Recommended for fans that following Idolmaster from latest movie or playing Million Live game or fans that listen to their music only on music platform. For me, had watched the movie, played game Starlit Season, and listen to their music on music platform.

By did three of those above, it will make better experience watching this Million Live anime because it will have a nostalgia vibe and matching vibe like "Yeah, she would doing this because her X personality". The matching vibe doesn't mean negative where know the plot went, but in positive way like "if she personality X, meets personality Y, what will happen?" that would find intriguing that trying to guess what interaction going about. If the guess correct, then feeling happy that the characters stay in characters. If the guess wrong, it's a new discovery of characters personality and feeling curious.

All characters introduced with great pacing from episode 1 to 4. No rushing and characters interaction is amusing because their unique personality. They are top well-written like I felt the anxiety when the characters felt anxiety. I felt happy when the characters felt happy.

The conflict solved rather fast in one episode, where original Idolmaster need at least 2 episodes for major conflict to solve the problem. So the feeling of worried, anxiety and cynicism about 60% compare to original Idolmaster but still has awkward moment that would find interesting. I believe it's because the new characters is so talented to become idols that do less mistake. However I found episode 4, the conflict is really best. Idolmaster conflict really captured depiction of real life.

The CGI is better than I expected. There are no clipping, the model matching with the background, no lighting error, and no weird movement even the 3D really pleasant to watch. However, the model of Shizuka's hair that looking from sideling seems a little buggy for me.

The ART is really interesting that when paused for a sec, the ART blended really well with CGI and were created really detailed like have a good lightning environment typical high quality visual novel background.

Overall it did make me felt anxiety, happy, laugh, curiosity, empathy.
