** Some may say all of ''Million Live'' is this. At first considered to be an unnecessary cash-grab of a mobile game when the older ''Cinderella Girls'' already exists. Once the characters began to show more depth, the music attributed to the game started to improve, and the event themes became more interesting, ''Million Live'' is starting to show a decent-sized (not to the extent of ''CG'') and loyal fanbase.

** It might not be reciprocated, but because Creator/KentaroMiura has been known to be a huge fan of this series, to the point of being erroneously being blamed for a ton of [[ScheduleSlip schedule slipping]], Manga/{{Berserk}} fans have been shown to dislike this series because of the competition; it isn't unusual to find comments in Idolmaster-related Website/YouTube videos or web-page articles commenting on ''Berserk'' potentially being delayed again and/or general reactions of "He put ''Berserk'' on hiatus for THIS?!". However, in modern times blaming Idolmaster for hiatus now is seen as beating a dead horse since it's generally understood that it was, at the time, a fandom in-joke taken way too seriously.
** Naturally, the franchise also has a rivalry with fellow idol franchises such as ''Franchise/LoveLive''. ''LL'' in particular draws snark from ''iM@S'' fans due to what they perceive as lower-quality CG animation, the smaller cast of characters (though one could argue that a [[LoadsAndLoadsOfCharacters larger cast]] [[Administrivia/TropesAreTools doesn't always mean a better cast]]), and the comparatively loud fanbase. %%Some ''Love Live!'' fans also pointed out that the girls' relationship to the ''male'' Producer is not a good example to some Yuri fans.
* GrowingTheBeard: ''Million Live''. During its first year, it felt rather generic and only existed as a sort of Cinderella Girls clone. As time went on, the events became more extravagant, the card art got better, the music [=CDs=] associated with the game have greatly improved, and the new characters have gotten enough depth to match up with some of the original 13 765Pro idols, causing the sub-series to stand out in its own right.

* RescuedFromTheScrappyHeap: While Jupiter wasn't well received during their debut due to the series consisting of female idols up until that point (except for [[WholesomeCrossdresser Ryo]]), fans have somewhat warmed up to them in the anime version; while they're still high-and-mighty jackasses (especially Touma), they clearly [[EvenEvilHasStandards show disgust]] when they realize Kuroi has been skipping past the MoralEventHorizon behind their ears. Their non-business moments with the cast in the [=OVAs=] also helped. Eventually, they turn over a new leaf as idols in the [=SideM=] game, and act [[TookALevelInKindness significantly nicer than they were in 2]].

** Naturally, the franchise also has a rivalry with fellow idol franchises such as ''Franchise/LoveLive''. ''LL'' in particular draws snark from ''iM@S'' fans due to what they perceive as lower-quality CG animation, the smaller cast of characters (though one could argue that a [[LoadsAndLoadsOfCharacters larger cast]] [[TropesAreTools doesn't always mean a better cast]]), and the comparatively loud fanbase.

* {{Moe}}: The foundation on which the game is built. Downplayed in the original arcade game, while the characters still acted moe, the developers deliberately avoided going for an art style that was [[PuniPlush too moe looking]] for fear of people being too embarrassed to be seen playing it.

** In terms of costumes, My Dear Vampire and Wired Marionette are insanely popular for cosplay. There's also Gothic Princess, which is merely a Cute & Girly recolor, only has simple solid colors, and has low stats, but became rather popular among players for the ElegantGotchicLolita vibe it gives off, and is featured very prominently in merch.
