(the story so far) You are an idol otaku, who loves an idol girl very much. Your idol couldn't become so popular, but you enjoyed the closest relationship with the girl you love, and it looks you are trusted by the idol girl as a kind fan..On St Valentine's day, you were given a biggest heart-shape chocolate by the girl.
One day, you witnessed an unbelievable scene. The idol girl visited your home. She was ordered to sleep with a famous producer, and she escaped from the hotel. She says: 'Please, please, escape with me!!' Yakuzas are chasing after her.
What do you do?? ( continues from
Part7.

Then you have to decide. Of course, if you are a gentleman, it goes without saying what the thing you have to do then is. But you have to consider how dark Japanese entertainment business is. When you run away, it's sure the life of you and your families will be endangered. Can you throw away everything for a girl? Is she so important to you? Aren't you just loving a idol girl from the safest point where nobody interfere you?
Well, this mental conflict is simulated in this game.

And when you couldn't stand the fear of yakuza, you dials the number of her agency while she is in the bathroom. 'Excuse me, I'm a fan named Kimoyama. Rika-san is in my house now...'
Soon, her manager and yakuzas arrives at your home, and take her to the hotel. You receive 1 million yens as a hush money, and the fingerless yakuza says: 'You know, what will happen when you tell this to somebody.' You can not forget the words the idol says when she lieves you home, with teas in her eyes:
'Betrayer... ' 1 weeks later, it was announced that the idol group she belongs to will be disbanded. And soon, a local news paper reported a female high school student killed herself at her home. Later, it turns out this girl was actually a little famous idol girl who used to belonged to the group.
The last words she said haunts you and echoes in your head.
'Betrayer... betrayer... betrayer...' After you are tormented by a guilty conscience, you kill yourself by with Hydrogen sulfide gas.

What will happen when you have strong will and courage? Well, your address is known to the agency. It's not clever to stay at your home. Then you have to choose where to escape. Then, you can choose the place you have already gone to in this game.
For example, concert hall, department store, shopping mall, shibuya center-gai, Akihabara... but you have to accompany with a little famous girl. So, it's not good idea to go to the place where many people go. Akihabara is the worst, other dol otakus can discover this idol girl easily. And when you select a wrong place, you have to go to
'Killed by Yakuza' ending.
The place where the privacy is perfectly secured, and and the place where the manager can't imagine idol otaku(you) would go... The answer is,
'Love Hotel.' . It's yakuza's territory, so you think you can't stay long, but you and your idol decide to stay at love hotel for a while.
When you receive the key from a bending machine and see her face in profile lighten by a suggestive pink light in the hotel, your heart beats. But you are gentleman. You give the bed to the girl and sleep on the floor.
But of course, you can't sleep. At midnight, she talks to you, 'Are you still awake?' Then she starts to talk about the details of the tragedy happened last night.
She says,
'I was shocked when I was told I have to sleep with Akimoto... because I'm ... virgin.'
'Kimoyama-san, when I was a little girl, I had two dreams. One, to become idol. Two, to love only one guy in my life. It looks I have to give up the first one, but I still have the second one.'
You just listen to her with closing your eyes, but next, you'll hear the sound she stands up, and some clothes fall on the floor. '...Kimoyama-san, It can't be else but you. Make me an adult ...'
And...

Well, unfortunately, it's not genuine hentai game, so there won't be detailed information after this scene. But you wake up in the same bed with her, so players can guess what happened to them, just like other video games for all ages.

But this happiness doesn't last forever. You and your idol were arose by a loud voice from yakuza. She shouts, 'It's manager!!' Somehow, with the power of yakuzas, the agency found out where you are.
Seeing you and his product naked in the bed, he blew his top, and order yakuzas to kill you and your idol. Then, battle starts.
Battle mode 
The parameters used in this battle mode is exactly same as the one in another parts of this Wota-M@S. So, if the player has risen up 'Strength' or 'Body' highly, the odd the character can beat them will rise up.
In addition, the wotageis you learned in this game can be used as a spell in this battle mode.

But it's very hard to win at this battle mode. Unluckily, when you lose at this battle mode, you can't see the true special ending. You and your idol are killed by yakuzas together, but the truth is concealed, and the agency and the Police announced a crazy idol otaku abducted an idol girl and committed a double suicide. But for the idol you love, it must be a kind of happy result. Her second dream came true....

noneSomehow, you can beat yakuzas and the evil manager, but you and your idol understand that there are no places to live in this country. Then, you and your idol decide to seek refuge in a South Asian country. You and your idol have already visited there for a concert, so it's not an unfamiliar place.
You and your idol were hired by a kind Japanese restaurant owner there, and start a brand-new life there. Sometimes, Japanese tourist visit the restaurant say to the idol girl: 'I see you somewhere?' but it's years ago that she was a bit famous person in japan, so nobody can see who actually she is.
3 years later, one happy news arrives from Japan. The evil producer was arrested for a fraud that he sold a set of 45 copies of CDs tantalizing customers by a concert held 100 years later. The agency she used to belong to went bankrupt, and the manager and the president of the agency commit a mysterious suicide.
So, there aren't any body who interrupt you and your idol. Then you decided to go back to Japan, and holds a wedding ceremony in a small church.

Just in case, caution again:
It's just a story of video game, don't think this happens to in your life. If you sometimes think of this kind fantasy with idols
(like me 2 years ago), you'd better think about your life more seriously. But through these two entries from the first part, you should have know how difficult to see this ending even in a game.
The all requirements for this Special Ending are:
-Make a girlfriend and go to love hotel at least once, and separate with her before the Christmas day
-Player character's maximum charisma and love
-Maximum love from idol girl
-Make strength and body enough high to beat yakuzas.
-Learn some wotageis useful in battle mode.
-Adequate fame of idol girl (under 70)
*And you may have to go to a concert held in a foreign country.
It's very difficult to do all the things in a limited term (365 days). Especially, the point you have to make a girlfriend and separate intentionally, and raise your charisma enough high to attract idol girl again is very tough. But if you repeat this game and master how to control parameter, you may be able to cause this special ending easily.
Anyway, the introduction of this video game
'THE IDOL OTAKU M@STER' ends here for a while. Thanks for reading this freaky long series, and as I wrote in the first entry, license fee is
1 billion yens. If somebody is interested in this suggestion, please transfer the money to my bank account.
That was an interesting read about Idol Otaku M@ster.
I play games mostly on the PC(First person shooters, Real time strategy simulations & role-playing games), and i've played some good games... This one for the Xbox 360 is one of the most "strange" ones i've seen, but what makes this game interesting, is that it blends role-playing, beat-mania & love simulation into one package. Japanese game-creators never ceases to amaze me ;-)
It was really interesting & thanks for writing it.
I would like to recommend, if you have time, to try and play " The Longest Journey" & "Dreamfall- The Longest Journey 2" games. If you like adventure games (Idol M@ster feels like one) then these might be interesting for you. If you still like to play games sometimes ;-)

PS: You sure know a lot about Idols & otaku culture... & judging from your entries, you used to like idol groups didnt you ? sorry for asking such a personal question, but im curious.. XD
My knowledge on video game has already stoped for 10 years, so thanks for updating me.
The point random mixture of genres is also seen among Japanese games (not only music) is interesting.
Actually, I have a friend who was a crazy otaku who loved the group called Bon-Bon Blanco very much, almost trading his life. Here's his blog. You can see the trace of his blog, and may be able to learn about the true figure of idol otaku in IDOL OTAKU M@STER here.

Bad Ending #5 and Battle Mode are too funny, I almost choked on my drink from laughing. If I'd died, police might think it was bad ending #5, after the announcement of Ayaka leaving hellopro. (But since I already earned Happy Ending #1 it won't be like that)
(I am glad Onanie is not an option for battle mode, lol)
Thankyou for these articles on this most interesting game. I'd like to play it again sometime, while I am still young and stupid.
"In addition, the wotageis you learned in this game can be used as a spell in this battle mode."
"Thanks for reading this freaky long series, and as I wrote in the first entry, license fee is 1 billion yens. If somebody is interested in this suggestion, please transfer the money to my bank account."
LOL
(No, really, I did laugh out loud.)
lol is there any effect when you take out the manager first?
:Mr Waffle
I think it's not you who betrayed Ayaka, but it's UFA. So you don't have to go to bad end#5 lol.
First, I thought Onanie can be used like 'Cure' in Final Fantasy series, but later I thought it just consumes the Hit Points, and never recover them. Maybe Onanie will just shock the Yakuzas, and make them paralized...
:Gag Halfrunt
These series are the ones I spent a lot of time as much as Idol Statistics series in ISA era, so I'm happy some of you could really enjoy it.
*Usually, I finish one entry in one hour, but this series took 3 hours or more, especially for the gif illustration's sake lol.
:LEO
That's the point of battle mode. When the manager dies first, other yakuzas will run away, so you don't have to kill two yakuzas actually.
But normal 'attack' command can't hit the manager directly, so playeas have to make the most of learned wotageis.
*For example, if you could make friends with Johnny's fans via blogging in this game, sometimes she kindly teach you how to assassinate the idol with a blowpipe. That's one of the ways.

This was a tremendous series of posts, I nominate it for best series of the year. In fact, I want to buy the game. But sorry, I don't have the one billion yen for the licensing, sorry!
Thanks! If I can, I'd like to make 'Idol Otaku M@ster Easy Type' by myself. But it may take a long, so don't expect it so much lol.
*And if somebody kindly helps me for making this for non-profit-making perpose, I'll appreciate it .
