On today's two sessions of Idolm@ster SideM radio show, much news for the male-centric idol-production mobile game is released unto the world. Matters to us is, of course, the upcoming collaboration with Taiko no Tatsujin.
The first of the collaborative efforts is that a host of idols (including left: Kyoji Takajo and center: Kuro Kiyosumi) will be receiving Taiko no Tatsujin-branded happi coats and hoisted up to the festival stand for some serious festival-going and Taiko-drumming action in a SideM-only event.
For the inter-game collaboration, SideM players will be able to obtain a rare Ace Donder alt of Yusuke Aoi playing what appears to be a mock-up shot of the actual DRIVE A LIVE notechart (looky, dancers! Addendum: Gratefully tipped by a SideM fan, from left: Teru Tendo, Bosatsu Sekigahara, Kyoji Takajo), by actually playing the song themselves when it comes out. If you remember, the play-to-get-character model resembles the first collaboration with the Cinderella Girls spin-off line.
Now Taiko no Tatsujin hasn't revealed the exact detailed on their part, but it is something at least. Stay tuned for more as usual!
