Seems very faithful to the game storyline <3 the art looks stunning as well, the game already has good graphics, glad the anime will at least be on par. :) Hearing Monster Generation in this PV really drives the plot and emotion for me. Can't wait to see everyone moving!!!

The game's story is very good, this show not harem/romance. And Tsumugi is smart, adroit heroine, who is doing her job excellently as a manager. I love her and her personality.

The game is really good with a solid story, well developed characters, and amazing music. If you don't think you want to watch FINE. But don't shit on something you don't understand.

Hello, this is a veteran IDOLiSH7 fan speaking. IDOLiSH7 is by no means a yaoi/reverse harem. It's mainly just an idol-shoujo. There's very little romance in this series, it's not a main aspect, it mainly dives into in-depth character which it does really well at! Tsumugi Takanashi (it's not kotonashi), the girl you see. Is actually quite dependable, she serves as their manager! All she wants is IDOLiSH7 to do really great and have a good career, she has Authority and isn't afraid to use it if necessary. She's just trying her best, please respect her.

Don't say it's garbage when you haven't even touched the series, this series is much more than you probably think. :/


Anyways, I'm really excited to see the anime! I have high hopes based on what I see in the PV! Oh and THE ART OMF IT LOOKS LIKE FUKAGAWA'S ART COMING TO LIFE I LOVE IT LKAJSDL;K

Fair enough.

I'm currently enjoying "Dream Festival! R." That Anime is 100% boys, and it's awesome.

Looking forward to this because I see a dose of pretty boys here. Hopefully TROYCA can do this well because they have been consistent with stuff they had (except for Aldnoah, though production wise they have been consistent for the most part).

Please don't judge the show before watching it. Don't hate on it it baselessly. There are fans/potential fans just trying to enjoy this and it honestly hurts to see all this hate. IDOLiSH7 is by no means your typical "bait" anime (tbh I hate calling any kind of anime "bait"), it has realistic characters who develop amazingly during the course of the story. It's industry drama story is quite mature compared to others in the genre and the rivals aren't insufferable assholes. If troyca does it right, IDOLiSH7 may just become the best of its genre.

btw, no, it's not an UtaPri knock-off, and the Tsumugi (the female protagonist) isn't an empty shell with no character. So please give it a chance :)

The full MV of Trigger's new song brought me to tears. Idolish has come so far, both in terms of their animation and fanbase, it's beautiful. To anyone who wants to hate on this show, thinking it's just garbage, please watch this masterpiece first.



Trigger is my favorite unit (along with Revale, the most gorgeous pair ever) and I can't stand anyone looking down on this franchise without even trying it out. Well... guys hating on games targeted towards women. What's new, really.

Don't talk about this series as if you know anything about it, when there have been so many fans waiting for it to come out ever since the game was released. If you don't like it, just don't say anything, don't rain on our parade.

Guess you haven't properly watched those genre then. Even yaoi anime don't treat their characters as one dimensional sex objects from the trailers I've seen. There may be hentai BL OVA's like that, but regular shows don't.

Shoujo definitely doesn't do that, I can tell you as an avid shoujo reader. Reverse harem is not as ecchi as its male counterpart.

Besides, this hasn't even aired yet and the trailer showed none of what you said, so it's not right to judge it like that.

I play the game!! It's only recently tho.. And I don't understand most of it... But I can roughly grasp the full story and it's beautiful <3
And if the anime properly follows the game story, then it's even better! In fact, idolish7 have some kind of charm that makes me attracted to it somehow... I have watched some of this kind of anime too, but this is the first time I'm very hyped!!!

The anime seems to have a pretty decent animations, so I'll look forward to it! ^^

IDOLiSH7 means a lot to me so I'm very excited to see it getting such beautiful animation, I hope they do the story justice as well!!!

I hope in the future I don't have to sort through Tsumugi hate or hate of other characters. They're all lovely and I feel sad thinking about them being insulted.

TRIGGER isn't in the PV but I love them so much and they're wonderful rivals.

I look forward to the story I love so much coming to life! Even if I'm mot looking forward to the sad parts of the story that I know seeing them animated will make me tear up. I hope people give this show a chance. It's not otome and it's not reverse-harem. It's a story with heart!

Also Gaku is best! (Everyone I know is gonna find this now lol)

not surprised to see guys assuming it's gonna be terrible because it's aimed at girls sighs. but i'm so excited for this to air!! even if you're skeptic or thing it's fujobait or anything like that, please still give it a chance, you won't regret it! it honestly has a really great story, and i'll say that some of the stuff /is/ fujobait, but even those characters are still really complex and well written, it's more just mild fanservice, certainly not as bad as you'd get in a regular harem anime...
i can't wait to see everyone animated for more than a song's length :'D it probably won't, but i hope the show gets to aya i wanna see her animated ;u;

no, it's not. iirc the game was originally marketed as otome, but they dropped that stance real quick. you won't be seeing individual episodes with each boy trying to win tsumugi over.

Money talks loudest and male idol anime (and merch!) sell relatively well, so that's what we'll get. Find some way to fund your favorite genre then, I heard crowdfunding is in.
