From zero to hero, or at least, one first.
Thats what happening on this last episode of these season. Their last performance, was absolutely brilliant. I just love the stages setting for them. So shiny! Its so warming up my heart!

One goal had been resolved, with the help of everyone, their kindness, their effort, their will of fire, their passions, they could pass the burden that always block their way to success. Its not the best result, so far. But surely they developed some great thing over there. They success to concluded every peoples heart in one performance. Such a great thing that even Muses couldn't did that on their first big show. Congratulations, Aquors! Keep your humble, and be shiny!

What they achieved with a zero? A shiny love from the group of Aquors that never leave off their heart! The Sunshine will continued their story! From the start, from the number of one. Their very first. Yep, thats it. This is their zero. A zero Introduction, of Aquors. A zero Introduction of their shine, and ended up with 1 result. One more season to built up. 1 more story to strengthening their relationship. 1 more way to became the number at Love Live! competitions! Could they surpassed it? Lets see the next season!

Okay, thats it for me. Another wrecked commentary, with a lot of effort, i can survived this first season. There were so much happening. Absolutely great. I don't have anything to said. It was indeed a well compacted conclusion in these single episode. Yet, as general its just a symphony of a greatness. The true meaning of a shine? Well, they surely held some of their successor memories to be a shine. However, their last 3 episodes showed me that they could maked their own differences. So, i just love that direction. Its suited well, the concept was good. With all of that, i had no complain to actually give another 9/10 for these nice spin-off continuations series from the succession of Muses. Congratulations!

Well, it was an okay finale, but it could have been a lot better in my opinion.

Overall, this was a very good season, but nothing can beat µ's.

That was sweet.

It was nice seeing all the girls get teary-eyed. It's like, you never know where life is gonna take you, but the atmosphere comes off as "I'm glad it got us here though!"

Also, I loooooo~ve their outfits for the Mirai Ticket song (The T-shirts made that were based off it are awesome too). &++ that was a great song to perform and end with~

Definitely wasn't expecting a whole drama before their performance, it was definitely entertaining though. Also I realised my post for the last episode was dumb, a whole season dedicated to preparing for the one Love LIve performance would be awful LMAO

Honestly, character wise I prefer Aqours to Muse so much and the third years carried this show so hard. Music wise I prefer Muse though, but also we've not got to hear much music from Aqours I don't think.

The second half of the show was alot better though, first one felt like side quest filler kinda stuff just showing off how fun being an idol is. I'm disappointed we didn't really get any kind of training camp episode and we didn't really get to see the behind the scenes much at all. Overall it's a 7/10, but if it wasn't for the last few episodes and how good the characters were it'd be a 5/10

Mari using a Windows 10 computer caught me off guard. Is that even allowed under copyright laws?

Chika's mother is really small, lol.

Love Live universe must be a world filled with miracles and coincidences. From Honoka stopping the rain to this episode's school girls raising their light sticks and thee fountain starts up with them.

I knew it that extra performers aren't allowed.

The summary at the end of this episode was pretty cool. It's kind of like that one episode of The Last Airbender. I like it when shows do that. Kind of wonder why don't more shows do it. But I guess it could lose its charm.

They did the skit in their uniforms, but sung the song in costumes. Hmn, I wonder how does that fit in the story chronologically? As in, when did they change?

This was a really good finale, and as good as that play was to summarize the show I kept wondering if they were allowed to do that lol, but I think it was a really nice way to showcase how far these girls have come and the journey we as viewers took along with them. The final performance was amazing too, love how they still managed to incorporate the other students and even people that aren’t students with their performance, Chika broke choreography to do it but it was a really good moment lol. And seeing the number of applicants change from 0 to 1 like they kept saying was nice to finally see after Aqours has been plagued by 0s up to this point.

I really enjoyed Sunshine, this is coming from someone that’s only seen Superstar and Nijigasaki, I’m watching in a weird order I know lol, but I did really love this even if I haven’t seen the original show. I know early on there was beef about this being too similar to the original show but as it turns out that was part of the plan, the girls realized they didn’t need to chase Muse and paved the way for their own future after copying them for most of the season, and without having seen the OG I think it still worked really well, it probably would have been even better if I had seen Muse first but that’s just how it goes lol.

I had a few gripes with some of the dramatic situations, namely the 3rd year girls and Riko’s piano competition, they had really touching resolutions but were built on aspects that annoyed me, but overall I did enjoy those bits despite my issues. I think You had the best drama with her little arc near the end though. And I don’t think I have a best girl yet but I do particularly enjoy Hanamaru and her “mirai zura!” bits lol, and I think Chika has been one of my favorite MCs so far, I already liked her for her outgoing personality but her character growth was drastic by the end of this season, she’s like a completely different character almost, and I really like that. She’s also just super cute so there’s that too lol. All the girls were great tho, it’s really hard to say one is my favorite, maybe by the time I finish Season 2 I can say for sure. I also found this to have some of the best comedy out of any of the series I’ve seen so far, as well as the most yuri lol, a lot of those moments felt like they went beyond friends, and that’s just fine too.And this also happened to be my final anime of the year, I squeezed it into this last week just for that lol.

Man this was disappointing. The characters are bland in comparison to SIP (which already had several forgettable characters itself), the plot points are boring copies of SIP as well, almost every aspect is worse than SIP. I'll still watch the second season but I don't expect it to be much better. Hopefully the next entry wouldn't be as bland as this though.

Ahh, beautiful. The really heart filled message of the whole season has a really nice climactic scene here with the performance, I really liked it. This sequel has a frequent yet still nice message which they tell really well by playing off of its existence as a sequel. Excited for the second season, but the series already set itself as a sequel which stands strong by this season alone, even if it took a bit to realize. Definitely teary eyed watch, haha!
I'd have to say my favourite character is Yohane, in Sunshine!!.

Ok I thought Riko was gonna say no, we worked so hard we can't have these girls with no training or practice come on stage with us. Like ???

Also imagine going to love live and then one of the many groups just start putting on a play about their back story lmao and THEN stop in the middle of their song to bring a bunch of people near the stage which they stated previously wasn't allowed lmao

Overall good. Still prefer school idol project but these ones are growing on me.

I didn't expect that at first, but I liked this season a lot better than the first season of School Idol Project !
I wasn't fond of the beginning due to how blatantly it was trying to follow in the first story's steps with even more stereotypical characters and a total lack of training scenes, but it became much better later on.
While I don't know who's my favorite yet, I like all the characters (where in SIP, I had a hard time with most characters until season 2), some episodes were very touching, the chemistry between the girls is very good and overall, it is an endearing and heartwarming story with a very good message.

It still has a lot of the flaws I already noticed in its "big sister", but just like the latter, at the end of the day I enjoyed the ride and I'm curious to see what's next.
I give this first season a 6/10.

Am so disappointed to say 4/10 for this whole season… there was so much potential with the characters and location, but the writing and repetition in Sunshine was a chore to watch. I’m hoping to make my way through all the love live generations, but sunshine has a LOT of work to do to get this sour impression to turn into a positive one with its season 2. I am genuinely surprised there are people who liked the random theatre display and the final song and even the final sentiments which were all rehashing things that had already been done and said. The song was a fine enough song, and the outfits were cute (even when Chika’s barette kept glitching out on her close up), but the choreography was so absurd. Chika just abandoned her group who was clearly trying to follow their steps, making a clunky performance as she ran far away from them, and then she managed to do it a second time, running down a runway that didn’t appear to be there in the first place, toward?? The exit???? Very awkward. Also they just showed the 0 to 1 on applicants really hastily and don’t allow it any impact at all. What a mismanaged finale for a very poorly constructed season. These characters have a lot to offer but the writing is running them into the ground. I have so many complaints for every episode (except mayyyybe the You centered episode??) where I was genuinely pulled out of my watching experience over and over. I’ve never had such difficulty trying to stay mentally present with a show, but this show really kept pulling the most unnecessary, absurd things- and this is as someone who enjoyed seeing Future Honoka in the Love Live movie and the strange leaping over a pond to fly scene which were both really absurd. Sunshine felt almost like it was competing to see how many absurd moments and drama it could throw in the mix until the show was hard to empathize with at all. I wish better for these girls and this cool setting in season two. I want to root for this generation of Love Live, and I can’t believe how difficult the writing is making that.
