| Nico's imouto good lord. The cuteness just tripled... and LOL @ Muse being her backup dancers xDD |
 |
| I actually believed that dream for a sec, and I was like wait... it's only episode 4 this can't be right |
| Nico's sibling where cute. Good episode, it was the kind of episode that lacked on the previous season. |
| It's like the creaters knew who the most popular Love Live character was or something. Actually, I was almost concerned with how Nico was going to be the first character to have a solo concert, but then I was surprised when it wasn't shown. I get that she had focus for the ending theme, but I'm still not sure what this show was trying to do. I'm probably thinking too much on this though. |
| This was an AMAZING episode if your a fan of Nico. (well it's good even if you aren't :P) At the beginning i got tricked for a second... -sigh- i fell for their "trap" Both Eli's Cellphone scene and Umi Confronting Nico made me laugh quite a bit. I kinda wish they did do a Solo with Nico but i'm not surprised that they didn't go through with it. |
| Argue? Nah Too lazy For That... Are You Ready!~Gulcasa |
| Nico is easily my favorite. All of her episodes always make me laugh but then give me heavy unexpected feels. And I love how the show can demonstrate how someone so prideful is also someone who deserves a lot of sympathy. She really has come a long way. |
| Nico's kinda starting to get on my nerves now. I only seem to like her when the others poke fun at her cos her personality is actually pretty terrible. From starting out as an idol elitist in the first season saying that the rest of them suck cos they don't have personas to getting off on being an arrogant bitch and saying that she's better than all of the rest by calling them background dancers. And then she does a completely 180 in about 2 minutes cos the plot called for it. Long story short, this series is shit at "character development" and "drama". |

| That dream tricked me, that was some Gintama-tier trolling right there! That had me laughing so much, most I've laughed in Love Live! so far! I have a lot more respect for Nico after this episode. Also, Nico's brother is so dopey xD |
 |
| -This was already 5/5 episode for me only 1 minute and 40 seconds in. The timing and delivery on the punchline was absolutely perfect. -"The final round of preliminaries will be held in December" oh boy oh boy oh boy oh boy oh boy does this mean what I think it means? If it does, I will be wholeheartedly looking forward to that shit. -In response to the Niku Nico / 2525 pun I will say that Honoka's carrying this episode pretty hard so far -That look Nico gives to the rest of μ's when she discovers them outside the supermarket seemed jam-packed with a feeling of betrayal and is actually one of the more expressive things I've seen in this show. -Kokoro is adorable, and she's 10x as adorable when she does the Nico nico nii thing -μ's Whack-a-Mole -Wow, they even included a male character with a voice. They sure are going all out with this episode. -Nozomi on point with the Death card -Loved the flashbacks to Nico's first year since her recruitment arc was easily my favorite from the first season -Nico solo'd the ED and caught the feather at the end So yeah this is my favorite second season episode so far |

They totally nailed the comedy and character development this episode and I don't even like Nico that much since her snobbish attitude annoys me (unlike Eli who changed in the end, but maybe Nico will do the same). THIS is quality stuff. |
| The statement below is true. The statement above is false. |
| Everything about this episode was really great. |
| It would come to learn more about the girls, it was a necessary step, and I think it liked to many to know one of the most special girls in the group. Narration well managed at the comedy and retrospective level. Drawings, animations and scenarios, excellent. Mutant Girls? XD |
 |
| So the resignation letters from the last preview were just part of a flashback... The writers like to mess with us! They did it again at this episode's start. Silly Honker's dream really got me for an instant! The part with the "miiiii"... "miuuuuuuu"... "-su!" was cute, especially Hanayo! I liked how the almost forgot Niko again for the practice and how they pictured her work in the supermarket "niku niko nii" *badum tss* Nozomi being unable to chase Niko was funny. They used poor Rin instead. xD Niko's imoutos were cute! Her otouto reminded me of Boo-chan, from Crayon Shin-chan. μ's custom whack-a-mole game was also funny. Niko's room is a bit creepy, but the modified posters were fun. Niko has legendary Photoshop skillz! Nozomi's death card! omg poor Niko. Angry Umi was scary, too! Don't you dare call her a "background dancer"! I liked how Honoka brought Niko's siblings to school. If the practice can't go to Niko's home, Niko's home will come to the practice! This was a nice episode. Everything went better than expected and we had lots of character development. |
 |
| Great ep. I love how they focused on Nico this episode. |
 “Even if the attention isn’t forever, I’ll keep singing.” |
| Ah! Nico is best girl so this episode will remain my favorite~ |
 |
| Nico-nico-nii~! Nico's siblings are cute. The beginning of the episode had me fooled. |
 |
| Is it wrong if I cried to this episode? And I'm a guy too. Have I gone soft? I just think the ending of this episode is so heartwarming. |
 |
| They pass after dream trolling by honoka. Nico development with her siblings, super idol nico retiring to join muse where she can shine even better :'( :'( |
 |
| Honoka's dream is so almost on point that it's eerie lol. I loved the gags in this episode like Nozomi flashing the Death tarot card at Nico and her not fitting in between the trucks, making her force Rin to do it instead. Since they're all voiced by Soramaru and look very much like each other, it's pretty plausible that they're the product of idol-cell mitosis. The lengths Nico went to brainwash them with the Nico Smile was hilarious at best. Hearing Nico Nico Nii almost every day for 3 years will change a person y'know. Nico's backstory was heartbreaking and the effort u's did just for her made me tear up outta joy this time. Didn't get to see it animated but her singing was great~ |
 |
| A whole new start for Nico! Good for her |
 |
| Honoka was such a troll in the beginning 😂 This was nice development for Nico. Points for her :) |
| What did they do to Nikos brother? XD She has cute siblings, tho. And really nice episode again and heartwearming to boot. The pressure of keeping up appearance in front of her younger siblings while acting as some kind of role model, I can't dislike Niko for what she did. |
One Piece episode 914 & 915 & 1027 were a mistake and 957 brought the salvation - FMmatron |
| Lmaooo, that dream man. I wanted to punch Honoka so bad, why did she mess around with us that way?? And Umi was left alone there, covering her ears... Again with pervy jokes lol. Don't diss best girl Rin!!! Crap, I couldn't imagine this, but Nico's sugary factor was tenfolded this episode. I'm kinda sick. |
 |
| The announcement of the final 4 sequence was so hilarious. I knew exactly the first one was not real at all. Its just, Honoka-chan's dream! The prank style actually just so obvious. But, somehow, i had a little shocked in the first two seconds on that segment. Lol. Ofc they were all passed the challenge and moved on to the final 4 to decided the only one contestant to move to the main stages of Love Live! What else? The second sequences were actually served as their another daily routines. However, they needed to unpack Nico's struggle first. Its about her cute little sisters and brother. Her background as the true maniac of idol, her true dream, not intentionally just gave such a false hopes to her siblings. She just did not want to make them sad with the continuations of her lies. So, yeah, her behaviour on this episode indeed understandable. Fortunately, Honoka-chan's brilliant idea that gave her an opportunity to spoke the truth, and continued the path of victory for the Muse group! Lets do it, girl! NICO NICO NII~~~ No actual closing single sang performance by her. I am a bit sad about that :( If only the ED was just all about Nico. Well, this is about muse group not just Nico, so, yeah its happening. Lmao. At least the oneself that voiced the ED soundtrack was Nico, there. So, not much the sadness i feel afterall! |

I was reading this thread and beginning to feel out of place since most of these people were praising her and I was sitting here with a bunch of question marks over my head-- Honestly, I don't get the appeal of people like her and that "Nico Nico Ni" is killing my ears But still I love this show despite all that. Umi, Maki and Eli make up for it |
 |
| So muse were background dancers the entire time... we've been bamboozled |
 |
| Nico overload. That was a cute episode. I thought that dream was true. xD I'm glad they are going to the preliminaries. :) |
 |
| How can I not accept the fluffiness in this show? Nico was amazing this whole episode |
   |
| Loved this episode! Nico Nico niiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii . This anime is a treasure <3 i love all the girls so much :') and i miss them every day of my life <3 . |
| Not the biggest fan of Nico but rlly liked this episode! I wish we got to see Nico's solo performance instead of it just being her singing the ending, but whatever waiting for a Rin centered episode now :3 |
| Cuteness overload with Nico-chans siblings! Avoiding paparazzo like a pro, that one! Nozomi isn't built for cramped spaces, that's for sure. XD I'm a little bothered by the fact that everyone just considers it their business what Nico does with her private time. But hey, friendship and bonding and what-not. Girls in suits next episode. Nice! |
 |
| Nico's background character/information has been told this episode. Her family is so adorable. The big sister is trying her best for the family and it is cute and inspiring to see at the same time. No wonder she is the #1 Super Idol in this series haha! Also, the other u's members being a backup dancer joke is so funny! >w< |
