iDOLM@STER 2!!

[RhaXiel]

the new choreographys filled me with joy and ecstasy...
also I love takane's costume, I didnt examinate it till I watched her in the video.

[SalemJeanette]

Smoky Thrill, curious dance. I felt the idols were going freestyle in some parts

[Logan]

THE iDOLM@STER 2nd Mix's dance looked a bit funky. I really loved Smoky Thrill's dance, though.

[iDOL15]

The choreography of THE IDOLM@STER 2nd mix reminds me a little of Perfume and Smoky Thrill sounds like the songs 876Pro did. I love it all.

Apologies are in order. The 961Pro website is still taking a bit longer to finish than originally thought. It's just too good.

I guess it's because nobody cares about 961 since Hibiki, Takane, and Miki left for 765Pro.

[Neko-P]

Takane~ I really love her Cute&Girly outfit, and I've gotten used to her Cool&Sexy one, as well. I'm curious what the next outfits will look like.

 ... And I really like Smoky Thrill, to be honest, though it looked like the dance placed more emphasis on the leader than I thought it would... And I was never a big fan of the original song "The Idolmaster", but I think the dance looked nice. ^_^

 ... And again, TAKANE~ That's probably not a healthy attraction to a fictional character...

 Wait a second... I'm the same age as Iori!?! /just noticed XD

Since they left, as far as we can tell, 961 has no idols XD Though didn't someone post a "what if" that entailed Ai, Eri, and Ryo becoming the new 961 idols? Unlikely, but wouldn't that be funny

[animagic4u]

that possible audition screen thing is really really weird. in the original xbox 360 version there was a lot to look at all at once, and now the screen feels naked. It's pretty though. 

I really really really want to see something exciting happen with 961!


Also, Kotori's picture in the new graphics is very cute

[Cael K.]

Smoky Thrill = FROTHING DEMAND

Man, it looks really natural, I like it. Got a nice beat, great dynamic dance.

Idolmaster 2nd Mix, though... seemed kinda still. Not a lot going on. I keep thinking, "Move! You've got an entire stage to do it with!"

Excerpts from the main page:

５人ステージなら「プロデュース中のユニット以外の６人のアイドル」に加え、
「律子Ｐ＆竜宮小町の三人」の中から２人を選抜して共演も可能！

めざすは「国民的アイドルユニット」プロデュース！
三人一組のユニットを結成。全国ランキング駆け上がれ！

For a 5-idol stage, you can select two idols from the six you're not producing, as well as Ritsuko and the three Ryuuguu Komachi idols to perform together!

Aim to produce the nation's most popular idol!
Make a unit from three idols, and tear your way through the ranking charts!

You can only choose three idols to start with, and that's it, no matter what your producer rank is. [snip] you pick two Ryuuguu Komachi idols to join you for a five-person idol team. Unity is strength, right?

... feeling good right now. Really good. ^^

I realize it's not in stone yet, but I think it's looking good.

Oh yeah...

 Hey Cael, now that the site is updated, can you translate what the little excerpts under the character bios say? Specifically Takane's? 83

seconding this request... Specifically Takane's? 83 too....

btw, thanks man for all the translations, I mean google translator makes everything I read have no sense at all...

[Cael K.]

Oh man, both of you? Well alright, I'll do Takane's. ^^

Well, it's a self-introduction, so I've gotta get her character right too. I'll still take a crack at it. Fair warning: this isn't completely literal, since those translations feel very stiff and forced.

A well-mannered, noble princess? Her true colors are all a mystery!

I want to see for myself, what sort of scenery I can see from the heights I've been aspiring toward.

At the moment, I have reached a stand still.
Whatever happens, I wish to know what I can see from on high. However, as shameful as it is to admit, I don't believe anything can come from this by my own. If you would, I'd kindly ask for your assistance.

[RhaXiel]

Thanks a lot man, this will come handy for a certain something im working on.

[TweenDoriru]

For a 5-idol stage, you can select two idols from the six you're not producing, as well as Ritsuko and the three Ryuuguu Komachi idols to perform together!

So...you can add 2 more idols to Ryuuguu Komachi? I wonder if they get the neat costumes, too... Though, if you only get to watch them perform when you lose an audition/festival, that's kind of a bummer :\

http://www.famitsu.com/news/201009/16033451.html

I spy a slightly better picture of Ritsuko's yellow-and-green outfit...still don't like the colors, but do like the design!

[Cael K.]

Eeeh, you can have 2 more idols perform with your unit as guests, but you can take them from Ryuuguu Komachi or the 6 you're not producing. Sorry, maybe I wasn't clear on that.

You know, that logo and Ryuuguu Komachi stamp look really ugly where they are. It's like they don't belong there. And why is it that the amount of empty space at the bottom of the character bios page alternate between no additional space, one additional space, and two additional spaces? I'm wondering exactly how ambitious they're being here, but there's always room for more NPCs...

... but you still gotta have a song for idol NPCs. Right? I was doubting this before, and I still am, but... something just bugs me.

 I'll assist you, Ohime-Sama~ <3 I-I mean, Shijou-san... A-And, only if you want me to... >.<

 Thanks for the translation. ^_^ /Just wanted to hear more from Takane

 Idol NPC's?

 And I would like to see if 4 idols is even possible... Odd as it might look for The World is All One, maybe the quartet version accounted for that or something? I dunno... /just wants to see a four person dance, so sue me T-T
