| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- Interesting to see that snow falling this episode with the cold weather. I liked this episode with the chill mood and usual humor. Glad to see Aqours keeping it together after their recent performances. Ruby got some interesting moments imo and I like how close she is with Dia. Those tears ;_; |
 |
LOL Chika-chan wearing full face ski mask XD |
| Kitan~! |
Lol, that was too funny XD She looks like a thief |
| Fantastic episode again, I wanted this episode to be so much longer, glad to see it's continuing next week. Chika and her Mikan accessories are absolute gold. XD Hanamaru with them round layers. xD I love how You was doing the salute when Hanamaru fell over the girls. XD We finally get to see Saint Snow again, I was expecting we'd get to see them perform, too bad we couldn't. I totally did not expect Saint Snow to fail the qualifiers though. :o I really liked how they decided to draw parallel with Leah and Sarah's relationship to Ruby and Dia. I loved how Ruby was able to understand what Leah was going through and seeing her speak up at the restaurant that Leah would just be lonely without her sister was a really sweet but embarrassing thing to say especially with Dia right next to her. I absolutely adore how close the Kurosawa sisters are, The Dia and Ruby moments this episode were so sweet. Loved it when Dia told Ruby she was really proud of her. The whole pier scene was really emotional. The sisterly bonds are simply too strong for me. <3 The final scene with Ruby and Leah arguing about their sisters was funny. xD The final shot with the tree, the lights along with Ruby and Leah was great. Somehow I feel the lyrics of the ED especially the beginning really resonate with the context of this episode. Feels like something Dia would tell Ruby. Also, Dia Ruby ED shot. <3 |

| im surprised my heart hasn't burst out of my chest yet ps: DAT ASS |
   |
| Siblings are great (I have one), but I'm bothered by the fact that they didn't SHOW the performance yet again. Otherwise I'm surprised that they're actually going to continue this episode's plot thread and AWAKEN THE POWER! |
| The statement below is true. The statement above is false. |
| It was a great episode. Can't wait for Ruby x Leah. |
 |
| That MariDia part at the beginning reminds me of Shoujo Shuumatsu Ryokou OP for some reason... |
What was my signature again? |
| I thought this will be a Hanamaru diet episode, thank god it's not it. I thought Saint Snow school is in UTX?? By the way totally did not expect for them to failed their performance. I'm glad Saint Snow got a lot of screen time, but I'm pissed they didn't show their performance. Even if they failed, should've show it to us, I want to hear the new song god damn it. And there's still more of Saint Snow on the next episode, A-RISE never even got this treatment.. I really like Sarah, I don't know why. Seeing Ruby crying with her usual pigii and arguing with Leah who's the best onee-san is cute as well. Seems Ruby and Leah will be singing together can't wait. There's some a little bit of YohaRiko and some MariKanan moments XD. |
 |
| I thought the Saint Snow episode is over because Ruby and Leah sang the ED Aaaaand this should enter "Try not to smile" challenge  |

| Kitan~! |
| Zura can't stop eating and Sarah messed up :'( Ruby there for her cause she knows her feelings for her big sister. 2 ep though? maybe season 3. |
 |
| Nice episode. Love Chika with his mask... Some funny moments too. But They are not cold by wearing a skirt when it is snowing? Like in real life, I'm sure I can't support that. Ruby was so cute, I'm glad the episode was focus on her. Really love the DiaRuby scene *-* Was expecting her to sing the ending in solo or with Dia but look like it is first year. Like most of you, that's sad they didn't show the performance of Saint Snow... |
| I had a really bad feeling about this saint snow when Ruby saw Leah tremble, it's already end up in failure so skip performance will save up some time. It's was a bit drama but it was kind of sweet. Ruby and Leah thinking to make a song for they big sisters together. / Getting closer and so on. " Ops, Hanamaru eating too much. What a hell Zura~ " To be Continue next week saturday. xD |

After a long waiting, we were finally able to see Saint Snow... but they didn't even show the performance and they've fucked up Saint Snow ! You're not happy with the fact that Saint Snow is actually getting some real emotional development, unlike A-Rise where they were reduced into the background and just became cardboard cut-outs used as a goal for u's to achieve? At the very least we're getting some kind of drama with them! Though I can see why you're disappointed with no actual Saint Snow song, hopefully we get to see some king of glimpse of it next episode. |

| Nice episode. Hokkaido looks great covered in Snow. LOL Hanamaru wearing so many layers of clothes. Poor Saint Snow. Sad they didn't make it to the next round. Nice of Ruby to cheer up Leah. |

| I dunno, I didn't like this episode much. Sure, the story behind Saints Snow failure was interesting but also kinda generic and forced (not to mention I was hype up to see their performance again and they didn't even animate it). Right, this applies to μ`s too but doing this several times in a row just feels pretty stale. They are seeing the end of the school as the end of their life which is kinda dumb and shortsighted approach to their lives. Shouldn't they emphasize that friendship is worth more than this? Surely they would be able to sing together even after that, right? (times like these I can actually appreciate shows like Wake Up, Girls that maybe aren't perfect but deals with those things a lot better). Heck, I would actually liked if this was the hint to the fact that Aqours continue singing even after the school and Love Live ends... Cause Love Live isn't really everything there is in the world, right? But if this isn't the true in the end then this episode actually served no story purpose. And I'm not mentioning the fact that they entered their inn by pure chance... surely that wouldn't happen if not forced by the plot. Also, Ruby was playing Cpt. Obvious in the end, not really telling her anything new rather then empty naive phrases (in the light of this it really shows how immature and dumb she is for her age compared to other girls..) But Ruby actually isn't anything more outside of her archetype of 'cute little thingie' so why do I even care, hm? Other than that, Hanamaru's gluttony is getting her annoying more and more, it just always feels like comedy element inserted where it shouldn't be. All-in-all, not a best episode, actually one of the worst in this series. Maybe that's just me because I still can't see any worth in Ruby 'archetypical' character - she never overcome her shadow unline other characters. But I also think that if they wanted emphasize failure here, they would do a lot better job if they let them fail some minor event instead, that would serve better as warning for them (and for viewers too) and it would also keep things more personal. The was it was with Saint Snow this episode, it just felt as an afterthought. |
Ah, probably misheard things I was watching while sleepy late night xD |
| Leah: Tell me about Chika! Why does she wear the mask? Chika: Perhaps she's wondering why someone would shoot an idol before making them lose Love Live! Leah: At least you can sing, what's your name! Chika: Who I am doesn't matter, what matters is our dance formation. *lifts cover* Chika: No one cared who I was until I became a school idol. Leah: If I took off that mask would you lose. Chika: No, but it would be extremely painful. Leah: You're a big idol. Chika: for you. Leah: Well, you got yourself caught. What's the next part of your master plan! Chika: Making you fall... with no chance of winning! Leah:  |

| Liked how they gave Ruby and Saint Snow character development. It was nice to see how one affected the other and vice versa. Also nice to see that the focus was on siblings(lol I can somehow relate) And as others have said, bad move not to include Saint Snow's performance. But, would you still complain considering that song was different from the one shown in an earlier episode? THEY MADE ANOTHER SONG FOR SAINT SNOW Lastly, another foreshadowing to the inevitable end to Aqours. Though, this is one of the things that makes SS greater than the original SIP. The slow build-up makes it so much better than the sudden, K-On! copy-paste graduation plot in μ's Lelouch0202 said: Somehow I feel the lyrics of the ED especially the beginning really resonate with the context of this episode.

| Twin-tailed imoutos bicker about who's onee-chan is better.This was a great episode. |
| expected a zuramaru episode, got a saint snow ep instead?? not mad, just wish some of the characters (you) got a little more background story (hanamaru), instead of side characters (kanan) that are ultimately unimportant to the plot. but what can ya say |
 |
| Bittersweet episode with Saint Snow's defeat. Really loved the interactions with Ruby and Leah, it feels so different to her behaving more independently for her sister. Can't wait for their tribute song |

| This episode is so focus on drama just like the previous ones, but at least it's not that 'drama'. Haha. Poor Saint Snow didn't make it to the final round. Poor Leah and Sarah. Glad Ruby is there to cheer Leah up and they decided to dedicate a performance for their big sisters. Aww. I love this photo, btw. They're all so cute. :3  Zura is the star of this episode. Lmao. Chika's mask, though. Hahaha. So cute. |

| LOL Hanamaru and her gluttonous self lol I like the Ruby/Saint Snow focus, both Leah and Ruby feeling down about it being the last Love Live with their big sisters. But in the end Ruby cheering her up. Found it funny when Ruby was like no my sister is better xD Chika-chan and that ski mask xD |

Though for this particular episode, Try and be brave, I know it's scary, It's not like I was able to do it from the start, either I messed up a lot, I was really frustrated, But that gave me strength, so don't give up felt like something Dia would say to motivate Ruby since she can be pretty timid. xD |

And the scene in ep7 when the other Uranohoshi students gave them their support was where I think it was meant for. so, if the ED was for the series, I guess to the OP was for the build-up of everything that has happened so far? |

Saint Snow as idols is over. Now, we are going to see Saint Snow outside the school idol universe. There's gonna be some "emotional development" like you say, but no more cool Saint Snow like we were waiting for a very long time. Damn it, it took 8 episodes to see Saint Snow on scene and when we finally get to see them, the hype was real ! The intro of the song was leading into something freaking amazing but all of this... for nothing. Thanks for trolling us, assholes. SS was the only reason I keep watching S2 which was already a so-so season, but now I've got no more reason to watch the rest Buddy, if you're just watching Sunshine to see more Saint Snow than what's the point? |
|
| I'm a little bummed that we didn't hear Saint Snow's song. I liked last season's "Control." |
| I didn't expect Saint Snow to lose that way as I thought they were Aqour's rival and they will meet in the final round. Now that they're eliminated, I wonder if another "rival" will appear in the final round? I like the conversation between Dia and Ruby. It was a heartwarming scene between two sisters. I enjoyed the scene between Ruby and Leah. Little sisters' talk! Leah smiling like that was a rare but great sight.  I look forward to see how Saint Snow developed after this loss in the next episode. :) |
 |
| lmao the drama in this was executed so badly. |
| Oh my, so much Ruby. I LIKE IT. |
| Finally an episode where Ruby isn't 100% annoying. She's only 90% annoying in this one. Progress. |
 Three things cannot be long hidden.. ...the s u n, the m oo n, and the tr u th. |
| I never knew Hanamaru is such a burger glutton! Damn, I wanna see how Awesome Saint Snow performs and how they mess-up with that fall...damn! 4/5. |
 |
| Too fun the beginning of the episode. It is touching instead the final one and the part that concerns Ruby and Dia. Too fun Chika, I was dying with laughter when I saw her. |
 |
| Saint Snow could've saved the show but Loli Live Sunshit chose to discard them as villains and didn't even bother showing their performance. Congrats garbage show, I'm lowering the score to a 1 |

They got miraculously beaten by muse despite the popularity gap and home advantage, some BS that was for the sake of the plot, freaking plot armor |

I agree, that part fit well with episode 7. As for the OP, if I had to put it one phrase it's basically Zenshoku Zenshin! XD To me at least, the OP seems to represent Aqours going full speed ahead to pursue their dreams. The last line "Let's run with everything we have and become the shining wind" certainly does seem to represent that. |

This killed me. Chika: idol by day, thief by night. Heartwarming episode. Ruby makes the cutest little noises. |
