iDOLM@STER 2!!

Which means your inital statement was a gross overgeneralization and is thus BS.

You sound offended. You should chill.

[TweenDoriru]

Ohh, Ricchan's Cute & Girly is another step on the good side. Though, the top of it looks a little plain...I think it would look bare without that choker accessory if there isn't anything else there.

Also, yay Futami Twins on the same stage XD I swear that is one of the things I'm looking forward to the most.

So, a "producer" gets on stage with her idols? I really don't get how the game works, but I guess they do what they want, or Ritsuko pulled a fast one and take double wage as a producer and idol, that's a very economical way of thinking

Being an old fan of Touhou, most of the fanbase don't even buy the games.  I would say over 80% of them just pirated the game while the rest of us paid.

You pay for the rest of the fan just like Farmville players

Eh, I personally like 876 idols, their voice are not bad, especially Ryo's (which is kinda eerie how a guy can have a voice like that). I was kinda hoping they'd make a return somehow and somewhere. Good materials wasted on bad package.

Thats EXACTLY what I was thinking

Well, he is voiced by a girl...

On the topic of the male idols, I mean, what are any valids reasons for getting rid of them? i hear alot are worried about the guys tkaing our idols, but lets remember, IM@S is not a dating sim, we wont have rivals for our idols affection! Dating sims are what IM@S is called by those losers who think they know the game. ARE WE FANS WAVERING TO THAT? I frigin' hope not ._.
Also, I feel namco might even make a IM@S game with nothing but males, directed towards the female fanbase of course.

Oh, and doujinshi games can be extremly popular. Look at Higurashi, or Umineko, or Touhou, etc. Sure, alot do pirate the games, but many buy a hell of alot of the murchandise that goes with it. Like it or not, 876 does have a fanbase, a considerable one (I being part of it), and even though it's not as popular as the other IM@S games, imagine a redesiged alternate universe version of those three. With where IM@S 2 is going, it's not impossible.

I honestly didn't hear any '876 idols' in Danketsu 2010. I'm sure that song has all the iM@S female idols that ever existed.

Aww, but Danketsu doesn't have Kotori in it. She was an idol, wasn't she? *shot*

With mostly everything else, the lack of Ai, Ryo, and Eri could be attributed to the fact that they're in a different agency.
While it's unlikely they'll show up in the game at this point short of a cameo, I've seen more shocking things happen XD

[Maka]

Oh look, it's Iori and Azusa's cute and girly outfits.

[Haldo]

Wow. Can't you just feel the energy?

[Mind M@ster]

Wow. Can't you just feel the energy?

Yeah, Haruka has her game face on. But everyone else is all smiles...

[Raestloz]

Oh look, it's Iori and Azusa's cute and girly outfits.

Everyone except Haruka were looking at the camera... where was she looking at?

Also, I have to say, Iori is even better than before that's a refreshing look

Actually, nobody -but- Haruka is looking at the camera XD Haruka's game face ftw.
