Im@s Cinderella Girls Characters

[baruhara]

My favorites are Feifei, Miku, Ranko, Nao, and of course Kirari because she's awesome. Probably forgetting a few, but oh well.eo.

I really want more fanart of them all to appear so I can decide which character design is my favourite and go from there. Shibuya seems to be given a lot of kuudere art, which is currently endearing me to her, but I haven't got a favourites list like with the main canon yet.

If the theory about 「Cinderella Girls」 being a test for new characters to be introduced into a game is right, I hope Shibuya makes it.

Also, I didn't mean for this to turn into a bust size discussion, but that's not to say I'm complaining. The huge size gap in Western and Eastern measurements has always bothered me.

Miki is 85 cm and she's considered big in Idolm@ster... So is that just an inaccuracy on part of the series?

Probably. Here, 85cm is barely anything more than flatchested.

I'd say it's just that Japanese(and probably some other Asian nationalities) girls/women are usually more petite than Caucasian, therefore if you ignore the cup size, there is also how wide a girl's/woman's back is. Since in Idolm@ster most of them I teenagers, well...
Don't worry, if you check other games which give 3 sizes it is pretty normal. And since it did bother me as well a while back I did ponder on the topic (of my broad shoulders ;__;')

You'd have to have a fairly small back for 84cm to be as big as the art suggests. My friend has an average back with breasts around that size, and she's 128cm. It's a huge difference, and I noticed it while looking at AKB48's measurements.

For comparison.

Okay.

Well, keep in mind that there are other factors that determine bust size. There's the breasts, then the person's shoulder length and his/her body framework. I say the latter because on some occasions, people get fat or work out, and this expands their rib cage, effectively raising the size more. (Not to mention working out helps develop that area).

Bust-related: Airi's rack. Had a semi-naughty thought of a theory that innocently (or is it) explains its size.

Shoulder length? The rest of it makes sense, but...

Padding?

Well, shoulder length also determines the size of the chest, so...

Padding? 

You saw her pics, right? I was talking about how they were, um....massaged.....innocently by an older individual (money on her mother) before her teen years. Sadly, I can't put a dot on that theory because I dunno Airi's personality yet.

I think that's considered big considering her age. 
Then again what do I know...*pat pat* ;~;

I always wondered how they make up these measurements anyway.
I mean they have to have some reasoning but then again they can't just go ripping off real idols' measurements, right?

[tsukihime]

Hmmm, that being said Miki looked like a relatively big C-cup to me. In the world full of average B-cups that's relatively big.

Miki would be a B cup based on her bust measurement if I'm not mistaken.
Meh...a girl who knows nothing of bras.

Okay, let's not go further before it becomes awkward... XD;;

Anyway, fanart for now. People seem to like the Anzu-Kirari pairing.




EDIT: .....And here's an age chart for those too dumbfounded by the CG wiki. lol



It's not complete, though I'll probably write one on my own. Probably.

^ There are girls so young? Σ―→【〃´・´д｀･〃】―→ﾟ･:ﾟ*:･｡ﾟ

I'm actually surprised that there are some older idols as well, some being my age... which is a good thing.

Apparently so. I mean, if seiyuu can be that young, why not idols?

Tired of feeling like a lolicon? XD *shot*

Anyway, here's a chart I made, including newer idols. Would be update accordingly and please bear with my commentary.

I guess because of the more physical part of being an idol, such as the photoshoots and things. Since seiyuu-work is behind the scenes and out of the public eye, rather than the idols, who's entire career pretty much revolves around pushing your image and personality to a (predominantly older male) fanbase, it's a little more acceptable.

It would be like a child actress compared to a child pop sensation. 

Even AKB48 and its sister groups stick to above the age of prepubescance. Mostly. The youngest one I know of is Matsui Jurina, and she's 15 now, though I think there are younger ones in NMB48.

Then again, this is fiction. Some disparity is allowed for the sake of creative license.

Edited For: A spelling mistake. And Jurina is 15 now.

With every iDOLM@STER game their target audience grows, I suppose. Now you can be a lolicon but still enjoy some classic Oneesan characters too.

I'm expecting some new idols that are half-cyborg in order to pander to the sci-fi enthusiasts. Cyborg idols aside from Chihaya, that is.

Actually, I would love to see a cyber-idol in Im@s that isn't a Vocaloid. =v=
