Is there any word 'popular' in 'お嬢ちゃんも先生似だしいけるんじゃねーか ?'?


In some subtitles of S02E06 of the anime adaptation of the manga [The
Quintessential
Quintuplets](https://japanese.stackexchange.com/questions/93612/the-
quintessential-quintuplets-
aka-%e4%ba%94%e7%ad%89%e5%88%86%e3%81%ae%e8%8a%b1%e5%ab%81-is-%e5%b1%8a%e3%81%8f%e3%82%93%e3%81%a7%e3%81%99-it-
reaches-a-mondegreen), there's this line by a character named Shimoda, who was
the student of now deceased character named Rena Nakano spoken to a character
named Itsuki Nakano, who is the daughter of Rena Nakano.

The context of this scene is that Shimoda is explaining to Itsuki how
beautiful Itsuki's mom was and how many students were a fan of Itsuki's mom
for both beauty and personality.

> Given how much you resemble her, you're probably popular, too.

that seems to be based on this line which I'm probably transcribing
incorrectly from vol07ch57

> お嬢ちゃんも先生似だしいけるんじゃねーか ?

> [![enter image description
> here](https://i.stack.imgur.com/Cvqb4.png)](https://i.stack.imgur.com/Cvqb4.png)

that seems to translate

> Isn't the young lady like a teacher?

Or less literally

> Young lady, are/[aren't](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tag_question) you
> like Sensei?

**Question** : Is there technically no word
'[popular](https://japanese.stackexchange.com/questions/95135/popular-%E3%83%A2%E3%83%86-vs-%E4%BA%BA%E6%B0%97)'
there (and then 'popular' is probably just used by the subtitle creators to
refer to the scene immediately prior) ?




> お嬢ちゃんも先生似 **だしいけるんじゃねーか？**

For some reason your translation directly connects じゃねーか to 先生似 and ignores
everything in between. し
[here](https://japanese.stackexchange.com/questions/28096/usage-
of-%E3%81%97-particle) is a particle indicating the preceding clause is a
reason, and いける is where the translation takes 'popular'. I can't seem to find
a dictionary entry for it, but it would probably an entry under definition 1
[here](https://dictionary.goo.ne.jp/word/%E3%81%84%E3%81%91%E3%82%8B/). This
いける generally means something like 'to be cool', 'to be good looking', or 'to
work well' out of could meanings that apply to this scene. Also **ん** じゃないか is
often less a tag question and more a statement of relative certainty.
