Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
This tour predates THE iDOLM@STER anime by two years; the franchise lived or died on these live events and the obsessive fan recording culture that documented them.
The Osaka date was delayed two months due to swine flu concerns, making it both the final show and weirdly apocalyptic in energy—cast thought it might be the last ever.
