Love Live! School Idol Project Discussion

[Maka]

I'm toooootally loving Aquours' singing voices. They're not as... idk, identifiable? as muse's, but if you listen to Bokura to no Live it took muse a LONG time to get there (plus we haven't heard any solos except for like a single line from Riko and Chika).

Hopefully Aquors doesn't run into the same problem where they have kick-butt solos and unit songs but only decent group songs.

Watching the PV I wish they had differentiated the art style from main LL more (eg 765 anime vs Cinderella girls anime) but it was cute. Very high animation quality, although the CG is still jarring.

[Nayre]

got the single now and I must say, I really like aquors... they harmonize much better than µ's voicewise
I maybe like them more than µ's (but now one can ever replace my maki umi rin Hanayo xDDD)
Can't wait for the anime now xDDDD

oh and here is the PV
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YnjlB5dG5Uc

and based on this pv (I didn't listen to the drama tracks yet) Riko seems to have transferred from µ's school since she wears the same uniform in the video

Dang, that got taken down so fast.  x. x

I need me some more Chika!  Gawd, she's such a goshdarn cutie!! XD  Can we like kidnap her and bring her over here to im@s?   I hope they don't make her too much like Yui Hirasa-- darnit I mean Honoka! XD  Though, her and Riko(shipping these 2 all the way!) are the only 2 that appeal to me so far, even though the latter reminds me of that one member from A-RISE, also her last name sounds like the hot sauce lol.  The rest still look pretty bland and uninspired... is what I also thought when I first saw the anime PV for CG, so let's see.

Wait a minute! The Muses will have their debut in Kohaku? Well, that's so nice!

BTW, I admit I didn't know about they singing at Music Japan. I didn't watched that day. (And there's even a day for iM@S Cinderella Girls) D=

Oh wow, that's pretty awesome.  They leveled up lol, congratz to them! XD

That stage tho looks almost exactly like the one in the OP.  Ahh, the feels... If only Eli was there, would've been perfect. :/

Yeah, CG was featured on MJ also a couple weeks back.  I think this was their first time ever?(for im@s)  Anyway, here's a good link for their performance.  Everything else on youtube is like edited in some way. ><

In the 13k million player notice, the said that SIF is gettin an arcade version.
I am kinda jealous xD

[Ivan The Mouse]

Does anyone here have that video of Muse performing Ready!! alongside 765ALLSTARS in a concert on something?

[Nayre]

Been curious about that crossover for a while as well.  The only thing I can find is the digest which has a short clip of READY!!  Nu's outfit. *o*  I particularly wanted to see how the im@s girls perform the LL songs tho lol.

I have the video somewhere on my pc I can look for it...

[Okayu]

[Kimiko]

wait, what? Final love live? that.. that is just a title right?
µ's aren't going to stop.. right?

Indeed. To think that they will sing there...

Yeah, I don't remember iM@S appearing on MJ. So it was their first time.

Well, the "Finalシングル" part  kinda make me think it is what I read in translator... :p

[Chihayaa]

"FINAL LOVE LIVE" definitely means Muse is coming to an end. It's really sad, but... I'd rather have them end on an amazing note rather than have Muse be milked to no end until it just declines. Aquors is already taking over and the movie pretty much tackles the fact that they can't be idols forever.

AND they made this live really hard to get into. You NEED to get the Limited Edition Blu-ray of the movie (¥9800) to get a lottery ticket for the rights to buy the ticket just like iM@S, otherwise you don't stand a chance of getting a seat. There's always the concert Blu-ray ;( I know I'll definitely be getting it.

Looks like Aquors will be taking over for another six lives, I suppose.

[Cael K.]

Think I saw an off hand comment from someone saying that Honoka's voice actress wanted a break of the forever variety, but it could just be whining. Either way, eh... things gotta change sometime, and this is probably for the better. You don't want to turn into the franchise equivalent of a shambing zombie, right?

... Although I can be cynical and say that they say this is the final concert, but they'll have a bonus concert and cameos every now and then.

... That's kinda evil, but at the very least, the number of people who could possibly lottery for a ticket will be kept a little small? I mean, it's a limited edition, they can't be like growing on trees or anything, right?

I could say that it would suck if Emi Nitta would just quit like that, but eh... You know. It's possible that she has health issues to deal with.

But yeah, better Cinderella Girls than Cash Cow. I mean, look at the other anime series. Not a pretty sight, right?

I find it really curious that the final live will take place on April 1st... lol but whatever. 

Dang, are they really that confident with Aqours?  I don't they they've even fully settled in with everyone yet and they're willing to just end u's before their new group has even shown that the franchise will be safe in their hands.  They've got balls of steel. XD

Ah, ty for sharing this.  I was watching some recent fripside lives and noticed she wasn't moving around as much.  I'm glad she's being taken care of.  It's her voice, I'm worried about sometimes tho.  She must strain herself quite a bit for her to sing some of those songs.  Very lovely voice tho.  Hopefully she'll be alright by the time the live comes along.
