Also, I want to add that I know at least in Japan and HK (not entirely sure about Taiwan or China) there are schools which use 60% as passing level. But I have never heard of 75% being used. Yes, and also by Spain, but it changed drastically after the 1946 Philippine liberation. However, June 4, 2012 were now implementing the K12 educational system. |
| Nozomi's the fuckin best. And I'm confused at the end. Is the school now closing after 1 year instead of 3 years? |
destructo22 said: No, what the school head said is they will stop recruiting new students, so after the 1st year graduates in 2 years the school will close; whereas in ep.1 they were saying there was still hope for the school to continue if the school's new intake next year goes up. But this is now superseded by the decision to have no new intake at all.And I'm confused at the end. Is the school now closing after 1 year instead of 3 years? |
| So MAL finally starts locking news threads that are only a few weeks old? I wonder where was the announcement of this change? Or we are seeing yet another case of changes made that impacted users but not communicated to them? I wonder how long people would put up with this. As much as I have a bunch of information to share about anime announced recently I cannot share it in news board, and the anime series is too disorganized and chaotic to share information except with people already interested in the particular series. |

Our system is: A=100%-90%, B=89%-80%, C=79-75%. While this system is still used for the final grades, the scoring system for tests has actually been changing over the years to where everyone has to get an 80% just to pass a test. 6 years in elementary and 4 years in high school. No letter grades here. Well, that's all I know. |

destructo22 said: That's right. This is why back in ep.1 Honoka still thought that if she could make the school idol project a success the school could become popular and enough new students will come to prevent a school closure. This is no longer possible now because the school has decided not to take any new student in the coming year.Okay, so the announcement back in the first ep wasn't final until now. Gotcha. |

symbv said: hpulley said: That we need to find out in the next episode, don't we?Even if u's wins LoveLive!? Hmm... Indeed, just thought it sounded like the decision might already be irreversible. |
hpulley said: I think the intention was to make it sound like irreversible and so make it even more joyful and relieving when they really succeed in stopping the school closure. Unlike Tari Tari, I believe here the school will not close at the end. It could the result of winning at Love Live (a la Girls und Panzer) or some other more ingenious way, I don't know ;-)Indeed, just thought it sounded like the decision might already be irreversible. |

So Idol Research Club >> Singing and Sometimes Badminton Playing Club LOL No, really I love Tari Tari too, imported all six BDs and the two disc soundtrack and music collection. Different show... |
hpulley said: MasterMeNL said: Great episode, at this point I'm sure that this'll be at least a 2-cour show. Seeing as a lot of people say the OP and ED sound great, I'll be downloading them in a bit to evaluate them. But since it is 2013, the music would've been mastered in 2012 or 2013 which usually means that it's shit. Perhaps this is an exception without hypercompression and low dynamics. I'll edit it my thoughts in a bit. How can you tell from an mp3 rip? The discs sound good to my ears but I listen to my music LOUD so my ears may not be the best judge of dynamic range. I do think 48Khz 24 bit sounds better than 44Khz 16 bit but that could be my imagination. I replied to you on your profile page, it's rare for me to reread a discussion but I thought that people may have responded to me. |
I almost never read discussions after I made my post, if you want to reply PM me or post on my profile page. |
| hm.... End was sad but i hope girls will help their school ^^ |
| Cmon guys, the school ain't closing down. |
 |
| I never get bored with this episode, LOL!!!! HAHAHA! Nozomi teases MY Niko like that while studying! Nozomi's dangerous but discipline, Niko deserves it. And Rin! Nice try Rin! Your trick is easier to read! She hates english subject. As always, Maki hits her head and that's gotta hurt! |

A rare sakuga mistake: Actually I think the part of Nozomi talking to Umi is also a sakuga mistake. Unless Nozomi asked Umi to come at a later time to talk to her, it would be hard to see how Nozomi would change into the shrine maiden's costume first before talking to Umi when Umi asked to talk to her alone. Wow, such eagle eyes you had there 0_0 Lol @ Niko & Nozomi, even pettanko is afraid of breastchest..um.. massage Shock @ ending |
"Signature removed"   |
| I love Nozomi! She is starting to be one of my favorite characters. Instead, the vice-president is someone really interesting and of course necessary for the group... She has to enter the school idol grup yes or yes! And oh, god, the school can't close... |
 |
| nozomi sure love touching ppl's boobs lol |

| I'm glad that the 3 girls worked very hard to study for the finals! No wonder sexual harassment can be a motivator~ LOL |
 |
| I figured her for a former idol, wasn't expecting ballerina. |
| Oh god, the ending song is probably my least favorite of all of them so far LOL. Nozomi's voice is off pitch....at least her character is fun too watch compared to listening her singing voice. I love Eri's soft voice tho. I never noticed how pretty Eri's eyes are! The animation on eyes is on point, |
| So a 53 is a passing grade in japan, lawl and nico is soooo annouying with her idol persona |
| Oh, so Live Live! is competition, I thought it's something different. And I just realized they are rotating their voices in ED, precisely how they agreeded in the last ep :) But cliffhanger like this? I don't get it, wasn't school closing the reason why they started the group in the first place? Why to put it as shocker (well, not really) for a second time? From viewer point this wasn't really needed even it was definitive this time as nothing changes. And she said "Starting NEXT year, school will cease to accept new students". What that means is that this year's applicants for first year are still allowed as those applications are handled upfront and since they didn't announce that publicly nothing is definite (even though I thought that they already stopped accepting new students in the first ep but well...) So IF Love Live if successful and they get many new applicants they still have time to reconsider. Therefore this was pretty unnecessary drama in the end of the episode. And I already see two possible candidates for Muse to join next year :) |

That Honoka uniform appear mistake was fixed for home release :) |
| Didn't finish the episode yet but logged on just to comment, Eri's sister is freakin' adorable!!! Her character design is flawless *o* 10/10 would watch a sequel just on her and eventually promote her to 'favorites' status |
| 53 in America is an F so I'm guessing our F is their B or C? Eli-chi got moves she needs to join already and teach them all to dance. |
"What has two arms, two legs, and is alive? Not your favorite character lol! xD" |
| Arbritrary antagonist (ie: Eri) is arbritrary. |
| Despite the animation mistakes, this was most likely the best episode so far. The boob fondling was unnecessary and annoying though. I bet that μ's will become so popular heaps of people will be trying to get into the school, changing the school's fate of closing. |

| Still sad they reduced Nozomi to a boob grabber in here. Ah well. |
| Eri chan might be 2nd best girl for me |
 |
| Hmm.. .Interesting, Now things are spicing up a little. |
 |
| Eh, I wasn't really feeling this episode, although Alisa a cute. Not sure why the student council isn't allowed to try to keep the school from shutting down, unless the decision to shut it down was extremely close to being passed at the time of the first meeting with the chairwoman (and it went through by the meeting with the chairwoman at the end). I'm also not sure how Alisa became a fan of μ's before their orientation day concert, unless she became a fan after Eli recorded the performance for her. In the ED, it was pretty cool how Eli was singing lead and Nozomi was singing backup since Eli's actions against μ's are pretty overt and Nozomi's actions supporting μ's are pretty covert. |
 |
| Convincing the episode, the reasons for so much animosity by Ayase, have a good reason, and it is repeated in a manner befitting the situation. Fun and productive narrative, very cute and lovable characters. |
 |
| I liked Niko, Rin and Honoka in this episode. What a bunch of procrastinators! xD Nozomi's punishments... omg I hope Eri will help the girls from now on. (Most likely since she appears as a μ's member in the opening.) Not sure if this will make any difference, though, since the school seems doomed to close anyway. Let's hope everything is explained in the next episode. |
 |
| Eri is me when i compare j-pop idols to k-pop idols lmao |
| Whoa! Did you see? Samurai Buyer is selling exclusive items of Love Live Concert!! I got mine here: http://samuraibuyer.jp/ng/en_us/lp/bandai I can't wait for it to come!! Kyaa!! <3 |

| The STP is quite a bitch, also the 'I'll rub your boobs as a punishment' got old extremely fast... |
"At some point, I stopped hoping." |
| After getting through a troublesome Eli-kaichou, the girls face a new problem and it's the three brawny girls having to pass all their exams lol Nico holding her math book upside down while telling the others not to mess up and doing the Nico Nico Nii every time she gets stuck only to end up being groped by Nozomi was hilarious xD She really had to drag in the other two into her punishment lmao I was very surprised that it was actually Eli that recorded the videos for Alisa and put them up in the internet as well but her initial intentions weren't very good... Once Nozomi explained it though, it became clear that she's the granddaughter and top student of a famous Russian ballet school instructor. Once you have a taste for the fancier, more professional things in life, you won't want to settle for anything less. I'd like to see how Muse will try to convince Eli to teach her formal steps and input it into school idol dance moves but they actually decided on closing down the school after all that omg ;-; The ED being sung by Eli and Nozomi was really nice~ |
 |
| Niko, Rin and Honoka managed to pass their exams. So the school decided not to accept anymore student next year. Will their efforts be in vain? |
 |
| Umi finds out Eli uploaded the video, she's a quarter Russian and a ballet prodigy. Studying under breast rubbing threat and they pass. |
 |
| Nozomi is juts a perv (loves to grope girls breasts) lol if a guy would do it he would get charged with sexual assault talk about sexists (i mean anime authors, not first anime like this) lol Hilariumosis said: Nozomi can grab and fondle with their boobs all she wants and that´s okay compare to if it had been a male character then he would´ve been the biggest pervert and most likely suspended indefinitely... Not fair! IKR punch of sexists (authors of this type of stories) lol |
