Sumire can cook!!!. Poor Keke... 😂, she was trying to cook her native Chinese food, but Sumire, who is Japanese, is better at cooking Chinese food than her.
Kanon and Chisato are truly good friends. They are always supporting each other since they were young. I really love their friendship. Kanon was backed to Tokyo to support Chisato and back to Kozushima together with her on the same day. The only way to doing this possible is by using an airplane which she needs to spend a lot of money on the tickets. However, maybe it is worth enough to spend. At least, Chisato won the competition and finally joins the school idol. 🎉🎉🎉🎉

more SumiKeke goofiness is appreciated it. Kanon is anti-bully ranger. its nice to see chii-chan's backstory tho and how it connects with Kanon. the song is a bop and quite a visual treat. i like how their costumes are sunnyPa inspired considering where they are. Ren had a bunch of cute and interesting reactions.

A heartwarming backstory. Chisato and Kanon have been such a good friends for a long time.

Poor Keke. xD I can't get enough of her. She's so cute and funny.

Sumire has some awesome cooking skills. It's amusing how she can cook Chinese food better than Keke.

Beautiful full moon.

I liked how colorful their performance looked.

That was honestly, the best written childhood friend relationship out of all the other LLs. I also really loved how we got to see a different side of Ren, really cute. Now we have 4/5 of the group and I’m curious on how they’ll get Ren to join them

Interesting how they changed the instrumental some in the ending theme, and the vocals a bit, I think? At least the first line, there are two girls singing (I'm assuming Kanon and Chisato)

Edit: Wow, it took me until now to realize they shuffle around the parts of the ending theme each time

Those delays were a pain for watching this anime that Im really invest.

Kanon fallen to second place for now, after this episode showing how Chisato is hotblooded about be the best and returning the favor.

Keke doesn't have stamina, cant cook, but is a great lighting technician.


Now we know for sure the greetings, I wonder if I should: Sup' or Pa. For now I feel "Pa" is better.

I was worried about how the show was going to deal with Ren up until this episode. This side of her was pretty down to earth and believable. I wonder if Chi is going to play a bigger role than Kanon into getting Ren to join the group now... probably not, but that would be great.

Ren doesn't like the school idol, but she doesn't hate it from deep down inside. She even asked about Kanon in this episode.
In my opinion, she got some trauma or some misunderstood about school idol in the past which make her hates it, or it could be pressure from her family. Which we will know about it soon. Kanon and Chisato might be the ones who help her to overcome this problem.

Nice character arc for Chisato this episode. Her friendship with Kanon, where they both do the things the other can't, was really sweet even if that did lead to some complicated feelings for Chii to work through in the present. I did really like that she was very clearly planning to join the group if she won, even if Kanon wasn't going to ask. I also liked that we got to see a different side of Ren this week, and from that my gut feeling is Chii is going to be pivotal in Ren eventually joining the group.

Also, Ren was totally the ringleader of that trio bullying Chii at the start of the episode, wasn't she? No way they'd make that kid's character design so similar if that wasn't the case. I wonder if either of them remember her role in that situation?

didn't notice during my first watch, but similarity is real. At least, bullying shown in the Love Live franchise is never too harsh at least, remembering also Rin flashbacks from SIP.

Chisato and Kanon's friendship is sweet. Keke's cooking was probably on the same level as Akane Tendo's, but luckily we didn't watch the tasting reactions because Sumire is good. Ren seems more mellowed out, so, can she join next week already?

Ahhhhhh this episode was soo good. The backstory of Chisato and Kanon was great, they were ADORABLE. Liked how Kanon came to see Chisato before her contest because Kanon thought she were uneasy about something. I loved their conversation. I liked their performance as well.

Agree! I’m glad we finally got to see her being nice. It seemed like she was also worried about Kanon and the others, which is as well, nice to hear. I feel like both of them might be the ones convincing Ren, i’m so interested in her backstory

I doubt that girl was Ren. It would’ve been specified in the beginning. If it was her, Ren would’ve easily known who Chisato was because she still has the same hair. Also, the little girl and Ren don’t share the same VA, so that also completely debunks that “theory”

Solid episode. Chii-chan is cute

The story was OK, but the voice acting and the animation stood out. Despite being newbies, the VAs continue to sound solid. Chii-chan crying as a little girl was well done.

Of course, the dance CG animation was perfect. Can't beat Sunrise when it comes to that.

This episode has apparently shown that Ren was a bully to Chisato by initially refusing to give back her ribbon. Then Kanon there to save Chisato's day. I have to say they all looked super cute when they were little. Despite being shown as a bully during her childhood, I'm starting to like Ren more, as it's refreshing to see her becoming very humble to Chisato. I'll be happy if she joins Liella! very soon. Also, I didn't expect Sumire to be that good of a cook like You Watanabe.



Lastly, I really like Sunny Passion, the nicest 'rival' duo in Love Live! Yuna looks especially nice and cute!

Chi-chan has won her dance performance with her school enrolment on the line! Too bad we didn't get to see her actual dance though. The idol performance was ok; whilst I liked the more tropical feel of the song, there was too much CG dancing and the CG balloons really stood out. The vocals were nice.

Great episode again.

Loving the rivalry between Sumire and Keke. Their dynamic is great and their antics are always funny.

Kanon and Chisato's friendship is heartwarming, loved the moment Kanon went back to meet her right before Chisato's contest. :)

Performance was great but I thought that some of the outfits this episode were pretty let's say 'daring'. xD

Love Live! Superstar!! Episode 6: The Dream I Dreamed

Finally! The 2week drought is over since no more Olympics nor Paralympics. We got another great episode with a banger summer festival vibe song

Chii-chan arc really fleshed out it is really good to see why Chii-chan encounters Kanon-chan as we can see, Chii-chan is bullied because she is a lonely person and only Kanon-chan approach her and protect her. Should we called Kanon-chan as a "anti bully Kanon"?

But we go to SumiKeke dynamics it's really good tbh they intend to do head-to-head rather than one-sided comedic duo like NicoMaki also SunnyPa is really teasing us again guess we have to wait their song and performance? Who knows.

Then, A cute Ren-chan appearance tbh. Ren-chan is being dork and tsuntsun in this episode, she change her heart now? Who knows.

Then we go back to Chii-chan it seems Chii-chan is being reasonable why she did not join Kanon because if she fails she didn't join to school idol and go to abroad just to improve her dance and her drive force to go dancing because Kanon-chan can't dance and Chii-chan is do it not because she wanted Kanon-chan to impress her but to inspire her. The whole sequence was pretty wholesome and yet the childhood story is pretty good it reminds me of HonoKoto situation and ChikaYou situation

Animation for Tokonatsu Sunshine I recently read some tweet from @yuyucow that the 2D dance is directing by 3 as in 3 directors and it was appealing to eyes. Solid episode.
10/10

Next episode is Ren arc and it's Student Council selection and Sumire seems would join the Student Council? We will find out on Sunday!

Great episode, even though I felt Chi-chan's integration to the school idols group went as fast as light. She was just about to enter a contest she ended up winning, without us having a single glimpse of this event

Then I blinked and there were 4 members in this group, hum. I guess it'll be time for Ren to join the group as well, in a few episodes

Nice, another background story from Kanon and Chisato. Since Chisato is being bullied from the past and Kanon saving her, I assume Kanon is more like an older sister for Chisato and Chisato wanting to help Kanon in her weaknesses since then but can't due to her lack of strength. This is a wonderful way to show Chisato's character.

Keke that has no energy earlier was charged and motivated just by watching SunnyPassion's practice... lol xd

Finally, Ren is showing her worried personality and true self little by little. Is she a tsundere...?! XD and the letter of transfer. I assume Chisato is going full throttle to join to Kanon's side. As Ren became surprised after she saw the letter, I wonder what Ren's next move should be...?!

Chisato and Kanon have lingering thoughts. What could it be? Could it be that Chisato is holding back her feelings of wanting to ask Kanon for her to join their group and Kanon hesitating to ask Chisato to invite her as well. I hope they can surpass that hurdle very soon!

Ren's curiousity is getting out of hand about the letter that Chisato holds. What could she be planning?! hahaha, Ren is so cute. I hope Ren can be true to herself one of these episodes. I see a glimmer of hope!

Finally, this is what I've been waiting for. Chisato and Kanon having a heart to heart talk about them. Now this is a bonafied true pure friendship!!! >.<

I'm glad they're together on the same group and what's more, the same stage!

Now we need Ren's story next episode! I can't wait!

It's not that I dislike this genre but... to add unnecessary fan services to/in/for heroines
and ultimately destroys her character and personality; their purity tarnished because of it,
is the only thing I hope to not happen to them. For that sole purity is my fan service.

The thing i expected Chisato to be bullied for is that she looks to have albinism. I wonder why that isn't addressed at all. Her dance at the competition was obviously too costly to animate, but it is still a shame it wasn't shown. The song at the end was surprisingly above average.
