I can say, I like Tsumugi. She is fun.

Luckily, Shizuka talked to post-movie Shiho. If was pre-movie Shiho, Shizuka would at least exit the locker room depressed.

Seeing that is 39 idols, and just now the first unit debuted. That means season 2 is planned?(hopefully)

Umi going x games mode in the preview for next ep, looks actually freaking epic.

I love Shiho and Shizuka interacting, as happy as I am about Shizuka gaining confidence from it.. I also love when they beef lol.

I wish we got to see more of Minako, but hey they're focused on the main trio + the new duo. god I love Kaori. her singing warmups are probably the best acapella vocals I've ever heard from a character. plenty of shows where someone goes "who's singing so beautifully?" and it's decent. but KAORI IS THE GOAT. lol'd at the outro dialogue "eh? i see a lot of red dots focused on the producer" "HHE?!"

and also the end illust was incredible once again!!! Kaori and Chizuru holding hands on the beach areyou kidding me?? also Tomoka's there. three queens discussing how to maximize their joint slay

this show is peak like I'm so happy

What a banger is Star Impression. I loved this perfomance and seeing again my ML tantou Minako.

I liked a lot Mirai and Tsumugi interaction. They are a funny pair and they really look cute together. Hope to see more in later episodes.

Also, Chupacabra!!!!!!

They all look so cute and cool, I love the design of the costume.


And Minako being the leader of Team1st is a total W, I love her, she is my favorite since the IM@S movie ❤️

The song was so good too!

EP 6

Actually now that i look at it again, the two girls that just joined are both in the op as well.
I wasnt planning on looking at their voice actors but i kinda got spoiled but oh well



Some crazy looking preview for the next time though
So we have 6 eps left and 35 more idols to go, hmm.

Six episodes in, and from our big group photo this time, I've only managed to recognize 17 our of the 39 idols. And even then.
Our main three, the two who just joined, the trysail trio (anna, serika, shiho), matsuri and yuriko, roco and akane for being bombastic, momoko, emily, iku (she's very distinct from the others), arisa, tomoka.
....wait where did julia go? Orz.
Like its kinda overwhelming looking at all 39 of them at the same time, and welp.
Next time though.
Like I know umi is..somehwere, but the fact that I cant point exactly where is a fail itself.

in other news. i think their costume is a bit too flashy/overdone for my taste


Yea... the Red and Blue underarm-stripes felt a bit too much, LOL. The Ribbons is fine, but the arm stripes was a bit distracting... but maybe they did that on purpose? lol

@amlg Because from a distance it adds contrast, else from a distance it is just all white and everything blurrs together.

Also that's how people would see it in real life when the seiyuus wears them and watches them from a distance.

https://idolmaster-official.jp/news/01_9938

The costume is flashy for a reason is because they take into consideration of how it looks like in real life - as the expectation now is that the seiyuu will/must wear the same costume as the idols do in the game whenever possible. If you look back at the old A1-Picture live costumes none of them can translate into real life versions because their design is too simple with very little detail so when you watch in a distance in a real life live situation it's just a solid block of colour (but is good for hand drawing since less detail means less work when animating).

I'm not sure why, but hearing the game OST gives me trauma. This isn't specific to Million Live, but whenever I watch an anime adaptation and it pulls OSTs directly from their game, it just feels weird.

Anyways, smoog is a lowkey dum, Kaori is multitalented, and I enjoyed watching Shiho and Shizuka finally have a scene together. I really want to see them butt heads, as they definitely got a lot of family issues to work through. Misery enjoys company, or something to that effect I suppose. That, and the blues are constantly one-upping each other in suffering. Fun stuff.
