Dual releases asks for a dual update post!

Must Songs: Last update: Dec 24 | No of updates: 11 | No. of Songs: 40+40 | Song List
Key: Red = song in Red Album; Blue = song in Blue Album
White ver.: Last update: Dec 13 | No of updates: 10 | No. of Songs: 513 | Song List
Key: Orange = series debut; Green = arcade debut

Until the update post is open, other stories on this blog will also be documented here as "Breaking News", with links leading to the related page.

MS11. With the final videos added to the Must Songs song list, we can FINALLY close this Update Post for good. Stay tuned for our Unlock Guide!

MS10. More videos are added to our song list in the half-week wait, including the final two new Ura notecharts in Blue Album. We suggest you to follow or even subscribe to YouTube users like talo_game, who has been providing high quality capture videos of autoplay since V Version and continued for Must Songs, for a more timely update of First Videos.

MS9. Approaching the end of the update post's life cycle, we conclude multiple final details of the games' system:

• Some of the data can be passed between the two versions if your PS Vita has save data of both. The game will check for the other version's save data at startup showing a dialogue box, and proceeds to pass data if found.
• Unlocking of elements happens to both completing the stamp album and from receiving idol's letters. The latter could be harder because the requirements are not explicitly written out like in the stamp album, but most involves playing songs and live productions that involves each idol multiple times. Our upcoming Unlock List (and for the meantime wikihouse's) should help when it comes!
• The Taiko drum dancers (multi-colored) might be a recycling of GUMI's side dancers, being so similar.

W10. As the song list page is already up on our blog, the arcade side of this update post is now closed. While we wait for the remaining Must Songs videos, take a look at our livestream recap to catch up with the latest Taiko-related news!

MS8. And a small interpretation to what we see: there is no new notechart revamp like in the AC0 collab or 3DS2 DLC. All new notecharts to existing songs (Overmaster, The world is all one!!, MUSIC♪) are all done with adding new Ura notecharts and keeping the regular set (at least Oni) intact. GO MY WAY!! also gets its deserved "legacy Ura notechart" in this game following that decision in mid-2015.

W9/MS7. First Videos, batch 2:

• Love Fantasy
• Ai MUST GO!
• Tettette Town ~Must Mix~
• Start Star
• Overmaster Ura Oni (regular is same as AC14)
• Reimei Starline
• arcadia
• tear
• TRIAL DANCE
• START!!
• Yakusoku
• Nemurihime
• Day of the future
• Thinking ~Must Mix~ Oni/Ura Oni (very trippy bar lines!)
• Acceleration regular Oni
• Alice or Guilty

MS6. Our song list page for both Im@s titles is now updated with all the ratings and the videos known so far! Once we've gathered the remaining videos/details, we'll be free to close the console side of this update post.

MS5. Acceleration Ura Oni (10★ Ura Oni/961 notes) purchasable from shop after collecting 85 stamps.

MS3. First Video: Live Festival mode, with Red Album's Debut Commemoration Live (Red Album). This video gives explanations to the crazy (e.g. 700+ in Futsuu) combo counts shown in PVs, as the combo counts is kept between songs, like Ranking Dojo and Medley modes. Shame it did not have a better transition between Path Forking songs and non-PF songs. Also both THE IDOLM@STER and GO MY WAY!! have their newest notecharts in AC0/Vita1 and 3DS2 respectively.
