Love Live!: School Idol Project

School Idol Project was a really cute show about a group of girls who wanted to create a school idol group to save their school from closing. They had to overcome many challenges along the way, pushing the comfort levels of the members in the group. If there is really one reason you should watch this show though, it would definitely be for the music. The music in this show is amazing and extremely catchy! Don't be surprised if you find yourself adding all of the songs from this show to your playlist. The story isn't amazing, but it does have its moments. It takes a pretty good pace through the story and doesn't rush anything important like many other shows do near the end of the series. Overall, I'd give this show 9.5/10, mostly for the music.

I really enjoy this anime! Each character is elaborated, and has their own unique personality. The plot is quite cheerful, while adding in a wave of tears towards the end, right after you get attached to the characters. Very inspirational too! Definitely recommend for people who are feeling some drama and J-Pop.

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 ^_^

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.

Not only my favorite anime but also the only one i've watched more then once. I just love everything about it. The great characters, the awesome music and the non-singing soundtrack is great too. I really recommend this anime, the movie and the second series (Sunshine!!) to anyone who likes idol culture/music.
