MASTER ARTIST 3 series CDs

[Virgofall]

Good, Takane doesn't get My Best Friend. >_>
I wonder where we could buy the CDs...

So from the iM@S song list we have...

Haruka: Honey Heartbeat
Hibiki: Shiny Smile
Makoto: It's Show

Miki: Kyun! Vampire Girl
Iori: Nanairo Button
Takane: KisS

Chihaya:
Yukiho:
Mami:

Azusa:
Yayoi:
Ritsuko:
Ami:

EDIT: Wait, they separated the release times for Futamis why? ._. I guess to further the twin division, but...

◎When you buy all three THE IDOLM@STER MASTER ARTIST 3 first batch CDs, you'll be given a remix trio version of "Kimi*Channel (MASTER VERSION)"!

They must really like Kimi*Channel that much, huh? ;

EDIT: Wait, they separated the release times for Futamis why? ._. I guess to further the twin division, but...

I think they've been doing that since MASTER ARTIST 2 and accentuated it with the LIVE THE@TER series by putting them in different units twice. I personally don't mind it that much, since they've been individualized all throughout Second Vision at this point.

[Yukibro]

I might be off here, but I'm starting to sense a pattern. Namely, the leading idols from the Namassuka Special albums are consistently getting songs from those albums. Haruka has Honey Heartbeat, Miki has Kyunpire, and Iori has Nanairo Button. If this stands to be true, then I might be able to get away with Yukiho not getting LMG! Oh, and Yayoi will get Ai Like Hamburger.

Other than that, I'd guess that the second idol gets a song connected to them in some way, while the third idol gets a song they sang in a group. I also wonder how they're handling the distribution for the Kimi*Channel remix, since I guess they'll have a special like that for each batch.

Catch You Catch Me, neat.

[EDIT]
Also, Nostalgia is by AJURIKA? I thought he uses this nickname for his personal project and signs his game-related works as Akitaka Tohyama, so with his name...

I'VE BEEN REQUESTING CAPPUCINO FOR IORI FOR -AGES-!

I'm at work, so I can't google all these songs, but the ones I know seem like awesome choices. I would have done Catch You Catch Me for Iori or Yayoi, but I'm confident in Miki pulling it off.

YES TAKANE IS SOLOING KISS INSTEAD OF MY BEST FRIEND

Takane's cover of Destiny will be NICE. But now I can cross off Catch You Catch Me off my list of songs for idols to sing. (I have a word document with song ideas for requests)

[suzushinayuriko]

I was hoping for Fate of the World for Miki and Kyun! Vampire Girl for Takane, but this is nice too.

Yukiho will probably get Little Match Girl. Not sure about Mami - since she's in the winter group, maybe Happy Christmas or Valentine? Do-Dai, Colorful Days, Massugu, Suki, Issho, Otona no Hajimari, and Agent Yoru o Yuku are also possible for either twin. Chihaya will get Omoide o Arigatou, Fate of the World, Silent Night, Colorful Days, Slapp Happy!!, Suki, Happy Christmas, 9:02pm, Ima Start!, or my song.

If they prove me wrong and throw those limited Kimi wa Melody solos into Mami or Chihaya's albums, I'll be very happy.

[Chihayaa]

Iori got Kaze Tachinu? Definitely happy with that, I loved The Wind Rises.

I still haven't preordered Hibiki's album on CDJapan yet... I want to see the other idols' songs first before making a choice lol. I'm thinking about buying Chihaya, Hibiki, Azusa, Yukiho, Iori, Mami, or all of them =P

EDIT : Just realized they aren't even related with each other oops

I thought the same thing for awhile! that iori was covering the theme to the wind rises but lol guess not!

[Kimiko]

So I now have listened to the full versions of the Solo Songs (Thanks to my friend who lives in japan atm and sent me the songs via email) And I must say, they sound great in full version,.

Just search the user こうちょう on Pixiv. The pictures are basically the first wave wearing clothing associating with one of the cover songs they did.
