Love Live is essentially Idolmaster without the Producer and with an all schoolgirl cast. But if you enjoyed Love Live you may like Idolmaster

Like Love Live!, The iDOLM@STER, is a fun and surprisingly moving idol anime filled with diverse and endearing characters and bombastic and catchy music numbers.

Being an "Idol" can be difficult to master the dances and singing. Though, one thing they need to do is this, "Practice makes Perfect." The story is about a group of girls who wanted to become Idol's themselves and gaining attention from the people around them. It's start off as beginners as they need to know the steps of becoming an Idol, until they master it, and perform miraculously in front of the crowd.
Love Live! takes place in a school where the main characters formed an idol of themselves to prevent the school from shutting down. The Idolmaster is a slice of life show

These two anime are similar to each other because they are both about school idols. They both have a huge cast of unique characters. Some characters in Idolmaster are similar to some Love Live characters. There's dancing and singing scenes in both anime. If you liked one series you will probably like the other.

- Both series is about idols.
- Have a good musical presentation.
- Idolmaster is more on a bit of drama
- Love Live is much cheerful kind.
-Both anime include idol groups
-Interesting and lovable characters
-In Love Live the girls form the group to save their school whilst in Idolmaster it goes into the routine of idols trying to get into the pro scene.
If you have seen one you would love the other and if you haven't seen either it wouldn't hurt to watch both.

They both revolve around idols, but whereas Love Live is about school idols, iDOLM@STER deals with professional idols. The girls' career motives are slightly different, but the constant themes of friendship and self-improvement are constant throughout the run of both anime. Oh and there is also waifu bait but this is good haha.
The iDOLM@STER is about become a top idol, same as Love Live! School Idol Project. Both has to become top idol because of certain "conditions". Unlike The iDOLM@STER, Love Live! School Idol Project didn't use Producer, but they start over by themself.
Same idol anime but different type of idol storyline

The main thing that these two shows share is that they are about idols who have to deal with some tremendous task in front of them. Obviously, with both shows being about idols, they are both heavily centered around music. Additionally, both shows try to appeal to a much broader audience by using a slice-of-life approach instead of just simply singing & dancing the entire time. The main difference between the two shows, however, is the artwork (since Love Live! arguably has more "moe" appeal) and that in Love Live! the relationships among the main characters are much more fleshed out. But nonetheless, if you

iDOLM@STER and Love Live! share a lot of similarities. Girls form idol groups and work to better themselves and their respective bands. However, iDOLM@STER has a far more fleshed out plot and rather developed characters. The idol sequences also don't kill your brain like they do in Love Live!. It's the same idea, only better.
