I just got caught up with the series.
I've been enjoying it a lot; I kinda wish I had given it a try much earlier. Still, it is good to be able to take in so many episodes at once... but the flip side of that is not having many more to look forward to (unless they do a second season, if enough material exists for one story-wise).

Oh wow, nice! Image source, please? Want a nab a few for my blog, potentially.
It starts out pretty slow but in the middle you get a nice chunk of drama and buildup. The soundtrack's really fun and it's worth checking out- just don't drop it early and you'll probably end up enjoying it.

Sekiroad-Idols Sing Twice
|
Just watched episode 19.
It looks like this anime just can't decide what it wants to do. Looking at the premise I was expecting a moe' show about singing and performing, but instead it's a moe' show with singing and performing. In the episodes featuring that as its primary attraction iDOLM@STER is at its best, whereas other parts do random things like hosting game shows that are just passable entertainment. I have no problem with watching something that amounts to nothing more than fluff, but this anime frequently goes from watchable and harmless to something that maximizes every bit of its setting and characters to great effect. And because the shifts happen so much I can't help but wonder if A-1 Pictures is doing this on purpose. However the spotlight episode style of development seems to have been more thought out than I gave it credit for. While the standalone focus makes it hard to create any cast interactions and dynamics elsewhere, the way the story's progressed has made its characterization method the only one that can really work anymore. The set-up for Miki's episode, for example, or episodes 18 and 19. But eh, I've now resigned myself to the fact that iDOLM@STER likes to go between being just enjoyable to something awesome.

DAMN IT! TOO MANY VARIABLES! I CANT SEE THE ENDING!! TASUKETE, KEIMA-SENSEEEEEI!!! Next question: do they all have individual voices? For some reason they seem like variations of the main 13 (and perhaps their voices are the same as the idol they are a variant of?)

... sure does put a whole new meaning to 'something for everybody' doesn't it? It's like GOTTA CATCH THEM ALL!!!! Also is it me, or are all their names in those images laid out in Western style? Their names somehow don't make 'sense' if read as Japanese style (surname first - given name last). So I can make a joke about Haruna somehow having a cousin plagued with misfortune and an unlucky right hand...
