The iDOLM@STER Cinderella Girls Anime Discussion

[MetalPredat0r]

And... I have a question: what is unique in Uzuki's personality? Every idol has something that differs her from the rest but Uzuki doesn't...

Ironically, by being normal.

You see, Cinderella Girls is FAR more outlandish than the main series in terms of characters. As in, quite a number of girls are almost cartoony in how they are in terms of personality and overall characterization. Uzuki sticks out from them by being a normal teenage girl. It's pretty much "In a world full of weirdos, being normal is considered being weird".

I do hope that the creators will follow the "Everyone is a main character" pattern...

And... I have a question: what is unique in Uzuki's personality? Every idol has something that differs her from the rest but Uzuki doesn't... In addition I have a feeling that she will get a lot of screen time but (almost) no character development... 

From the wikia it says that shes positive and hardworking. She basically sounds like a generic main character. So yeah, she seems pretty bland. Screen time wise, I hope they split it up as well as they can; I think if any characters get extra screen time it would be Uzuki, Rin, and Mio.

That timeslot, though.

I don't see why that's worth noting, jojo and idolmaster are essentially the same.

[AkuAkane]

Although the contrast is sorta humorous, Jojo's Bizarre Adventure and Idolm@ster are aimed at the same demographic so its not really surprising.

I don't really see why what they were talking about needed an explanation since they were just talking about two characters in a picture being a good duo lol Interesting about the 2ch thing though.

Does anybody know what is on "Cinderella girls animation -first set-"? Is it an OVA?

Does anybody know what is on "Cinderella girls animation -first set-"? Is it an OVA?

The Onegai Cinderella PV from last November and a special digest of the first Cinderella Girls Live Event. It also comes with a CD with a jazz arrangement of Onegai Cinderella and an artbook featuring illustrations of the 30 girls to be featured in the anime. From what I've seen, the artbook looks more worth it than the DVD.

New anime PV has some interesting info:

First of all, the agency is new. The girls work at 346 Productions rather than 765 Productions.

Also (and this might upset some people), not EVERY voiced character will be focused on. All 30 were advertised, but the MAIN cast of the anime will only be about half of that number, making the main cast as big as the 2011 765Pro anime. Hey, at least Minami is in the main cast, so instantly happy! !

Anyone seen this translated yet? Tons of stuff like the 20-hour meetings

Tbh I'm glad it's onlyl 14. Can you imagine an anime focusing on 30+ girls? The original anime still had some girls get little to no focus with 14...

But I'm confused as to why Rika's in the main cast and Mika isn't. Mika's much more popular, for one.

So, 346 is pronounced as 'mishiro'. Not sure what that means. The new opening theme song is called 'Star!!', which is going to be debuted at the 2nd Cinderella Girls Live, PARTY M@GIC!! Live. It's written by Yuriko Mori and composed and arranged by Tanaka Hidekazu (MONACA).

In addition, set for release on January 21st, 2015, THE IDOLM@STER CINDERELLA GIRLS ANIMATION PROJECT 00 ST@RTER BEST showcases songs from all members of CINDERELLA PROJECT along with a bonus track. It'll cost 2,800 yen and the tracklist is as follows:
