Erm. The topic and message don't match. January means Winter season. So does it air in January or does it air in Spring season but earlier(March for example)

Sakurako Kimino's answer to Idolmaster, I want to watch to see how it turns out and the possible Shoujo-Ai.

At least performances could be much better than in Idolmaster and AKB0048 if Suntise made them the same as in music videos for Myu's

Is it Spring or Winter? I'm guessing its Winter since its too early to announce Spring anime, but the first post is misleading...

Anyway, sounds good. More Idol stuff is always a good thing.

4 of them have the same face and I can already tell that at least 5 of them have the same bland personality.

There is no Sci-Fi in Love Live, the music videos had none.

Didn't think it was any good looking cause when I hear 'girl idol' I kinda cringe...

However, watching the preview..the music sounds..not half bad. Might give it a try.

Well Idolmaster was a massive hit, not only from BD sales, but also CD sales. Its not surprising to see others trying to replicate its success. It could be another K-On in terms of spawning many clones.

Huh... Usually, there's at least one girl's design I love when it comes to these types of anime, but no one's really stands out here. Sonoda Umi looks kind of nice, but given that girls with similar long blue hair and brown eyes are a dime a dozen, I don't feel like giving the designer(s) too much praise.
At least most of the stage costumes look interesting.

I'm pretty sure I'll be passing on this one though, unless it turns out to be amazing.

But you're a fan of UtaPri, why would you "cringe"?

Anyways, might not watch this.

UtaPri is female composer with male idols. It had almost nothing to do with "girl idols".

The focus lies on the female composer in UtaPri, whereas Love Live will probably focus on the idol aspect. UtaPri also had the added aspect of a reverse harem with an appeal of bishounen. The way male idols appeal to their audience also varies greatly from how female idols appeal to their audience. These factors are among many that can change the patterns and feel of UtaPri when comparing it to an idol anime with a largely female cast such as "Love Live! School Idol Project".

I may have enjoyed Idolm@ster, but I'm not sure if I want to watch this.

Uhh, what does that have to do with The comment being a double standard?
i apologize for any misunderstanding, but i don't remember asking what UtaPri is about as i'm very aware of the contents and who it caters to.

It was a long-winded way of explaining why it isn't a double standard.

I don't think giving the Sypnosis of the anime "explains why it isn't a double standard", Because it is, If i were an Idolm@ster fanboy, which is full of girl idols, then went to a topic about UtaPri and said "i cringe at male idols", that would be a double standard, and it applies if the situation were reversed, so yes, It is a double standard.

I disagree. If what I posted was a synopsis, then it was one of the worst synopses I have ever seen. You're saying if one loves female idols then one must like male idols as well, or else it's a double standard? Okay then.

I'm not going to continue this conversation on this thread though. Feel free to continue explaining in messages, if this conversation is really that important~

No, Liking male idols and not liking female idols is not a double standard, but liking male idols and "cringing" at female idols is a double standard.

If you feel that this conversation isn't important then i wonder why did you bring it up in the first place.

But you brough-... just nevermind.

On second thought if this is developed well I might in fact enjoy this. Since it's been boosted by fan support and might have a higher concentration of school than previous idol anime have had, it might bring something interesting to the table.
