Tokyo Idols also gives a necessary platform to journalist Minori Kitahara, a vocal critic of how the idol movement protects male fantasies and the objectification of women, for which she's received major backlash.

As interesting as the material may be, I would have much preferred a more well-rounded scrutinization of the factors that precipitated the industry's rise to prominence - and the damage it very likely does to those left in its wake.

I enjoyed it, but I did feel it was deliberately hinting at squeezy undertones that may not necessarily have been there. I also read the translation was a little off, making it appear some of the men were talking about developing bodies when they were actually talking about the music. I have to admit, I'm a 40 something female and I own a few jpop cds. I love the happiness and energy. I can fully get how some of these men interviewed with quite depressing lives, get into it and enjoy the dancing and the friendship with the girls, no matter how false and one sided. It would have been nice to see the female fans represented (aside from one seven year old girl, and I think that was in there to tut over as she reveals she wishes to be an idol when she grows up too). I'm not denying there's a few issues with portrayal of the girls, but I truly don't think it's the total evil this doco implies.

Tokyo Idols offers a complex look at a cultural phenomenon that could just as easily have been glossed over as another example of Japanese oddness.

Tokyo Idols is a fascinating look behind the curtain of the idol phenomenon in Japan. For all its faults, it works as an intriguing character study, giving its viewers a unique opportunity to observe this craze that has been sweeping over Asia.
