It did cause a frenzy when they first appeared, in the game (actually, when it was announced at that live), but that frenzy wasn't caused purely by them but by BandaiNamco's amusing combo.

According to the Wikipedia page for the game, you can make the producer anywhere from very protective to very perverted.
In Ep 2 we saw protective producer-san. Because perverted with girls that young is X_X. I hope we eventually get to see his perverted side though. |

So episode 2 was pretty much devoted to the photo sessions and how each idol has an unique side that makes her appealing (Makoto is more poplar among females, Yukiho has an innocent beauty and so on...)
Would be nice if all the episodes stick to a different dynamic to keeps thing fresh and interesting. They also should shuffle the screentime a bit because the twins, Yayoi and Iori are getting more minutes than the other girls. |

The first casualty of war of the season for me (aka dropped). The first two episodes just didn't do anything for me. Cute girls doing cute things with a cast that is too large for its own good which unfortunately leads me to not really caring about any of the girls. The music and songs are also too "otaku" for my liking. Also the fact that Iori who is voiced by Kugrie took a lot of focus in episode 2 didn't help much either considering I have little tolerance with the VA.
Was expecting this to be some kind of guilty pleasure for me, but it didn't even fulfill that for me personally unfortunately. Although I wasn't expecting A-1 to do anything near Anohana level last season, I am still left somewhat underwhelmed because I've been having faith in the studio recently. Oh well, there's always next season. |

Also, I kinda feel bad for A-1 when you say that. I feel like the reasons you don't like this anime are independent of the studio doing a good job or not. Do you think they're just doing a bad job with Idolm@ster, and if they were doing a better job you would like it, or do you think that this is a type of show you couldn't like even if the studio did it well? Also, oh god. Yayoi commentating the preview. She's really growing on me for some reason. |

Of course, I told him that I don't see Mayo Chiki as my guilty pleasure because 1, I'm not feeling guilty, and 2, it's actually pretty good

The main reason otaku hate on Jupiter is because they see their inclusion as the reason that you couldn't produce a certain trio in that game. They thought they run out of room... As people who looked at the disc noticed it wasn't anywhere near max capacity and speculated a ps3 version would come our later, and now idolmaster 2 is announced for ps3 as of today.
Also I find it ridiclous they won't name him since it ruins the "you're the producer" thing, how stupid. I don't have blue hair, I don't wear glasses, I don't sound like him... it's already ruined for people who can't seperate games from an anime, why stop halfway. I agree he should be in a support for the majority, just dint make him so bland.... |

I really don't hate this anime version as an IM@S fan since 2007!
Hoping that this anime series will be a success! I'm glad also that the Playstation 3 version will be available on October 27th! Oh wait its Azusa Miura's birthday yesterday! |

Would I show this to other people? No. Would I recommend this to other people? No. Does this stimulate me in any way intellectually? No. Do I watch this for interesting plot? No. Do I watch this for characters with depth? No. Is it a comedy? No. Am I proud to watch this? No. Yep, it's a guilty pleasure. I watch this for no reason other than to enjoy a little light heartedness and perhaps some moe characters. That doesn't define entertainment for me, and I would be damned if it did. Now if this show had any actual themes it explored in an interesting way (Lets see if they do anything with the theme of idols), developed the characters in an interesting way, or just presented something really worth biting into, I'd consider it above a guilty pleasure. Guilty pleasure ain't bad, but it just isn't anything near top level entertainment as far as I am concerned.

The fans don't want Idolmaster turning into a harem fest where the girls fight over the producer, and usually the first indication of that happening is by giving the producer too much personality (good or bad) and presences - just like they do in the manga. People are happy that the producer in the anime is staying the background and out of the way, only giving guidance to the idols where and when he is needed instead of the harem/galge approach of the protagonist poking around helping the girls solve their problems (or fall on their breast or accidentally lift up their skirts) andl making the girls fall head over heals for him. Also if the show goes harem, then there's going to be a heroine/main love story line, which means that the other girls will not get screen time, that's another negative for going with this approach. Reducing the producer to just a needed presence but not a focus is the ideal method in dealing with this problem.

It's one thing to be concerned about turning this show into a Harem, it's another to be paranoid over any male presence.
