| Almost felt like deja vu watching these three episodes but overall, it was fun. Makoto (especially in that dress!) and Takane ftw. Miki is cute of course ^_^ I got to say that the song with Takane, Miki, Makoto, and the others wearing the hood for that music video was pure epic.  7/10 for the end song. I hope for a season 2 someday. |

| LOVED IT!!! Especially the ending song. It was nice seeing another idolmaster episode. I loved the series and kept wanting more to be done. |
| aww~ it's been a while~ although I listened to im@s songs almost every day :p It's still better to have the idols sing for you ^^ will be looking forward to the next 2 episodes :) love Yayoi ζ-'ヮ')ζ |
| There's not enough Yayoi x Iori in it. ( •_•) |
 |
| Awesome episode! But who subbed this? I only found this on streams? |
| Just watched it. Pretty enjoyable episode. Love that ED. @Magito: 765subs subbed it. |
Okay, thanks! Will be getting that asap! I'm hoping after they release the 3 OVAs, a second season announcement will follow. I just love the non-CGI dances. They're gorgeous. Sad to say, this is the only idol anime I know and watched to use non CGI. |
| The OVAs come with the 3 separate games, though. So, technically, they have already been released lol. |

Magito said: I just love the non-CGI dances. They're gorgeous. Sad to say, this is the only idol anime I know and watched to use non CGI. iDOLM@STER was my first idol anime, and so I thought non-CGI choregraphy was plainly "normal", but then I watched other idols animes stuff and was like "Oh my, im@s was actually even greater than it was." No wonder I loved it. Anyway, regarding the Funky Note's OVA, well, I didn't enjoy it as much as I did with the main serie. I actually don't really like this game's girls though, (couldn't even play this game's ver.) so I'm sure that's why. Still, I'm looking forward the other eps. And indeed, a second season announcement would great, but I'm fine with having only one I think. (But seriously, if I knew how those eps were done, I wouldn't have played the games beforehand and spoiled myself the new musics...) |

| Moe-filled ep. lol :D Is this a Blu-ray bundled with the game? or a DVD? or is it really included inside the game itslef? |
| Didn't like this episode >.> Prolly cuz out of the whole group of girls, the kids would be in my least favorite area of the girls. Was screaming for Miki moments >.< Anyways, was i the only ones freaking out about the bunny blinking O.O |

HauntingShock said: Is this a Blu-ray bundled with the game? or a DVD? or is it really included inside the game itslef? They are in the game itself, viewed on the PSP, which makes it slightly more inconvenient to rip, hence it's not widely available yet. Not everyone will buy all 3 versions, so that's a hindrance as well. |

| Lol at the thread title, since all Episode come out all at once, but we don't which will be designated as "episode 1". Just watched all 3 of them, now wishing for another OVA or something. |

| Fun ep. Always great to see the girls again. Now to wait for the next 2 eps to be subbed >_< |

I meant, All 3 of them are released at the same time. So there's no really which one is episode 1,2,3. Apaprently which one is first is decided by which one gets subbed first... meh I don't know why but this 1st "episode" thread talks more about Funky note, while the first that I watch was Groovy tune, and then Honey Sound and lastly Funky note. Funky Note, honestly has the least girls that I like, Only Iori. While Groovy Tune has all the girls I like in one package, which was like a god send for me... lol And then they have the most kick-ass song "eDeN". |

| ^ Should I change the title to "—Episode 1-3 Discussion"? :D |
| In theory the release order is Honey Sound, Funky Note, and Groovy Tune (which makes the one currently available in subs as episode 2), although it's not a strict way in which you have to watch them. That's the ordering listed on the website and the current key visual, and moreover the characters in the PV for "MUSIC♪" are introduced in that order. |
| From the game Wish the PS3 was strong enough for 13 Idols to be on stage on the same time.... lol I'm very positive that the last catalogs for Idolmaster 2 will atleast include some songs from Festa and the costumes. |

| Haururun is <3 Second season please! |
| ^_^ It was cute, I liked the ending a lot (Miki and Haruka being affectionate, mehehe). I was happy to see my Hibikin~ >( But she didn't get nearly enough screen time, it's not fair. |
| "Aiming for the mark takes precision, balance, and patience." ....Screw that, let's shoot the damn thing! |
| Just finished watching Groovy Tune. Yeah, I think there's no specific episode arrangement too :D Changed the thread title~ and that ED theme is starting to get to me >.< |
| I think I still like Funky Note the most. The attempted drama in Groovy Tune was nice, but it just got shoved under the rug. It's also nice to see Chihaya enjoying herself for once. |
| So... Got around to watching the Funky Note OVA.... Hibiki was just merely a prop the whole ep. The way it seems to me, Funky Note has the worst characters with the best songs, Honey sound has decent characters with decent songs, and Groovy Tune has the god-tier characters with the mediocre songs. ;w; Either way, I somewhat enjoyed this episode with Yayoi-chi getting a bit ballsy there for a second. I hope Honey Sound gets subbed next. I demand more of my waifu, Ritsuko<3 |
 |
| I wonder if Miki ever got her reward kiss from her Honey. |
 |
| Watched all three episodes, not sure which ones I liked the most since they were all <3. I wish there was more Idolm@ster.. :( |
| Proud mama and papa of Misha Yuuki* (02-01-2014 - 22-01-2014) Thank you for the wonderful twenty days you gave us. <3 One day we will meet again.. |
| I've watch all of them and they were all good. But my fave would be Groovy Tune. Ara? Do I see signs of jealous from Haruka? Because she pointed out that Producer is staring at Azusa's boobs and seeing Miki getting her reward from him? :) |
| Is it just me or everyone's voices has pitched? e_e |
 |
| Finished all 3. Season 2, when? :O MagicFlier said: Is it just me or everyone's voices has pitched? e_e Not me. I still hear their voices like what they are supposed to be. |
| Enjoyed the episodes 2-3, just cuz I'm not interested in the young kids >.> I enjoy the last song |
| |
| Funky Note is cuteness overload! I love all the music video especially the all cast mv. Glad to see Takane and co. again in animation |
kaimax said: Glorious song tbh. Been listening it a several times today. |

Mau-Kun said: Already watched all three episodes. To be honest, I didn't like the idea of having the same start and the same end in all the episodes, though it has sense when you buy each game separatedly, but not if you download all of them and watch a marathon, I would have skipped the final part or all episodes if MUSIC wasn't a great song. I guess my favorite was Groovy Tune, that Miki-Producer (Honey) shipping someday had to become the drama it ended being this time, I really loved it. So, my Shiny Festa OVA ranking is: 1. Groovy Tune 2. Funky Note 3. Honey Sound You took the words right out of my mouth. Personally,for Honey sound... While I do enjoy the story, I find Honey Sound's melody a bit... I donno, it don't really make sense. Hopefully they try harder on future episodes. The earlier special, "765 Pro to Iu Monogatari" completely kick this OVA's butt to another dimension in term of enjoyment, and said special don't even have 3 music videos. Another concert video please ^_^ |

| I liked each episode but there's one that stood out which had my favorite girls in: Miki, Makoto, Yukiho and Takane. That was so enjoyable to watch! Especially their song, which was also the nicest of all of them. Their voices go so well together! |

| I absolutely loved all 3 episodes, and the ending theme was amazing. THE iDOLM@STER is definitely one of my favorite series of all time. They need to make the 3rd main game already so there can be another season of the anime. |
| The best part were Groovy Tune main song(edeN if I understood right). both the video and the song are really cool. All in all average SOL OVAs. I liked them a bit but not so much as the series. |
 |
| the song from asuza and them in the video, at one point towards the end where they jump. damn near exact thing from the k-on ed no thank you |
Dont bother replying to my posts in forums, dont check them afterwards. |
| such a great series, and these 3 episodes were enjoyable. One thing makes me kind of wonder though: In the episode staring Miki, Makoto, Yukiho and Takane, Yukiho mentions that she is "jealous" somehow? what is she jealous about exactly? and what does Takane mean in her comment about the "moon" and finding love could be in someone near? Anyways, a big fan of Miki!! sad how jealous she was becoming through all those dates then having it get worst at the end, but I'm happy the way it turned out and her getting a "reward" ;) |
| "You and your third dimension" |
| So the story of this takes place in a same time and place, but 3 different perspective view. I thought I finish one episode, but there are different versions of this. Well still glad to see everyone is back but with 3 different groups. Time to wait for the film. |
| They were all okay, surprised to see the beginning and endings for all 3 were the same. The 3rd OVA with Makoto, Yukiho, Miki and Takane was the stand out though. Most enjoyable for sure. Miki so jelleh while the others were on their "dates" Miki's one didn't turn out so well.. Wonder what Yukiho was jealous about exactly though.. Good to see everyone perform (except Otonashi) in the 3 OVAs. |
 |
| I'm not sure what the order is for them, but some brief thoughts for each one: Iori episode - I loved both performances, so creative and fun especially the second one with the musical notes. The tune was so catchy too! Miki episode - The date idea was really cute, especially when it was all 5 of them. Another awesome performance, love how intense Eden was, especially Makoto's scenes. Haruka episode - although this performance was my least favorite, I still love the colorful, upbeat energy that came with it and have always enjoyed Haruka's bright personality as well as Azusa's laid back attitude. It was also really funny when they made subtle hints at Chihaya being jealous of Azusa. A solid 8/10, this OVA gave me 3 more reasons to love iDOLM@STER. |
 |
| Update Shiny Festa will get a disc release in a special Blu-ray edition of the IDOLM@STER movie. |
