Aikatsu - The Story of the Idols at Starlight Academy, an Idol school where the best of the best go to hone their Aikatsu, Aidoru Katsudou, or more simply their Idol Activities. The story begins with Hoshimiya Ichigo, a normal girl who wants nothing more than to succeed her mother's Bento shop. But, upon witnessing Top Idol Kanzaki Mizuki in concert, her life is changed forever. She and her best friend Kiriya Aoi successfully transfer to Starlight and a legend begins. (Subs complete)

Aikatsu Stars - The successor to Aikatsu, taking place in a brand new setting. You don't have to watch the original to get on board! Nijino Yume is our new main character. She's a quirky one with a lot of spirit, but she's not exactly a super star through the gates either. Her dream is to become a top Idol like her... idol, Shritori Hime and after watching a concert Yume and her best friend Koharu apply, and are accepted into Four Star Academy, home of the Top Idols, (Including Hime) S4. A brand new Aikatsu Story begins! (Ongoing)

Pretty Rhythm: Aurora Dream - The first series of the Pretty Rhythm franchise. Harune Aira is a girl who absolutely loves clothes. In fact, they speak right back to her. Otherwise, she's an extremely clumsy girl, and no one that would know her would imagine she'd ever be able to take part in a Prism Show, a concert held on an Ice Rink involving Dancing, singing, advanced skating, and the expression of the Heart known as a Prism Jump. Fate though always like to crack jokes and Aira is pushed into performing in the place of the missing Idol Takamine Mion. She soon meets a passionate girl named Amamiya Rhythm who will stop at almost nothing to become a Prism Star for her own reasons. (Subs complete)

Pretty Rhythm: Dear My Future - The direct sequel of Aurora Dream follows Ageha Mia in her quest to become the Prism Queen. Mia is an extremely driven individual who is partnered with Miyama Reina, Shijimi Karin, and Oorumi Ayumi and form the unit: Prizmmy☆. Of course a lot of excess baggage left over from Aurora Dream rears its extremely ugly head, so a lot of time to deal with that is in this story and thus you probably shouldn't start with Dear My Future. (Subs Complete)

Pretty Rhythm: Rainbow Live - The story of Ayase Naru who is an adorable girl with an extremely happy personality. Her school has a work experience program and fate lead her to the doors of trying out to become the Manager of Prism Stone.

Naru has the ability to see the colors of music and joined by the sweets loving Fukuhara Ann, and the hard to approach but very stylish, Suzuno "Cross" Ito, Naru begins her journey into management, Prism Shows, and self-discovery. This series is not related to the Previous two, but there are throwbacks to catch. Still, it's perfectly acceptable to watch this as a stand alone. With the recent Movie Sequel, King of Prism, you might want to watch this first to catch up! (Subs Complete)

Pripara - A spinoff to the Pretty Rhythm franchise. Where Pretty Rhythm tries to keep everything grounded, Pripara will go off in several different directions.

Dragon Collection - DraColle is your normal Children's Card Game Adaptation. Yes it's for little boys, but it's the sort little girls can appreciate! The reason it's on this list is because it's the second appearance of Hoshimiya Ichigo's VA Sumire Morohoshi.
