Idolmaster & My views on Unrealistic Standards of Beauty
Heattokun:
So I decided to check out some characters. All the main idols are underweight. Ryo is the only normal weight 876 idol, Kotori is normalweight and the lowest BMI is Anzu Futaba(seconded by Chihaya. I can believe that). Hell, Kanako Mimura is still normalweight.
So...Why is everyone twigs? Really?
I mean, Ritsuko shouldn't weight exactly as she does in Imas 1. In Imas 2 she does less physical work and more desk work. How come her change is...nothing?
I just.
Don't get it.

That's something that's been recurring in anime/Japanese games in general. Girls especially tend to have rather unrealistic proportions. It is noteworthy but, personally, not something that bothers me. It IS odd that Kanako is considered chubby by iM@S standards, yet when taking her measurements into real life context, she'd be the world's greatest supermodel.

To be honest, some of the girl's sizes bothers me, especially Airi's bust size. Her size should at least in the 90s.

Don't get me started on bust sizes. Million Live was the WORST with that. You CANNOT tell me that Umi Kousaka looks bustier than Hibiki and yet is 82 compared to Hibiki's 83. I call shenanigans on that!

I gave up trying to understand bust sizes. Yukiho is 2cm smaller than Hibiki.
