Okay, so if I understood you, you want me to write my opinions on every Aikatsu idol in the franchise.

I really hope that's what you asked me to do because I'd hate to think I wasted my time XD

~Original~

Ichigo - The whole series I had a love-hate relationship with her. When I began the series I liked her the most out of the main trio until Yurika and the others began showing up. Then I hated her after I ended up thinking she was a Mary-sue, but I got over it by Season 3 and came to just enjoy her. Now that I saw Yume in Aistars though, I heavily regretted my attitude.

Aoi - For a cool type she's very peppy, which I enjoyed seeing. I was glad she wasn't a typical shy or stoic blue girl like I expected.

Ran - I like her but I never had much of an opinion because she didn't seem to really have much going for her like all the others.

Otome - I waver between liking her and finding her annoying...

Yurika-sama - My favorite of the original series, and probably entire franchise. I adored everything about her~

Mizuki - At first I didn't have much of an opinion towards her, but I quickly ended up liking her. I don't like her with Mikuru though, I'd rather see her with Yurika and Kaede, or even Ichigo.

Kaede - Same as above, I came around to really really like her when I witnessed her interactions with Yurika.

Sakura - Not much opinion, but I love her brand.

Seira - I took to her quickly because I loved her hair and brand, and we both love kitties, rock music, and own a guitar as an instrument (I don't play it much these days though)

Ki - She's so adorable! I was always so surprised she wasn't that popular because I've seen in other series the girls like her were pretty well liked.

Maria - She's so cute~ but I felt like out of the four Dream Academy girls she never had much going on for her.

Sora - I like her hair, and I'm a Libra so I had a soft spot for her brand, even if it wasn't something I'd wear.

Mikuru - Before seeing her in the anime I didn't dislike her, but she really ticked me off throughout her appearances and the remarks she made, so I couldn't get over that and pretty much detest her. Even now I don't like her, while I managed to overcome my issues with Ichigo and (a little bit) Yume.

Hikari - I wish she had become a main, I thought she was so cute and really would have liked to see her more often. I felt like she was a little ripped off.

Shion - I was so happy when she finally got a chance to perform!

Akari - She is very precious to me and I admire her greatly for being able to overcome everything like she did.

Sumire - I adored Sumire at first, even if I didn't like that she was replacing Yurika-sama a bit, but around season 4 I began to dislike her. All of her fans whining got on my nerves at this point, and a lot of times I tend to turn against things when they gain a lot of popularity.

Hinaki - She reminded me of a Kaede x Aoi hybrid with Ki's color scheme. I liked her way more than I thought I would.

Juri - She was pretty much what everyone expected, but I really like her.

Madoka - She's so cute and fluffy! She's my second or third favorite original Aikatsu Idol. I wish I could have seen her interact with Laura from AiStars. They looked like they could have been twins~

Rin - I loved watching her because of all her energy.

Kokone - I loved her swirly ponytail. She wasn't really like what I had been expecting when I first saw her, so she annoyed me a little at first. But I actually ended up liking her a bit.

Miyabi -  To me she was really plain, but I did like her little quirks.

Nono - I really liked her, and I especially adore her shared brand with Lisa. I really wish they had come in sooner so that I had more time to enjoy them.

Lisa - As a sexy-type I liked seeing her be shy and cute.

Nina  - I didn't have much opinion, but I liked her hair and those ears she wore.

Minami, Hazuki, Monica - I wish the series had lasted longer so that we could have gotten to know these other idols instead of them being cameos.

Tsubaki - I loved her, I was sad she didn't get to become a main either. If the series had lasted another season I could have seen her, or Noelle becoming the main.

~Stars~

Yume - Probably the only main idol I will hate in this franchise. I loved Yume at first but she instantly went into Mary-sue territory for me, and considering how much of a pain she became towards Laura, my favorite character, I just couldn't stand her and the series became painful to watch so I didn't finish it for a long while. I can BARELY tolerate her now though. I do like her singing voice though, and I love her brand.

Hime - I love her soft princess image. Favorite original S4 idol.

Laura - My favorite character in stars overall. I was really bitter over how she got treated a times.

Tsubasa - I like her design but I couldn't stop thinking of her as an Ichigo x Seira mix, even if she doesn't exactly have much in common with Ichigo.

Yuzu  - I love her energy, but she was in the middle of my rankings. I didn't LOVE her, but I didn't hate or dislike her.

Yozora - I had no real opinions of her because she came off as being a gentle/plain Ran to me.

Ako - Yurika x Kaede mix with added kitty appeal. She was perfect for me and I was rooting for her and Kanata the whole time.

Koharu - I loved her soft appearance and how it contrasted her sexy-type.

Mahiru - I thought I wouldn't like her since she resembles Mikuru a bit, but I ended up enjoying her. Again not high on my list.

Lilie - Initially I loved her, but she began to come off as being pretty cliche and I moved on.

Kirara - She's like a fluffy, cute-type Nina.

Elza - She made me think of Mizuki + Laura combined in terms of looks. She was very mean at first but I was waiting for an antagonist Idol and really enjoyed her. I'm glad she softened up though.

Rei  - I couldn't help but love her when I saw how much she resembles Hibiki from PriPara.

Aria - I love her flower theme and hair. She's so adorable~

~Friends~

Aine - Unlike Ichigo and Yume who I started off loving, then hated, and went back to liking (Ichigo at least) I've always liked Aine. I love her hair, and especially her brand.

Mio - She's cute when she gets flustered but I don't think much about her since she seems generic cool type

Maika - I love her pretty hair~ She's a bit generic sexy to me, but I still really like her for some reason.

Emma - I've been WAITING for an idol with massively long pigtails in Aikatsu to show up, so I got really excited. I like her big-sister nature and she kind of reminds me of cute version of Yuzu.

Mirai - I took an instant liking to her out of bias because she kind of looks a little itty-bitty like me, but I actually like her for who she is too. I love her fluffy cute styling and brand, I was bummed she wasn't actually a cute type.

Karen - At first she looked like a Hime rip-off and I felt neutral about her. I still do, but I don't hate her.

Coco - She's so cute, and right away I thought she was an Artificial Human type. I was happy I was right, I would have loved to see her and Nana together as a duo in the anime.

Sakuya - I thought she was a Lilie rip off but I like her a lot more.

Kaguya - I was super-excited to see twin idols because like long pigtails I've been WAITING for this. I wish she had been a cute or sexy type to contrast Sakuya, and I adore her more than her sister.

Marin  - She reminds me a lot of Akari and is very fluffy looking, even if she's kind of rude. I like her brand a lot.

Rinna - No real opinion. I like her rare hair color though.
