Of course the PV comes out while I'm at school with no headphones though lol

Go to the bathroom, borrow earphones, and watch it. That's what *I* did.

I guess it might be because the concept of Cinderella Girls is "Rags to Riches", kinda like the original story of Cinderella. The slipper in the PV might be symbolic or something.
Maka:
I take back my initial hesitance over the trailer, I'm sooooo excited now. What little animation we saw looks so gorgeous and fluid! And I'm actually kind of excited over the fact that it's dealing with the New Gen trio, I feel like their friendship could be quite interesting.
Baseless speculation: I feel like the first episode will deal with Rin and Uzuki's meeting, and Mio will be introduced at the end.
Also is that an Onegai! Cinderella jazz remix I saw mentioned at the very end? If it's anything like the perfect idol jazz remixes I'm super hyped for it.

That's what I thought it was. Giving seiyuu a chance to break into their careers in a well known franchise (the iDOLM@STER as a whole) and eventually become 'Cinderella'.

Adding to this I always thought it was like "we'll give you a ton of girls and whoever are the most popular will succeed". That's why the girls who win the polls are called Cinderella Girls or given voices. They went from being nobody unvoiced newcomers to joining the ranks of voiced idols which will get further focus and development. Of course this also means not everyone will succeed. Or rather everyone gets a basic story in the game itself, but only the selected will continue on. To be honest I didn't like this method much. While it's cool that fans get to pick what they want, every idol will attract fans and those fans will be dissapointed if their idol isn't selected. At least with 765, excluding non-PS3 2 which resulted to the mini routes in 2, every girl was guaranteed a route each game and a certain amount of focus.
Anyways I think this PV is slightly higher quality than the 2011 anime. The designs also look maybe a tad bit closer to the original designs. CG sure is lucky, getting good smile company scales and figmas instantly while the latter took 765 years and now a better looking anime. Also after almost 3 years I get almost everyone hates NG, as they have said many times, but it gets really aggravating when it's complained about over and over when it's not going to change anything. It's like if someone complained every time Haruka Chihaya or Miki got something, or every time pairings like Iori and Yayoi or Makoto and Yukiho happened.

Am I the only person that doesn't MIND New Gen? Like, at all? I liked them in the New Generation manga, so that's what made me like them in general. I dunno, maybe its just my overall tendency to go against the norm or something. :P
