Mobile Game 'The iDOLM@STER Million Live!' Gets TV Anime Adaptation
The broadcast of The iDOLM@STER Mirishita 3rd Anniversary!! Challenge Tomorrow! Anniversary Live! on Saturday announced that the popular The iDOLM@STER Million Live! mobile game will receive a TV anime adaption.
The game was published by Bandai Namco Entertainment in February 2013 on Android and in December 2014 on iOS. It was shut down in March 2019 and content and updates were moved to the then new title Theatre Days, which was released in 2017. The 37 new idols who appeared in The iDOLM@STER Million Live! were also featured in the LIVE THE@TER CDs.
Shinya Watada (Gundam Build Divers Re:Rise) will be helming the series at the animation studio Shirogumi and Youichi Katou (Youkai Watch!) will be in charge of the script and series composition.
Bandai Namco Entertainment's The iDOLM@STER is a multimedia franchise that began with an arcade game in 2005. The first anime series in the franchise, iDOLM@STER Xenoglossia, was produced by Sunrise and aired for 26 episodes in 2007. It was followed by more faithful adaptations of the games in the form of TV anime, movies, OVAs, and specials. Notable adaptations include A-1 Pictures' The iDOLM@STER—the franchise's first full-length TV anime adaptation—in 2011 and The iDOLM@STER Side M in 2018.

Watada as director for an Imas show is such an obscure choice. He did work on the Sunrise Idol shows Love Live and Aikatsu though, so it kinda makes sense, but he is obviously more known for his Gundam stuff. He is not a bad director though, so I would assume, that the show is in good hands. CG looks alright, not as akward as say Revisions or Sidonia.

Well, given the large amount of censorship in Russia, my browser has vpn for some cases, but I will still try if you say.

Well, Bandori was my first mobile game of this type and it took me 3-4 months to make full combo in any song on medium difficulty. So, I can’t say whether it is a lot or a little.

LOL Is the word If really that hard to grasp? I said "IF" this anime is going to have only cute lesbian idols I may like it. But my expectations on the other hand can't be much lower. Because I'm not a fan of the idolm@ster franchise

Lol, this is IMAS, there is P-san and most of the girls have at least a friendly affection for him. Do not expect much.
Well, I don’t have any reason to call myself an old Bandori fan, but I’ve already gotten used to this franchise, especially Roselia and HaruHappi. It already seems to me that soon I will use up all the guaranteed opportunities to get stars and I will have to complete each song on hard full combo.

Well, lately I've definitely been more into Bandori than IMAS, but I'm still happy with any franchise news, since CG was my favorite Idol show.

But to be honest
I still miss the 2d hand drawn style of animation.
I really expect to see a new 2d style of live or animation about idolm@ster.
(plz come back Nishigori! /Cries)
