Well I mean more than the brush on the shoulder with Haruka, and the quick snap of them in the suite. I mean like their supposed to be an integral part of the episode more than 30 secs that is. I'm excited, hopefully they will have extended makoto, takane, chihaya, hibiki, yayoi screen time, ryuguu komachi can diaf.... Na jk I love them just less.
Well they are, the idols are finally famous so thats a nice change, I hate seeing that board empty, especially when they all aren't like "ne ne producer, daisuki nano" |

Sekiroad-Idols Sing Twice

I just finished episode six. I'll catch up eventually, but I will say this:
At the rate things are going they're going to need a second season to actually show the major changes that happen in the business, such as going solo or the like. While other series choose to develop their characters slowly as things move along, this show is clearly interested in the "day in the limelight" approach. The usual problem with that choice is, the more cast members there are, the less time available for the actual story. And considering that this anime seems to have every intention of utilizing its premise beyond simply bringing cute girls together to do cute things, well, I've got a few expectations of this series to say the least. Overall though there's really nothing I can find wrong with it.

They might not have the characters go solo. If I heard correctly, you could make units of three similar to Ryuuguu Komachi in the game. They might opt for that approach as well.
Regardless, I expect a change in tone now as well. Edit: Oh wow, it does. I'm kinda jealous, since Yayoi's so adorable. |

Midonin's The Two iDOLM@STERs Comparison Diary
Week Thirteen Another week goes by with a major gap in tone between the two series. Only now, it's iM@S that's upping the tension and Xenoglossia takes on a more relaxing pace. Haruka continues to be a beacon of positive reinforcement in either show. And in terms of both episodes, the distance between Azusa and the rest of the group. In Xenoglossia, it's because of her position, where she sometimes has to make tough decisions, being near the top of ladder. In iM@S, it's a more physical distance, because of rain. While Miki leaving for another production company never happened in iM@S, Makoto could be said to be behaving like Miki in Xenoglossia. She's told she can no longer be part of a group she aspires to participate, and defects. Defection means a lot more when giant robots are on the line. So even if Miki lacks a direct Xenoglossia counterpart, her character arc doesn't. |

Oh man... iori as the peach... I lol'd so hard at that, Takane's apple, oh boy I just realized that this show could get really good, like beyond the antics of idoling prior to episode 12. I'm excited with whats to come, although i felt a little whiplash from the turns in the feel of the episodes but then again when you have 13 episodes left and apparently 2 group episodes back to back, a hinted chihaya episode, I can see the need to drive the plot.

Definitely a nice new OP ... many thanks!
Edit: Forgot to mention - finally watched ep 13 today ... enjoyed the ep; nice to see everyone "step up to the plate", esp Miki! 8/10 vote for ep 13 from me. I am continuing to really enjoy the show.

That OP is amazing. The first three or four seconds, I wasn't impressed, and then it gets to all of the idols doing stuff and its so nice and well animated, and then everyone's flying around and dancing and I'm just thinking, "Oh my god, this is great!"
Better than READY!!, I think. |

Now that's awesome, and hints of Project Fairy with Hibiki, Takane and Miki getting their own unit- wait a minute, is that the costume for Kyun! Vampire Girl they're wearing?!?!
Also, that's either Chihaya's brother, or her younger self behind her on the OP. Hoping they cover the rest of her backstory on this second half. ;_;
