765 idols

The primary characters in The Idolmaster are affiliated with 765 Production, described as a small, independent talent agency based in a small office.^[1]^[2]

Haruka Amami (天海春香, Amami Haruka): Voiced by: Eriko Nakamura; Million Live! archetype: Princess; Haruka is an all-around ordinary girl and is considered the face of The Idolmaster. She has enjoyed singing and making sweets since she was a child, despite the fact that she seems to be quite inept as a cook in general. She is easily excited and a bit clumsy, admitting that she habitually trips at least once a day. However, Haruka remains positive and keeps a strong resolve, always working the hardest to make the Producer happy. Even though her character image color is red, Haruka actually tends to be a bit partial toward the color magenta, if not pink, which is Iori's image color. Haruka is best distinguished by the ribbon bows on her hair. Apart from her dream of becoming a popular idol, she's very grounded in her roots and is comfortable just having work in general, as well as spending time with her fellow idols. Haruka is close to the other idols, but she is the closest to Chihaya Kisaragi, whom she helps overcome her past.

Chihaya Kisaragi (如月千早, Kisaragi Chihaya): Voiced by: Asami Imai; Million Live! archetype: Fairy; Cool and serious, Chihaya has the greatest enthusiasm towards music and the greatest natural talent of all of the girls, earnestly believing that if she were no longer able to sing, she would rather die. She does not very much care for the title "idol" though, preferring to refer to herself as a "vocalist" instead. Chihaya enjoys listening to classical music, and spending time by herself, giving an aura of maturity around her, though she is really just awkward when it comes to communicating with other people. Despite her age, she has the smallest bust out of all of the characters, which makes her become envious at times when she sees other girls with a bigger bust, especially Takane and Azusa, as seen during a beach trip. Chihaya has a tragic past, namely that she lost her younger brother to a car accident eight years ago, causing her to blame herself for whatever happened that time. This also led to her parents' divorce, driving a wedge between her and her parents. She overcomes her past thanks to her friends, and after that, she is more expressive and cheerful. Chihaya is Haruka Amami's best friend.

Yukiho Hagiwara (萩原雪歩, Hagiwara Yukiho): Voiced by: Yurika Ochiai (2005–2010), Azumi Asakura (2010–present); Million Live! archetype: Princess; A terrible crybaby, Yukiho aspires to become an idol in order to one day shed her cowardly disposition. She is afraid of dogs – even chihuahuas seem threatening to her – and does not do well with men either. Having grown up in a strict, traditional Japanese household, Yukiho's drink of choice is tea, preferably green tea. Among her hobbies is poetry, especially writing haikus, but she is too shy to share her poems with anyone even once. Though her image color is white, she tends to be partial to the color "Baby Blue". Whenever she is depressed or scared, she has a habit of running off, exclaiming she will go "dig a hole and bury myself in it." Sometimes, she takes it literally, grabbing a shovel and digging a hole until someone tells her to stop. Yukiho is Makoto Kikuchi's best friend since childhood.; In 2010, Yukiho's voice actress, Yurika Ochiai (now known as Yurina Hase), resigned from her role, citing death threats against her that also forced her to change her name. As a result, she was replaced by Azumi Asakura from The Idolmaster 2 onwards.

Yayoi Takatsuki (高槻やよい, Takatsuki Yayoi): Voiced by: Mayako Nigo; Million Live! archetype: Angel; Yayoi is a bright and optimistic girl who cares for her family very much. Due to her father's unstable occupational status, her family is quite poor, as indicated by Yayoi's plain clothing, which she has actually had for a very long time. To earn extra money, Yayoi often does cleaning and other odd jobs around the 765 Production office building, and continues to do so even after she debuts as an idol. Fittingly, she is highly energetic, never letting the weight of the world discourage her. Yayoi is the oldest of six siblings and is often the one who looks after her siblings, but also wishes that she had an "older brother" type around to look after her. Yayoi is very close to Iori Minase, despite having vastly different backgrounds.

Ritsuko Akizuki (秋月律子, Akizuki Ritsuko): Voiced by: Naomi Wakabayashi; Million Live! archetype: Fairy; The cool, smart-girl type, Ritsuko believes in theory more than her own inner strength. Originally an intern working at 765 Production after graduating from high school, due to a lack of girls scouted by 765 Production, Ritsuko decided to become an idol herself. Ritsuko's family consists of herself, her mother, and her father. Her parents share the same trait as Ritsuko – being business-like and hardworking. They also own a shop in the city. Despite being an idol, she still has one hand in the business side of her own celebrity life, and is quick to chide the Producer if she thinks he is not doing his job correctly.; In The Idolmaster 2, Ritsuko becomes the producer for the idol group Ryūgū Komachi and ties her hair up. She'll tie her hair in braids again when using a Ryūgū Komachi costume in the game. In the anime, she is a semi-active idol who became a producer for 765 Production, and ties her hair in braids for the concert in episode 18.; As of Platinum Stars, Ritsuko is now a semi-active idol in 765 Production.

Azusa Miura (三浦あずさ, Miura Azusa): Voiced by: Chiaki Takahashi; Million Live! archetype: Angel; The oldest amongst all idols in the game, Azusa's personality reflects that of a kind-hearted but air-headed "big sister" type. She has a very easy-going and carefree personality, but also an incredibly terrible sense of direction, which becomes subject of a running gag – whenever she is walking, she will end up in a strange, distant place, with no idea of how she got there or how to get back. Her air-headed personality is shown when she thought of Hibiki's hamster as 'a valuable thing', making her attempt to put him inside a safe to safeguard him during the beach trip. Azusa also enjoys giving and reading fortunes, and has a firm belief that she will one day fall in love with "someone destined for her". One of her motivations for becoming an idol is, in fact, to someday find her true love.; In The Idolmaster 2, Azusa cuts her hair short (which was originally long) and makes an idol group with Iori and Ami called Ryūgū Komachi. In the anime, Azusa still has long hair at the beginning, but later cuts her hair short after she joins Ryūgū Komachi.

Iori Minase (水瀬伊織, Minase Iori): Voiced by: Rie Kugimiya; Million Live! archetype: Fairy; The daughter of one of the associates of the 765 Production president, Iori is a spoiled rich girl who flaunts her family's wealth. Although she is quite polite and refined on stage and in public, she has a very sharp tongue and is quick to berate other people's intelligence or attitude, especially the Producer. Probably because she was raised with two older brothers, Iori has grown up with a strong competitive streak, and thus rarely shows any weaknesses. However, she does have a much softer side that she shows from time to time, making her personality that of an archetypal tsundere character. She is sometimes seen carrying around a stuffed rabbit with her, which she named "Usa-chan" (also known as "Charles Donatello the 18th" in the anime). Though very rich and spoiled, her best friend is Yayoi Takatsuki, who happens to be much poorer than her.; In The Idolmaster 2, Iori makes an idol group with Ami and Azusa called Ryūgū Komachi. She also changes her hairstyle, leaving a bang of hair out of her hairband.

Makoto Kikuchi (菊地真, Kikuchi Makoto): Voiced by: Hiromi Hirata ^[3]; Million Live! archetype: Princess; A tomboyish girl, Makoto is popularized as the "pretty-boy idol" within 765 Production. As a result, she has accumulated more female fans than male ones, becoming the cause of her psychological complex and a running gag at her expense in the plot. She is usually seen in sporty outfits and was already very popular among her fellow students at the all-girls school she attends, and her current work as an idol does not make the situation any easier for her. Her father is a famous race-car driver and had wished for a son instead, so he raised Makoto as a boy. Even though she is not ungrateful of her popularity, underneath her gruff, boyish exterior, Makoto is actually an honest, sensitive girl who wishes to make herself more feminine. Therefore, unbeknownst to her father, she decided to become an idol in order to find a way to a new, more feminine presence for herself and to show others that she can have a girly side as well. She is also shown to be friends with Yukiho Hagiwara, who is much different from her as far as personality is concerned.; As of The Idolmaster 2, Makoto grows her hair longer and parts her bangs in the middle, and she is also revealed to be a skilled mixed martial artist.

Ami Futami (双海亜美, Futami Ami): Voiced by: Asami Shimoda; Million Live! archetype: Angel; Ami and Mami are a pair of playful identical twin sisters who make a two-girl singing sensation. Ami and Mami both enjoy doing impressions and teasing their co-workers, though Ami is said to be more fun-loving than Mami. The only way to tell the two girls apart is through their hairstyles – Ami ties her hair to the right, Mami to the left – otherwise, they are identical. They use this to their advantage by switching their hairstyles and both performing as idols, but only underneath Ami's name. In The Idolmaster arcade game, the only people who actually know that Ami and Mami are twins are fellow members of 765 Production.; By the time of The Idolmaster 2, the public has come to acknowledge the existence of the twins. As a result, Ami makes an idol group with Iori and Azusa called Ryūgū Komachi. In the anime, the twins are already produced as separate idols.

Mami Futami (双海真美, Futami Mami): Voiced by: Asami Shimoda; Million Live! archetype: Angel; The other half of the Futami twins, Mami is available to produce as a solo idol from The Idolmaster 2 onwards. As the twin sister of Ami, Mami has many similarities to Ami in terms of personality, but is described as more mature and a little more obedient in comparison.; While the original arcade game implies that Ami is the older of the twins, the Xbox 360 game hints towards Mami being the older twin, which seems to have been the case since then. Also in The Idolmaster 2, Mami extends her ponytail longer to further differentiate herself from her sister, and she often worries that she doesn't get as much work as Ami due to the time they spent as an idol under the same name.^[4]

Project Fairy

Project Fairy is an idol unit introduced in The Idolmaster SP, produced by the rival 961 Production. The group was specifically created so that its three members harmonize perfectly with each other, and have different specialties. As of The Idolmaster Dearly Stars, the members of Project Fairy have become part of 765 Production.^[5]

Miki Hoshii (星井美希, Hoshii Miki): Voiced by: Akiko Hasegawa ^[6]; Million Live! archetype: Angel; Introduced in the Xbox 360 game, Miki is a naturally talented girl who feels that she has rarely had to work hard for anything. Because of this, she is pretty lazy and always approaches tasks with a very laid-back attitude. She manages good grades with minimal effort and boasts natural good-looks that belie her age, but she can sometimes become an annoyance to others because of her quirky attitude she has sometimes. She even receives about 20 confessions of love from boys everyday. Raised in a very laissez-faire family, Miki's parents don't see any problem with her becoming an idol. While she doesn't really have cruel intentions, she believes like everything else, she can make her way to become a top idol easily. Miki is also known to love onigiri, and can be seen sleeping all day when not doing anything else. Her catchphrase is "Afuu", which she utters every time she finishes yawning.; In the Xbox 360 game, Miki is in some way the main character besides Haruka, and her character has developed considerably over the game's year-long time span. If special conditions are met in the game, she cuts her hair short and no longer dyes it blonde.; In The Idolmaster SP, Miki was unsatisfied with the way she was being managed, and switched to rival production company, 961 Production, as a member of the group "Project Fairy".; As of The Idolmaster Dearly Stars, Miki has rejoined 765 Pro. She also received several changes in The Idolmaster 2, with her normal and "awakened" personalities having apparently been merged into one, and her hair now naturally blonde and slightly wavier.

Hibiki Ganaha (我那覇響, Ganaha Hibiki): Voiced by: Manami Numakura ^[6]; Million Live! archetype: Princess; Introduced in The Idolmaster SP as a member of "Project Fairy", Hibiki is a highly energetic and cheerful girl hailing from Okinawa. Despite rivalries with the other idols, she remains friendly and happy, without becoming overly competitive like Takane. Hibiki has an outstanding number of pets, which she happens to lose quite frequently – her pets include a mouse, a hamster (named Hamuzō in the anime), a gerbil, a parrot, a rabbit, a cat, a dog (a female St. Bernard named Inumi in the anime), a pig, a flying squirrel and, oddly enough, a crocodile. She also has a pet chicken (named Kokemaro), but apparently it is kept at her parents' home in Okinawa.; As of The Idolmaster Dearly Stars, Hibiki has become part of 765 Pro. Her three sizes also shrank, since she is the only character that happens to, leading some fans to theorize that President Kuroi had lied about her measurements.

Takane Shijō (四条貴音, Shijō Takane): Voiced by: Yumi Hara; Million Live! archetype: Fairy; Introduced in The Idolmaster SP as a member of "Project Fairy", Takane is an elegant young woman from an affluent background, as seen in her outfits. While she has an elegant, snobbish attitude due to her wealthy upbringing, she also has a refined, regal personality, and a princess-like air to her. She hardly ever sees her mother, and her father often goes out on business trips – he is said to own a large company, much like Iori's father, which is also why Takane has problems with her father – so she lives with her butler. Takane has an amazing passion for music, and is considered one of the smarter characters in the series, being fluent in numerous languages, including German. She also often observes far more detailed things than almost everybody else. A person of indeterminate origins, it is implied in the anime that she was not born in Japan. She is indeed mysterious in almost every way imaginable as she keeps most of her personal information hidden, especially where she came from. Despite being from a very wealthy family, Takane secretly takes an interest in commoner lifestyle and really enjoys ramen.; As of The Idolmaster Dearly Stars, Takane has signed up to 765 Pro.

765 staff

Producer (プロデューサー, Purodyūsā): Voiced by: Yūki Tai (drama CDs), Kenji Akabane (anime); The protagonist of The Idolmaster. He is a young rookie producer who has been put in charge of a new set of pop idols. In the game, his name is never given, and is decided by the player. His personality is also dependent on the player's choices, and can range from sweet and protective to lewd and perverted. However, in the drama CDs, he's most usually portrayed as somewhere in between.; In the anime, the producer remains unnamed, but is given the physical appearance of a young man with dark blue hair, glasses and a business suit. As the girls' producer, he is a very hard working individual who tries his best to help the idols as their mentor figure, going to whatever lengths to make sure the girls are happy, healthy, and able to make their appearances. Like Yukiho, he too is afraid of dogs. While he mainly produces the rest of the girls, he sometimes co-produces Ryūgū Komachi with Ritsuko, often taking over when she is unavailable or it only involves a single member, even temporarily producing Ritsuko when she goes back on stage for a concert. He is most often Yukiho's manager throughout the time.

Jun'ichirō Takagi (高木順一朗, Takagi Jun'ichirō): Voiced by: Kan Tokumaru; The president of 765 Production, he takes the Producer under his wing and monitors his performance in charge of the girls. He is never seen as anything but a silhouette, and is rarely encountered outside of the 765 Pro office building, except at the final performance in The Idolmaster game. In The Idolmaster Break! manga, his appearance is revealed to be a middle-aged man around his fifties or sixties.; Before The Idolmaster 2 entered development, Jun'ichirō's voice actor, Kan Tokumaru, passed away. As a result, in The Idolmaster 2, Jun'ichirō is given a backstory of why he did not return in the game – he has handed over the position of president of 765 Production to his cousin, Junjirō Takagi, so he can stop having to travel around Japan as he plans to move to Hawaii. Since then, Jun'ichirō is the chairman of 765 Production.

Junjirō Takagi (高木順二朗, Takagi Junjirō): Voiced by: Hōchū Ōtsuka; Jun'ichirō's cousin and the president of 765 Production as of The Idolmaster 2. Much like his cousin, he appears only as a silhouette in the game. However, he does physically appear in the anime, although his face is still not fully shown. Owing to his background as a former producer, Junjirō has learned to know the idols that have been under his tutelage. As a result, he puts a lot of faith and trust in his idols, believing that they will eventually make it through. Because of this, he desires to promote them simply as they are and have them rely on their own talents and will to pull them through. Furthermore, he uses his resources well to keep his idols happy as he believes that they are at their best when they are happy.

Kotori Otonashi (音無小鳥, Otonashi Kotori): Voiced by: Juri Takita; An office clerk at 765 Production. Kotori originally only appears at the end of The Idolmaster arcade game, but then becomes a recurring character within the drama CDs. Originally featured on The Idolmaster arcade game webpage in the F.A.Q. section, she has accumulated enough fans to appear later on The Idolmaster media franchise. Among the few things disclosed about her personality and character, Kotori is known to be a little older than Azusa (making her somewhere in her early twenties), and despite not being an idol herself, she does love to sing. Her surname literally means "soundless", which refers to the fact that she was originally unvoiced. Kotori has a mole beauty mark on the right side of her chin that is often covered up by her microphone piece.; In The Idolmaster 2, Kotori remains a clerk at 765 Production. Kotori's mole also appears as a DLC accessory.; In The Idolmaster anime, Kotori takes a more active role with the girls, especially when the Producer and Ritsuko are busy. A young girl, implied to be a younger Kotori (albeit with longer hair and a mole under her right eye; later confirmed to be Kotori's mother, Kotomi), was revealed to have been produced by Junjirō and Kuroi before they went their separate ways.; Kotori is the protagonist of the manga Asayake wa Koganeiro, which depicts her in her high school days, during which she aims to become an idol.^[7]

Sora Hayasaka (早坂そら, Hayasaka Sora): Voiced by: Riho Sugiyama ^[8]; A 765 Pro camerawoman for the Million Theater. Originally a minor character in the original Million Live! mobile game, she has a somewhat more prominent role in the anime adaptation of Million Live!.

He is a fan of the idols of 765 Production, especially Haruka.

Haruka-san (はるかさん, Haruka-san): Haruka's Puchidol. Similar to Gremlins, she dislikes sunlight, turns malicious when her hair ribbons are misplaced, multiplies herself whenever she comes into contact with water, creating a huge number of clones much to the others' chagrin, and becomes demonic when fed after midnight. She also likes to nibble at others.
Chihya (ちひゃー, Chihyā): Chihaya's Puchidol who loves to sing, but dislikes girls with large breasts, reflecting Chihaya's self-consciousness with her own bust size, with Ritsuko being the only exception. She also develops a longer hair during winter that grows back soon after it is cut.
Yukipo (ゆきぽ, Yukipo): Yukiho's Puchidol who loves tea and usually rests in a cardboard box or in a hole she drilled for herself, which is often her preferred hiding place in any situation. In the winter, she grows a tanuki tail.

Takanya (たかにゃ, Takanya): Takane's Puchidol. Found in a Brazil-like tropical country, she loves ramen, has an unusual personality and talks by writing out words on paper. Unlike the others, who stay with their counterparts, Takane does not take a liking to Takanya, but obsesses over the others, especially Koami and Komami, of whom she does take care.
Piyo Piyo (ぴよぴよ, Piyo Piyo): Kotori's Puchidol who is more reliable in office work than her, and is also very agile and capable of flying.

Million Live!

The Idolmaster Million Live! introduces thirty-nine idols who, alongside the thirteen original 765 idols, are all categorized into two different archetype categories: one involving specialty (Vocal, Dance, Visual; used in the Million Live! mobile game) and another involving personality (Princess, Fairy, and Angel; used in Theater Days).

Princess

Mirai Kasuga (春日未来, Kasuga Mirai): Voiced by: Haruka Yamazaki ^[10]; Specialty type: Vocal; Mirai is a high-spirited girl who decided to become an idol when a friend of hers took her to a concert. She is not the smartest girl around though, as she often forgets to do her homework and knows nothing about historical figures.
Kotoha Tanaka (田中琴葉, Tanaka Kotoha): Voiced by: Risa Taneda ^[11]; Specialty type: Vocal; Kotoha is a workaholic young woman with a passion for acting. Despite being described as diligent and determined to do her best, she has one fatal weakness – she has a fragile mentality. This causes her to have very low confidence and easily get stressed by her routine. She is best friends with Megumi Tokoro and Elena Shimabara.; Kotoha was originally absent at the launch of Theater Days because her voice actress, Risa Taneda, took a hiatus from voice acting due to illness. She was eventually added to the game in February 2018.
Minako Satake (佐竹美奈子, Satake Minako): Voiced by: Eri Ōzeki^[12]; Specialty type: Dance; Minako is the daughter of a Chinese restaurant owner, where she also worked as a waitress and, on some occasions, a chef.

Matsuri Tokugawa (徳川まつり, Tokugawa Matsuri): Voiced by: Ayaka Suwa ^[13]; Specialty type: Visual; Matsuri is a young woman with a colorful personality who habitually fancies herself as some sort of princess. While she can be oblivious to her surroundings whenever she is acting like a princess, Matsuri is actually a mature and wise young woman, aware that her princess persona is just an act after all. She cares a lot for her fellow idols, especially the younger ones. It is also said that she is very good at everything she does, despite claiming she has no idea about that.
Yuriko Nanao (七尾百合子, Nanao Yuriko): Voiced by: Miku Itō ^[14]; Specialty type: Visual; Yuriko is a young girl who loves to read books, especially fantasy and mystery novels, causing her to develop a habit of fantasizing about the story from the books happening around her. In reality, she is incredibly shy and tends to step aside from strangers. Her only friend before she became an idol was Anna Mochizuki, with whom she plays in an MMOPRG, where Yuriko goes by the name of 'LilyKnight'.
Sayoko Takayama (高山紗代子, Takayama Sayoko): Voiced by: Yuri Komagata ^[13]; Specialty type: Vocal; An honor student at her class and a talented vocalist, Sayoko is a serious and hot-blooded girl who's so determined to do anything she has to do that she never backs down until the last moment. She became an idol because she had promised with someone referred to only as "that child" during a summer festival. Whenever she is performing as an idol, Sayoko would always ditch her glasses beforehand, but this causes her to be unable to see clearly.
Arisa Matsuda (松田亜利沙, Matsuda Arisa): Voiced by: Rie Murakawa ^[14]; Specialty type: Vocal; An enthusiastic idol otaku to the point of obsession, Arisa is such a big fan of idols that she has collected every idol merchandise she can find. She also owns an exhaustive database storing information about idols, especially those from 765 Pro, in her computer. Wishing to get closer to the idols she admires, Arisa decided to take an audition and become an idol herself. It is revealed that her obsession with idols is passed down from her father, who also happens to be an idol otaku.
Umi Kōsaka (高坂海美, Kōsaka Umi): Voiced by: Reina Ueda ^[15]; Specialty type: Dance; Umi is an athletic and energetic girl who can't stand staying inactive for a long time. Said to be capable of doing almost every kind of sport, Umi believes that she is blessed with having good legs. When she was younger, she took ballet lessons, which is why her body is very flexible. While highly athletic and enjoying sports, she doesn't mind having to wear girly idol costumes.
Iku Nakatani (中谷育, Nakatani Iku): Voiced by: Akari Harashima; Specialty type: Visual; The youngest of the cast of Million Live!, Iku is quite a precocious young girl for her age of 10. She believes she can do anything on her own and hates being treated like a child, though she is still a child anyway. Iku is best friends with Momoko Suō.
Emily Stewart (エミリー・スチュアート, Emirī Suchuāto): Voiced by: Yū Kahara^[16]; Specialty type: Dance; An energetic and cheerful European girl – confirmed to be from the United Kingdom, probably England – Emily came to Japan because she is passionate about its culture, claiming one day she will become a yamato nadeshiko . She speaks Japanese in a very peculiar way, using archaic phrases and complicated Japanese terms that were more common in the older eras. It is revealed that Emily learned Japanese from her dance teacher.
Kana Yabuki (矢吹可奈, Yabuki Kana): Voiced by: Ibuki Kido ^[12]; Specialty type: Vocal; Kana is a cheerful girl who loves to sing and aspires to be an idol. However, she is tone-deaf, and is thus a terrible singer. Because of this, she has been working as hard as she can to improve her singing. Her singing aside, Kana is shown to be really good at playing the clarinet. She is shown to be very close to Shiho Kitazawa. As shown in the movie, Kana would often eat sweets whenever she becomes anxious.
Nao Yokoyama (横山奈緒, Yokoyama Nao): Voiced by: Yui Watanabe ^[15]; Specialty type: Dance; A cheerful girl from Osaka, Nao can be described as some kind of a stereotypical Osakan, as evident with her distinct Kansai dialect and her love for sweets. She is also forgetful, often forgetting what she just said a few minutes before. While she is known to have a great belief in herself, Nao can be stubborn too, preferring to take action first without a forethought.
Noriko Fukuda (福田のり子, Fukuda Noriko): Voiced by: Nana Hamasaki^[17]; Specialty type: Dance; A big fan of mixed martial arts and pro wrestling, Noriko is an active and outgoing girl. Despite being such a tomboy, she wishes to be girlier and aims to create a cute image around her as an idol. She's not used to girly things though, so she decided to keep her tomboyish image anyway.

Fairy

Shizuka Mogami (最上静香, Mogami Shizuka): Voiced by: Azusa Tadokoro ^[10]; Specialty type: Vocal; Shizuka is a stoic girl who's incredibly harsh towards the Producer due to her distrust of adults, which probably resulted from her troubled relationship with her father. She takes her idol career seriously, and insists she doesn't need help from adults at all. Even then, she is still childish and really cares for anyone she trusts or is friends with.
Megumi Tokoro (所恵美, Tokoro Megumi): Voiced by: Yukiyo Fujii ^[13]; Specialty type: Visual; Megumi is a stylish girl who's really good a making friends. While she looks like a typical schoolgirl, she has a superior sense of style and is incredibly outgoing, often asking her friends out for a meal at a restaurant. The only known relative of Megumi so far is an older brother. Megumi is often seen with Kotoha Tanaka and Elena Shimabara.
Roco (ロコ) / Roco Handa (伴田路子, Handa Roco): Voiced by: Atsuki Nakamura^[14]; Specialty type: Visual; An aspiring artist, Roco can be described as a mad genius with wild artistic antics and incomprehensible quirks. She has quite a habit of slipping English words in her speech, though she is not that good at speaking English. She even believes she was born to be an idol, the exact reason why she became one herself. Despite having such confidence in her artistic skills, Roco is in fact somewhat of a loner and turns gleeful whenever someone comes to appreciate her works of art, which is a somewhat rare occurrence in itself.
Tomoka Tenkūbashi (天空橋朋花, Tenkūbashi Tomoka): Voiced by: Kotori Koiwai ^[14]; Specialty type: Vocal; Tomoka is a kind and polite girl who believes she is some kind of "Holy Mother".

Shiho Kitazawa (北沢志保, Kitazawa Shiho): Voiced by: Sora Amamiya ^[13]; Specialty type: Visual; Shiho is a cool, lone wolf girl who takes anything she does seriously.

Shiho is best friends with Kana Yabuki.
Ayumu Maihama (舞浜歩, Maihama Ayumu): Voiced by: Megumi Toda ^[3]; Specialty type: Dance; A recent returnee from the United States, Ayumu is a young woman who's really good at dancing, and nothing else. In fact, she has a fear of heights, cannot control herself when doing a sexy pose, and cannot swim at all – whenever she is close to a pool of water, chances are she will drop into the pool and scream for help. Owing to her background, Ayumu has a habit of exclaiming "Oh my God!" when she's surprised, but she otherwise cannot speak English, and she doesn't want to talk about her time in America.

She admits that she is never popular with boys and doesn't know why, though it is probably because she has no idea herself of how she is supposed to make use of her sexy image.

Hinata Kinoshita (木下ひなた, Kinoshita Hinata): Voiced by: Nao Tamura ^[17]; Specialty type: Vocal; Born to a family of farmers in Hokkaido, Hinata is a gentle and innocent young girl who's honest to a fault to the point of being gullible enough to believe in others' lies. Coming from a rural region, she is uncomfortable with life in such a big city as Tokyo and, as implied in her profile, she has no knowledge about the entertainment industry in general, and the idea of being an idol in particular. Also owing to her background, Hinata speaks in an audible Hokkaido dialect and likes gardening.
Konomi Baba (馬場このみ, Baba Konomi): Voiced by: Minami Takahashi ^[13]; Specialty type: Dance; Despite being the oldest of the cast of Million Live! – she is 24 years old – Konomi has a short stature for her age, and thus has a big complex about it. Because of this, she is always trying to get others to treat her like an adult instead of a kid. Even then, she is actually easygoing and very reliable to others, especially Rio Momose. According to her backstory, Konomi originally applied for a job at 765 Production as an office lady, but her application was somehow misplaced.

876 Production

The talent agency introduced in and, so far, only prominently appearing in The Idolmaster Dearly Stars .

Dearly Stars

Three new idols introduced in The Idolmaster Dearly Stars, all of whom are/were affiliated with 876 Production. They also made cameo appearances in other games and a handful of episodes in the anime. Each of them also received a three-volume manga devoted to individual story lines in the game.^[20]

Ai Hidaka (日高愛, Hidaka Ai): Voiced by: Haruka Tomatsu; Referred to by fans as the "younger clone" of Haruka, Ai is described as an unstoppable mini-tank who never loses heart despite her shortcomings and lack of experience. She is known to have a massive amount of energy, which unfortunately tends to work against her in auditions as her energy would end up overwhelming the judges. Her mother, Mai, was in fact one of the most well-known idols in Japan before she became pregnant with Ai when she was only 15 years old. As a result, 876 Pro took interest in promoting her as Mai's daughter, but Ai insists on becoming a popular idol on her own. This becomes a problem when Mai suddenly returns to the stage as Ai now has to contend with being compared to her own mother. She decides to face her head-on, using her mother's own song, ALIVE, and defeat her with it. Afterwards, she continues on her own as an idol independent of her mother's celebrity status.; In the PlayStation 3 version of The Idolmaster 2, Ai appears as a DLC character in Catalog 3 as a S4U character. Once she is unlocked in S4U, players can have her perform with either of the songs "ALIVE" or "Go My Way".

Eri Mizutani (水谷絵理, Mizutani Eri): Voiced by: Kana Hanazawa; A former hikikomori and internet celebrity known online as "Ellie", Eri was scouted to become an idol in real life. While she can perform well online, in real life, she is very shy, and is uncomfortable talking to loud people, such as Ai. She is also known to like cats. Owing to her background revolving around the internet, she's also really prone to spouting out internet memes. As Eri begins to grow more as a live idol, she becomes more interested in how other idols are able to stand out. But when Eri encounters a series of strange incidents, the truth about her producer, Reiko Ozaki, comes out as she also reveals her troubled time as an idol, when she had to deal with the gossips revolving around her on the net. In response, Eri decides to trust in her producer as she adapts Ozaki's unfinished song Precog and continues her career as a live idol.; In the PlayStation 3 version of The Idolmaster 2, Eri appears as a DLC character in Catalog 5 as a S4U character. Once she is unlocked in S4U, players can have her perform with either of the songs "Precog" or "Shiny Smile".

Ryō Akizuki (秋月涼, Akizuki Ryō): Voiced by: Yūko Sanpei; Ritsuko's younger cousin who's very soft-spoken compared to her, Ryō is actually a boy who poses as a female idol, keeping that a secret from his co-workers at 876 Pro. Because of his feminine appearance, he was often mistaken for a girl, and so he wanted to become a male idol, but when he went to see Ritsuko about it, she took him to 876 Pro to become one. There, he ended up covering for a female idol, much to his chagrin. He did so well and, as a result, the studio hired him as a female idol. After a series of pranks done by rival idol Yumeko Sakurai, he successfully befriends her and becomes more motivated by her dreams, allowing him to refocus on becoming a popular male idol, the very dream he always had in the first place. Starting with Sōichi Takeda writing "Dazzling World" for him to compete with Chihaya, Ryō begins to pick up momentum to finally convince the staff to let him start his career over as a male idol. He finally gets to appear on Takeda's "Old Whistle" radio show. By the end of the story, he comes to be accepted by his fans and becomes more popular than ever as he continues on his dream. Later, he has to switch between glasses and contact lenses, depending on whether or not he is doing his idol work, so as to better distinguish between his male and female personas.; In the PlayStation 3 version of The Idolmaster 2, Ryo appears as a DLC character in Catalog 7 as a S4U character. Once he is unlocked in S4U, players can have him perform with either of the songs "Dazzling World" or "Kiramekirari".; Ryō later returns in The Idolmaster SideM, where he now performs as a proper male idol as he moves to 315 Production, as part of the F-LAGS idol unit. This makes him the only Dearly Stars main character to make another major appearance.

876 staff

Minori Ishikawa (石川実, Ishikawa Minori): Voiced by: Risa Hayamizu (Splash Red drama CD); Ishikawa is the president of 876 Production. She is never seen as anything but a silhouette, but appears much more often than her 765 Pro counterpart, Jun'ichirō Takagi. She is said to be very good friends with both President Takagi and Yukio Igarashi. While she does believe in her idols like Takagi does, Ishikawa is not hesitant to use tricks to make her idols popular like Mai's celebrity for Ai and Ryō's charm as a girl for him.

Manami Okamoto (岡本まなみ, Okamoto Manami): Manami acts as manager to both Ai and Ryō, though she focuses more on Ai due to her lack of confidence. Because of this, the two form a close bond. Manami has a gentle, hardworking, and kind personality, although she can be rather ditzy sometimes.

961 Production

A talent agency introduced in The Idolmaster SP as the rival to 765 Production. As confirmed in the anime adaptation, 961 Pro is a much more established talent agency compared to 765 Pro.

961 idols

Leon (伶音, Reon): Voiced by: Minori Chihara ^[6]; Introduced in The Idolmaster One For All, Leon is a powerful idol who trains all day and is always running off to auditions. Other than that, not very much is known about her.; In The Idolmaster Starlit Season, Leon forms a new unit with fellow 961 Pro idols Shika and Aya.

Shika (詩花, Shika): Voiced by: Rie Takahashi ^[6]; Introduced in The Idolmaster Stella Stage, Shika is an idol for 961 Pro with some kind of family relationship to the president of 961 Pro. Born and raised in Austria, she has come to Japan only recently. Because of this, Shika makes a liberal use of German phrases in her speech and is unfamiliar with Japanese culture and customs.; In The Idolmaster Starlit Season, Shika forms a new unit with fellow 961 Pro idols Leon and Aya.

Aya (亜夜, Aya): Voiced by: Rina Hidaka; Introduced in The Idolmaster Starlit Season, Aya is an idol for 961 Pro, and a member of 961 Pro's new idol unit Diamant. Fiercely competitive, she is very determined to become better than Leon and Shika.

961 staff

Takao Kuroi (黒井崇男, Kuroi Takao): Voiced by: Takehito Koyasu; The president of 961 Production, as well as Project Fairy and Jupiter's producer before their departure. Like most other producers, he's not seen, but as with the heads of other talent agencies, he appears as a silhouette, though the anime adaptation does give him a physical appearance, just not his face. After his original idols, Project Fairy, joined the rival 765 Pro in The Idolmaster 2, he formed a new idol group called Jupiter, composed of male idols. As of One For All, Jupiter had left 961 Pro, as confirmed in the anime adaptation. As a result, Kuroi hired a new idol named Leon.; Kuroi is a cruel and ruthless businessman who will do anything, legal or not, to promote his idols, but also take down 765 Pro, even going so far as to tell malicious lies about 765 Pro to idols under his tutelage. He tends to treat his idols as expendable pawns, using them solely for his personal gains. He is very picky too, choosing the most appealing and talented individuals available as his idols and employing underhanded business strategies to promote them, rather than allowing them to build their abilities naturally, the complete opposite of Junjirō's methods.; Kuroi and Junjirō Takagi were once old colleagues and friends, but they later had a falling out after Junjirō disagreed with how Kuroi raised his idols. Since that incident, Kuroi has vowed to destroy Junjirō, his company and his idols, all by any means necessary.; His company is in fact named after him, as "961" is pronounced ku-ro-i in Japanese.

Initially consisting of 84 idols, the game features a total of 190 idols as of November 2018, making it by far the largest The Idolmaster subseries, though only 99 of them are voiced as of June 2023. The idols here are categorized into three personality archetypes: Cute (キュート, Kyūto), Cool (クール, Kūru), and Passion (パッション, Passhon).

346 Production

A large, well-established talent agency that serves as the main focus of The Idolmaster Cinderella Girls, especially its TV anime series.^[21] It is likely the largest talent agency in The Idolmaster series, having many talent divisions and a very large office.

Cinderella Project

Uzuki Shimamura (島村卯月, Shimamura Uzuki): Voiced by: Ayaka Ōhashi ^[22]; A lively young girl who is scouted by the Producer for the Cinderella Project, she was originally taking personal lessons at a training agency to become an idol, but after being scouted for the Cinderella Project, she took lessons at the 346 Production facilities. She is similar to Haruka judging from her personality, although her voice and looks are quite different. She is almost always cheerful and optimistic, and is happy to have finally become an idol. Although sometimes overly emotional, she generally acts as the friendly-type "good girl". Scouted early on, she doesn't get to do any work at first, due to not enough girls being in the project at the time. Once two more girls are recruited, she is grouped into a unit called "New Generations" with Rin and Mio, after the three performed as backup dancers onstage for Mika.; Her Cinderella Master single, released on August 8, 2012, charted on the Oricon Singles Chart for eight weeks and topped at #12 on August 20.^[22]

Rin Shibuya (渋谷凛, Shibuya Rin): Voiced by: Ayaka Fukuhara ^[23]; A cool girl whose family runs a flower shop. She is similar to Chihaya in looks and demeanor. She originally had no interest in the idea of being an idol, even hating it, but the Producer managed to convince her to give it a try after meeting with her several times. Even after she becomes an idol, she maintains her cool and somewhat serious attitude, though she starts to enjoy singing and dancing on stage. Although cool and serious, she has a more feminine side that shows on occasion, usually when she is flustered or surprised by others. She is part of the unit "New Generations" with Uzuki and Mio.; Her Cinderella Master single, released on April 18, 2012, charted on the Oricon Singles Chart for eight weeks and topped at #6 on April 30.^[23]

Mio Honda (本田未央, Honda Mio): Voiced by: Sayuri Hara ^[24]; Mio is an energetic girl who tends to get ahead of herself when it comes to wanting to become a popular idol. She is the de facto leader of "New Generations" and seems somewhat similar to the Futami twins, Ami and Mami, both in her expression and playful attitude. She even has a habit of referring to people around her with nicknames, much like the Futami twins. Although she had auditioned for the Cinderella Project before, she came up short. She eventually managed to get through on her second try. She tends to be very good with singing and dancing, though she can get tired quite easily during lessons. During the first mini-concert for "New Generations" to promote their Debut CD, she became disappointed with the small crowd that turned up and almost quit being an idol altogether because of it. After some time, the Producer and fellow idols convinced Mio to stay as an idol, and she has since been less focused on the size of crowds at concerts, instead focusing on the excitement of the crowd.; Her Cinderella Master single, released on January 23, 2013, charted on the Oricon Singles Chart for four weeks and topped at #9 on February 4.^[24]

Kanako Mimura (三村かな子, Mimura Kanako): Voiced by: Yuka Ōtsubo ^[25]; Kanako is a girl who enjoys doing idol work, but is also a little nervous at times. Her hobby is making sweets. She seems similar in demeanor to Azusa, having a tendency to be distraught when things do not go as planned. However, unlike Azusa, she tends to get flustered and nervous when things go wrong, rather than not really caring all that much. She enjoys wearing cute outfits like Chieri, and is also somewhat slow on the uptake for certain things. She still maintains a generally positive outlook on most things despite this. She is part of the unit called "Candy Island" with Chieri and Anzu.; Her Cinderella Master single, released on April 18, 2012, charted on the Oricon Singles Chart for seven weeks and topped at #6 on April 30.^[25]

Chieri Ogata (緒方智絵里, Ogata Chieri): Voiced by: Naomi Ōzora ^[26]; Chieri is a very shy girl with a demeanor and voice similar to Yukiho. She has a kind of stage fright, as she is incredibly nervous whenever on stage, although she seems to be able to control herself somewhat when she thinks of the audience as frogs. It seems she is even more nervous when her fellow idols are on stage too instead of her, as she was very anxious during the performance where "New Generations" was doing the backup dancing at Rika's concert. She carries a four-leaf clover around with her, although it's unknown if she keeps it for luck, or just happens to like clovers. She is in the unit "Candy Island" along with Anzu and Kanako.; Her Cinderella Master single, released on November 13, 2013, charted on the Oricon Singles Chart for four weeks and topped at #15 on November 25.^[26]

Miku Maekawa (前川みく, Maekawa Miku): Voiced by: Natsumi Takamori ^[27]; Miku is a girl aiming to be a cute pop idol. She seems similar in demeanor to Iori, especially with her different attitudes on stage and off. She almost always wears cat ears and punctuates her sentences with the kitty sound "nya" (Japanese onomatopoeia for "meow"). She has an inexplicable affinity for cats, although she doesn't have one as a pet, and even hates fish. Although she really wants to act cute, she can get mad when she feels she isn't getting enough attention. She appears to have a large collection of different cat ears, but tends to always wear the same pair at work. According to her, she works hard like a cat, and is always ready for work. She carries cat ears everywhere she goes so she can be ready for work at any time. She often has a totally different attitude when not on camera or onstage. However, as soon as she knows the fans are watching, she puts on the cat ears and acts like a cute and innocent idol. She is one half of the unit "Asterisk" along with Riina.; Her Cinderella Master single, released on August 8, 2012, charted on the Oricon Singles Chart for eight weeks and topped at #11 on August 20.^[27]

Anzu Futaba (双葉杏, Futaba Anzu): Voiced by: Hiromi Igarashi ^[28]; Anzu is a young reclusive girl who's so lazy she detests the idea of work itself. She tends to be similar to Miki, although much smaller in figure despite being older, with her lazy personality and tendency to fall asleep. She is usually seen sleeping at any possible time, especially during the early parts of the anime series. Her laziness is also highlighted when she and her fellow idols held a strike in protest of New Generations' debut, where Anzu demanded "8 days off every week". Although very lazy, she learns to work normally later on. She also seems to be a bit of a genius, as showcased when she was on a quiz show with her unit against a rival idol group, easily answering obscure questions and solving a complicated math problem incredibly fast in her head with almost no effort. Later on, she seems to have mostly done away with her laziness, but is still seen being somewhat lackadaisical about hard work. She is in the unit "Candy Island" along with Chieri and Kanako.; Her Cinderella Master single, released on April 18, 2012, charted on the Oricon Singles Chart for ten weeks and topped at #4 on April 30.^[28]

Riina Tada (多田李衣菜, Tada Riina): Voiced by: Ruriko Aoki ^[29]; Riina is a girl who loves rock music and aspires to be a rock idol. She is somewhat similar in demeanor to Makoto. Although almost the opposite of Miku, she and Miku were paired up as a unit, mainly because they were the only idols who hadn't debuted at the time. After some seriously heated arguments and fights, they learned to get along and perform together, although they still tended to be at odds with each other often. Riina plays guitar, but apparently only knows some simple chords and has headphones on most of the time, listening to rock music. Like Miku, who has a large collection of cat ears, she has a large collection of headphones, but is always seen with the same pair at work. She has a great admiration for a young boy who tries out her guitar and plays an amazing sequence of riffs on it, despite him being left-handed and her guitar being a right-handed one. She also has a tendency to say that something is "rocking", usually when she likes something, like her unit's name, which was originally just a placeholder placed by the Producer, since the unit didn't have a name on the sign-up sheet for the idol festival. She is one half of the unit "Asterisk" along with Miku.; Her Cinderella Master single, released on January 23, 2013, charted on the Oricon Singles Chart for five weeks and topped at #7 on February 4.^[29]

Minami Nitta (新田美波, Nitta Minami): Voiced by: Aya Suzaki ^[30]; Minami is a college student who plays lacrosse. She is similar to Ritsuko, being hardworking and responsible. She doesn't have a lot of character development, despite the fact that during the idol's training camp, she was elected as the Cinderella Project's supervisor due to being the oldest idol. However, she ended up overworking herself and fell sick during the idol fest, so she was initially unable to perform onstage. Later on, she managed to get over her sickness in time to perform with the rest of the idols during the finale. She is one half of the unit "Love Laika" along with Anastasia.; Her Cinderella Master single, released on May 22, 2013, charted on the Oricon Singles Chart for five weeks and topped at #10 on June 3.^[30]

Ranko Kanzaki (神崎蘭子, Kanzaki Ranko): Voiced by: Maaya Uchida ^[31]; Ranko is a girl who dresses in goth-loli style and speaks with strange phrases like role-play. Disregarding her strange speech, she is very similar in looks and demeanor to Takane. Her unusual style of speech makes it hard for the Producer to understand her, so much so that he writes down her phrases in a notebook along with their "translation." She is the only idol in the Cinderella Project to have debuted by herself rather than being part of any unit. Although she dresses in a goth-loli style and talks like she is from "the abyss" (according to her), she actually hates scary movies and stories, and is very easily frightened by such things. Initially, the Producer had decided to promote her debut and song with a straight-up horror theme, but he was told that she didn't like horrific things, so he changed it to a Gothic theme. During the idol fest, since Minami was unable to perform with Anastasia, she went on with her and performed with her surprisingly well, despite never having practiced it (although she returned to solo work afterwards). Her stage name is "Rosenburg Engel".; Her Cinderella Master single, released on August 8, 2012, charted on the Oricon Singles Chart for thirteen weeks and topped at #9 on August 20.^[31]

Anastasia (アナスタシア, Anasutashia): Voiced by: Sumire Uesaka ^[32]; Nicknamed "Anya", she is a half-Russian girl. She seems quite similar to Takane, such as her native country not being Japan and her notice of certain small details that other tend to miss. Since she is Russian, she often speaks in Russian accidentally (which is subbed as gibberish), before remembering to switch back to Japanese, though she is not as fluent in Japanese. However, she has no problem in listening to any conversation in Japanese, seemingly able to understand it. She often asks Minami how to say certain things in Japanese or whether she said something correctly or not. She is very talented in singing initially, which lead to her being paired with Minami, who is apparently very hardworking. She is one half of the unit "Love Laika" along with Minami.; Her Cinderella Master single, released on November 13, 2013, charted on the Oricon Singles Chart for six weeks and topped at #13 on November 25.^[32]

She is part of the unit "Dekoration" along with Kirari and Rika.; In the spin-off manga U149 , she is not yet a member of Cinderella Project, but rather of the Third Entertainment Division in a not yet named talent agency. She is also one of the nine idols appearing in the anime adaptation of that same manga, making her the only main character in the original Cinderella Girls anime adaptation to appear as a main character in another anime adaptation of the subseries.; Her Cinderella Master single, released on May 22, 2013, charted on the Oricon Singles Chart for five weeks and topped at #11 on June 3.^[33]

She clings to Anzu and keeps her in check like an older sister, but gets put into a different unit than her. She is somewhat similar to Yayoi, although much larger in figure and three years older, with her hyperactive personality. Similar to Azusa, she doesn't mind the small things and being an "older sister" type, and tends to be laid-back with her approach to work and events. Although the leader of her group, her partners tend to be able to do whatever they want, because she doesn't always effectively take charge or keep them in check like she does with Anzu. She is part of the unit "Dekoration" along with Rika and Miria.; Her Cinderella Master single, released on August 8, 2012, charted on the Oricon Singles Chart for seven weeks and topped at #10 on August 20.^[35]

He frequently calls Kuroi out for the latter's business practices, which he deems unethical.

He currently lives in Japan and works as a mascot at an amusement park, handing out balloons in a frog suit. He was scouted by the Producer during his regular shift to become an idol. His love for making people smile led to a decision to accept that offer, and soon he formed a unit with Kyōji and Minori. Concepts such as autographs, kidnapping, and Japanese customs in general have to be explained to him, and his Japanese is terrible. Pierre came to Japan as a result of a throne dispute between his two older brothers when their father fell ill, making it unsafe for him to stay in his fatherland any longer.

Minori Watanabe (渡辺みのり, Watanabe Minori): Voiced by: Tomohito Takatsuka^[89]; Attribute type: Physical; A former flower shop clerk, Minori has admired idols, notably Jupiter, for as long as he can remember, to the point where he collects all DVDs of live idol performances. Despite his calm and friendly nature, he was once a delinquent, as evidenced by his past as a gang member, which explains why he is prone to threatening or scolding someone, although in a refined manner. He compares other people to flowers when talking about them. He is also skilled at sewing and cooking. Since he is often seen doting on Pierre so much, he is considered the leader of his own unit. As an aficionado of idols, Minori understands what other fans want and, because of this, he habitually takes pictures with Kyōji and Pierre on his smartphone and emphasizes the importance of his unit's costumes. Before performing, he looks at flower stands sent to the agency by fans and praises his fellow teammates whenever they do a successful job; he is also protective of them. As shown in an in-game event, he enjoys barbecuing and riding motorcycles.
Kyōji Takajo (鷹城恭二, Takajo Kyōji): Voiced by: Yūichirō Umehara ^[89]; Attribute type: Intelligent; A former convenience store clerk, Kyōji became an idol to start from scratch at Pierre's advice after moving out of his family's house following arguments with his father and older brother over his college entrance exam grades.

Despite this, he has good intentions and loves his fellow teammates. He is also not good at smiling or television appearances, and manages to achieve a more natural smile by thinking about his fans' support when made to improve his stage presence and fanservice ability on one occasion. However, he has a poor relationship with his family, except his younger brother. Kyōji can perform mathematical calculations in his mind and do housework himself, especially laundry.

Rui Maida (舞田類, Maida Rui): Voiced by: Junya Enoki ^[89]; Attribute type: Mental; Rui is an upbeat and fun-loving former English teacher who never lets things put him down.

In fact, his motivation kicked off when he happened to see his best friend since university, Hokuto Ijūin, perform at his school's cultural festival. Fittingly for his personality, Rui is very much into extreme sports, namely skiing, snowboarding, and surfing.
Jirō Yamashita (山下次郎, Yamashita Jirō): Voiced by: Yoshiki Nakajima ^[89]; Attribute type: Intelligent; A miserly former chemistry teacher, Jirō is very lax about his job and quite a slacker, in contrast to his colleague, Michio Kazama.

He decided to become an idol because he had heard of Michio talking to himself about becoming an idol.

Other characters

The Idolmaster Dearly Stars

Mai Hidaka (日高舞, Hidaka Mai): Voiced by: Ryoka Yuzuki (Splash Red drama CD); Mai Hidaka is the mother of Ai Hidaka. She is 29 years old, which means that she was indeed very young when she became a mother. Because of her youth, Mai is rather sporadic and very energetic, though never to the point Ai can get. She was once a legendary S-Rank super idol who won the Ultimate Idol, but she was only active for three years before abruptly retiring. Her image song "ALIVE" was extremely popular, and she even later allowed her daughter to adopt as her own when she became an idol. Later in Ai's story, Mai suddenly comes out of retirement with Manami Okamoto as her manager. Her sole reason for coming out of retirement at all is because she thought it would be fun and interesting to stand on stage again with her daughter.
Ayane Suzuki (鈴木彩音, Suzuki Ayane): Voiced by: Yurin (Innocent Blue drama CD); Ayane Suzuki, who prefers to be called Cineria (サイネリア, Saineria), is a fairly high ranking net idol, as well as Eri Mizutani's chat buddy. When Eri was still a net idol, Ayane was supportive of Eri, wishing the best of her ability whenever she could. As someone who looked up to Eri back in her net idol days, Ayane believes that Reiko Ozaki had tricked the pure Eri into joining the "Dark Side" and tries to make Eri reconsider her choice.; In The Idolmaster 2, Cineria is the name of a news reporter. This seems to allude to the ending of The Idolmaster Innocent Blue volume 3. A unit with this name also appears on the "DO-TOP TV" ranking.
Reiko Ozaki (尾崎玲子, Ozaki Reiko): Voiced by: Yū Asakawa (Innocent Blue drama CD); Reiko Ozaki is a freelance producer who discovered the talents of Eri Mizutani upon watching one of her videos. Ozaki started scouting Eri and emailed her everyday, offering her a job as a live idol and asking her to meet her in person. Ozaki temporarily makes a contract with 876 Production and debuts Eri under the company label. Ozaki herself was once an idol, part of an idol duo known as riola, paired with another girl, Satomi Kondō. During her idol career, Ozaki never got past F-Rank due to slanderous comments about the unit and their agency's president that were posted online. This caused her to hate the internet and drives her desire to protect Eri from it. The song "Precog" was going to be her last image song, but it went unfinished by the end of her career. She later allowed Eri to finish the song and use it as her own.
Sōichi Takeda (武田蒼一, Takeda Sōichi): Voiced by: Tatsuhisa Suzuki (Neue Green drama CD); Sōichi Takeda is a talented music producer who also writes songs on the side, depending on his mood. While he plays a minor role in the series, he has the biggest role in Ryō's story in Dearly Stars. Takeda has a strong passion for instrumental jazz and classical music and is in fact the host of a radio show called "Old Whistle", which he created to honor classical music. However, he also has a dream of creating an idol that could help ascend music. In fact, before he took interest in Ryō, Takeda only allowed one other idol, Chihaya Kisaragi, whose talents he was quick to recognize, to appear on "Old Whistle". Chihaya had personally approached Takeda several times to have him write a song for her, only to be turned down as he felt that talent like hers would be wasted on a song written on a whim. Takeda was also the one who wrote the song "Dazzling World", which eventually became Ryō's image song. As he collaborates with Ryō, Takeda is able to learn and challenge himself to the point where Ryō can finally stand and the two can achieve their respective dreams.
Yumeko Sakurai (桜井夢子, Sakurai Yumeko): Voiced by: Sayuri Yahagi (Neue Green drama CD); Yumeko Sakurai is a freelance idol who's determined to achieve her dream no matter what it takes. Introduced as rival to Ryō Akizuki, she is thought to be an extremely talented idol, though it is revealed that she has cheated her way to the top by sabotaging rival idols by various means, including giving them a candy that clogs the vocal chords or making the stage floor slippery. After Ryō convinces her to stop, Yumeko reveals that her dream was to appear as a guest on Takeda's radio show "Old Whistle". Despite being rivals, she frequently hangs out with Ryō to talk about their upcoming auditions. After Ryō reveals himself as a boy, Yumeko starts to have a crush on him, much to her discomfort. Yumeko also has an extremely high admiration for Azusa Miura, so much so that she refers to her as an older sister.

The Idolmaster Starlit Season

Kohaku Okuzora (奧空心白, Okuzora Kohaku): Voiced by: Aimi Tanaka; Kohaku Okuzora is an idol scouted by 765 Production's Producer for Project Luminous. Her birthday is the same as the release date of The Idolmaster arcade game.; In the game, when she met the 765 Pro producer for the first time, Kohaku revealed that she first heard of 765 Pro from her mother, a famous actress named Mayumi Okuzora (奥空眞弓, Okuzora Mayumi). It is also revealed that she was once an idol for 961 Production, having previously been a member of the idol unit AlbaNoct, paired with Aya.

Legacy

Bandai Namco Entertainment (and to an extent, Aniplex) has allowed third-party companies and organizations to use the franchise's characters in their promotions both individually or as a group. Miki Hoshii was named the store manager of Tower Records' Japanese branches on March 21, 2011, at the retailer's Shinjuku branch.^[111] In 2012, the Tokyo Shrine Agency distributed posters and pamphlets featuring the 765 Production idols as part of a campaign to attract hatsumōde visitors.^[112] Sagan Tosu featured the idol characters of Cinderella Girls on the tickets and merchandises for their September 12, 2015, match against the Shimizu S-Pulse and September 26, 2015, match against the Ventforet Kofu.^[113]^[114] In November 2016, Mimura Kanako was appointed as the campaign girl for Boul'mich, a French chocolate shop in Japan.^[115]

On September 6, 2018, Nissin Foods teamed up with Bandai Namco for a music video featuring Honda Mio, Hino Akane and Takamori Aiko as the unit Positive Passion advertising their Curry Meshi product titled "Spice Paradise", produced by Sanzigen. A CD including eight versions of "Spice Paradise" was released in a special box also including 6 Curry Meshi cups and a clear file on September 18. The music video features Curry Meshi's mascot, Curry Meshi-kun.^[116] Five months earlier, SideM also had its own collaboration with Nissin Foods, albeit with their Cup Meshi instant rice product. The SideM/Cup Meshi collaboration featured Michio Hazama, Rui Maita, and Jirō Yamashita, all three of which form the S.E.M unit in SideM.^[117]

2019 Cinderella Girls general election

In late April 2019, non-Japanese fans of the Cinderella Girls sub-series of the Idolmaster franchise started pairing the then-unvoiced Brazilian character Natalia with Solid Snake of Konami's Metal Gear franchise.^[118] On April 22, 2019, Canadian YouTuber Mahado, a fan of the series, released a video in which Solid Snake, voiced by David Hayter, urges players to vote for Natalia in the 2019 Cinderella Girls general election, with audio by PepsiJohnny and Japanese subtitles by ThePascalPama.^[119] The campaign involved both players in^[120] and outside Japan, and at the end of September 2019, Natalia placed 9th in the overall preliminary rankings (3rd in Passion idol rankings) in the election^[121] and finally got a voice actress, Teru Ikuta.^[122]
