| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- Very cool episode, the moment where she record her friend with her phone was very cute at then end ! |
 |
| This second episode is kinda cute, even with the idols talking about cuteness. That Kasumi girl might be a bit sensitive though, at least compared to some of the other cast. Ayumu also needs to be more confident in herself if she wants to be idol at this school. |
 |
| So sweet that it hurts! My respect for Ayumu, who survives a full treatment of Kasumi! At least, Kasumi recognizes herself, what she is doing. But it would be very understandable, if Ayumu had ran away. |
 |
| So conflicting ideals is the reason why the club broke apart basically? Makes sense, I'm sure we'll find them working that out as the show goes along. Nice ep. |
| I find it really nice that Kasumin realize what she just did was what she hated others do to her by herself. I'm curious on how it will play out from here on, especially recruiting new members |
| A certain person lurking here |
| Very nice episode again. KasuKasu sure is a feisty one. She sure has some strong ideals in terms of 'cuteness' and I agree with Yuu-chan that Setsuna comes off more as cool rather than cute. So the club broke up because of conflicting ideals, curious to see how they'll bring it back and get everyone on a similar page. Easily the best moment of the episode is when Karin walks past Ayumu trying to practice her introduction. xD She made a nice introduction at the end though, without any of KasuKasu's forced appeal. |
 |
| Am I the only one bothered by how the songs feel like a jarring music video interruption? |
 |
| I love the new art style so much. The girls are so freaking cute ugh. Kasumin deserves infinite headpats. So karin’s really invested in the Setsuna situation, I wonder why tho. Can’t wait for the OP to drop on Apple Music so I can learn it |
 |
| @Jaces_Sanctum: I remrked this for the first episode. But in this episode I've started to get used with this. I would wish, the change of reality, when Kasumi started to sing, hadn't been so abruptly, but i am less confused by this than for the first episode, when Setsuna and Ayumu had their songs. P.S.: I am more bothered about this big spoiler in the stinger :( |
|
| My girl KasuMeme she was lovely this episode |
 |
| Hmm, Kasumin is really cute as well but my #1 is still Rina. |
 |
| Kasumi's song was really good. Considering it + Ayumu's song, I love how they show each girls' URs and the initial SR outfit from All Stars. The opening song itself didn't initially grab me, but the visuals are really nice. ED>OP right now (although i feel like every love live season's ED is better than the OP) So Setsuna is next to be focused on? I would've thought it would be Shizuku since she's next in the initial order but I guess not I don't play SIF but All Stars is doing special events for the anime! All last week they had a login bonus to get Ayumu memorial pieces and an Ayumu-focused scout. So starting today they'll do the same for Kasumi, and so on. |
| So far, Ayumu might be a bit too nervous to be an idol. I also didn't expect a conflict of ideals as a reason for the school idol club to break up. Jaces_Sanctum said: Am I the only one bothered by how the songs feel like a jarring music video interruption? The MV style performances are a step up in well everything so far and Kasumi's sugary music video was slightly better than Ayumu's. |
 |
| My goodness! That was a riot of an episode. Every one of Kasumi's actions was just spot on. |
 |
| Honestly, I wasn't expecting Kasumi's song at the end. It took me by surprise but it was still good. Now we know the reason why the club was disbanded. |
 |
| Amazing episode Yup, there's no denying that this spin off is superior in almost everything. Pacing is on point, visuals are great, CGI is jaw dropping, songs are fire, characters are super fun and the plot is entertaining. Also, that after credit plot twist. I wasn't expecting Setsuna to be the seitokaichou. I'm so excited for this one. Haven't played the game nor have heard any of the songs from the group, so I'm even more hyped. So far, better than the original and sunshine Kasumin is 100% cute and hilarious lmao, my favorite personality presented as of now. But I'm more interested in the pink haired girl |
| I love all of them so much :') Especially Ayumu, she's too adorable T__T Kasumi's song was really good!! THEY SHOWED RINA'S BOARD IN THE OP AAAWW <3 speaking of the OP, I love it way too much- I can't wait for next week's episode<3 |
 |
| Nice development for Kasumi now I expect more development for the other members of the band especially Rina and why she restricts herself to express her feelings |
 |
| I'm sure someone pointed this out already but the first line Kasumi says in the episode is lyrics from the chorus to her song Wonderland. https://youtu.be/01kjQV-7fQQ?t=35 |

The sudden bursting into song just feels weird and out of place, and it's accentuated by the different animation style and large set pieces and costumes for these segments. |
|
| I just rewatched this episode and recognizes, that this little theft in the beginning was in fact a dióuble theft! Here the prrof: (Sorry, that this is my third post) |

| I'm sorry for Kasumin, but Ayumu is the cutest. Great episode as usual. Is it my impression, or is this anime more musical than the others? I like it. Wasn't expecting that revelation at the end, but now the club's sudden closure makes more sense. I liked how Kasumin was introduced, it is important that the anime does not try to introduce all the characters at the same time and give enough screen time to each one. I have nothing to criticize, this is my anime of the season. |

| Nice episode. KasuKasu is quite an amusing character. She realized she was kind of forceful with her cute ideal upon Ayumu, which is the attitude she disliked from Setsuna. Glad to see she has some sort of self-awareness. I appreciate Yuu as a supporting character and acting as "the manager" too. Ayumu is a bundle of adorableness tho. I'm not familiar with the game, but what I'm getting from this is that the club was focused on being idols as a group and they had conflicting ideas which made them disband. From what I've read the girls are solo idols, so I guess the solution is exactly that? Y'know, being able to maintain the club, but everyone has the creative freedom. OP gives me previous LL OP vibes, so that's nice. Kasumin's song was nice too. |
 |
| I think I migh've found my Nico replacement with Kasumin. Hyperactive in an entertaining way. Really enjoyed the episode. |

| So it looks like each new episode will focus on one of the girls, i like this pacing. Kasumi is a cheeky little shit, but with that kind of character she cannot avoid being compared to Nico of µ's and the comparison is not in her favor. Can't help but think of her as bootleg Nico, sorry Kasumi fans. Also surprised to see people here being surprised about reveal that student council president is Setsuna. I thought it was obvious if you just look at the two. |

| Another really good episode. To be honest, I wasn't that fond of Kasumi at first. She definitely reminds me of Nico Yazawa in several ways but she grew on me. She became confident in herself, and I like her song "Poppin' Up!". Also, Ayumu making a bun intro by putting her hands on her head is so cute! |

| Okay, I don't know a lot about Love Live, but I've seen fanart of yandere Ayumu. So, you better watch your back KasuKasu. |
| This episode sure had a good amount of meme-able faces and most of them came from the same girl xD Nice episode overall. Kasumi is on the thin line between being endearing or too annoying but I like her so far and the fact that she realized on her own about her hypocritical attitude towards Ayumu gave her character some really good points as well. So Setsuna is the "too passionate" kind of Idol, uh? Well, I can see something like that being a problem in a numerous group full of different personalities so having the Idol group breaking up due to a clash of ideals actually makes sense. As for the "plot-twist" at the end... not gonna lie, now I feel kinda stupid for not noticing that Setsuna and Seitokaichou~ were the same person... |
| Ayumu-pyon take my whole attention in this eps xd, also love the OP |
| Moe is Love ! Moe is Life ! |
| ah yes there's the overbearing cute type it's always the first years lol ,Ayumu showing you can be cute by simply being yourself like a true idol i will give Kasumi that she seems self aware of her issues if all the girls get proper inner conflicts instead of being one off notes i can see myself enjoying this group a lot also now 99% expecting a MV for each new member |
 |
| I'm glad they went much more in depth with the club breaking apart compared to what was introduced in the All Stars game. I was fine with Kasumi before, but this really felt like it built her character in a way I can understand better. Really loving the direction this anime has gone so far! |
 |
 Ayumu-bunny pyon, must protect that smile. Yuu also look very interested when she does pyon-pyon. |

| These episode explained some mystery, finally. Such as the reason behind the disbandment of the club, its actually pretty simple. Girls really had a complex manner there, by putting all of that squabbling into a real problems, and put them in a cold war, long hiatuses, and ended up with the disbandment. Setsuna, a mysterious girl that clever enough to hide her own identity, having so much sensitivity like that, must be hard for her. Kasumin, mostly, reminds me much with Niko characteristic at her first appearance, quite arrogant with her own definition of cuteness without thinking about the others feeling and created a gap to the groups that led them into a long-ass trouble. Unfortunately, with the time skip happened, their problem seemed unresolved, until Ayumu and Yuu arrived and realizing Kasumin of her damn mistake. Gladly she was not holds up any shyness, so in the end, she easily came up realized her own mistake. Will they make up again in the next episode and reform the club? The chance already to be expected, by the looked at the end credit, revealing the former member knewing the true identity of the student council president. She got busted! So, yeah, the plot really unique and made me interesting to follow whats goin on in the next one. Especially with the last two members, at the cat scenes. How did they join? Etc, etc. Lol. Lets see... Also, Kasumin solo was awesome, and Ayumu cute scenes, with that Pyon style, surely the best scene for me. Unfortunately she kept the formal introduction at the end which was making me sad for a while. The interaction seemed smooth, and i already attached with the storyline very easily. So, yeah, once again, let me see how well the next episode holding up the feeling with an unresolved problem. |

| Kasumeme's solo was great, I can't wait to get all the songs for this anime. The op was also good. Yuu is building up her harem slowly. The real MVP here is Karin, she made Ayumu realize her wants on being a school idoru, and it seems in the preview that she looked up for Setsuna-chan in the records.(We all knew the fact already though lmao) |
  Once we realize it, everything will fall into place Our hearts calling to the future with all their might We'll move forward, holding each other's shaking hands |
| With how little of a spoiler it actually is (in SIFAS, it was revealed at the end of the first chapter, which is more a prologue than anything), I'm glad that Setsuna's true identity was revealed so early. Drawing it out much longer would have been a dumb farce, even considering that the anime expands the first chapter into a real story. Really, Rina's face is more of a spoiler than Setsuna's identity and the anime shows it right away. |
 |
Yet another cute episode. Kasumin is not my favourite girl, but I still love all of them and glad to see how the club is getting more members. I also enjoy the fact that they changed the plot compared to the game, makes it more interesting to follow.  And even more of Ayumu cute moment in this episode, this girl melts my heart.  |
 |
| I didn't like Kasumi from the little glimpse we got of her last week, but this episode considerably improved my opinion of her. She's cute, she's fun and she's just very entertaining to watch no matter what she's doing. Her song was a fun one as well and the visuals once again enhanced it greatly. At this pacing, I think it's already fairly clear that this is going to get a second cour unless they rush things, as even by Love Live standards this is very slow in getting the group together. |

We know it will get 2nd season or maybe movie like u's and Aqours, give more time to build up Love Live Superstar!!! 4th group on franchise |

didn't know i need the gangs on suit   |
|
| Prez is 100% Yuki Setsuna. Kasumin is kinda annoying, can't follow others ideals but pushing her own on others. Well she atleast realised it. |
 |
| Kasumi introduction episode. She has a really cute voice, that makes me smile and laugh while watching this. yeah, it's never good to force others.. just let them do their thing. |
