'The iDOLM@STER Side M' Episode 2 Spoilers: Can Dramatic Stars Keep Up With Their New Musical Career?
Adding yet another title to this fall season's idol anime series is a newly formed three-man unit under the management of the 315 Productions on "The iDOLM@STER Side M." What future awaits the Dramatic Stars?
Idol units are composed of passionate individuals who like nothing more than to be able to perform on stage, while also being able to keep their sense of individuality intact. Units are also usually composed of young members full of passionate dreams and an almost limitless stamina.
So how can a group of guys in their late twenties consisting of a lawyer, a surgeon, and a pilot, ever hope to compete?
The answer is still up in the air, but 315 Productions has just put its faith on one such unit who may not be as young as most but are undoubtedly equally passionate about pursuing their dreams of being able to perform on stage.
They will, however, have to work doubly hard, not only to synchronize their movements and tune up their voices but to also develop the strength to last for an entire live concert. Do the members of Dramatic Stars have enough passion for this particular dream, or will the pressures of their upcoming training and potential debut end up breaking them apart?
