I haven't really watched anime series that features idols as the main focus of the story (Key the Metal Idol, Magical Stage Fancy Lala, Macross Frontier, and the IDOLM@STER) so this wouldn't end up in my To Watch list anytime soon. The closest to having a performing group doing something as close as AKB0048 is Legend of Black Heaven, and the former ain't gonna be as gritty as the latter, I'm sure.

The premise is a bit weird, but I remember someone comparing the plot of AKB0048 to what's going on with Ishihara and censorship of anime. Regardless, I expected a lot more "things" to happen, considering AKB has done some shoots at the level of mochichan's signature.

But I guess character deaths will not be helpful as they would incite the wrath of the fans of those killed.
