![]() Yeah, that is me just kidding and being facetious at its absolute finest. After pondering it for a few minutes, I then realized that they were the perfect studio to take up this project, especially since it is intensely action-packed, heavily science fiction-based, and loaded with many mecha units flying around fighting each other in drawn out, over dramatized battles. I did a double take when I first noticed which studio was behind this anime…the Gundam studio, also known as Sunrise. Sunrise did a high-quality job at capturing the viewer's attention and pulling them into the story and its characters. I know I shared plenty of instances where I laughed with or at the characters or even cried along with them. Now as simplistic as the above might read, both Love Live! seasons are filled with ups and downs, good times and bad ones, successes and failures, laughing moments and crying moments for Muse and for the viewers watching this wonderful anime. By this time, the group’s goal to save their precious school is not the only goal that they have, but another major goal lingers in the foreground, and that’s the national competition, Love Live! That becomes the core story basis for the second season. In fact, it drives and pushes her even harder in that past the midway point of season one, Otonokizaka High’s school idol group, officially called µ's (or Muse) is a full nine members strong. She wants to keep the school open just as much if not more than Honoka, but she feels that a school idol group is a foolish way to go about it.Įventually, Honoka’s pure determination and willingness to succeed completely eclipses all of Eli’s attempts to stop her. Once the girls decide to go for it, they realize that not only is it very hard work, but that there are many obstacles in the way that they must overcome in order to fully realize Honoka’s dream, including extreme opposition from third year student council president, Eli Ayase. She and Umi are always taken along for the ride by Honoka, and this will eventually be no different. Fortunately for Honoka she has Kotori who’s always at her side waiting for the next great Honoka adventure to embark on. ![]() It is here she gets her ultimate idea that she believes can truly save the girls’ school, which is to form a school idol group.Īt first, Umi thinks Honoka is in way over her head since school idols work just as hard as the professionals do with their songwriting, singing, dancing, choreography, production, design, and anything and everything you can image as it relates to school idols. ![]() ![]() Unfortunately, they come up empty in every possible way, until one day Honoka visits the modern contemporary designed high school, UTX. She and her two best friends try to come up with ideas on how to increase prospective student enrollment applications to their school. ![]() For Honoka, it runs even deeper for her since her mother attended high school there as well. She makes it clear that the schools eminent doom does not seem right! After all, she absolutely loves Otonokizaka High, a school with a storied tradition and rich history. When the announcement is officially made, second year student, Honoka Kousaka, depressingly faints in the arms of her two best friends, Umi Sonoda and Kotori Minami. Our story begins at Otonokizaka High where the school is being threatened to close its doors to perspective students in the upcoming year, meaning that when the current freshman class graduates, the school will be closed permanently. It is only recently I have shown an interest in idol-themed anime series beginning with AKB0048, AKB0048: Next Stage, Idoly Pride, and now the Love Live! School Idol Project series with the latter being highly recommend to me by a few other fans of the genre. The individual season scores have been broken down and combined to create a single review score for both seasons. Before continuing, please note that this review covers both Love Live! School Idol Project and Love Live! School Idol Project 2nd Season. ![]()
