How is idolmaster not 1.....
May'n + Nakajima is apparently the best combo.
You have obviously not seen, and heard, Macross Frontier.
I liked Idolm@ster better than Frontier.
Girls were cuter. Male lead was hard-working and relatable, not bitchy and indecisive.
If you put 765 Pro in a Macross show, I'd watch that, though.
this, the pinnacle of idol games and anime. yet..
This seems to be a reasonable list, even though I was frankly expecting to see Idolmaster in 1st place.
They appear to have asked a bunch geriatrics what they favorite idol anime was. This list is the result.
Macross isn't for old people, if anything Gundam fans likely like Macross too. I would say most of the votes for Frontier likely came from guys.
DMX and the Idol crew want a word with the people who cant rank for shit!
WHERE THE HOOD WHERE THE HOOD WHERE THE HOOD AT!
AKB0048 over Love Live! really? lol
How is Love Live not 1....
Wow that list is wrong.
Love Live is obviously number one.
Its like having a list of top ten wet things and having water be number 4 and sand be number 1.
It's just objectively wrong.
T-Shirts are the number 1 wet things.
i thought Pri-Para was also part of the Pretty Rhythm metaseries....
Technically, yes, but they want them as two separate entities.
Creamy Mami? LOL I doubt anyone knows what that one is. At least nobody born this century will.
If you were born in this century, you shouldn't even be on this site.
I misread "older titles" as "older titties". :-|
Don't know what's "Aikatsu", but i like girl on pic.
Wake up girls was DISMAL! Fail list!
For being painfully honest about the idol industry basically being about sexual exploitation?
I actually agree with # 1.
Disagree on everything else...
Macross' Ranka and Sheryl are actual good ANIME depictions of idols. Not some bullshit otaku illusion of loli idols.
meh, another macrossfag online
I like love live more than idolmaster because they never toss their characters away after having getting their own episode.
Sancom users are such sensitive lil bitches that can't appreciate other's opinions to save their life
I think it might be Autism-kun who has multiple accounts and spams fujoshits but hes been quiet lately.
Akb0048 is probably one of the worst idol animes created, how did it even get on this list and even placed 4th?
Because AKB48?
Just because you don't like something doesn't make it bad. I thought it was quite watchable.
oh you mother fucker
Dunno why I got 2 downvotes for that, but River is a song from AKB0048 :/
Go listen to River friend.
poll aside, that hibiki though.... *drools*
Very happy Full Moon made it, it is definitely the best I've seen. I truly wish it was released in full here. I did NOT expect to cry.
Full Moon is really great, you just have to hang on to the end.
Favorited. This list is relevant to my interests.
Say, are the Sankaku Channel image galleries down?
Is Love Live! worth watching? I didn't see it.
It's cute and funny. And there are no males (except for Nico's little brother showing up for 10 seconds).
Silly question, almost everybody are crazy about Love Live!
no super sonico ?
Sorry buddy, this isn't a who has the best pair of basketball sized tits poll.
If there was a Miku Hatsune/Vocaloid anime, it would beat the pants of everything on this list.
Oh yeah Definitely. Miku would just kicks too much ass.
How is Macross an idol anime? I thought it's more like Gundam with interstellar travel to it.
Macross has always had an idol heroine that provides the music and shit and is beloved by many. You can't call yourself a Macross fan if you don't know that.
The main character(s) are usually idols. It's about music + space fighting, an the music aspect is with idols. It's not just about idols like some of the others listed, but there's enough of it there.
This list is stupid. A bunch of titles aren't idol genre. They're voting solely because a determined character. Godwhy
This list is an example of what's wrong with anime.
And if you downvote this comment you're a pussy.
u call me pussy? u pussy madafaka, eat my big fat downvote, bitch.
The only pussy here is you, you're clearly afraid of being downvoted for being a fucktard and your worst nightmare has come true.
ok big man.
