iDOL DAYS: The Show About Idol Anime!

All podcasts eventually return to Honse

♡

We've arrived at the end! Just 3 movies, and then there's no more UtaPri to discuss! Surely we can keep it together long enough to have a normal podcast episode, right?

Right?

♡

It's time again for The Writer's Not Disguised At All Beef With The Entertainment Industry! This time, featuring "Hey what if we spent 3/4 of the season on a stage play?"

♡

Happy holidays! We're back once again and reviewing some Christmas idol tunes! How festive you feeling, dear listeners?

Listen along to the music playlist! https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLzR2DgwusHxAdxGSqe2Dqqo6Uetx6S7Bp&si=Ka4X3_6RsCrmKnrI ♡

After a famous idol beefs it and dies, she's given a second chance at the stage by possessing the body of an up-and-coming (and hideously lazy) idol!

Featuring special guest Athena!

♡

Step into the land of PriPara, where everyone can be the idol of their dreams! Especially if you're 10 and not 80 like your humble hosts.

♡

We're going back in time for an early 2000's idol anime! I bet there won't be a ton of family drama in it. Or recycled animation. What fun!

♡

A weary artist, an exiled idol, a musically inclined fangirl, and a vtuber walk into a cafe... what happens next is a musical sensation that'll sweep the internet!

♡

We're back at it again with the boys! Trigger's been cancelled, some purple guy's causing problems, Re:Vale is scheming, and I7 is... also there! This is a big one, lads.

♡

We're back for season 2 of Love Live Superstar, and we've got some new girls! Some new plot points! And no, we aren't salty about it at all! Let's go pro gamer mode. ♡

The summer of Love Live came early, and it's time for us to tackle the newest series! Let's dive into Love Live Superstar!

♡

What's that? You think these guys are TOO OLD to be idols? Shows what YOU know!! Let's talk about Eternal Boys, the 35+-year-old idol group that's sweeping the nation! (And not just because of their bad business decisions)

♡

It's time for our first mini-episode! As they say, Spring is for fools in love. Let's hear how Star fell in love with these girls' story! NOTICE: It appears there was something wrong with the audio in our recording, we're on it, but for now we hope you can fill in the blanks.

♡

Have you ever wanted to be reincarnated as an idol's child? WHO HASN'T, AM I RIGHT?? Let's talk about Oshi no Ko, the idol anime that took the community by storm last year!

♡

We're back with our first real episode of 2024! And to start off the year, we're heading back to an old friend and checking out the newest installment in the iDOLM@STER franchise! Let's talk about million girls- I mean Million Live!

♡

Hellooooooooo iDOL DAYS friends!! It's been a bit, but we're BACK with some updates! The format of the show is changing slightly, so listen on for more details!

♡

It's K-On for zoomers! Last season Bocchi took the internet and the stage by storm and we wanted to watch it, dangit! Let's start a band.... if we can muster up the courage. (Also, happy 69th episode. Nice)

♡

The end of 2022 was determined to keep us down, but we're finally BACK and finishing off Carole and Tuesday! On today's episode.... politics? In MY anime?! It's more likely than you think! Let's dive into the 2nd season!

♡

It's that time of year again! Time for a chill episode where we listen to some chill Christmas tunes and ignore how stressed and tired the holiday season makes us. Also, who put this snow all over our studio??

♡

It's been a little bit, but we're finally back with a new episode! We're diving into a favorite from a few years ago and following the musical journey of Carole and Tuesday, two rising stars from Mars! 

♡

Sarah's dragging us back for the final full season of UtaPri! And, in true UtaPri fashion, it's the wildest and most unhinged one yet. Three idol groups compete, only one can win... but first we gotta make a lot of Kingdom Hearts references. 

♡

Let us begin the idol strategem! When an ancient Chinese tactician is isekai'd into the modern day, what does he do? Become a talent manager for an aspiring singer, obviously! It's the final part of Cursed Idol October, and our usual special guest makes a return to discuss the shenanigans with us! 

♡

The cursed white whale of idol anime has finally been slain. Sarah watched Devidol, a show I bet you didn't know existed! Well, you know about it now. So let's talk about it. 

♡

What's Spookymonth without some spooky vampire boys?! Star's kicking off Cursed Idol October with Visual Prison, and it's... a show. Can these pretty boys and hilarious camp save the show from the abysmal writing? Let's discuss. 

♡

Welcome to the world of Midi City, where everyone's a cute Hello Kitty animal mascot and also your guitar talks to you. I'm sure this is a perfectly normal and sensible place to get isekai'd into! Right? 

♡

When traditional weapons are banned, only one way for men to do battle remains... duke it out with sick rhymes and sicker beats! Star watched the rap boys show and it was so much wilder than we thought it would be. And remember: Don't do drugs, kids

♡

Sarah's bringing us into a newer anime! An ordinary girl becomes the assistant manager to two idols, and has to keep her work a secret. But the two idols she manages happen to be her classmates at school, and there may be trouble on the horizon... Like the ending. It certainly has an ending. Let's dive into it!

♡

Sarah was sick so it's a bit delayed but part 2 of Love Live Nijigasaki is here! And the salt flows freely! The producers of this anime are cowards so let's talk about it.

♡

The summer of Love Live has returned for round 3! And, as always, the Love Live episodes are where we get the craziest. Let's get into it and meet the solo idols of Nijigasaki!

♡

It's time for the finalists of the reality show Selection Project to take the stage! The winners will make their debut as idols, and the losers... Well. You'll see. (Also, is anyone getting a sense of deja vu?)

♡

On this episode, we're aiming for position zero! We're gonna be top stars! We're... gonna be sacrificed to a giraffe maybe? I'm sure that'll be fine. Let's talk Revue Starlight!

♡

Welcome back to Too Many Boys, the show that has too many boys! We love 'em, but sheesh! 

On this episode: Murder (allegedly)! BOYS (absolutely)! FILLER EPISODES (DEFINITELY)!! Let's get into the 2nd half of Ensemble Stars!!!

Covers episodes 13-24.

♡

At this school, everyone wants to be top idol... and there's a lot of contestants. On this episode: Sarah gets 4 new sons, Star has opinions and a crush on a dude with a blimp, and there's so many more boys! Let's meet these boys!!

Covers episodes 1-12. 

♡

We've been doing this podcast for two whole years! Two!! Can you believe it? Let's discuss the past year, the future of the podcast, play some games and answer questions from listeners! And if you're good, we may even teach you how to swim. 

♡

Maybe the real zombies were the friends we made along the way? For the final episode of Cursed Idol October, we're returning to the spookiest idol show- once again with a special guest! Let's catch back up with Franchouchou and watch season 2 of Zombieland Saga!! 

♡

Gazers, grab your chrono crystals and prepare to reset the timeline- Cursed Idol October has finally gone too far. Star watched Gekidol so you don't have to.

♡

Cursed Idol October has officially begun, and we're kicking it off with... idol politicians?? Sarah's gonna tell us about Idol Jihen!

♡

Hey you! Yeah, you! I wanna start a band! With you, me, and that health inspector we've been hiding in the fridge. But first, let's discuss BanG Dream season 1!

♡

We're heading back to school (?) with the Utapri boys, with season 2 of Uta no Prince-Sama! Which is WAY wilder than we expected, why didn't anyone tell us how wild it got?!

♡

We're finishing off this year's Summer of Love Live with the Aqours movie- let's go on a QUEST!

♡

All idols go to heaven, unless they have unfinished business.... Star finally finished watching Idoly Pride, so now it's time to talk about it (and all the feelings it caused)! 

♡
