According to this latest XBOX trailer and this MAD, next DLC-song for idolmaster Live for You! may be "Furu-Furu Future", Miki's super-incredibly-cute-character-image-song which you can find in "Master Artist 03", one of the idolmaster character CD series. How nice. Since I love this song so much, and naturally I can sing it all without looking lyrics. Oshiete haaniiiii!

And we also have this MAD. Nekomimi mo-do is not bad...yes, nekomimimiki...

* Past and present of THE iDOLM@STER

The launch of THE iDOLM@STER

THE; iDOLM@STER(アイドルマスター) started as an arcade game on July, 2005.

An official promotion clip movie for iM@S arcade relesed by Namco(2003)

The system of this game is similar to the traditional raisar sim, so it is orthdoxand steady. What's remarkable is this game is situated in the world of idol-entertainment and especially adding "songs" is far-out idea.

However, it was hard to say "characters are cute", because the 3d modelings were under developing. Without "moe", the world of idols wouldn't complete and the 3d characters were not cute. Where is the value of uncute characters?

Of course, you can't judge "moe" by appearances. It is songs that isthe element of "moe". But it is an undeniable fact that appearances isthe most important and arcade THE iDOLM@STER was like a wingless bird.

The appearances of iM@S mad movies

iM@S is easily used for video source of MAD movies ("A MAD Movie is a Japanese fan-made video, much like an Anime Music Video." sited from Wikipedia.), because it contains movies and songs. Actually some tried making MADs.

・IDOL MASTER MAD(HappyMaterial mix)

・(MAD) OS IDOLM@STER (2005)

However, the number of this kind of MAD movies was few , it stands to reason. iM@S on arcade game is not able to be captured to computers, for the stock footage is limited to official movies.

THE iDOLM@STER for Xbox360

On September, 2006, THE iDOLM@STER for Xbox360 made a big impact to video-game fans as well as iM@S ones at the TOKYO GAME SHOW 2006 (abbr. TGS2006). The 3D characters became drastically cutier and moved and danced more natural than the arcade version. This impact became a topic on Intetnet.

・TGS2006 promotion movie

iM@S MAD "C-ute EveryDayYeah! Anime mix" was posted on YouTube on October.

・C-ute EveryDayYeah! Anime mix(YouTube)

It did not get popular, but song and dance were synchronized. It is one of the primitive iM@S Collaboration Movie.
