According to (Bushiroad) founder and president Takaaki Kidani, the company could be leading the vanguard for one of the latest trends in Japanese pop culture.

Kidani said in his column on Bushiroad's official website, "I feel that the idol boom that has continued until now is already finished this year. I think that strong content like the second generation's The IDOLM@STER and Love Live! will remain. But as for a third generation, it's a situation where it will be difficult for a group to even stand out." The Bushiroad president said he believes the idol genre is saturated, and future idol anime and games may not succeed.

He said that he is witnessing the arrival of the band boom and has heard rumors of more projects. Kidani remarked, "I will be happy if BanG Dream! becomes the forerunner for that." Although Kidani had never cried while reading an anime scenario before, he said that listening to the second CD single "Star Beat! ~Hoshi no Kodō~" while reading BanG Dream!'s scenario made him cry three times.

No

But I like band girl anime more than idol anime (band practice > dance practice) so I'll be happy if we get a few more bangs in our dreams

One sings and dance.
The other plays rock on stage.

And I'm not talking fan Rock, I'm talking actual players.

2017 is the Year of the Idol though.

Orcs are Bandori
Idolm@ster is Gondor
Love Live is Rohan

Stand aside, boys.

I liked girl bands before it was cool.

Good luck to them. They do have Akimoto backing them but Jihen has Tsunku, Morning Musume's most famous composer and it's going nowhere.

Still doing better than ShoHare though.

Twist ending- Kasumi gets a brain tumour and collapses in the Band finals.

She gets taken to hospital when she finds out it's terminal.

Arisa can only watch as her baka gf becomes even dumber slowly losing her memory, her motor functions and the ability to eat.

Eventually, Kasumi dies but not before Arisa shares one final kiss with Kasumi.

Kasumi dies with a smile, she doesn't know who the 4 girls are around her but she knows she was loved.

How is Bang Dream selling?

>idols are over

Oh man. I'm somewhat hyped now.
>>
>the age of idols is over
So basically, we will no longer get 10 new idol groups every week, and the only groups that are going to succeed from now on are the actually talented ones?

Seems fine to me.

The rest of Nana when?

>we want the Kpop audience
Okay.

What do you mean?
Filthy kimchi copied everything to get the Jpop audience.
Turns out they only made shit that only homosexuals listen to.

And most of the world including Japan apparently.

That seems reasonable.


Also BanG Dream's anime is already way better than Love Live S1 or Sunshine

Ok.

I just want more "cute girls x Hobby" like Long Riders, Bakuon, GuP, sabagebu/C3 and so on.

That year has passed were coming back into the return of the magical girl and mecha age once again.

So, tattooed, auto-tuned, lip-syncing sluts who get ganbanged by their backup dancers? Sounds hawt.

I respect his dedication to shilling.
Good luck pres, now give me new vanguard series.
>>
I haven't seen much idol besides Love Live, but if that's representative of the quality of the genre as a whole, I think there could be much to gain from making better content. Make something actually good, and I think it could do well even in a saturated market.
