| In the AMV Mogyutto -love- de Sekkinchu, Nico is wearing bunny ears and a maid costume! XD |
| Is it just me or the BGM for this episode suddenly went all amazing? Or maybe I was just moved by the mood. Amazing episode. Without doubt the hard-to-beat best episode so far. |
 |
| This show is so fun :D But this dance at the end was akward as hell :P |
| I know this is somewhat off topic, but how does "Love Live! School Idol Project Episode 0" tie in with this and is there an entry for it someplace already? Is that the "PV" some of you have been referring to? |
 |
| I love this Anime so much!!! There isn't one girl I don't like in the group. Didn't think another idol anime would top Idolmaster but I have to say this one is simply amazing. *shoutout to Rin, the funniest & cutest idol ever* |
Cratex said: Episode 0 is basically like an infodump of the whole Love Live! franchise/project/whatever you wanna call it. It gives you some information of how it all started with its first animated PV and single, how they've expanded to 16 CDs as of now, and how they've done activities that involve the community, from fan polls, livestreams, etc. Then it introduces all 9 members with information everyone should know by now if you're caught up with the show. After that, it talks about the live events and concerts and it actually shows footage from multiple shows the group put on. After that, they showed the first PV of the anime and that's really it.I know this is somewhat off topic, but how does "Love Live!

Almost as awe-inspiring as iDOLM@STER's ep20 poll results. lol |
| Aww, cute episode. |
| Great episode! Haha, she gave in to peer pressure. 5/5. |

 You're questioning my authority xD AiCon, I believe there is no "official leader" of the group. Honoka said that much in ep. 6. Niko is the president of the club, so on paper, she is actually the closet person to "official" leader, even though she has no real power since people ignore her initiatives most of the time. I really feel sorry for Niko but unfortunately, her "charm offensive" does not work on girls :D. If not for Honoka pulling the girls along, Niko has high risk of being rejected Honoka is actually the "real leader." At the end of ep. 6, everyone acknowledged as much. The reason they were looking for a leader is because Honola never claimed to be one and had no intention to do so. But that does not matter, "real leader" does not need to be written on paper. A person that commands respect, and whose opinion is valued the most is the "real leader." In the case of Honoka, people gravitate toward her in times of crisis (look at the concert scene in ep. 3) or when they need someone making a decision (look at their discussion about Eri in this ep.). µ is more or less built in Honoka's image: a spontaneous group the focus on 'fun', rather then meticulous and stiff if Umi, Eri, or Maki is the leader. Her goal (saving the school) is the group's goal even though some people may not share it as strongly as Honoka. Without Honoka, do you think µ would be the group it is right now? At the core, it is a collection of strongly opinionated individuals with vastly different perspectives. So without the center that everyone gravitate toward, it will fall apart. Nozomi's contributions to the group up until now are naming it and nudging Niko and Eri behind the scene. She certainly can give the group good advises and discipline them using her "punishment." But it's not to the extent of a leader that Honoka is. |

 Eri is a real hard-to-get but considering who her Seiyu is, Nanjou Yoshino, it was all worth it. Nanjou is the vocalist for the band fripSide. And for anyone who just got into anime ;), this is one of their song: Her star power is definitely an add bonus for μ :D I also found an amazing piano solo of the song Star Dash |
| |
| I knew about Nanjou Yoshino because of her singing as part of fripSide which of course was particularly known for the OP of Railgun. Nanjou is definitely a veteran, though relatively little known. |

| I think fripSide also sings for Railgun 2 as well. They are an indie band that is pretty popular in Japan. Another song, guess which anime it came from ;) I listen to this days on end. Love Live! has such quality music and musicians! @Aicon: the group dynamic is still shaping at this point. So maybe what you said, that Honoka and Nozomi become co-leader, will be apparent in future episodes :) |

ThangLong said: I think the title of the song gave away the name of the anime: Hayate no Gotoku the movie, right? And yes indeed fripSide will sing the OP for Railgun2 as well. I am sure it is what the fans want. It is quite amazing how fripSide got much more successful after having Nanjou as the vocal. I think fripSide also sings for Railgun 2 as well. They are an indie band that is pretty popular in Japan. Another song, guess which anime it came from ;) And by the way fripSide used to be indie but now it is under Geneon Universal Entertainment. |

| Oh wow, this episode was nothing short of amazing. Can't remember the last time I've experienced such a heartwarming moment in an anime. ;_; |

| Cute episode! Awesome to see the group finally complete. Hoping the school doesn't close. |
| at least the muse is in 9 people.. wooooooot the first concert!!!!! i almost scream in my room alone lol |
 |
| LOVED IT! Is it sad that idol is becoming one of my favorite genres? Eri was so pretty in this episode and I gained so much respect for her too :D Also, AWR YEAH FIRST PV I can't wait to see how they incorporate the others |

At front, or at first she's against school idols but deep inside she wants to be one. :) |
| it was a Great episode |
 |
| nice song and dance ^^ |
gintoke-sama said: it was a Great episode ^ this. The cards say the next episodes are also awesome with nice music <3 |
| I'm feeling thank you |
| always brings a smile to my face this group :) |
| I think the dance sequences are much better than idolmaster. The songs are good, but lack of variety. Most of them falls in the upbeat category. |

| Wow, uplifting ep! There are finally nine and it looks like its working out smoothly for them so far. |
| So it was Nozomi who came up with the name? Her and her cards that rule her life. |
| There is no such thing as shit taste. Only idiots who think everyone should have the same taste as they do. |
| The nine singing goddess, µ's Glad to see all of them now Go µ's, save the school!! Next ep, maid cafe's service XD |
"Signature removed"   |
| 5/5 Episode that brings to an end a long journey for the μ's, the timing was excellent, nothing rushed. The growth of the girls took place gradually and gave the audience time to adapt to changes in the group! Very nice to have the first taste live at the end of the μ's full. The technical sector has become qualitatively superior compared to what we saw in the first PV! What a difference! O_O symbv said: |
 |
| That Nozomi is a crafty one. The performance was ok, but I thought it lacked the "impact" they were trying for. |
  |
| Finally a full group. Nice episode. |
 |
polke45 said: I think the dance sequences are much better than idolmaster. ^Yup. The effect is by far more noticeable here, and seems to be more of an overall important aspect of the show as compared to the dance sequences in idolm@ster (arguably though, idolm@ster never really bothered to highlight this). |
| awesome episode now the group is complet |
| Signature removed. Please follow the signature rules, as defined in the Site & Forum Guidelines. |
| Eri gave in way too suddenly lol. |
| Nozomi is my new favorite character. |
| I'm watching the episode and I don't really understand why Umi-chan cares about their dancing skill so much. Great dancing (and singing) aren't even really that important to being an idol lol. Some of the most popular idols in the real world dance and sing worse than the girls in this show. What is really confusing me is why she is comparing them to a ballerina's dancing. Especially considering the ballerina dance is solo and not in sync with other members. They are completely different. |
| Nice, finally Eri is in too. now, let's save the school. :D |
| I love the pacing! There are no slowdowns on the road, they still going further with every ep. They still have a long road ahead but it's fun watch them grow and I enjoy it everything! |
