Tl of the 5th PV

What have we here...
Hey, you. The one watching this video.
Oui, I meant you.
Do you want my autograph or something?
Your adulation for I, Kuroi, president of 961 Productions is very understandable, but...
I'm afraid I have a job to be doing, so save it for another time.
In exchange, I'll introduce you to my idols, the pride of 961 Productions!
Unlike those nobodies at that worthless agency 765 Productions, my idols shall overwhelm you with their performance!
Now, your advent has come!
Jupiter!

=====================

Uso no kotoba ga furue
Uso no toki wo kizamu
Machi wa yuganda malice

(Kimi wo miushinau... Alice...)

Koe no todokanai meiro koete
Te wo nobasetara
Tsumi to batsu wo subete ukeirete
Ima kimi ni sabakareyou

Machi wa yuganda madness

(Kimi wo miushinau... Guilty...)

Koe no todokanai meiro koete
Te wo nobasetara
Tsumi to batsu wo subete ukeirete
Ima kimi wo sabakite

=====================

The lies just keep on piling up
Until the time we spent together becomes a lie itself
And as this city is warped by it's malice

(I lose sight of you... my Alice...)

Though my voice can't reach across this labyrinth
I'll reach my hand out across it to you
I accept my sins, and the punishment I must face
So I beg you to cast your judgement upon me

And as this city is warped by it's madness...

(I lose sight of you... I'm guilty...)

Though my voice can't reach across this labyrinth
I'll reach my hand out across it to you
I accept your sins as the punishment I must face
And cast my judgement upon you
Edit: Maybe someone can put this on the wiki

[Elixir]

im@s has dudes what the heck.

[RhaXiel]

In my opinion, I prefer dudes rather than traps... I mean, at least they dont play with my mind...

[Scotty]

Traps do not embrace their power over the inferior sex. This is why they do not make good idols.

I have gone over this with a team of scientists, this has been proven.

[TweenDoriru]

Cannot believe I missed this...male idols Amazing, Kuroi!

Though, watching their performance was almost surreal...I still can't believe it. XD I guess the title of Makoto's topic "The closest we're going to get to a male idol 'sides Ryo" can be changed :x

Can't wait to see how this all comes together (your unit, Ritsuko's unit, and the legion of man-idols). NBGI is officially blowing my mind with this stuff.

.....Introduction was trash talk. Was so expecting that. >.<

Well, I have no comment on the male idols (though I admit I wasn't expecting that).

If history would repeat itself from SP to iM@S2, then I can't wait for the story to unfold. Kuroi, you've proven yourself, for now.

... Why would one want the BWH of a male idol?

Same reason, but inverted, as guys would want female idols' BWH. It doesn't mean that your BWH is taken, you have boobs. For guys, mostly and occasionally the case, a larger breast size means broader shoulders and, saying this with a neutral tone, bigger abs.

*sees Kuroi's stats*

............Damn. An almost macho built.

[Aya Kyunik]

I......I.......


I think I actually LIKE the three new guys.
I enjoyed watching them perform and well, didn't mind them.

Overall reaction: "...I'm ok with that"
Kuroi....never ceases to amaze me.

[OverlordIX]

Truth be told, why are Azusa, Ritsuko, Iori and Ami grouped separetly from the rest of the 765 idols? =x

[blake307]

I have to be honest, im not really that fond of the male idols. I kind or prefer female idols in the game over male idols. (Besides Ryo) But I do like the group of Iori, Azusa, and Ami with their new song Smoky Thrill.

[Elixir]

Truth be told, why are Azusa, Ritsuko, Iori and Ami grouped separetly from the rest of the 765 idols? =x

Because they have their own unit. They cannot be produced in im@s2.

[airgeneralpong]

I have to be honest, im not really that fond of the male idols. I kind or prefer female idols in the game over male idols.

Me too, but I see this is a great leap of development in iM@S. With more active dance and male idols, now iM@S has become more competitive to the other bands. I'm personally happy to see that.

[OverlordIX]

Because they have their own unit. They cannot be produced in im@s2.

Wow, now thats quite a bummer.  o.o

[Haldo]

Smoky Thrill is awesome! It's as addictive as it should be I've already listened to it, like, three times!
