Love Live!: School Idol Project

I started watching this show as a joke not really understanding why these types of shows are so popular in Japan right now.. well now I can totally see why, this show is full of fun interesting characters, good music, and decent enough plot.

The first anime show i've ever watched (not counting Pokémon during my chilhood) and i loved it! The characters are all cute and the songs are 10/10! Especially Snow Halation! I'm gonna rewatch it soon ^_^

One of the most dynamic slice of life/idol anime that I've seen! Definitely my most favorite entry in the Love Live franchise. Truly an amazing series with so many fun and memorable characters!

This was the first of several Love Live! TV series and the inspiration for massively popular world idol tours, movies, music albums, and idol related figurines, posters, and products. Promoters and merchandisers have made loads of money from the idols, but that does not change the fact that they are very entertaining. I suspect this show had some inspiration from the series K-On!

Each of the Love Live series is good enough that any one could become your favorite. This original one is my favorite because of the characters and their stories. (However, there are more musical performances in Love Live! Sunshine!) On YouTube you can find several good English covers of the Japanese songs and great samples of the Love Live! World Tours.

The story shows that hard work and determination are necessary, yet do not guarantee success! There are many others out there competing against you, so all you can do is try and find pride in doing your best. Working together and building friendships are a guaranteed reward, but if you can win, then that will be a bonus.

While the show has cute girls in short skirts, it is not focused on boobs and butts or sexual innuendo like many anime. Kids and adults can both enjoy the energy, enthusiasm, dancing and music.

Definitely my favorite anime! I enjoyed it a lot and I'm so happy there are no negative reviews yet! This is also the only anime I've watched more than once. So there's that! The songs are amazing, all the characters are great, the plot is decent, etc.

And all the songs that are in this anime aren't even half of what there is out of the anime! There are also subunits outside of it which almost never appear here and there's only a slight reference in S2. It'll have you bawling at the end once you get attached to the characters. There's also games! There's a new PS4 game coming out soon too! Totally worth checking out! Also, try to look at the franchise outside the anime and give Sunshine!! a try as well. I personally like Aqours' leader more. Don't forget to watch the movie before watching SS!! though!
