Better than some of the other episodes. They got to the practice right away without dragging it out. Then, there are the guys hanging out together and I'm really keen on seeing how their future develops.

There's bath fan service but bothing really distracting. 2 more episodes left.
The last few parts of this episode was really intense. Wonder how they will resolve this conflict..

Just like any other idol anime, the nearer the big concert date, the bigger problem arise. I just don't expect it to come from the most boring character.

As expected Kaoru will have the main drama plot, sigh -__- it's like relistening to a broken record for the third time now >_>; No new song either this week but welp at least animation isn't bad and we see Cafe parade <3

The bad: Kaoru is a little bitch and the designated drama magnet. (see also: Chihaya, Honoka)
The good: Amehiko... my love...

"Was that a pun?"
"Nani?"
"Omae wa mou shindeiru" Oh wait that didn't happen xD

Saki Mizushima lol.. Best trap just appeared xD
Also Ranko male Asselin BB II

I think next episode will be the "serious" episode of IM@S
It's always the "cool" member that have problem like this
I guess you can say it's their "reason" xD

2 episodes left :(

Well, it's not an idolm@ster without someone rage-quitting, is it?

I feel like how the background behind the burst handled best compared the former two idolm@ster animes.

Kaoru does something with calculation, that's what fears The Producer for overwork exhaustion. They won't make onsen moment episode for nothing, making Kaoru in a crossroad choosing solo drama path or DS team path if he to make a choice.(?)

Hold my beer. 2 eps last before the big one. And another huge problem at the D-day concert.

I liked this episode a lot more than the last one. Dramatic Stars and S.E.M are the best sub units so it was nice to get some good drama out of them... by the way, does anyone know if we'll get another season of this? I really needed a FRAME episode but they're not even in the series so far....

Good job, Kaoru. Good job...... u_u (And I picked you in the Mobage game as my starter and this is what I get?? It's over Dx )

Nah that episode was good though(yay bath scenes <333 ) and more cameos.

Shouta being the cutest thing at the beginning though, no surprise there. <3 Only two episodes left I don't want it to end. ;__; Please give us another season with the other units. (But I can watch Jupiter for days <333333 )

You have been blessed by sparkly bishie Cherry Blossom <3 You're welcome ^^

Guys, seriously, please stop insulting Kaoru. He's my best friend's husband and she's very upset over this thread, so if you can retract your statements, that would be nice. Thank you.

Gah more drama from the worst character in the show, hopefully they push past this so they can get back to more interesting characters.

it's a shame they're not in this series more but it's still lovely to see them and those few precious seconds of screentime asselin had was perfect <3
