* Based on the 4-koma manga by Akane, serialised in Dengeki Maou; the manga is itself a spin-off of The Idolmaster, a raising simulation and rhythm game by Bandai Namco Games.

The overly active daily lives of 765Pro's idols become even more frantic when the overly cute beings called Puchidolls — somewhat resembling their idols in looks and in character — show up at the studio, one by one.

Note: The Director's Cut versions (episodes S1 to S23) were released on the same media as the BD/DVD release of main series. The Director's Cut version is a condensed telling of the original series, available exclusively on BD/DVD at the time of release.
The Director's Cuts were released as follows:
BD/DVD Vol. 01: Ep 01-07
BD/DVD Vol. 02: Ep 08-15
BD/DVD Vol. 03: Ep 16-23
