>>736031867Why not put them in respectable modest clothing? Showing neck and arms is only going to cause a ruckus.
They saw how Uma Musume did and thought, "why not us"?
>>736033108Nah this is just Namco boomers being far too late just like Sega.>Release PSO2 in the west? Nah lets blueball everyone for another 10 years.
>>736033108Hopefully it doesn't gets infested with literal discord troons that don't even play the game moderating the official discord to ban any heterosexual art while encouraging yurishit.Because that would be a huge disaster. Thank god that didn't happen to Uma... right?...
>>736033329why would i care what happens in a shitty discord?
I don't give a fuck about any idolmasters other than the original group
Reminder Harada once said Idolm@ster will never go global due to "SJWs making it impossible" (these were his words not mine)Not surprising this happens shortly after he's gone. Get ready for "global market suitable" changes.
>>736033396If it were just "a shitty random discord" I wouldn't care. But it's the official discord. There's even links in game to join it. Then a normal player joins, says he loves X girl, and gets banned by some hysteric banshee. It's just terrible optics. Since it's integrated into the game I am forced to care a little.
>>736033183sega wasn't late, they intentionally destroyed their game. pso2 was fan translated for 10 years it didn't even need to be released in the west.
>>736033449Just remember then that that does not include Miki, Takane or Hibiki.
>>736033936Sega region locked the game requiring a VPN and banned people using a IP thats not Japanese
>>736033604yep that's 100% getting censoredenjoy your censored gacha slop
>>736031867surely this means that shiny colors is finally getting translated
Can I produce Otonashi though?
>>736033108Uma has been a massive success, I wonder if idolmaster will reach the same heights.
>>736031867Too late. Hololive is taking over the idol world with Hololive Dreams
>>736031867never played an idolmaster gacha before. what is the gameplay like?
>>736031867this is a mistake some of the games are way too old and niggers will seethe at lolidols
>>736033108What's with the dead, mindbroken eyes?
>>736034389>>>/vt/ranny
>>736034209>Sega region locked the game requiring a VPNit probably was the intention all along as pso2 was an "unmaintained" game that ignored errors as much as possible which let the game legacy code last so well, I can see the cloud server operators raising questions as to why so many foreign ips were connecting to their server, either way it was the beginning of the end, they only let westerns in when the game is past its good era>banned people using a IP thats not Japanesethat was blue protocol
>>736034389who?
>>736033801that happens in every official discord so im not sure why you care so much about it
>>736033183far too late just like sega is a silly statement given that sega brought pso2 to the west while bamco never brought blue protocol to the west and let amazon muck around the localization. never forget what they did
>>736034425Iirc Isn't the game very similar to uma? It is a raising Sim after all.
>>736034389no migo, no buy
>>736034703wait really? that sounds really cool. i thought idol master was just rhythym games?
>>736033604He also said that legacy characters would never cost money, Harada is a bitch and not I'm not Itagaki.
>>736031867Ped@m@sturbator simulator is coming to the west? It shan't survive.
>>736034389I'd kiss their avatarsafter cumming on them of course
Who will Debra Wilson and Sungwon Cho voice?
timmy's gonna flip!
>>736033329Unless you intend to physically remove them with guns and explosives, it's not happening. Check your local Round 1 USA to see the tranny levels.Uma has it's own internal customs on porn that are unusual.
>>736035104aaaaaaaaaaaiiiiiiiiiieeeeeeeeeeee my american eyes aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!!!!!
>>736035104This semen demon level of ecchi animation partially killed Berserk's Mangaka. RIP.
>>736034226That's not getting censored because its from a dead game that's not getting released here.
>>736034640He cares because we've seen these crazy motherfuckers screw up shit before. They're a bigger threat than the ultra christfags. >>736034767I honestly can't tell one japanese pop idol from another. Hololive. Idomaster. ときめきアイドル ANd I'm not sure if theyr'e becoming more vocaloid like, or the vocaloids are being more like them.
>>736035293I'd bet my uncles bengoshi pin that there is already a load of shit in the regular games that are going to make the roundeye trannies lose their shit.>>736035246What? He died from cooming?
>>736035354Californian coomers from Discord are the biggest threats to freedom than what they are fighting against; Conservatives and Libertarians who just want their breads and circuses without the constant bullshit of the mentally ill self-inserting retards who require handholding and trigger warnings to make them feel comfortable at every time and if something offends them? You just started a new trans genocide!!!
>>736035419Probably his health got fucked from too much cooming, manga-work being straining already, bad diet and lifestyle habits. Dude died a coomer. He was a full on lolicon and definitely masturbated. This is only news to tourists to the anime side of things.
>>736034379I doubt it. The reason uma musume was such a success was because "lol horse girls". Raising idols isn't as appealing to ironic weebs
>>736034389>Willingly interacting with anything vtumorNo
>>736034526had sex with her ugly bastard producer before her concert
>>736034379No. Uma musume was a smash hit because of the anime and game airing at the same time.
>>736035550Well, being a lolicon and cooming a lot is normalish in japan, especially among mangakan. I thought there might be something about him cooming beyond normal human capacity or getting murdered or attacked.
>>736035740*during
>>736035587Says who? People wanted that idol manager sim where you roleplay as an idol manager in real life like its business tycoon style gameplay to be good but it failed so it didn't get popular. Ironic Weebs enjoy weeb shit ironically.
>>736031867here's what's gonna happen:>one gachaslop game gets localized into english>IP gating and similar anti-gaijin measures are deployed for the japanese version to force gaijin to move to the global version>the english localization is terrible and censors dialogue for being problematic>ironic weebs play it anyways>eventually outfits get censored too>ironic weebs defend it and shutdown all criticism as pedophilia>the global version EOSs because ironic weebs aren't lucrative enough>the anti-gaijin measures added to the japanese version are never removed>the console games are never localized and never have their steam region locks removed>english idolmaster goes back on ice for ~15 years before a retarded dangerhair at bamco US convinces them to try it again with hookers and blackjack
>>736035104What did they mean by this?
>>736035858streamers aren't going to play idol raising sims (says me) and streamers talking about the game was part of umas success
>>736033108Black idols incoming
>>736035973It already had a fanbase outside of the normies due to the anime that was released first tourist.
>>736035916It means Japan loves the US navy THAT much.>>736035903Have you been through this cycle before? All I came up with was discord trannies demanding a "realistic" tranny idol, and then ending up with a Wuk Lamat sitution.
>>736031867Can't wait for western politics to ruin another franchise I likeI fucking wish japs stopped localizing their shit altogether, if you don't have enough brain to learn japanese you just don't deserve to play them
>>736035994Hibiki and Natalia and Layla already exist
>>736036042how is that related to what I just wrote?
>every im@s thread is now going to be about what hypothetical discord trannies might think about it
>>736031867No Makoto no buy, and stop making her so boyish. She's supposed to be a tomboy not a fucking FTM.
>>736036220Its just dramafaggot tourists. They’ll go back to twitter, /uma/, /bag/, or wherever they came from after like a week.
>>736036220As if the threads weren't full of people posting discord and twittershit already.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zkGutORdigg
>>736034379arent the idolmaster gacha games mostly rhythm? i think one reason the umas became popular was the literal horse gambling
>>736036220People have been seething about imaginary trannies on im@s threads for more than a decade now
>>736036553They aren’t imaginary bro, habe you SEEN IM@S twitter?
pedo lolishit pedophiles die
>>736036681Go back to kiwi please
Does anybody have the pic of that one idol game that announced the English release date and EoS in the same tweet?
>>736031867I hate weebs so much it's unreal
>>736036715Kiwifags are perfectly fine with lolifags as long as they're in their political side though...
OG or bust!
>>736036615they're there, but it's extremely rare for me to see because i've been doing a good job strictly sticking to the nip side and that's all it throws at me in my feed. wasn't even trying; just turned out that way
>>736031867Who's this girl?
>>736036816Not true, because Toji got banned recently and he was on their political side.
>>736036862is that a MALE??? I'M TORCHING ALL MY MERCH
>>736036220What the fuck do you mean hypothetical. You have these fuckers attempting to change japanese games right fucking now, and trying to fuck up console rating standards. They've already successfully changed what games are available to us.
>>736031867Can't wait for troonourists to invade and mismanage official discordsOh and more porn
>>736036918Toji was banner for being a fucking nigger
>>736033449>>736036834Based. 765 Allstars are the only worthwhile idols.
>>736036747No. Was it that namco one that went DEI?
>>736036816Kiwifags are only fine if its shotas. Not lolis.
>>736036615You don't even need to go that far. Just look at the general on /vg/.
I'm going to marry Ritsuko
>>736036834>>736036963>>736034187
>>736034379only if they focus on U149
>>736036747I got you bro.
>>736034712*no gura no buyFtfy
>>736033449When Mahjong Soul got a collab anounced the same sentiment went around since everyone who plays mahjong is a boomer who wants to remember the good times a decade ago. Unfortunately we got some random current gen and no one gave a shit.
>>736037384That's the stuff. Thanks.
>>736031867and it will be censored. just like uma, ages or what school grade the girls are in, will be removed. there were unironic retarded faggots in early uma threads who thought all girls were 18+ until anons btfo'd them.
>>73603186710 years too late, the CG anime and CG:SS mobage should have been the push. Im@s is pretty much dead, unless they plan to release a gakum@s anime soon.
>>736036747>>736037462You going to jack off to that?
>>736031867Wow. They're only like 10 years late
>>736037481yeah, CG was huge
>>736037516https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DBzuYNK95sM
>>736037514Already started.
>>736037418>who plays mahjong is a boomer who wants to remember the good times a decade agoThey play on tenhou, not MS.
>>736033108Why did it take almost 20 years? They KNOW it's been popular for that long, they don't need another game to tell them that
>>736037181i only know this girl from the futa doujin
>>736037831Because releasing them in the western world means getting buttfucked by all the drama that entails interacting with that side of the globeThey should just stay in japan, anyone who actually cares about im@s already learned japanese a decade ago anyway
>>736037724People who play mahjong are retarded and need tips, thus everyone plays there, thus we all play there.
>>736031867RIP to another franchise.
>>736037724Tenhou doesn't have cute anime girls
Localizers are going to have a field day with Gakumas
>>736033449This, and the Starlight Stage girls. Too bad their game is dead.
>>736038151Mao is getting a total rewrite to be a trans icon, for sure.
>>736035501Damn those censor-happy californians, that's why every single red state country is trying to blanket ban pornography and enforce age verification, that's the only way to stop californians from trooning people out!!
>>736038310OK riam
>>736038426
>>736038193Bang Dream! was just a much better idol mobile rhythm game.
>>736038483>he actually believes thisBang Dream is for tumblr teenagers, just like Sekai Project. Go back.
>>736031867who gives a shit about idolmaster in 2026they haven't had good music in over a decade, mogged by newer musical franchises featuring anime girls
that worked out better than i thought it would
>>736034767Uma Musume is a clone of the console games but with the small rhythm game portion removed. The newest game, Gakuen Idolmaster, replaces the rhythm game and Uma races with Slay the Spire card battles.
>>736036220kek enjoy your /v/igger menace
>>736037390But she's in?
>>736037384What was the point of launching and killing it at the same time?
>>736039076also want to know
>>736039076their money laundering scheme is being uncovered, release the westernization
>>736031867quick before myrient is going to die, what imas games do i download from there and which one have english translations no im not gonna learn fucking moonrunes
>>736039076Probably some contractual shit.
>>736031867does that include gakumas?
>>736031867>another series to get trannylated and censoredWhy is Japan so stupid and unaware?
>>736040208It's just a twitter account being created. Is the bitch on the right gakumas? She is the only one I don't recognize
>>736031867It already did over a decade ago you filthy secondary, and nobody bought it because it was iOS exclusive and $50 eachFuck you, retarded monkey nigger
>>736033108They don't understand that most umafags don't care about idol stuff and some are even against it.
>>736041138S1 of the anime fell flat on it's face because of this and filtered a lot of the west out of investing in the franchise.
This is really weird and way too late. I also don't expect anything good to come from the localization of the games
What should I start with to get into idolmaster? I just want to watch girls dance and sing.
are we even getting localizations?
>>736034640>100 uohs
You hate berserk if you support this
>>736041360download starlight stage or theater days. those are the rhythm games. plenty of manga and anime too
>>736041485i always liked this meme
>>736040208Saki is on the right so I assume so.>>736041360You can look up songs for anyone you're interested in or just go down the list
even if this is a sign of gakumas global, it probably wont release for like 2+ years. uma musume announced global and it came out like 2 years later
Im only interested in the U149sHag idols a shit
>>736041360Original anime + movieMaybe the other anime about the loli groupignore everything else
>>736040917$50 rhythm game you need to buy three times is degenerate, but let's not forget about how money grubby AC, the 360 games and OG CG were if you want to invest in more than one idol.
>>736033108Post more webms so I can make babecocks.
>>736039945nobody? i thought /v/ had some of the biggest imas loyalists around who could point me in the right direction. all i see in this thread is just mass hysteria over what is presumably some shitty mobile game, i don't give a shit over what uma or yuri trannies think
>eop seething out of nowhere
>>736034389maybe if these fuckers could sing at all.
>>736036407I dont think that you can actually gamble in uma right? (Other than the gacha ofc) youre the trainer and have to actively manage the career of the uma and what she learns, but i dont think you get to actually bet.
>>736031867It took them way too long enough.
>>736042419I think he means the actual horse racing since that's huge in Japan
how many gazillions of dollars do you think they missed out on?
>>736042541
>>736031867kekaroo enjoy interacting with deranged troons
>>736034389>half the EN cast left already
iku nakadashi
>>736042820The blue woman too?
>>736042625I genuinely don't know how popular the non Gakumas games would be in the west. I just hope this doesn't lead to butchered trannylations of the games. It's annoying enough having to deal with them already without the EOP crowd getting in
>>736039076They already put the money into it but by the time it was actually ready to roll out the Japanese version was already on the way out because it was so extremely bad so they just finished the launch because why the fuck not at that point
>>736042095Only the SP games on PSP are in English last I checked
Is Gakumas good if you like Uma raising
I'm going to uoh even harder as a means to gatekeep people.
>>736042262I thought this was a pic of Saint Seiya for a moment
>>736035903So basically the Super Robot Wars global release schedule, except with ecchi this time?
>>736043436GK is basically just Uma but better. Like, the current Uma phase over here forgets that Uma came out half a decade ago in reality and that the gacha overseas have just developed a lot since then.
>>736042269>First vtuber on the first takehttps://youtu.be/AAsRtnbDs-0>Has worked with Ado and Yoasobihttps://youtu.be/AA_h0pZkiSc>So successful she started her own agencyhttps://youtu.be/DiTbgJ0wRDc>Has a side project with one of the best music producers in Japanhttps://youtu.be/fT4qgGlEDjU>Performed with AKB48 as center (years after they rejected her)https://youtu.be/n5Qw-vQ-fUwAnd that's just Suisei, Hololive has many great singers>>736042820They said many graduated members will come back for Dreams
COMPLETELY unrelated but is it that CAVE Touhou gacha still going?
Uh oh holomelty.
>>736043892If you meant Touhou Gensou Eclipse, that is already out. It has been two years already. If there's another 2hu gacha made by CAVE then I don't know anything about it.
>>736043418better than nothing, i'll look into itthanks
>>736044048I'm not asking if it's out I'm asking if it EOS'd or if it's still going.Judging by your reply I guess it's still going.Cool.
English Gakuen Idolmaster
I was too lazy to learn nip for it, i really dont care
>>736044145Oh yeah still going, same with Lost Word. Too much grinding.
>>736043436Gakumas is basically if Uma launched with all five years of QoL updates from the start. Only issue I have from the outset is that events seem to have very old school gacha tier based rewards which as a new player basically means you get nothing and you will like itt. started playing Gakumas last month
>>736031867A decade or two late, innit? People ITT saying that this is a kneejerk reaction to Uma's popularity are probably right.
>>736044404>Too much grinding.Ain't that the truth. It got so overwhelming. Every run took like 40 minutes too. Genuinely have no idea how people have the patience for that.
>>736031867If you guys were smart you'd start begging for menial positions like official discord moderator or community manager. Faggots and trannies power grab the moment an opportunity presents itself
>>736033604ARISU TACHIBANAUOOOOOOOOOOHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!PEROPEROPEROPEROPEROPEROPEROPEROPEROPEROPEROPEROPEROPEROPEROPEROPEROPEROPEROPEROPEROPEROPEROPERO
>gakufags
>765fossils
>>736044493It was 200 time worse without the x2/x4 speed at the start, fucking imagine grind the same event stage for 2 hours straight. Still even much worse now due to powercreep stuff but that's gacha for you.
>>736039945All for one on PS3 has a 100% complete English translation, one of the PSP games got a complete translation recently since only one of the routes was translated.
>>736044643What's wrong with gaku?
Bamco actually thinks Uma got so popular in the west because of the idolshit. Now they think Im@s can draw dimes like that.Are they dumber than SE?
>>736045709Bamco is historically a pretty smart company that doesn't gamble or take risks. More likely than actually planning to expand over here, the English account is just a way for them to gauge interest for longer term plans. The company doesn't do fucking anything unless they can assure it works out even if it means potentially leaving a ton of cash on the table.
>>736031867>starting from the worst era of im@skek
>>736031867Excuse me, aren't those literal children??
>>736031867Sex with iori arisu Momoka Hiro etc

>>736031867oh boy, can't wait for an infestation of insufferable yuritroons shitting this one up too
>>736046164what happened in the other games?
>>736045027>cardslop
Takane is my wife!
>>736046123Suisei is right there dude, only one in hololive that I listen to as a singerI also like Izuru he's on the other side
>>736045010sorry i've been busy, much appreciated
>>736042269I think people focus too much on actual technical skill level of singing and ignore the cute factor. Noel is one of the best singers because of this
>>736037145The /vg/ threads are fine when a certain shitposter isn't having a meltdown and begging thread celebrities for nudes.
>>736033604U149 sex
>>736034379Lol? Uma is normgroid coded, just for ironic weebs to pog at LE HORSE GIRL!!! Probably a healthy dose of paid shilling and astroturfing helped too, was weird how all of a sudden big streamers and what not were playing itBut idolmaster won't get that since cute/sexy idols aren't normgroid coded and pretty sure they'll call it a pedo game
>>736042918ZAMN
Can't wait
Love live sisters... Our idol married an Indian... And the jav scandal...
>>736046309I never heard of that one but I just looked her up and she's hitting bad notes all the time. Sorry that's not good enough but it's typical of vtubers to be amateurs.
>>736046292A very hot wife.
Prime fertile lolidolsThey don't want you to know this but you can just grab a lolidol off the street and take her home with you
>>736035104>common for girls to wear two-piece bathing suits>put one in a game>"AIIIIEEEEEE!!! [BAN THIS] / ToT"calm down
>>736042918>>736046714They should add twerking dances to their routines for the american audience...haha
How come no one ever talks about male idols?
>>736046920Because almost all iM@S discussion on /v/ is from secondaries (who have only seen the anime) or tertiaries (who only jerk off to the porn) who have no real familiarity with the franchise.They don't even know the male idols exist, despite SideM being part of the franchise for twelve years now.
>>736047046People barely talk about it on /@/. There's a reason why it died.
>>736047046>tertiaries (who only jerk off to the porn)based
>>736047130SideM died because Live on Stage and Growing Stars were shit games that cost too much to make.They should've just reskinned Theater Days and used the same codebase. Would've saved a huge amount of time, effort and money instead of reinventing the wheel three times.
>>736046292Nothing compares
>>736046920They're all dead except Enstars and that new thing the Enstars dudes are doing which seems like it's trying to be Enstars but also LaDS or something. Maybe A3 is still alive somehow.I guess Project Sekai kinda counts since there's about 4 male OCs + Kaito and Len and it has a larger female playerbase than maleEither way, I tried Enstars for a second, but the music seemed mediocre and the writing was boring so I didn't bother with it much.
>>736046920I like girls.
>>736046920Not enough good porn and music
Didn't read the thread but here'sSachiko!
>>736034389Vtubers =/= Idols
>>736047378SideM actually has some great music, but no one ever listens to it.
>>736046579In a franchise designed around extracting as much money and semen out of otaku as possible this character stands above the rest as being designed by a true red blooded pervert
>>736047620send some
>>736046579>I'm BearFolks, is this true?
>>736047868don't trust her lies
>>736047810From the thumbnail it looked like she was struggling in an epic battle.
>>736046289Picked up
Idolm@ster's issues have always been song/music licensing issues. if you think the RIAA or those fucking retarded British faggots suing Valve because Valve should pay them for music, too, not just the publisher...yeah it's the same sort of situation. The music industry is 99% parasitic fucks and 1% people who perform in front of an audience.
>>736047606Those ones in particular are idols, more so than idol masters because Hololive vtubers sing, dance, act, do comedy, go to events, sign merch and do every activity AKB48 would do. Idolmaster seiyuu only sing and do voice acting for their characters
>>736031867Daisuki suki hamburga!
>>736031867What the fuck will they do here? Relying only on Gakumas?The OG only do concerts. CG and SM are dead. ML and SC are almost dead. Even Gakumas cant get hold of its playerbase because their updates are too fucking slow.
>>736047810Thought those were some monstrously milky mammaries from the thumbnail.
>>736048447>Miura dies>Idolmaster goes out of business
Is all the fanart of the idols falling for the producer in these games fanfic or is it inspired from ingame events?
This character has the most beautiful fanart ever created
Isn't this the franchise that caused Berserk to never be finished because the author spent all his time playing waifu games?
>>736048717mostly headcanon
>>736048717Every single male and female idol in this franchise is down bad for the adult man you play as (the titular iDOLM@STER).I'm not joking. The lust levels are off the fucking chart.
>>736048797Shut the fuck up, you miserable little lying faggot.https://www.nicovideo.jp/watch/sm154846
>>736048790yes
>>736048862He's talking about fanart, retard.
>>736048790Yes.
>>736048717It's from the games
>>736048817Fuck, I'm all for puppy love but Koibumi to 13-sai no Actress gets all weird when the manager gets tangled by his idol
>>736046579>a 12yo asian little girl is taller than meit's over
>>736048919Have you tried to actually read what he said.>Is all the fanart of the idols falling for the producer in these games fanfic or is it inspired from ingame events?It's inspired from in-game events. I even linked a video of a commu from the game where Miki (14-years-old) invited the player character to take photographs of her exposed breasts.

>>736031867I'd like say that it's too late. They could have been the western anime idols.... but since they sat on their IP for far too long.... Hololive took that spot up and they ain't leaving.
>>736032386why are men like that
>>736049415https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5y6hogKehZE
>>736049895Harukasan ah luv u
>>736031867Seems like the right moment since Uma proved that this type of game can do very well in the west.
>>736033329Only retards who linger in shitty places like discord servers would have to endure that.
>>736034526She's actually an android.
>>736033449Kinda the same. Koume is cute, but not really interesting beyond her main gimmick.
Do westerners actually believe they can understand Idol culture?Here's a tutorial question: Why can't idols have boyfriends?
>>736034389>Hololive>All the good Holos have "graduated" (left because the company is shit)Too little too late
>>736050398They can, they just can't be public about it. You've seen on this website alone just how obsessive people can get over "purity".
>>736034640It's literally discords TOS at fault here not the moderators that enforce it (even if they're really happy about enforcing it)
>>736050523you haven't listed the reason. it has nothing to do with purity.
>>736031867isnt this too little too late? this shouldve been done if not years, a decade+ or so ago.
what's the appeal of this stinky boy?
official names leaked
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Oh0rPFvnAIA
>>736050398because they'd be forced to shave their heads, dood!
>>736050625Oh damn they kept the old names too
>>736050646that's not the reason
>>736046292An aristocrat, I see!
>>736050742ok, don't sue me pls
>>736050398Because they just love (You) so much :3
>>736046920If I want to be a fag, the Token Rambo shota are way cuter.
>>736031867Congrats, it’s going to be pozzed since Japs can’t resist the siren call of WIDER AUDIENCES.
>>736050398>Why can't idols have boyfriends?No idea, why?
>>736050815>>736050819>>736050869The reason idols can't have boyfriends is 2 fold. there are 2 reasons.Reason 1.) They must be "romantically compatible" with their listeners. Reason 2.) Their heart is reserved for "the one", see pic related.that's all. it's a bit different from western idols.
>>736050831Bamco has already been self censoring for a while now so not much would really change
>>736050625Reported for doxxing
>>736031867I look forward to the reddit, roastie and tranny seething.
>>736050916ok
whose PAI do you wanna TACHI
>>736050916>Because they have to be pure and love (You) so muchI thought it was because there was secretly a second woman hiding inside her
>>736051000>muh reddit tranny 3dpdYou belong in the same trash bin as those freaks 2bh desu.
>>736048782Fucking love sticc ribs.
>>736051123>wanting purity tests in japan
>>736050916It is because they represent the dreams of their fans. Some of their fans will dream about marrying/dating them, so them having boyfriends would shatter their dreams.
>>736051134She's cute. Shame 90% of her fans are pajeet-tier apes that make me wish Japan would get nuked a third or even fourth time.
>>736051194that's true. i went through it myself with fripSide.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P01TbOfWbBUhighly reccomend fripSide. it's very japanese.
>>736034768>ItagakiHe cant post from heaven anyway
im@s idols are pure and don't know what sex is
>>736051345even Momoka?
I just want a port or remake of the original arcade game on PC and fully in English.
>>736034379IM@S doesn't have the interesting history of the real horses to help drive interest. Uma, Kancolle, GFL, Steel Arpeggio, and even GuP all have the big selling point of intersecting real autistic hours men's hobbies, with vast amounts of history and stories to draw from, with cute girls as a coat of paint which makes them have a much broader appeal then trying to sell purely fictional idols who're just cute girls.
>>736051694it's JAPAN. you have to learn Japanese.if even i can do it, you can too.
ooh
>>736051903Which games have you played fully in Japanese without consulting any kind of dictionary or translation recently, N4-kun?
>>736052093>without consulting any kind of dictionaryhere comes the goalpost movers. i don't need to prove myself to you or your "standards"
>>736052089There are mentally disabled niggers so obsessed with gossiping over twitter posts that they need to make up their own.
>>736044624
>>736052213So, 'none'.There's no 'goalpost', you have either learned Japanese, which is to say you understand the language, or you haven't and you haven't.
do you think he'll be right?
>>736038203>Mao's story localized for the west to crank up the idpol drama a thousand fold>Literally the first ever in game event has her getting her fat titties out to sing on stage in a bikiniLocalize this you fucking casuals
>>736031867Idolm@ster is going the blue reflection direction hahaha. Woke bros won japs just got btfo again.

>>736053640>translating Alice as ArisuAm I the only one who finds this retarded?
>>736031867What happens if someone registers an account before an IP holder?
>>736053754Arisu is Arisu
>>736054161Is there ANYTHING she wouldn't do for money?
>>736053754While I'm pretty sure it IS a silly kirakira name, Arisu actually is Arisu and not Alice. Like it's in hiragana.
Wouldn't the fact that the imas producer is canonically male gatekeep yurifags? Why is everyone dooming?
>>736052827>you have either learned Japanesei said i'm learning japanese. anyone can do it.
>>736054657Yuri between each other girls will be the unique thing allowed in their discords and that will infect the community
Its going to get censor to hell
>Idolmaster finall comes to the west>maybe now Tales of Series can keep their costumes.
>>736034389the holo chibis are so fat...
>>736057684imagine that bellydance though
>>736035104AAAAAH, THIS IS BANNED IN AMERICA AND TEXAS AHHHHHHHHH
i wish blue archive had more idols , but then agian, they would never ecchimax like idolmaster
>>736035104Guys, she is just 9, so try to aim for the oldest idols instead.
>>736031867this is the eng social media account. Not the game itself. Look at >>>/vg/561977441
>>736031867
>>736058010Oh no... payment processor-sama is gonna freak...
>>736035550>>736035419>>736035246its not like he didnt make it obvious
>>736046815>calm downtell that to Visa, MC and that tranny Mary over at Valve that rejects games with underage girls in swimsuits, not us
>>736036220After the sharty hack I'm convinced its only terminally online discord troons on this board.
>>736034389Qualiarts better fucking give us Gakum@s EN once this vtumor game becomes successful
>>736031867Not only this shit will be censored, there is a chance they start releasing nigger ass idols to adapt to the taste of the westIt's literally and unironically over
First time I saw Idolm@ster in the West was in Playstation Home
>>736057684They look very cute walking around the worldhttps://youtu.be/LQAm-2QHefE
>>736058493FUCK,i forgot that schierk was part of his idolmaster arc
My exposure to this series is just the song Agent Yoru o Yuku.
>>736058536sharty hack? qrd? i thought they always hated anime
>>736059279how do you not know
>>736059319He’s probably a newfag anon
>>736034379I hope it'll reach the same niche fanbases as BA community. Uma didn't gatekept hard with troons
>>736031867This means Idolmaster skins are coming back in Ace Combat 8 right?
Generals belong on /vg/We got the blue archive thread deleted, we are coming for you niggas next
>>736058493Schierke made me relapse after I had gone over a year without having lewd thoughts about lolis.
>>736060140this is just an information thread retard nigger just like all the other twitter screencap info threads
Isn't gakuen idolmaster already released in english? I saw some EOPs playing it
>>736060140kek did they reject your application faggot?
>>736060098
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vyjWVtFVifU
>>736060802go go go
AIEEEEEE, GACHA GRAILGODS, SAVE ME FROM DA TROONS
Think this means gakumas coming west? The list of things ''''localizers'''' could fuck up is almost endless. I am already imagining a future where the EN canon is that Mao is FtM with strict pronoun enforcement
>>736060954they wouldn't do her like that
I'm from the future, remaster of the 360 game changed "for global standards" just like the rest of Bamco's remasters. It also attracts discourse for not criticizing the industry "like Oshi no Ko".
>>736060954In all seriousness it's probably just an event promotion twitter with no major plans
NO 765 NO BUYI WANT MY BOOMER IDOLSI WANT MY MIKI NANO~ AND MY HIBIKI AND MY MAKOTO
>>736062143I DON'T
>>736062143765 has more idols than you think it does.If you mean AS you need to say AS.

Genwunners are a cancer in all franchises. I say this as a 40 year old boomer.
Late gift but I'll take it
>>736064006Genwunners are gen winnersWe run this shit. Our characters are better. We were in the trenches. We built the franchise. Pay your respects lolicons.
IM@S wouldn't be half as good without the mods
>>736064227AS are part of ML nowThere is no escape.
765 is eternal. Every other idolmaster vanishes from existence the moment they stop being shilled.
>>736064307Consider: ML sounds gayer so I don't like that
>>736034389nuke it
>>736064365Pretty sure Miya is platonically keeping Makoto as a pet there so it's totally not gay.Actually Makoto might be playing a boy in that set so that's definitely not gay. That happens sometimes.
>>736064227KEK retarded.
>>736035587>Raising idols isn't as appealing to ironic weebsAnon, did you forget what happened to Love Live back in the day?
>>736034379uma musume is a more interchangeable series so it makes sense it would do well while idolmaster hard focused on making japan their only audience
>>736046651imagine the BIC entering her pink pussy every night
>>736064610t. asshurt gen fiver
>>736059774>niche fanbasecome on now. You really want these ironic weeb brown subhumans infesting your online spaces? U149 anime was a mistake.
Love Live looks like shit and their fanbase are annoying faggots
>>736065734I'd rather have brownoid esljeets than troons in my fanbase tbdesu
>>736065785LL is for real producers and im@s is for cucks who like NTR by default.
>>736042269Wow how can you be so wrong and not even realize it. You must be retarded.
Can I finally play cinfes without translated guides and jp IOS account bullshit? I was interested in Shiny Colors since its launch too but I don't care for the stats shit, I just miss a good cute rhythm game and gambling for dresses
>>736065734as retarded and annoying as they are, at least they seem to actually like BA as it is rather than a bastardized version of it
>>736066154Cinfes is a gacha. Do you mean the old CG game?
>>736066154
>Got curious and checked my old youtube favourite playlists>All the iM@S 2 videos of the girls singing and performing the songs have been deleted or the accounts banned>Hundreds of them gone with one like 2 remaining per playlist
Are you prepared to listen to 1900+ songs
>>736067316at the same timeAre you mad
>>736033801oh no. not the official discord! oh noooooooooo
>>736067316Aren't Million Live and 765pro somewhat the same thing?
>>736034379wont lolzoomoids will scream its grooming or some shit
>>736033108The gameplay loop is basically Uma but with less stats to manage, then the team who scores the most wins, the PvP doesn't seem to have a lot of depth either. it's basically just raise the girls and watch them perform a song and score points. Seems like a chill game honestly, but I don't see it having any relevance in the west.
>>736031867why is there a man there
>>736067838Million Live songs are published under Bamco's Lantis label. Some 765AS songs especially from console games are under the Nippon Columbia.
>>736037418We love Koito, retard
Don't forget to feed your idol.
>>736031867>DON'T ASK ME FOR SHIT™ "retires">Suddenly Idolmaster for InternationalsLMAO. Harada was propping that entire IP up by himself while crashing Soul Calibur and Juggleken, huh?
>>736031867Was the PS3 game remakes of the psp ones?
>>736033108I still won't fucking forget how priconne english was canned without even being released on steam, I'm sure they missed a lot of money there
>>736070512Harada is a contrarian shitter who rejected a Xenosaga remaster despite Xenoblade shilling and he cockblocked Soul Calibur from being made anymoreNow imagine if Vanillaware fired the retarded boomer who said>Uuh games can't go to pc because muh assets!Why do you think capcom is strong? Every boomer with big ego left and they gave the ips to new people
>>736034389gave them an honest chance, not one song I listened to was memorable, not going to shit on them, but I could not find one "kiramekirari~" or a "kyun! vampire girl" moment here, even Code Gayass has their iconic JIBUN WOOOOOO, yet I can't find one memorable Hololive song.
>>736070014You don't love koito; you love shitposting, retard.
>>736036834>that>OGKneel
>>736046920look, I want to fuck Pierre, yes, and Tsubasa is also delicious, but I do not care about Toru nor Kaoru, so, I alrrady wasn't sold on half the squad.
>>736046920Not enough shota appeal.
A little bit too late imo....
>>736070804If you want memorable songs Korone is the one to check outhttps://youtu.be/wLNTAMY1NZA?si=BDguas9BKUGENy2KAlso i always think of this song when i hear about idolmaster for obvious reasonshttps://youtu.be/eDyZIs4AQhk?si=7q887BFVcxY5pOIz
>>736071592got someone else? she sounds too nasal, have something like Arisu Tachibana? cute more serious loli type, classier, without entering into aristocratic stuffiness?
>>736043436It's good but the novelty wears off after several months once you figured out the powercreeping hedonistic treadmill (pull new banner->new banner chara is stupid broken->big numbers->repeat)
Nuke SEA
I quit gakumas after 7 months after being bukkake'd by ads every time I log in and the horrendous gacha.
Is there like lore between games? Are old idols get cameos in sequels like in Persona?
>>736031867People are claiming gakumas got hit with Yuri pandering Is this true? I quit the game a year ago because I got bored of waiting for Hiro banners
The only purpose of all these girlslop games is porn and you can't convince me otherwise.
>>736058493He also made that manga about a loli peeing
>>736033604Okay, I want to play your game now.
>>736046920I'm not a faggot.
>>736076492Why not?
I was told by /v/ that having things translated in your language doesn't matter so literally why do any of you care? Why didn't you just learn Japanese?
>>736031867>Soon to be infested by tranniesGood luck...
>>736031867My condolences
Imaster has ALWAYS had TRANSWhen a TRANSperson speaks, YOU SHUT UP AND LISTENThere are at least five trans idols in the series and we aim to make more or retcon them into one once the English games come out.
>>736031867Time for censorship and niggers
>>736046651>And the jav scandal...huh?
>>736031867This is it, the beginning of the end for IM@S.
>>736048214>Hololive vtubers singpoorly*
If I cant listen to Ai like Hamburger on loop for 6 hours I dont want it.
>>736031867what if it comes in english but all of the girls are brown and wearing jihab.That would be funny as fuck. lolololol. roflcopter.
>>736083087we have an arab and some hues already if you want brown idols
>im@s is not popular in japan>release westbamco is retarded holy fuck
>>736083493>im@s is not popular in japanhave you perhaps not heard of this game called gakuen idolmaster
for me? it's kuramoto west taiwan, did you know her VA is shorter than her by 1cm?
>>736083864Yeah, I'm a big Tina fan too.
>>736083931
Should I get the Temari dollfie when she comes out?
>>736084179They make them in fat sizes now?
can anyone tell me what game that one gif of the U149 girls in white swimsuits is from?
>>736085009game is dead
>>736085009There are two CG games.Only one CG game has 3d models.It shouldn't be hard to find out.
>>736085123>first one is shut down>second one no longer receives new content and is on the way to shutting downJUST
>>736085102Rip>>736085123My only prior knowledge is 2 episodes of u149 and porn
>>736065560Uh oh... I have a bad feeling about this.
>>736070449I heard she's a masochist, right?
Your favorite U149 idol?
>>736085486Momoka makes the best wife, so obviously she's the best choice.
>>736085486miria will be the perfect mohter
>>736083864Sounds very tall to me.
>gakumas has no lolisyeah I can see why they’re porting this one to EN
>>736075436What ads were you getting on log in? I don't recall ever seeing ads when playing.
>>736086329>all those yuribait between chihiro, sumililja latelyoh yeah, they are ready for those modern audience
>>736086329But they have that delicious frail and pale ryonabait girl
Saki!
>>736033329>>736035149Uma's incredibly strict stance on explicit images of its characters drew in retarded anti-hetero virtue signalers, which in turn drew in troons.No idea what idolmaster is like so we'll see if they run into the same problem.>>736034640>1984Kek
>>736086329The first-years are 14/15, enough to send EN into fits of rage regardless
gakumas is way too safehorny
>>736086824that doesn't look like the wildest flower...
>>736086920I'm not an expert on every game but I'm pretty sure Imas devs want you to want to fuck the idols.This is official art from just this month that is definitely designed to make you want to fuck idols.
>>736087163agree
>>736087612Also one time they had like swimsuit wedding dresses? That's just a porn thing. You don't do bikini wedding dresses outside porn. They want me to fuck Tomoka.Also Ami except that won't work because it's Ami. Giving her pink hair won't change that, it's still Ami.
>>736087612yep, i'm going to make udon with that bath water
>>736087612>>736087761Those are both from the same game so I should probably get some examples from other ones too.

>>736090013it has yuriko and hyper futamisis that good enough?
>>736089272You never say this when little boys are the main cast btw.
Cinderella Girls was honestly such a large part of my life There’s just something about “idol with a gimmick” that just clicks and how it mixed and matches
>>736031867oh boy gachashit will be translated instead of the real games
>>736086346Don't remember. It's always a lot of deals involving paid jewels.

>>736031867I don't care about Idolmaster, but I'm curious about how hard they will censor the global version.

>>736099225>Enami Iorihuh
what is /v/'s favorite imas song
>>736099669Is it pronnounced eye-mas or ee-mas.
>>736034389Hololive missed the mark of making a gacha game. If they made even the cheapest gacha back in 2021 they would have made actual billions from it and reduced every other possible gachas to jokes. The level of mental illness from vtuberfags make the biggest subhuman whales from singapore seem sane in comparison.Now it's too late, I don't know what's in their NDA but if they really can't use graduated talents it's pointless as they've already lost a dozen of their most popular members from both japanese and english branch.From all the clever ideas Cover had in expanding their IP they also did some of the most retarded mistakes possible with their hololive alternative and holoearth bullshit. Millions invested in shit pre alpha games never to be finished and short logs about nonsensical lore.
>> 736034187Nobody gives a shit about first vision. “All Stars” always refers to the main 13 from im@s 2 onward.>>736035246Miura was a ChihayaP. He played the shit out of the console games, but he didn’t care about CG or the U149s as far as we know.>>736035104>>736058142Neener sucks my peener.>>736087612Million Live’s art has always been incredible. Coming across Greemas art ages ago was like stumbling upon a treasure trove. The art only got better from there on out. Narumi Arata is a god.>>736064504Being a MiyaP is rough. Going off Hatsukoi Butterfly, her cards, and most of her Greemas lines (and some Mirishita ones), she’s clearly built for lovey-dovey sex, marriage and perpetual pregnancy, but the devs seem inclined to make her a prancing, carpet-munching dyke with shit like Cleasky and that retarded banner.

good thread
>>736076110not anymore than how it was at release reallyback in February there was a unit song with Hiro and China that could be seen as very light heartwarming Shoujo ai, but apart from that it's the usual Lilja-Sumika stuff and some KotoSena slop
