| When I saw some legs moving towards Honoka and the others I was like no.. couldn't be... Actually turned out to be true. A member from A-Rise meets with Honoka :o :o The girls at A-Rise haven't been watching and supporting μ's. Cool. Love the respect they have for the members and especially Honoka :D Ooh dayum, A-Rise and μ rivalry :D Loved A-Rise's song and μ's song. I want more of that. And a bit of rivalry! |
 |
| Amazing epd. I got to say I loved A-Rise's song way more than U's. Although U's song wasnt bad at all. |
| Glorious Titties Nuff Said! Make America Great Again! |
Valerant said: Did anyone happen to notice the preview? Yup... Not sure who it is though. Honoka's handwriting is sort of rough-ish and not that neat... I doubt she would give up on doing both aikatsu and student council work. I also don't think Umi would quit either of her clubs... She's practically a warrior at heart, so her stubborn determination towards work rivals Honoka once she has committed herself to a job. |
| I love both performances. Getting to see two at once, what a treat :D A-Rise giving out compliments to the whole group and then at Nico...haha xD |
 |
| Oh S*it it's A-rise, I don't know why I'm fanboying but hey its them in person XD. A-rise are really prestigious, makes me like them even more. Both of their songs were spot on, excellent singing and choreograph. They are going to have a great friendly rival competition. |
| 2 songs in one episode?? 5/5! and where can I get one Umi hug doll? http://i.imgur.com/sUou2WK.jpg |
| Great episode :D Loved how much A-RISE respects μ's ^^ Usually in this type of series u'd find the rivals being asses but they're really great rivals :) Niko being a cute devil was lol XD Honoka's charisma is truly astounding hehe. After seeing that performance from A-RISE, she immediately managed to make them hyped again ^^ Gotta admit though, personally I liked A-RISE's performance more. This idol group is really good. They're songs are epic :D Not that I didn't like μ's performance. It was really beautiful :D And Tsubasa's reaction to how good they were is proof to that ^^ I wonder how high they went in the rankings though? They showed the points raising up but they didn't show us the final rank. And they didn't really show us the other people's reactions other than their school friends. Well I guess that was their cliffhanger XD |
 |
| Keep forgetting no one has any Malice in this show not how i pictured them meeting A-RISE nonetheless it was great A-RISE is to good for CG :P |
 |
| ANIME OF THE FUCKING YEAR Seriously, what a blast. This episode exceeded my expectations. We finally get to meet A-Rise, and their 'Shocking Party' song is fucking fabulous. Man, their performance, voices and song is just too good. Can't wait til hear the full version! Then we get μ's new song, and while it's no Start:Dash, it's still great. A great performance from them. Can't wait to see what else this season has in store for us! |
| Hehe, I was very surprised when Tsubasa kidnapped Honoka ^ ^ I love both performances:):) This new song A-RISE was great! Loved A-Rise's song and μ's song. This episode was awesome.. I can't wait next!! |
| I still think μ's is better, both performance-wise, and lyrically-speaking. There's more interesting lyrics as compared to A-RISE and their dancing song. Honoka is #1. Woots |
| I loled on the part when every member of μ's were receiving compliment from A-RISE except for Nico who only got a "thank you" for sending them flowers. The rivalry between μ's and A-RISE is on! Both performance was good, I think A-RISE is way more better. But still, μ's was great on this episode. so different μ's member will hold the feather at the end. Last week Honoka was holding the feather, now it was Umi. |
 |
| Absolutely love the respect between the two groups this episode, and getting songs from both of them literally is the icing on the cake for this episode from me. Can't wait to hear the rest of the songs for this season... |
paganpoor said: How she knew muse? Like anyone else that watched their videos online. For example, last episode of the first season. Oh yeah. I forgot that they've watch muse's performance last season. Heh kuroikishi said: Tsubasa dragged Honoka cause A-Rise has been keeping track of Muse and saw them as rivals in the last Love Live. Also because their number of members were impressive enough to keep them on watch. Okay thanks. I've finally watch the englisb sub. I understand each of the compliment A-RISE has given each of them. Nico is funny. I have to wonder. How popular are muse now? They can freely walk but no one seems to look or approach them. The only fan who approach was Maki's fan. And seeing A-RISE much closer now, I can already say that Tsubasa is really cute. I like her already. |
| Fell in love in Tsubasa. Hmm but Honoka is number 1 for me ^ ^ μ's probably little has fans. |
| I thought Tsubasa would be arrogant and all but she's actually pretty nice. A-RISE's academy is off the scale of amazing. I'd sure love to attend that academy. The performance by A-RISE was certainly very good. Still to me Muse will come out on top. Tsubasa was kind to let Honoka and the the group have a live at their academy as well.That just shows how much they respect muse and how much they want muse to give their all. LOL at Nico, the cute devil. Eri-chi and Umi have a weak spot for dressing sexy lol Tsubasa's expression at the end of Muse's performances left her speechless. However, afterward she smiled because she knew Muse is going to give them a challenge they will cherish. |

Magito said: That being said, does anyone think Erina's voice acting is really stiff...? Yup, that caught my attention as well. I guess Matsunaga Maho isnt used to voicing deep voice characters. It felt stiff and forced to me. Nonetheless her singing is awesome. A-RISE's new song and dance was so amazing, really showed us why they are the top school idols. Now i cant wait even more for the ost to release so i can listen to their full song or maybe they will finally have their single. I really like A-RISE's song but comparing them to u's sing this episode seems unfair as the songs are pretty much different genre. |

| Oh my god, this episode was really very impressive. And that's one of the reasons why I love Love Live School Idol Project. There's always something what surprises me and makes me staring like a stone. A-RISE was really great, although I didn't like this kind of bilingual singing with the "Nonstop, dancing". |
 |
| Honoka~! x3 Still my most favorite idol in Love Live! x3 Anyways, really intense episode! I thought, for a moment, A-RISE was going to say something intimidating to Muse's, but, it all turned out well. :3 A performance by A-RISE and Muse's? Really nice episode! x3 |
| Check out my list! :O Meep! :3 |
Amarrez said: VERY SHOCKING VERY/10 wow |
 |
| That next episdoe preview is worrying thought. Who is resigning? And where are they resigning from? |
| A-Rise meeting μ's, damn. It is getting intense up in here. Lol @ the compliments A-Rise gave to each μ's member. At first, they were pretty legit, but then the producers started bullshitting the rest of the way LOLLL |
 |
| Did anyone else notice the brief change/error in Honoka's outfit in the beginning of the episode? xD |
| 「Shocking Party」is stuck in my head again, lol. 「Dancing, dancing, don't stop my dancing♪」(x3) 「Dancing, dancing, let me do♪」 |

GonenK said: Awesome episode! Anyone know what's the name of ending song in this episode? The ED is named どんなときもずっと |
 |
| holy fuckin wow. This episode was absolutely awesome. u's finally meets with A-RISE. I'll be honest; I thought they were gonna be douches. I thought they were gonna try and steal members and shit. And when the leader proposed that u's use their own school as their stage, I thought it was gonna be some kinda trap. But that was far from the case. I'm glad to see that they're very friendly with their competition; they seem like cool gurls. I lol'd when Tsubasa complimented Nico as the "little devil" of the group and her reaction to it. Hopefully, I'm not speaking too soon. And let's not the not one but two...TWO new songs and performances we were blessed with this week. A-RISE's performance was motherfuckin edgy as fuck and well-animated. u's performance was something we all expected it to be, which was amazing. I can't stop saying how well the 3D and the 2D sequences are blended together. Love Live has come a long way as a franchise. Also, it looks like there will be different characters holding the white feather in the ED. Honoka was holding it last episode, and now it's Umi. Just a little observation. and with thatt preview tho: |
| A very good episode. A-Rise is quite likable. Didn't expect u's to meet A-Rise. I jump of joy when it happen. Love the rivalry between μ's and A-Rise.

Really hope that's not the case because it will be like last season Kotori all over again. |

But it's important to remember that a movie review is subjective;it only gives you one person's opinion. http://www.classzone.com/books/lnetwork_gr08/page_build.cfm?content=analyz_media&ch=30 It doesn't matter if you like LoGH,Monster etc.If you are a jobless or college/school dropout living in your mom basement, you are still an unintelligent loser. Taste in anime does not make you a better person.If elitist don't exist, casual pleb and shit taste also don't exist. |
| Haha , awesome episode. A-Rise's performance was animated way better , guess it's easier to animate a 3 idols concert than a 9 idols one |
 |
| MUCH better than the previous episode. Partly for the TWO performances. Yea! New A-RISE song! |
  |
| I don't care for the style of A-RISE's songs. They always sound so busy and they kind of turn into gibberish with all the English they throw in. The tone of muse's songs are really uplifting and catchy. |
| A-rise's performance was amazing, our u's girls need to work even harder. And lol, Niko so fangirl in this episode. |
 |
| Does A-RISE have to do everything u's has to? Do they write their own lyrics, compose their own songs, come up with their own choreography ,etc? Or do they have like a powerful school supporting them and they are just the face of it. |
| 'I'm playing the role of Sonoda Umi' Best line of the episode. |
| There is no such thing as shit taste. Only idiots who think everyone should have the same taste as they do. |
| In Umi's mind Sexy Dress is quite hot ;) Poor people's ears' XD "Cute devil", yup that's a fitting description. Lol they are going to preform on A-Rise's roof :P I'm glad they showed A-Rise's performance and the chart was a nice addition. Their performance was good, but A-Rise wins this time in my opinion. |
| Good performances. Always entertaining to watch. Nice they got to meet their rivals. |

The only two things µ has are the financial support of Maki's family and the school's support from Kotori's mom. |

| Seeing A-RISE talk and sing makes me feel like a silly schoolgirl fangirling. They are just so awesome and they did it again with another enjoyable song. Damn they are the best. Was disappointed though that they didn't get a full song time and their clip was basically a short version.

I guess Matsunaga Maho isnt used to voicing deep voice characters. It felt stiff and forced to me. Nonetheless her singing is awesome. Yeah i noticed that and i was slightly sad cause from the singing clip her voice was awesome and i love her look so she is my favorite but her voice actor didn't do really great in the talking section. Well the deep voice still sounds awesome but the acting needed work. On the other hand Tsubasa really stole the show this episode.

It didn't look to me like the school gave them the idol role at all, they seem to be doing that because that is what they want and enjoy. |

| I liked A-Rise's performance more. |
| A-Rise is amazing! Nothing more fair if they keep winning Love Live! |
 |
| That was an amazing episode! Seeing both A-RISE and U's performance was awesome. I can see a very healthy competition from both of them, and love how they both respect each other as rivals other than being complete snobs. Hope U's win! I'm cheering for them! |
 |
| Honoka is really a dumb and a silly person when she has to talk in the microphone. About A RISE: they the mature type idol µ's: the childish type ido, and for me they're nothing comparing with A RISE |
