Really? They had to spend an entire episode convincing Honoka to enter the next Love Live? Also, I lol'd at the corny song at the start.

Maki is still the best girl.

Love the musical opening so much! The actual opening is also great.
Honoka as student council president? That surprised me a lot!

I'm looking forward to the following episodes :)

Honoka's behaviour was weird during the whole episode...

Anyways, this started, and that's the important part.

Eat your heard out Haruhi, Honoka is the new god lol.

Honestly though the people saying his episode was kind of disappointing are right. It just seemed too much of the childish enthusiasm and also the suppose Honoka drama seem even more pointless than the first season one.

I suppose they made her president for saving the school or something?
Poor Umi is gonna end up doing all the work really.

Anyway so they made another Love live in just six months? WTF that makes no sense. Such things go at least year by year but i guess they can be excused making it so because they take to account school years etc since it's a contest for school idols.

Btw am kind of disappointed of what i heard about the contest. I like A-Rise and i don't want to see them out of it from the preliminaries.

I'm so glad this show is back I love it! I was sad when the first season finished airing, I didn't think there would be another season.

I was confused about something in this episode though, they all looked really surprised about there being another Love Live, but I thought in the first season (I rewatched it recently because of the season 2 airing this season, so I remember this) they said something about being able to enter next time, so I thought it was weird that they were all surprised. Anyway I'm glad they get to do the Love Live it was kinda anticlimactic that they didn't get to do it in the first season.

Love Live! <3


Maybe it's a yearly thing, it just so happened that they're doing it the second time for the same year, which surprised them.


Yeah that probably the explanation here.

So the clumsiest airhead, who is the worst possible candidate for student council presidency, got the position. Who in their right mind would think this is a good idea...
One thing I found interesting was that even though lately there are quite a few idol and music-oriented shows, this one actually had a musical number to it. Quite ironic how it's a rarity.
Majority of the first episode is focused on getting the protagonist to give a shit about the plot, I'm in for a treat, I can tell. 2/5.
Here's hoping there'll be plenty of focus on Umi, Mako, Nozomi and only the absolute bare minimum of Nico, still so freaking obnoxious...

You could remove Kotori from the show and it wouldn't change a single bit. She added completely nothing to this anime, save for the fucking hideous drama scenes in s1.

Outgoing, fun-loving character somehow ends up as a leader and can tell the heavens to stop raining just because she wants to. Yep, Honoka definitely has Haki powers.


A little annoyed at the drama (again? really?) but if the pacing of the rest of the show is like the first season's middle episodes this should be great.

I don't get why Honoka was resisting for so long (guess she really reevaluted her leader skills after all) but in the end they set the goal for this series pretty high. I wonder what problems there will be on the way.

But the most important thing here is that - Live Live! is back!

Well, it's sad that three of nine members gotta leave at the end Live Live but that's life... or will they be dancing(stay) together even after that? Another challenge/season to became professional singers? But long into future and it remains to be seen.

Was that really the best choice for student president?
Anyways, I dunno about the passing, it started to be a little drama and then it suddenly ended.
Well, at least we know what to expect on the last episode.

The opening was so Disney-esque I flipped the hell out laughing. Then when Honoka shouted for the rain to stop, it stopped like magic. And then the horse neighed too, holy crap. This is gold.

This show is best as a comedy, but its desperately trying to be dramatic as well. I'm not sure how to feel about it all, but whatever works I guess.

Did they not move up a year? Or did Eri just quit bring president mid-year and now Honoka is president (which does not fit her character at all).

Wasn't a fan of this episode, just felt like more pointless drama. More singing less drama>

-I'm liking the increased visibility of μ's first fans already, MCing the speech at the beginning. Honoka becoming student pres was kind of fitting
-I was wondering where Honoka was in that one scene where μ's discovered the second Love Live competition, and the new format actually seems more interesting (from a viewing standpoint) than the first one.
-For a while in the middle, things felt really strange, as if the last few episodes of the first season didn't actually happen. The other members of μ's were all surprised that Honoka didn't want to compete but she made it pretty clear that that wasn't the goal. This time her motivation to excel as idols wasn't a desire to sing but an attempt to be considerate of the third-years. I like the new reason a lot better.
-Glad to see Honkers back to her ambitious, S1E1 self at the end. I also particularly enjoyed the use of Susume→Tomorrow to snap Honoka back to her senses since it was the song that basically started it all.

As a start, it is really promising, does not lack sympathy and narrative, albeit sugary, it is also a bit serious in certain narrative passages. Funny and surreal the beginning, it seemed an American musical, LOL!
The problem is that it's all true, oh God! Honoka at the head of the student council, ASD!
Drawings and animations, very good, ditto the OST. It starts!

I've been playing LLSIF for a year and decided to watch the first season. And here I am now. Hope it'll be even better than the last one!

So Honoka became the student council president and found out about the second Love Live but didn't want to join. Fortunately we have Nico to change her mind. But that trip was way too predictable lol. And wow, I didn't know Honoka had the power to stop rain. I found that really amusing haha.

Decent episode. I'm glad they're going to join Love Live, but now they have to face against A-RISE. Can't wait for their performances!

Another plot hole. Why didn't Honoka use that power in S1 episode 11? Instead she got herself a cold, ruined the rooftop performance, and caused the group to miss the first Love Live. Lucky for her the rest of the girls are braindead and can't put two and two together.

Just when I thought that my passion for School Idols was waning, it exploded like a burst of flames. Seeing the girls suddenly lifted up my spirits and I can't stop smiling for some reason ♥

Nico Nico Nii~ The music's nice, the drama made me tear up like it did to me at almost every episode of season 1, and the CG really improved! I have a feeling that this will earn a 10 from me this time lmao

The 3rd years will be graduating and Honoka's the new president... Honky can control the weather too wao

How do schools work in Japan? Eli quit her position as pres after winter break or something or what? That confused me a lot

I LOVED THIS EPISODE. I wasn't expecting to like LL! this much. They are all back... Of course Honoka would be eating peacefully under a tree.

I might be so fuckin late. But here i am finally had a chance to stay true on my first purposes to enjoying the beauty of the animation of Japan. Honoka still energetic as she was before. Even if there was a little mental breakdown of mood on her ego. I knew that was a hard decision. She still had a feeling afterall. In the end she was just her usual personality. Ah, so relieved with that sunshine in the end! Glad to seeing everyone just as the same as before. Nico match, tho. She kept adorable as she was! So, even if i already get some spoiler that scattered on the internet about μ's ending. I think it never hurts for me to feel the warmth of their daily life again as a group of an idol school on the love live! stage of the second parts. Was they really won that big tournament? Lemme just finished what i left of before!
