The iDOLM@STER	comment	The iDOLM@STER is the second TV series based on the video game series of the same name. It was produced by A-1 Pictures and aired through the summer and fall of 2011.The anime follows the exploits of an unnamed rookie Producer starting work at 765 Productions, a struggling talent company that manages Idol Singers. He immediately gets thrown in at the deep end by being assigned twelve aspiring idols, each with their own particular talents, personalities and ambitions. It will be a long and tough road to stardom, but by spending time with his charges and bonding with them, the Producer stands the best chance of learning what makes each girl tick and where their strengths truly lie.The series wrapped up in 2013 with a movie, Beyond the Brilliant Future!, which covers them gearing up for their largest performance yet while dealing with newbie backup dancers. A novel was written to bridge the time between the show and the movie.In 2017, a prequel manga set in the anime's continuity started seeing serialization. Ayasake no Koganeiro: THE iDOLM@STER takes a much needed look into the backstories of President Takagi, Kuroi, and Kotori. The manga ran in Comic REX from 2012 to 2016.For a time, the entire series was legally available to watch on Crunchyroll until 2021.For the history of the original game and the franchise, see The iDOLM@STER.For the first anime, an Elseworld Real Robot story largely unrelated to the source material, see Idolmaster: Xenoglossia.For other anime set in the same universe, see THE iDOLM@STER: Cinderella Girls, THE iDOLM@STER: SideM, and The Idolmaster Million Live.

The iDOLM@STER / int_1c445e86	comment	Poor Communication Kills: The Producer to Miki in episode 6 setting the chain of events that almost made her quit for good in episode 12. To elaborate, the only reason why she put any effort into her idol work is because he had offhandedly said she could join Ryuugu Komachi if she kept up with everyone; so when Miki went to Ritsuko and inevitably found out she wouldn't join, she gets mad and walks out. To be fair, he was in the middle of what seemed to be an important phone call, and the fact that Miki kept talking to him despite it, probably didn't help.

As The Producer and Ritsuko converse, one can hear the tipsy Azusa going "Neko neko nyan nyan~ Neko nyan nyan~" in the background. Doesn't that make her Azunyan? It seems to be a song that Azusa likes personally. In the Puchimasu subseries, she can be heard humming the same thing while going for work. "Kitty kitty meow meow~"

The iDOLM@STER / int_26ac510e	comment	Mythology Gag: During the Sleep Cute shot in episode 13, Hibiki, Miki, and Takane are seen sleeping next to each other. In SP (which takes place in the 1ST VISION timeline), they were the members of 961's rival unit Project Fairy. The second OP even lines them up with the "donna rival datte" lyrics of "CHANGE!!". Mujin Gattai Kisaragi. The idols piloting giant robots — where have we heard that before? In episode 26, Ami and Mami remark about how the Producer has gone to America. He shows up shortly after, although he actually does go to America in the Good or True endings of The iDOLM@STER 2. The Producer actually decides to study in America in the movie. The "Chihaya vs. the Karaoke Machine" scene is a reference to an incident in the production of the game. When Asami Imai was recording "Ohayou! Asagohan", she sang it in a more natural/classical style, which the staff didn't think matched the mood of the song. They kept telling her to make it more staccato, and the result led to the Robo-Chihaya meme. Cue this scene, with the machine standing in for the staff. Iori and Makoto tell Yukiho to shut up in episode 10 the same way Haruka and Iori do it on the song "Danketsu". Episode 12: "Your visual stat increased!" "Mako-mako-rin" originated from the drama track of the MASTER LIVE 02 CD. Episode 14 gives a nod to the iM@S spin-off series Petit iDOLM@STER, with Chihyah, Haruka-san, Makochii, and Yayo trinkets.

Miki has "Somy" headphones and the idol track meet has an "Aniprex" banner. Which is weird, since A-1 Pictures and Aniplex are both Sony subsidiaries, meaning they made a Bland Name Product for their own company. Chihaya lives near a Burger Queen. The camera Yoshizawa uses is a Qanon. The billboard announces a Tricster. There's a PSB in the office in episode 17. The "Ramen Nijuurou" featured in Episode 14 is a bland-name twin of the (in)famous Ramen Jirol. Makoto has an advertisement for a Pocari Sweat knockoff, Porari Sweat.

Even the Jupiter trio do not approve. This is seen as a Moral Event Horizon both in-universe (especially for Jupiter) and out, since the previous iterations of Kuroi were at best high-class Jerkasses and never tried emotional warfare like this.

Luckily for them they catch Takane having lunch with an older man, who turns out to be the president of the established music publisher Elder Records. Kuroi planned to spin the encounter into a rumor that Takane had plans to leave 765 for Elder—a rumor that even the 765 girls consider, due to how secretive Takane is most of the time.

The papparazzi he hires to make a scandal out of Takane accidentally discovers Chihaya visiting her brother's grave and encountering her mother, and only takes a picture to have around. While the Takane situation was quickly diffused, this picture gets doubled down on after Kuroi asks about it, resulting in a smear campaign painting Chihaya as a walking remorseless jinx who was solely responsible for Yuu's death, which makes her so traumatized she loses her ability to sing.

While the Producer isn't always able to help, he always goes out of his way to do what he can, from dropping everything in the middle of the night to help look for Yayoi's brother, to taking a potentially fatal fall for Haruka. Most issues are resolved with the assistance of his advice, and when Haruka's attempt to voice her concerns gets interrupted, the Producer does not let her get away with pretending it was nothing. Even the eccentric President manages to use his influence to help with things from time to time, and his journalist friend is invaluable in getting their name out there. Kotori isn't focused on too much, but she runs the office by herself a lot and is clearly important to the team.

They finally called it quits once they learn that Kuroi is trying to sabotage the 765 Pro again. To be fair, the only reason Touma acted the way he did in the first place was because of Kuroi deceiving him and the other two members of Jupiter into thinking that 765 was using underhanded tactics to achieve their popularity, while remaining oblivious to those used by his boss.

Inside that show, we get Mujin Gattai Kisaragi. Episode 26 brought back "Live?! On Sundays", plus a trailer for a mafia flick (a homage to Battles Without Honor and Humanity, of all things). There's another one from episode 26, a romantic movie about a girl finally getting married that starred Azusa. It ended with a happy but tearjerking end, but ironically used "Tonari ni" as the main theme. A handful of fans argued further that this is a shout-out to a semi-famous fanmade video, 3A07, based on some stylistic similarities.

The iDOLM@STER / int_eb9e6184	comment	Stupid Sexy Flanders: The antagonists of Episode 10, the idol group Shinkan Shoujo, has one of its members (Nozomi) fall head over heels for Makoto even though they want to take 765 out of the running for first place.

The iDOLM@STER / int_ee7a60e9	comment	One-Steve Limit: Played almost too close for comfort with Ami and Mami, and lampshaded in the introduction of the movie Majin Gattai Kisaragi. Ami plus Mami equals Amami. (Granted their written names are sufficiently different). And in the game we have Ai and her mother Mai.

The iDOLM@STER / int_f9c3ecc6	comment	Series Fauxnale: Episode 25 would be the last episode in any other story—the girls' major concert goes off without a hitch, the Producer is there to see his idols take off, call-backs abound pepper the speeches of the girls, and important recurring characters get their last cameos in before the end. It wraps up all remaining plot threads from the previous episodes too, but regardless, one more episode came afterwards, followed by a movie and eventually SideM for how Jupiter turned out.

The iDOLM@STER / int_faece9aa	comment	The Power of Friendship: A major theme throughout the show. Best exemplified through Chihaya losing her voice after the Paparazzi incident; with a lot of convincing, Haruka's no-holds-barred support, and the rest of 765 singing with her to maker feel less guilt, Chihaya is able to find her voice again and move forward from her dark past. She even states in a later episode that this incident helped her realize how much she considered 765 family.
