>>2965239For me, I had little to no idea about the Idolm@ster overall, but I had heard of it and heard a lot of great things about it. Along with that, I'm a musician myself, so I decided to watch the anime on Crunchyroll. Very quickly, I began to really take a liking to a lot of the characters, but Makoto always stuck out that much more to me. I just really like her personality and I found her to be very, very cute in both the way she looked and acted. She just seems like that kind of girl you can watch a hardcore action movie with and then fall asleep snuggling with right afterwards and that's something that really draws me in. Plus, she's a musician, so bonus points!
Either way, my list of favorite characters from the series fluctuates quite a bit every so often depending on how I'm feeling, but she's one of the two characters that has not moved from her position since the beginning. I just can't stop loving her!!
