As the title says, would I need to watch the other Idolmaster anime to understand Million Live?

Not at all but you may want try out Theater Days to at least get acquainted with the characters.

You don't need to watch anything but it would probably be best if you at least watch the original (not Xenoglossia) and the movie to get familiar with the original 13 idols and some introductions to Million Live in the movie. Cinderella Girls and SideM are about other agencies which don't really have anything to do with the 765Pro of the original and Million Live so you don't need to watch them if you don't want to.

It's recommended that you watch the original and the movie because they're all 765 productions. CG , side M and the rest are different tho so its fine if you dont watch it.

AND OMG YES ITS FINALLY HAPPENING! 7 years of waiting and finally.

Definitely need to watch the original, no need to watch Cinderella Girl or Xenoglossia. I will assume that it set on 765 Pro, meaning most of the characters from the original series will be there.

@Kiev For me, I just started Idolmaster with U149 while it aired and I enjoyed it so much that last month I watched the OG series, movie and OG Cinderella Girls. Loved all of them. If you're hip on Idol anime and haven't watched Shine Post yet then that's where you need to be. Best animation of 2022 and no CGI.

@Yui_Suzumiya69 Oh but I already have. I cover quite alot of Idol animes, shine post was good, but I think LLSUS was slightly better for me for the year of 2022, Yeah U149 was great, sadly we getting more and more CGI thesedays.
