it. Mori agreed and they planned to target rival alliance Tagi Alliance's ringleader Tsutomu Wada.

Blindsided by the Alphabet Voter
Komako had agreed to join, and the ex-Pagong members tried to get Kishou to join, but he refused, sticking with his ABC voting strategy. A Plan B was formed when Midori Harada was having second thoughts of staying with the rival alliance, where the alliance tried to get her vote. Midori ended up not voting with either alliance. Instead, she voted against Kishou. Yutaka, Mori, and Komako voted against Tsutomu. It seemed like he was doomed to go, but Tsutomu's alliance (which includes Shieri Yasude and Kaori Funai) piggybacked on Kishou's voting strategy against Mori, eliminating him in a 4-3-1 vote.

Dissolution
Mori's elimination proved fatal for the alliance, leaving Yutaka and Komako trying to defeat Tagi. Kishou decided to give up his alphabet voting strategy and agreed to join them if Midori joined them as well. Midori decided to side with her original alliance in voting off Komako; Yutaka quickly followed after failing to win immunity.
