I kind of like how they've done the "obstructive student council prez" this time around. Dia doesn't want Aquors to happen but it's becoming increasingly clear that she doesn't really have control. It's a nice change from Eli shutting down everything in OG.

Mari being a behind-the-scenes playmaker is pretty cool too. She's basically Gandalf.

I went back and checked out of curiosity, and the episode of OGLL where Nico joins up has her singing a solo version of Kitto Seishun ga Kikoeru for the ED.

I am enjoying how strong the meme potential in the new series is right from the start. Yohane continues to prove herself powerful.

That makes more sense than "pretty bomber head" which is what the subs I was using had, I think.

Maybe she means that Ruby is so aggressively adorable that her cuteness should be classified as a military grade weapon. :swoon:

Yohane is just the latest addition to a long list of evidence proving that chuuni girls are the best.

I finally got around to starting this and watched the first two episodes.

The first episode was absolute garbage and if the title didn't have the "Love Live" in it, I probably would have dropped it. Thankfully, the second episode was a lot better and was what I was looking for from the first episode.

the og love live dub was pretty good (awesomesauce was great localization) and this looks decent if you like dubs

Chika's voice is solid, which is very important. The others vary, but are at least decent.

i think the school getting closed down is a bit much but i feel like chika's reaction was worth it

Endorph

the closing down thing seemed like mostly set-up for the amazing chika gag

and tbh unlike og ll it makes sense the school is closing, they're out in the sticks instead of five minutes from a big city

and also the third years have actually interesting drama this time

I'm not the happiest with it coming back up as a plot point, but we'll see how they handle it going forward.

Still champing at the bit for more Kanan backstory info. We want more on Wistful Distant Team Mom, dammit.

Zuramaru and fascination with technology might be overtaking RubyMaru for my OTP.

Yeah, I was a little disappointed that they're rehashing that plot point, but at least they're not trying to hide it. And like Endorph said, at least it makes a little more sense this time.

I genuinely really like the focus on community spirit that this show has had. The girls are getting the whole community to help out to save the school and the reason their debut was a success was due to the kindness of the town. It's a good theme I am happy to see in my animes.

A bit underwhelmed that the "save the school" thing is being played pretty straight but i'm not surprised since all the promotional material mentioned it. And it did result in a powerful joke so I think i'm ok with it.

Eli before she joined the group was really bad, it was like if Dia's refusal to have an idol club was her only character trait. Tragic Third Year Backstory on the other hand is incredibly good and even though they're the group with the least screentime it's still giving them focus and intrigue and stuff. It's pretty well done.

Yeah, I'm expecting some sort of cameo by at least a member or all of µ's (or at least A-RISE, they're still somewhat relevant, right? They'll probably show the UTX High building at least) next episode.
