Synopsis

An ambitious producer who works for 283 Production aims to guide his idol units to fame and victory at the Wonder Idol Nova Grand Prix (WING)—a prestigious competition for rookie idols. Although he is already in charge of multiple units, a fateful encounter with the skilled songstress Mano Sakuragi leads him to create a new promising group: illumination STARS.

Now an aspiring idol, Mano pursues her dream with the support of her fellow members Hiori Kazano and Meguru Hachimiya. At the same time, the producer seeks to increase the visibility of his other units, aligning with his true goal of helping them grow as professionals and understand what makes them shine the most. Indeed, only those who know themselves have a chance to become the new rising stars of the industry.

Shiny colors, probably the least known of idolmaster but actually the best one with the most fleshed out characters.
Developed as a browser idol sim game and released in 2018. Yet thanks to the community it's one of the few iM@S games to be able to play in english via it's fan patched web version.

The series is a stand alone and doesn't need any knowledge of previous iM@S series and can be a good starting point for the franchise. It takes all the aspects of the game and puts them nicely into motion. As an early fan of shiny, I can tell that it's a faithful ...

Mixed Feelings
Despite my undying love for THE iDOLM@STER, I don't know if I can sugar coat this one.... this show was rough. Its been very disappointing to see the iDOLM@STER anime series become progressively lower and lower in quality. The 765Pro anime is near perfection and I'll always stand by that. But as time went on, the shows became shorter and more rushed and the other branches are just too big to get any actual screen time or character development. And this one was by far the worst offender of that. I was a bit hopeful since this branch is rather small in comparison to the ...

The anime adaptation of Shiny Colors is, to put, a glorified advertisement for their rhythm game spinoff Song for Prism. Except, it's pretty much nothing when it comes to story pacing and progression, their choice of music, and so forth.

The primary gripe of this anime is how they rely heavily on Song for Prism's NOMAKE commus. For each IDOLM@STER anime there is at least a supplementary nomake commu which can be found in respective games (mainly mobile game ones). They are usually extras, adding additonal (and somehow optional) story elements that enhance each main episode's storyline. Shiny Colors? The audacity to make plotlines confusing and ...

The CGI in this is much worse than the CGI in Million Live.
