What a terrible reputation!
To settle the score on The Idolmaster once and for all, the internet's own Dom Nguyen ventured to Nagoya, Japan and returned with a detailed report on his Idolmaster experience. The deeply involved community. Accidentally punching your idol in the ear. The official Idolmaster towel. Everything you've wanted to know about the sim that has Japanese tweens by the throat, all in a lovely photo blog.
Consider yourself learned.
