Christmas has come a few weeks early!  Yum!  Note the double entendre.
This episode is brought to you by cake resale proceeds and worn-out wallets.  How the hell do you wear a hole in a coin pocket, anyway?
With Jupiter out of the way and Chihaya’s emo turned into “500 Ways to Say Thank You,” iDOLM@STER is pretty void of drama.  OR IS IT?  It looks like the girls have all-new foes to compete with.  Do you know who?
Also, continuing in the vein of recent eps, there’s a boatload of songs, including an anime original insert and an anime original ending!  They’re pretty catchy, too.

  1. IDOLMASTER 22!!!
    You know, UTW seems pretty tsundere. Every week you alternate between instant release and week-long delay. I want to see more dere please!

  2. guys….just a little suggestion…
    may u fix ur wesite layout? because it’s too cramped whenever i set my monitor to 1920×1080
    but it looks good on my 14″ laptop
    =======
    thanks for new iM@S 😀

  3. >void of drama
    I don’t know, doesn’t really seem like it.
    Anyway, I enjoyed this from beginning to end. Probably more than the Azusa episode. Still undecided on that.

  4. @mesie – that’s the… 2nd? 3rd? time this has happened? our boys on ts seem fond of copy/paste without updating, and i never catch these things during my edit run <.<;;
    @Progeusz – isn't that the beauty of it? even the idols you thought were incredibly annoying at first become endearing. wait, i take that back. haruka, makoto, iori and ritsuko still get under my skin ^^; the rest, though! wow.
    @Leon-Gun – i said it before, and i'll say it again. when shit goes down…

    sadly, miki's too adorable to come out on top T-T

  5. @TruePsyche, yeah, I think so too.
    At first, I didn’t like Haruka much, now I’m perfectly fine with her (but it may change if she tries to steal Honey from MikiMiki or gets emo about it – luckily both scenarios seem rather ooc for her).
    Yukiho doesn’t get much screen time lately so I’m not sure if I started to like her or simply can’t notice her. She was really nice when she made GAR ouji out of Makoto (these scary eyes filled with passion!) Rest of them…
    At first twins were my definite favs (their introduction bought me. Futami Ami! Futami Mami! <3) – I love positive, hyper active girls (yep, this applies to Miki and Hibiki too). Suddenly Azusa took the lead with her totally hilarious episode, bringing out Makoto's manliness at the same time (I'm totally gay for him and I know everyone else is as well xP). Then I was blessed with MikiMiki episodes, splendid Takane (police officer outfit @_@) and Chihaya (I was moved!) afterwards. Hibiki also wanders somewhere in the high-tier throughout the whole series. Iori is nice standard tsundeRie and Yayoi is truly a godsend for any parent. She's so cute and dependable <3
    Furthermore, I got into watching vids from games on YT some time ago (I mean, besides standard songs, /a/ helped me a lot with this matter). Favorite one? This little masterpiece: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tK5CT3Fi02c
    I could listen to it forever. Belly dance of Takane and Azusa in recommended videos is nice as well.
    iDOLM@STER sure is fun. I totally forgot about lack of Saki thanks to it.

  6. Miki’s TV confession is SO cute XD
    Also [spoiler] I’m kinda surprised Haruka beat Miki in getting the lead role in the musical. Mainly because Miki seems to be better at memorizing material and winning over an audience. But then again, maybe Haruka fit the lead character in the musical better?[/spoiler]

  7. is it just me, or is the timing for the line and the poster typeset about 3:35 ish to be about as short as a tenth of a second, because it looked like a flash to me…

  8. wow, it really sucks to have my computer, just turning off the vs subfilter buffer makes the line but not the typeset stay on the screen the entire time, but lags the subs and video…

  9. 6:59 > “but i’ve got recording for a variety show on that day…” you forget the a after got, since that will make sense that way.
    20:24 > “What you said back in summer at the beach.” should include the word ‘the’ after ‘in’ and before ‘summer’.
    finally, to cap off my grammar nazi-ism, which i am a hypocrite of, since i am not using proper capitalization or punctuation here, preview title isn’t translated. not trying to be a bitch here, just, “helping” :3

  10. I’ve got the 720p version and I’m not going to download 480p for you, but it’s easy to check for yourself.
    If you’re using WMP with Shark codecs, you can always ask Shark to “Analyze Media File”.
    You’ll get a .txt and if there’s the mention of “Text” in it, it means your vid has subs.
    If you’re using WMP without Shark, you can always use MKVToolnix (http://www.bunkus.org/videotools/mkvtoolnix/) and open your video with it.
    It’ll probably show a video track with ID 1 and an audio track (or two).
    Just look, if there’s a subtitle track (for UTW’s iDOLM@STER releases, there should be two subtitle tracks with ID 3 and 4)
    If you’re using MPC-HC, you might want to open the video with it, then right click on the player (while the video is open) and select “Properties”. See if there’s a “Text” mention in it.
    If there’s absolutely no mention of “Text” or “Subtitle” and you absolutely need 480p, you can always use MKVToolnix to remux your video.
    Just download 720p (which I guarantee has subs included), open the 720p video with MKVToolnix and deselect everything except “S_TEXT”, then open the 480p video and click on “Start muxing”.
    Since it’s only a remux, it will take only about 20 seconds or less (depending on your HDD/SSD speed).

  11. @Anononono, what are you talking about? It’s one of best shows right now (along with F/z, Chihayafuru, Penguins and Horizon).

  12. @Drano : I checked and there is no sub in 480p version. and I download the 480p because it’s smaller and my connection is slow. if I download the 720p version, what’s the point of using its sub to fix the other one? anyway, whatever. now that I’m sure the other version is OK, I’m just downloading that one.

  13. never mind, I fixed it. there seems to be a problem with the file an KMP. my bad, the 480p version is fine, just open it with something else.

  14. @Anononono: Prob because the guys doing it are all iDOLM@STER fans? It’s the same reason they do everything related to Fate and Type Moon.

  15. @Genra: Fileserve doesn’t like people who don’t like their cookies, so they give you a “Page removed” error instead.
    Screw Fileserve, I use Filesonic instead.

  16. @Progeusz:
    If that’s some h doujin, then IT’S OVER!
    iM@S is too adorable, innocent, and hhhnggggg for that. D:

  17. Let me clear something up. If a computer can’t run 720p, they can’t run 480p with 10bit. Can you encode the 480p videos in 8bit?
    Because my computer hisses at 10bit.

  18. @7se7en
    Huh?
    iDOLM@STER already is in 8 bit, 720p at least is.
    If you’re referring to other releases, why not post your question there?
    Although I don’t think the staff will read the comments very often, so don’t get your hopes too high.

  19. Ano…why is the subtitles for iM@S ep.22 doesnt have any subtitles? I’ve been trying downloading both link repeatedly for three days already and changing players, but the subtitles still doesnt appear. And when I check the subtitle script for ep.22 with KMPlayer, its empty. (am I the only one who’s facing this problem??)
    Can anyone help me please….at least post the sub script, hate it when I only understand the bits of the story but not the conversation…huhuhu

  20. @izumi-sama
    If I understand correctly, it seems like quite a few people are missing subs with KMPlayer.
    Either use MPC-HC or WMP.

  21. There are two types of plumbing license, a master plumber and
    a journeyman’s license. He was the plumber who’d come over to complete an inspection as part of a home warranty package, back when we originally purchased the home.
    When choosing the master plumbers Brisbane, make sure that
    he provides you with the best quality services and products related to plumbing.
