Re: Miki

I don't even understand why people would think she's annoying anyways unless it's her constant clinginess to the Producer, which is sorta exaggerated. Miki provides an interesting contrast to Haruka's ideals as an idol and gives you plenty to think about.

People are weird about a lot of idols. It's just Miki in particular tends to attract a lot of animus.

Somebody pointed out that it could be an empty box with a light at the center and a apllique standing in for the screen.
I think it's suspicious because it matches the dimensions of the Nintendo patent exactly, when presumably even the devkit would differ from their original patent.

i think the problem people had was that she was the focus or a major character of a lot of episodes, apparently because she was the director's favorite

God loving drat I hated that episodes. Kuroi nearly ruined Chihaya's life, constantly hosed over 765 Pro and the 765 Pro Chief is like, "No, Kuroi's actually not a bad guy, just misunderstood."

Like, I don't get how they could say that in an episode where he tried to sabotage Chihaya's comeback by bribing staff members. This coming the episode right after he nearly broke Chihaya mentally.

I don't really have any strong hate or liking for Miki, but if I were forced to choose I would say I liked her. I don't really care for 765's idols as a whole aside from Takane and Azusa.

Now, the Cinderella Girls are another matter entirely.

I think Chihaya got more focus than Miki? Maybe it's a personal thing. Miki and her transformation from a lazy idol to someone with aspirations and ambitions does play a major part of the middle of the series, but Chihaya's arc and Haruka's arcs just feel more prominent.

I've never been to a ramen place that lets you adjust spiciness.

The Japanese curry places do, though.

Oh, and I guess Chihaya is pretty cool too, if only for the fact I am biased in favor of blue-haired characters usually.

One of the biggest problems of iM@S was the lack of focus on certain characters, so I'd like it if CG gave more emphasis on the girls as a group rather than just giving each girl and episode and ignoring most of them later.

A lot.



Basically all the idols in this image are the main cast of the show, but there are frequent appearances in every episode by idols who are not in this cast.

Then you'll like CG a lot because everyone stays more or less prominent. There are a few Idol of the Week kind of episodes, but the cast is integrated much more in CG than in 765's show.

the thing that cg does differently compared to og is that episodes are actually devoted to a whole unit instead of just a single idol, so it can cycle through them a lot more. except for the fact that new gen gets like 6 loving episodes just for being the basic bitches
