Excited for Leilla!!! All love for Love live!!!

# data[].attributes.body
I loved and been following Love Live from the start so I hope I will keep on loving it with the addition of Liella!! It would be refreshing if the student council isn’t against the idol club this time. I am wondering if Liella would stay as 5 all throughout or there would be some additions once they get kouhais but at least the 3rd year graduation thing would be far off (they would stay together as a group longer 💖). Also I hope SIF would still stay strong after the merge ❤️

# data[].attributes.body
I feel like with the merging of JP and International servers and the fact that Leilla will be the second group to not have defined scouting, SiF will likely be shut down in favor of expanding All Stars by the time this capsule is opened, it'd be nice to be wrong though since I enjoy SiF way more.

Gosh, i've been a love live fan for so so long and seeing it become what it is now is so amazing!! I'm absolutely sure that i'll keep following these girls for a long time, and I can't wait to see what the future has in store for everyone taking part! ;w; ✰✰

As for my predictions for Liella... My favorite girls always have been the first years, so i'm absolutely sure i'll love them all!! ♡ I'm sure that, as time goes on, we'll keep following these girls on their school idol journey, maybe even beyond their first year!  ✰✰

I hope that, in the story, we get more insight about the technical processes behind school idols that we don't get to see often! Also, so far i'm linking Keke a lot, but who knows who i'll end up loving the most? X)

...how is it now? I’m sure you still love Nijigasaki, future me. Not sure if you’re still an all stars player, or if you still love love live!, or if you will even see this, but keep loving every love live! first year to ever exist :)

Love Live Prediction. The return of the big show (Nesoberi edition)

Love Live Prediction. The return of the big show (Nesoberi edition)

# data[].attributes.body
Wanted to include something I could make real quick with my favorite Love Live merch, nesoberis! Unfortunately since Liella Nesos have not released at the time of the capsules’ date, had to use a screenshot.
But have a prediction that the staff over at Love Live will bless us once more with a joint performance with Aqours, Nijigasaki, and Liella in one big venue! Since it was down during Love Live’s 9th anniversary, would be exciting to see if we could see the same thing happen for a future anniversary!
I hadn’t put μ’s here as felt like they would want to utilize the current ongoing groups. But if they do bring the og group back like the did for the release of a ASFYYY!, that would be a great surprise!
Hope it’s something we can see in the future with live shows being limited as of late, and this would be a fantastic way to bring people back to live shows. Aqours, Nijigasaki, and Liella shine!!!

I feel like Ren will end up very underrated, Sumire’s story will break us, and somehow, I really doubt that Liella! will make it into all stars in the near future. Current ranking for girls is Keke, Ren, Kanon, Chisato, Sumire, but it’s changing a lot and hasn’t stabilized! It’s more like Keke/Ren, Chisato/Kanon, and then Sumire. Currently I don’t like Sumire that much, she’s cool but I don’t like her as much. I think that might change though, when her backstory is revealed. I feel like it’ll be a good and heartbreaking (or heartfelt) one. I also think Chisato will be a really supportive childhood friend for Kanon, and I’m thinking Keke will probably be the one to make costumes (or maybe Chisato). I could see Ren being well-versed in music, but I also think Kanon has liked it for a very long time (and that will tie into her backstory maybe, with *maybe* stage fright etc), so I could see either working with the music. Could also see Sumire doing it too, but I think she would likely be more concerned with the publicity and like...media image of Liella! as well as maybe actual logistics. I love Keke a lot and I think her foreign roots may tie into her backstory a little bit (whether through discovering her mother’s home country and/or family, or through homesickness or something like that). I also think she’ll have a lot to bring to Liella! in terms of perspectives. I think they all will, actually. Ren from a more proper, point of view, Sumire a less formal one, Keke a foreign one, Kanon from like a...family based perspective (idk, I feel like Kanon holds her family very dear to her) and Chisato maybe a friendly-face type one. I could also see Kanon bringing in Spanish culture to her work. I just feel like each is part of a different environment. Sumire probably interacts with people online, where as Ren, not so much. Things like that. I think their goal will be, to overall, bring everyone together through a love for school idols (as well as to bring their school more applicants). It got kind of deep at the end, but that’s what I predict. I hope you’re doing well, future me.

Someday いつの日か叶うよ願いが
Someday いつの日か届くと信じよう

To ruru- the me I want to be, am becoming and therefore will be- who has held on to μ's and your dream which they inspired, through thick and thin.

All those memories, both bitter- "not this school idol thing again", "what's this Love Live bs", and that time we cried because Aunt X offered to buy a book so we chose School Idol Diary ほのことうみ which is our first manga (and currently, only) just to get bashed by our parents afterwards; and sweet- that first time we hummed Snow Halation and wondered what the song name was because we forgot, how we won both a nendo from a Love Live! lucky draw and a 4 year battle with our mom over anime and Japanese in general, not to mention our first neso and the unforgettable ラブライブ9周年 DL which was our first concert viewing.

All those memories- and so much (so much!) more, make up our life with Love Live! over the past 8, no, 9 years (2014, wasn't it? Crazy year). I'm sure you still remember the day we decided to become idols, the people who spread light and give hope to people in their darkest of days, just like μ's did for us.

From the days where we struggled to read romaji, unable to pronounce words like "ookiku" and "datte" from Borarara; to the day なってしまった was released and we glided over the kanji- it's been one crazy ride. It's funny how Korekara no Someday stuck by us in those days when we didn't know the meaning, and has now become sort of a life mission statement that we sing whenever, wherever.

From the past to the present in the future- I know that "you" won't have forgotten these feelings, and I hope that we have made it there.

そう泣いてなんかいられないよ だってさ
楽しみはまだまだ まだまだこれから！

Love,
まだruruになっていない人

Based on how it seems that they’re not following LL “traditions”. Let’s see how wrong (or right) I’ll be! 😂

# data[].attributes.body
I remember getting into LoveLive! School idol project around 2015, back then my best friend/neighbour and i shared the same interests in lovelive. I was, and still am, a kotori fan and she was an Umi fan. We would spend our time playing SIF at her place and sometimes even just learning the dances to the song, till now i still remember almost every step to wild stats vividly. The fact that i could bond with her and the fact we became closer due to lovelive amazes me, we ended up spending a lot of our days together that year. I grew further from her as well as lovelive, no one around me knew the show and barely anyone knew anime. I was watching LLSS in silence, alone without anyone to talk to about. Till today, i still havent found many lovelive fans that Im close to but it has brought me to many other genres of anime, Lovelive is the reason why i got into anime and if i didnt im pretty sure my current friends and current boyfriend and i wouldnt bond so well. I hope to one day find another friend who shares the same passion and interest as me with lovelive since its really my favorite anime and its a big part of my life. Liella, i cant wait to see you grow and one day stand along side Muse, Aqours and Saint Snow.
Thank you<3

Dang it's been a long time since i've used this nickname

# data[].attributes.body
Wow, to think its been this long since I became a part of all of this. From crying when the last live was announced for u's to an arrival of a 4th group, you can bet i've seen everything (almost).  If you remember when nico nico nii was everywhere on the internet you deserve a veterans award (seriously though it was crazy how much love live shot in popularity - for only like a couple weeks - and then came snow halation oh boy was that something).

I haven't met many people who have watched (or even heard of) love live, besides my friend who introduced it to me and my other friend who i tried to get to look at it (he only lasted 1 ep rip). Last year i found someone who watched it as well but unfortunately messed up our first convo. I wasn't able to say a lot, and I eventually just froze in front of her. It annoys me to this day but at least i found someone who had seen it as well.

To be completely honest, I was on the side who thought Aqours were carbon copies. Who wouldn't have? Same hair colour protagonists, grey hair childhood friends, as if that didn't seem obvious enough. I finally decided to give them a go in 2019, and boy was I glad to watch everything (both seasons and the movie). It really made me see the difference, and I even got a new best girl (Kanan too good, where the screentime at?)

With my A-Levels coming around the time when this capsule opens, i'm giving everyone luck and support over the year!

Predictions?
Sumire wins 1st center
Aqours get a top 50 single / album somewhere (world domination? sounds good to me!)
Seiyuu graduates before the capsule opens, starting on the 24th May 2019 (any one of them)
Niji gets a bad S3 (with this i mean not as good as S1 or 2)
Mari or Yoshiko's MVs get 1 mil views - only because like 1-3 hit 1 mil+ i think
I go to a con (my personal prediction cuz i've never been to one and that would be pretty cool ig)

Take care everyone, and i'll see you in a year's time. :)

First of all, I hope you're doing great!! I've been into Love Live! for quite some time now (since 2017), but it wasn't till last year (2020-2021) that it actually became such a big part of my life, and becoming more open with the community has definitely given me that opportunity. In the past year I've met some amazing people thanks to this awesome franchise, people that I'm happy to regard as friends!! ^_^. It all started by writing a review on a LL fanfic I'd found!! By doing that, I started to connect with authors I'd later consider friends! I also started to find more people invested in the LL series, and it made me so happy to be able to share my love for this franchise with other persons!! I also started writing fanfiction again, thanks to the inspiration of fellow SetsuAyu shippers xD, and I'm so glad I did!! My best girl changed last year as well, Kotori, who had been my #1 ever since I started watching the anime was 'dethroned' by Shizuku Osaka. After her focus episode in the Niji anime, I fell in love with her character and traits, even relating to her to a certain degree. Niji also took the place as my favorite generation in the franchise yet, and I'm so happy they're getting a 2nd season!!! I can't wait for it!! Hopefully Shioriko appears!! ^w^. I'm really excited for Liella stuff tho!! Their anime is right around the corner and I'm totally hyped for it!!
This got pretty long xD, but there was so much I wanted to say!! Future me, I hope you continue to enjoy this series as much as you've done so in the past year, that you still write (even if just every now and then), and that you continue connecting with people from the fandom!! Take care!! :D

I got into Love Live in 2017 because I saw a fellow person in my grade playing SIF. Long story short, this is what led me for the love of idols. LL took up 2/3 of my MS years, and once this capsule opens, I'll be a few weeks from graduating HS. I remember watching Nico Nico Nii for too many hours after discovering what this girl came from, feeling satisfied that I finally connected the dots that this girl (aka Nico, obv) was from the LL franchise. Even though I may feel like I don't like her as a fav anymore, I still don't want to leave her, and still my fav from μ's. And, I still hope my love for Yohane and Rina still exists next year, and idk who would my fav from Liella be, possibly Keke. That's all I want to say, I know next year I'll be cringing once I read this :) - S

Aqours lives to finally resume!! 5th anniversary went by, but due to COVID stuff didn't happen. I hope the girls will get another chance to perform in front of a live audience, with crowds cheering and supporting them. Aqours, Sunshine!!!

as we all know, 2020 was such an important year for love live and the fans. i’ve loved this series since 2015 and im so happy to see it grow into what it is now! as for nijigasaki and leilla, i hope the best for both of them, i especially have high hopes that leilla is able to match the intensity of muse, aqours, and even nijigasaki! so far my best girl in leilla is sumire, but im excited to see how my ranking changes as we learn more about them! I hope love live continues to bring us joy everyday and that there’s more content for everyone’s best girl. love u guys and see you on the other side in 2022! 💓 Btw here’s the solo pull for best nijigasaki girl ai’s bday ur while I was in the airport 😭dreams do come true

# data[].attributes.body
I loved drawing all the characters and i hope liella will be the same i hope all the characters in the group will be liked the same way everyone else is (i predict ill like keke the most) hopefully the love live event comes back too because it was always fun and interesting along with rivals (ft. a hanamaru i drew because shes a cute character)

# data[].attributes.body
I'm a huge love live fan since 2013. Our school idols have helped me a lot on the darkest moments of my life. Hanamaru is my favorite girl because I can relate to her a lot. And Aqours are my favorite ll group by far, I'm still emotional for the Dreamy Color PV, the Seiyuus looks so pretty and sparking. I would love to see more of this side of llsunshine, but the group is getting closer to 6 years old.
Even if Ainya says that they'll won't go away, I'm still worried about what would happen, I'm actually seeing one of my favorite groups (not ll related) and it's really painful. I would actually be really sad if Aqours became inactive as a group. But, anyways I'm so proud of how much they have achieved ,so far, and I'm really happy to being their fan since the beginning.
About my prediction, maybe the sunshine in the mirror project is something bigger than it seems and it will have a animated spin-off. In that case, it would be great seeing a PV with our Yohane getting her deserved center for being 2nd place so many times.

love live forever❤️

thanks to this series I approached to anime world. I still remember the day I found a picture of Rin Hoshizora (my waifu) and I tried to find the name of the series where she came from. I'm really grateful to this anime. It helped me understand that I must never give up and I must shine, just like the protagonists! I want to reread this message one day with joy, reminding me of all that this anime has given to me. I want to remember this moment forever! I know it's not much but that's what I feel inside💖
sorry for my bad english, I'm not english.

i truly hope shioriko gets animated as well as lanzhu id love to hear more about the characters and their voices are just impeccable. the amount of progress and achievements this franchise has been through its still always emotional too see new girls and see the old ones come back or leave if that makes sense. love live will forever be my comfort anime and fandom. Liella i have hopes for maybe a different plot like how they did nijigiasaki however im afraid from what backlash ive seen that the creators might've only held off niji season 2 because of the unfamiliarcy with changes. im hoping leilla isnt the escape goat of it all to just go back to the same old cliche plot.

# data[].attributes.body
This year has been so good for us in love live terms! Aqours got a ton of new albums and nijigasaki got a ton off new albums too!!! Love live superstars is to be released in a couple of months which I am super hyped about!!!! Sega  just released the first three Leila figure tooo!!! Nijigasaki season two will come out next too which also very excited for!! Love live is honestly just looking up and I am so excited for what’s in the future! May 22, 2021

# data[].attributes.body
AAAAAAAA I just cannot WAIT to see Liella! I’ve watched the live performances and everything as well, I think the anime is gonna be great! Love Live has been my favorite series for the loooongest time, and I can’t wait to see how they branch out with this! Maybe there’ll be a Muse or Aquors cameo?? Only time will tell hehe
My best girls so far are Sumire and Kuku :) I’m really excited to see the personalities of all of them!
Much love and stay safe! I can’t wait to see what’s in store for Love Live :)

# data[].attributes.body
I really hope that Chisato gets some more love once the anime comes out. I don't even really know anything about her, but I already feel pretty connected to her so I hope other people will start noticing how great she is.

# data[].attributes.body
I found out about love live four years ago and since then something started, i came closer to the fandom two years ago and that was the best thing I could do. I followed muse, aquors, nijigasaki, and now it's time for liella! I hope that expectations will coincide with what will happen, anyway for now i don't really know who is my favorite, but i think that sumire can be a good and interesting character, as well as kanon and chisato. I'm a bit worried that keke will be the classical boring charter (hope this isn't the case!) and for ren she's my least favorite for now. Anyway hope that i'll like liella like other groups, see ya in one year!

My Wish For The Love Live Series In The Future

# data[].attributes.body
I wish that someday we'll get to watch more Love Live movies whether it's Nijigasaki or even Liella! Sadly, I didn't watch Aqours's movie, because I wasn't in the Love Live Fandom/Community when it's on demand. But it's okay, the past are in the past. I hope my wish came true, I can't wait for it! See y'all when it happens! (*´꒳`*) Oh and yeah, here some love for all Love Livers around the world from ya mate in Indonesia 🇮🇩❤ -Zarkay (ˊ˘ˋ*)

# data[].attributes.body
Love Live is the second anime franchise that i got into and until now i really love this franchise and ive already watched every single part of the franchise including sunshine and nijigasaki. There are alot of characters that i like but whom i like the most (including from all the series) are kanon, eli ayase, maki, chika and riko

I hope there will be teamup in the series (like someone from muse or aquors make a guest apperance for an episode or maybe even liella and nijigasaki crossover) because no matter what franchise i watch what i love the most is when a teamup/guest apperance from other series happen. I also hope that if theres going to be love live superstar season 2 they will introduce a 6th member of liella (sounds like power rangers/super sentai but i think it would be fun if they borrow that formula)

And last for my future self next year, i hope ur still alive, well, already graduated and have a job, as well as having a better live, and hopefully by the time you open this timecapsule you already watch love live superstar and nijigasaki season 2. Thanks and bless all.

# data[].attributes.body
They’re my best girls, and I’m hoping Ren is actually in support of the idol group! If she doesn’t ofc I’ll love her anyway!!
I hope Kanon breaks from the ‘normal monster’ type, (again, ill love her regardless!) but I’m so glad we have characters from different backgrounds! <3
I’m so excited for the insert songs. Go Liella!

# data[].attributes.body
Hello future me, I hope you're still into love live because If not then what are you doing get back to it
Anyways, up until now there's no girl in liella that truly won my heart but its normal because we didn't see a lot of them or their personalities however I think that my best girl would either be Kanon or Kuku as they're really cute :D
I'm hoping that in the Liella anime everyone will get equal screen time so that nobody gets left out and I'm praying that song centers won't be like in Aqours where Chika is the center for everything I'm hoping for more diversity. I also think that every girl will have an animated single so we won't get a fight like in Aqours or μ's votes.
I hope the story in Liella will be different and that they won't follow the "Student Council says no school idols we have to convince her otherwise" because it's getting old and I'm hoping for some new story
Anyways I'm hoping for a good story and I'll be supporting Liella even if they do have a similar story

Love Live has been a huge part of my life and it’s silly to say as a 14 year old girl who has been a fan since I was 6. My best girls so far are yoshiko nozomi kanata rina and kanon. I cant wait to see what liella has in store for the future but i’m not ready to see aqours disband. Speaking of aqours, it was a shame to see their 5th live (Next Sparkling!) get cancelled but on the bright side, niji is producing bangers and liella just debuted!! muse on the other hand will forever stay in my heart and inspire me to get through everyday :) I recently bought the muse live collection cd and i cant stop watching it. Hajimari wa kimi no sora is such a good song and so is deep resonance along with angelic angel ! My dream when i was younger was to become a seiyuu for the bushiroad franchise and still is. I dont know if i could achieve it but it is possible. i’m gonna end on this note so see this letter in the future? music forever!

From me to the future me

Hi, I'm from the future. I hope you are still interested in Live Love and still got all the Umi Urs in All Stars.

I was not much interested in Liella now so as not to spoil my intrigue. I would really like to see if there will be the main signs that you are watching Live Love, and not some other anime about idols. By signs, I mean distinctive features such as a student council that prohibits the creation of a school idol club or school closings (I hope these signs will not be there).

In general, I think that it would be nice to get acquainted with the seyuyu characters from Live Love, as many people talk about them, but I do not understand at all what they are talking about.

I also hope Mų's will come to life and crunch a couple of songs (otherwise I listened to Song for you you you 100 times already

If your favorite idols have changed, here's who you liked in 2021

from Mų's: Umi, Rin
from Aquors: Ruby
from Nijigasaki: Shioriko, Kazumi and Shizuku.

I also hope you stopped being a light potato and started learning.

I know I keep shilling this art to everyone else but I demand KLab to add Liella! to ALL-STARS or else I'm gonna riot-

Nah, in all seriousness, since Liella! songs are being added to both SIF and LLAS, I can't think of anything but a possibility if Liella! is actually added to the games. Kanon has been my best girl ever since day 1, and there's no changing that (ehem, for now)

To see Love Live grow as an actual idol "agency" is something I definitely want to see happen, and I'm glad they're still providing some goodies during this pandemic. Up till now, Love Live has been my go-to media involving music and anime, and it's probably something I could never escape of.

Something to lock in is my best girls for every group:
μ's: Maki, Hanayo, Honoka
Aqours: You, Hanamaru, Chika
Nijigasaki: Yuu, Setsuna, Kasumi
Liella!: Kanon, Sumire, Ren

Apart from Liella! in LLAS, I WANTED A BANDORI X LOVE LIVE COLLAB GDI

With the LL world expanding, sometimes it’s a bit hard to catch up on everything happening. As a young fan who knew about LoveLive back in 2014 (omg I was 10) and my love for it grew from there, I hope whatever future happens for any of the groups, they will be able to walk down similar paths as how µ's did. Where Aqours, Nijigasaki and Liella get their own final lives too and I would be able to watch them. I hope that the seiyuus no matter what they face through that they will rely on each other and be safe and healthy.

One year from now, I want to make more memories with all the LoveLive groups, walking down the path of flowers with the other fans who love LoveLive as much as I do! Let’s hope that we have more great live shows, anime series and anime expos with LoveLive Merch we can get! I also want to have LL Plush of my Fav girls- Umi,Maki,Riko,Mari,Setsuna,Shizuku,Ren,Sumire! With that wishing all LoveLive fans all over that the best is yet to come with new fun exciting things will await us! 🌸❤️☺️

Hello!!! I'm sure that by next year, I (or in this case, you) am still into Love Live, with hopefully a complete set of Muse love live nendoroids.. Regardless, I do hope Liella will soon announce more of their figurine merch when the anime is released! Five nendoroids is definitely cheaper than nine ;;

I feel as though Kanon and Keke will be the ones who will start the group, and that the hardest to convince them to join would be Ren. With the Anime teaser where we saw Honoka's name, I'm hoping one of Muse, especially Honoka, would make an appearance. Perhaps a way for Liella to be more encouraged! Also, I wonder who would be the rival idol group as well..

Regardless, I am definitely going to enjoy watching Superstar!! <3

P.S: Ren x Sumire and Ren x Kanon gives off KotoUmi+NozoEli and HonoUmi vibes lmao

Back when Aqours was first released, I was one of its none-supporter. I was comparing the characters to u's, saying they're the love child of this and this or just outright saying they're basically another character. I watched the season 1 while thinking, they're basically just u's, why should I watch and support them. Heck, I don't even listen/play their songs on SIF in denial that they're good; and I automatically feed their cards to power my u's ones.

I didn't get back to Love Live again until I was in my senior year. Out of the blue, I stumbled into one of Aqours niconama stream -- I think it was sexy home tutor. I didn't know who these people are and I wasn't even interested watching seiyuu content back then. But, I laughed and enjoyed it and I watched another stream, then another, and another. I started learning more about the seiyuus and falling in love with them.

I downloaded all the lives I could get my hands on and I started to like Aqours for themselves. I rewatched the anime with this new love and appreciation in my heart and actually enjoyed it. I hate myself for thinking that it's the same as u's when it isn't. Aqours is different from u's; and I ended up consuming more Aqours content.

When I first heard about Nijigaku, I was interested instead of outright rejecting them like what I did to Aqours the first time. It's surprising to see SIF characters being an actual main anime characters so it's exciting. I instantly fell in love to Ai and Ayumu though and I tried to get as much info as I can about them. I only learned about Nijigaku before the Fest, so it was exciting to actually see them when I watched one of the delayed viewings. And, I love them even though I barely know their C&R and I just memorized their nicknames that day.

I loved their anime, their songs, I haven't finished the story yet in my all stars because I'm lazy and don't have time but I love the story so far. I'm excited to know what they're going to do against Lanzhu and getting more songs. I'm even watching Shu's youtube videos without knowing anything about her except that she's a part of prima porta, fluent in English and she's really pretty like wow.

Then, Liella was announced and I was hyped. More Love Live content, new characters, new seiyuus and new songs? Yes! I'm going to fall in love to these new people and characters and I get to hear songs with a different feel and character. And they're going to go thru a K-On-ish style where the characters are in the same year; which is a major plus since I started watching Love Live in the first place because I wanted something similar to K-On.

I'm excited to learn more about Liella and Nijigaku. I haven't memorized all of their names yet but it will happen eventually. I have no actual best girl from Liella yet though since all of them seem to be great to me. But, I do like Sumire more because I have a blonde-bias. As for the seiyuus, I just found them all hilarious and so chaotic. Nagi-chan is obviously number one in the meme chaotic category but I'm loving Sayurin's deadpan replies and being a sort of straight man to Nagi-chan's shenanigans. I'm still reeling at the fact that some of them are younger than me though. I'll continue to support every Love Live group with my whole heart and I can't wait to learn and enjoy more about them as more years pass.

My thanks to Love Live

I just want to thank Love Live for being an actual life changer. Love Live has inspired me to pursue things like art, has led me to meet so many of my current friends, and is the reason why I like anime in the first place! Love Live got me to a place I never dreamed of having and as I've mention I really want to thank them for that, but theres one girl in particular who I want to thank because she was the one and only person who got me into Love Live and that girl is Nico. After watching a certain Natsuki vs. Nico rap battle, Nico really caught my attention and so I watched the anime and at first I was a little bit toxic towards it because well I was young, barely understood anything, and school work kept me from watching it without interruption but for some reason I didn't want to leave it so easily so I rewatched it one summer and I loved it! And that's where my journey started and its all because of Nico, so in conclusion... Thank you Love Live! Thank you Nico!

(art of Nico I made as thanks)

The list of my favorite Liella! girls from best to “worst” (I love them all) - Keke, Sumire, Kanon, Ren, Chisato!

# data[].attributes.body
No tengo idea si este es el primer comentario en español, pero bueno. Empecé conociendo Love Live gracias a un animatic del Garasu no Hanazono, ahí empezó mi travesía. Le debo mi vida a toda la franquicia, no se que haría sin LL!, son por así decirlo “mi estabilidad emocional”, pero dejemos de hablar de mí...Realmente espero DEMASIADO de SuperStar!! en mi punto de vista, han empezado con el pie derecho y hasta puedo decir; que puede que superen a Aqours. SumiRen mi religión, lo veo como un futuro KananMari/NozoEli/EmmaKarin, de paso que las 2 van a estar en una subunidad al estilo DiverDiva. Viendo a Liella!, las siento más como idols de verdad, sin la necesidad de forzar la voz. En fin, buenas vibras para todas y éxitos.

im writing this right now as i look up at my love live posters on the wall in front of my desk!! i love all the seasons of love live, the characters, the games, the music, the EVERYTHING so SO MUCH!! i will never ever forget when i watched the muse series for the first time. I immediately realized how much i love Honoka, and she has remained my best girl from the minute i saw her on screen. her committment to creating something she loved and could be proud of really resonated with me. one of my biggest memories from the muse series was when they were all sobbing at the train station when they realized that, after the third years graduate, they will no longer be together. that moment felt so real and personal, and i felt like i was there with them. the bond that these characters have means the world to me!!  when i watched sunshine!!, i was so happy with the references to muse, and how they almost singlehandedly inspired chika to create an idol group. watching her growth from starting aqours simply bc she was inspired by muse, to trying her hardest to do something new and exciting to further the bond with her friends made her grow on me so much. i know she tends to be compared to honoka a lot, but she really is an incredible character on her own. everyone in aqours is amazing! i really really adored the story of You feeling as though riko was coming between her and chika. that really is a thing that happens in real life, and i loved how it was handled with a mutual love between the three. riko and You's part together in miracle wave (where they highfive and sing together) makes me so HAPPY!!! i feel like that small moment was a really big part of their relationship. miracle wave, and the storyline around that song, is actually one of my fav aqours moments. when kanan is challenging chika to do the flip, you can tell by her stance and expression that she KNOWS this is something chika is capable of, and she has no intention of going soft on her or letting her give up. that complete trust in chika makes me cry every time. i know kanan and chika were friends before aqours, and chika definitely looked up to kanan, especially after learning that she had been in a group prior to aqours. without kanan's support, chika would never have had that moment. hanamaru is my best girl from aqours!! i dont even  know how to explaing my love for her, but seeing her makes me smile!!! i love her !! when nijigaku was announced, i immediately fell for ayumu. i think shes a wonderful character, and SO CUTE! honestly, i still havent finished the nijigaku anime, so i dont know much more about it, but ayumu is so incredible. her and yu are two of my favorites. i also just love the concept of yu as a character. i think she is wonderful and having her, an idol fan who just supports from the sidelines, is so sweet. its like we are all in the anime with them being thier biggest support. i am INCREDIBLY excited for the superstar anime. i feel like each of the girls are so beautifully designed, and they seem like theyll have wonderful stories to tell us. so far, im in love with kanon. she is so cute, and i love her more tomboyish look and attitude. i think her and chisato could be the type to be lifelong best friends that were close way before we meet them. I think sumire and ren will DEFINITELY be shipped together, as the one more spacey goofy girl and the quite more serious girl, but i think a big friendship between sumire and keke would be so funny and sweet!!! i think they could get into some big hijinks together. im literally getting emotional typing this. i really hope they'll lean into kanon's tomboy personality and fashion choices without forcing her to eventually love all things frilly and cute. almost like the opposite of rin's story. i want kanon to be comfortable performing, but not have to sacrifice her own style and interests in order to be a perfect sparkly girly idol. i hope keke will get to be as over the top as she wants in her casual outfits!! i want to see her dressed up like how ruby was when she was preparing to go to the city!! LOL okay finally i want to talk about the seiyuus. they do so much hard work to bring us content!! lives, livestreams, voice acting, singing.. etc etc. they are doing the MOST in every category and i have so much respect for them.  i hope one day i can go to a live and meet them! i would be so happy to be able to tell them how much they've inspired me and made me laugh and cry and dance and sing and be so happy!! OHH!! ALSO, at this time (may 21, 2021) i have two love live ocs!! hidemi is a third year idol, and her image color is purple!! she is friends/in love with my friend jamie's oc yumi!!! they are so cute omg,,,,, hidemi loves to give people gifts, and gave yumi a pair of mikan earrings!! hidemi loves jewelry, her pink and yellow jacket, and wearing bows in her hair!! she is really outgoing, but when she was younger she was incredibly shy and unsure of herself.when performing or meeting fans, she always makes sure to interact with the shyest people and let them know that whether or not they become less timid, they are totally valid and wonderful!! my other oc is named etsuko, and she became an idol SOLELY because she loves hatsune miku!!! in her first couple lives, she wears her hair in twintails just to be like miku, and she always wants to wear teal!! she could talk your ear off about her all day, which most people wouldnt expect because she has a more mature look and seems very smart, responsibe, and put together!! as she grows as an idol, she starts to wear more GREEN as she realizes that she doesnt need to be exactly like miku to be a happy and fun idol. she still admires her and loves her, but she grows to be more of herself!! OKAY THATS IT!!!! future morgan i love you so much!!!

This anime sounds cool so far. I think I’ll enjoy it a lot! I don’t really like Liella though, but this will definitely make me like them more. Full speed ahead! -E

This anime has marked me in such a drastic way, my sadness was gradually gone when I first saw these beings of light, I have laughed, cried many times, but I have always carried in my heart the 3 groups, I love them all even if they are imaginary characters who come to life in my mind, I hope that this franchise will never die

to neru a year from now,

are you still into love live as much as i am now? has your kanan shrine grown? i know i say that there won’t be anyone replacing kanan as my ult but has anything changed?

i hope you are doing well & still happy. as long as you do your best, then there’s nothing to regret (even if you end up failing) right, 2022 neru?

One year from here, let's hope to keep enjoing this great series with the people we love, in this (not perfect) nice community!! I'll watch this with my LL bro, we surely enjoy it.
My prediction: The ultimate Love Live Fes, with u's+aqours+SS+niji+liella where they sing Sunny Day Song in the best moment in the whole LL history :')

# data[].attributes.body
Im ready to cry both during liella and niji im so ready give it to me

I love Kuku so much, I want her nesoberi.
Unlike Nijigaku, in the anime, there will be mention of Muse's and Aqours.
I like the idea of Kanon being a tomboy.
I think the Aqours' subunits albums will be the last new things for the subunits, except for gigs.
I imagine the new Mari's song either to be a Hard Rock song or a song about a fairytale, I think of Rapunzel for the inspiration of the lyrics.
Aqours will end in 2022 or early 2023 with a live like Muse's.

Id love too see kanons masc outfits!!!! Id die ID they did something masc for the lives lol

I think sumire x kuku and chisato x ren will be the main pairs of the group but id love to see all kinds friendships blossom! I love their dynamic in the radio show :)

Where do I even begin? There’s so much I have to say about this series. It’s changed me for the better and through the fandom I have met some of the greatest people that I’m proud to call friends.
If it weren’t for someone who I can now call my girlfriend, I would have never have gotten into this series as deeply as I did. Flash forward to almost five years and fourteen nesos later, I’m happier now than I’ve been in years. Thanks to this series and the people I’ve met through it, I’ve gotten through some pretty difficult times. I managed to get through all of high school and some of college. I became a volunteer firefighter for my local department despite having a disability, something I was scared to do at first but went forward with thanks to the courage of my friends in this community, it can be stressful but thanks to this series and coming home to all my nesos, it makes things a little easier. I owe it all to this series and the people I’ve met through the fandom for helping me get to where I’m at now.
I love everything when it comes to this series, the characters, the music, the animation, it’s all amazing. Not to mention all the characters that have brought nothing but happiness and courage like Honoka and Rina. Love Live means so much to me and I couldn’t be any more thankful for it.
This one’s to you Love Live, thank you for all of the amazing memories

Love Live was a series I told myself I’d never watch. I thought it to be stupid and shallow. Then I actually watched it and was moved to tears. It has been my all time favorite anime series since. I’ve never really told people outside my family that I enjoy it and I hope I will in the next year. But I digress…

Liella is being taken in a whole different direction from the standard Love Live formula, and honestly, I think it’s fantastic. I hope that each of the characters gets a chance to be fleshed out more and that we get to see more relationship dynamics between them. The smaller cast should allow this to be possible. I also hope that there is some kind of secondary goal that Liella will have. Not just winning Love Live and attracting people to the school, but something that the group members want to accomplish themselves. I want to learn about their goals and the reasons they have them.

Lastly, I hope Liella’s journey is one I will never forget. It can’t be easy trying to follow the other installments in the series and I can’t imagine the kind of pressure they’re under to make this one a success. I hope they stay strong and enjoy the time they have together. I hope the fans are nice to them because I’ve seen far too much hate for a show that we have every little information about.

Congrats Liella! Cant wait to see where you guys and us will be in a year!!!

Things were reeeeealy rough in 2020, my country was (is) in the blink of imploding, and I stood in the middle of everything not knowing if there would even be a future for me. But the thing that most kept me going was Love Live!; Aqours, to be more precise. It's impossible to express how the lyrics of Omoiyo Hitotsu Ninare reminded me that I'm not alone, and this horrible time WILL end. All the shows that the staff rebroadcasted throughout the year injected motivation in me, of wich I used to actually learn Japanese. I can't imagine how I'd be if it wasn't for Aqours there to lift me when I was so, so down last year. Now, 2021, I'm much better, learned to reach out to my friends more, and am taking care of my mental health. Chika is a cut above the rest, but I couldn't possibly say that any other girl is batter than another, from all of Love Live!. Every single one of these 29 (31?! 36?!) characters live in my heart, and have my gratitude for everything they've done to me. I don't know if my 1 year in the future self will still love Love Live! as much as I do right now, but that doesn't matter. I know I'll still have a place for it in my heart, for I know what I've been through, and how much they meant to me. But I do hope that I'll still be helping to write this story, together with Liella!, and everyone else.

Quick questions to myself: Do you still Love Live as much as May 2021?! Were you able to introduce it to anyone you know?! Do you still stand by this massage?! Did my hopes and predictions for LL Superstar pay off?! How is your japanese?!

If you're not me and read this, hello from one Love Liver to another :)

I pray they let Kanon say SOMETHING in Spanish!! ANYTHING!! It doesn't have to be much.😆
I think it'd be really cool. I'm used to hearing other languages in anime, so Spanish would be cool as well.
Also, I bet Kanon will still be my favorite.
I bet I'll fall in love with someone else as well. Usually happens..
I also want Chisato to flip in the anime.

Does any of that happen?

Hey all you new fans, and hello to the returning ones. When this time capsule opens I hope things have only become more exciting for us.

Right now we are on the brink of so many new things. Aqours bday solos just came out, Niji 2nd season and 4th live were announced, and the Liella anime premieres in just a few months!!

For me, Love Live came into my life when I really needed it. I was diagnosed with a chronic illness, lost my cat, the virus began half a year later, and that turned everyones lives upside down. Im just so thankful that Love Live, all the fans, the seiyuus, and the girls have shown me that there are so many wonderful things to look forward to and enjoy.

Whether you joined for the music, the animation, the seiyuus, or any other reason - you are family. Seeing some of my favorite LL accounts post memes and fun content has kept me up on some of the hardest days. This community that we have all grown together has really shown me how strong we all are.

So, thank you Love Live. Thank you for the opportunity to enjoy such a monumental feeling. Thank you for making me smile, even when its hard. And thank you for giving me so much to look forward to.

I also wanted to add my tier list!
μ‘S - Nozomi, Kotori, Maki, Honoka, Eli, Umi, Rin, Nico, Hanayo
Aqours - Mari, Hanamaru, Yohane, Riko, Chika, Dia, Kanan, You, Ruby
Niji - Rina, Setsuna, Kanata, Emma, Kasumi, Ayumu, Shizuku, Ai, Karin
Liella - Ren, Kanon, Chisato, Keke, Sumire

I wonder if my lists will change over time! Guess I will find out in 2022!!

Hello me from 2022!!

Are you still a big fan of love live? If not I am very dissapointed. How is Nijigasaki second season? Is it good? Did your best girls change? And the main reason im writing this. Did you enjoy Love Live Superstar? I really like Kanon and breakdancing queen Chisato but I think I'll be very emotionaly connected to Sumire!

Im looking forward to the animation that Superstar has. Is it THAT good? And now not to question everything. It should be 2 years with being a love liver! Hope you're proud because i am really happy!

Love Live holds a special place in my heart right now and I suppose it still has. I hope you're doing well and with whatever you're dealing with is gonna be okay!

# data[].attributes.body
Honestly, I'll start with my prediction of who starts it. I believe that the club will be started by Keke and that she'd start by trying to get Sumire to join cause she's pretty well known already. I feel like Kanon is gonna have a Honoka Chika moment where she sees Sumire sing and she falls in love with idols and drags Chisato with her!! Ren is gonna be the strict student council like Eli most likely. Ren will probably believe that they won't be good enough, since Ren does ballet. Then she'll be convinced and join and they'd be all crazy famous!

# data[].attributes.body
Wild guess; Kanon or Sumire will be faves

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
Good day to everyone.

We're all looking forward to the anime debut of Liella, and hopefully we'll have it this year or next at the latest. So I made predictions, which may not be completely right, of course, but not wholly wrong, either, I hope.

By now, there has been release after release of Liella content. However, other than the brief backstories in the PV, there is little to no inkling of an anime, no release date even, so at this point it is still pretty much a leap in the dark. But staff might try something fresh this time around, if the five-girl group and newly-opened school concepts are any indication.

Anyway, let's dive in.
General predictions
In contrast to the μ's and Aqours anime, four of the five girls will form a club early on. The one left out? Ren. Either she is on the fence, helping (or hindering) things along, or actively hates/looks down on "lowly" school idol activity.

Whereas a club disbanding was only alluded to in SIP and Sunshine, and went only as far a flashback in the Nijigaku anime, Liella's first club disbanding will be actually shown in an episode.

I have seen a comment on a thread somewhere that the consequences of a Yuigaoka school closure will be graver ("deadlier" was the word, I think). Well, maybe. I won't put it beyond the staff to make the drama heavier, though they could be treading a very fine line here. There could be shades of heaviness, at least; they might not want to stray too far from the level of the hardest drama in SIP.
Wilder guesses
Relatives and other side characters may have a bigger influence on the plot.

Sensitive issues such as racism might be mentioned from time to time.
Episode breakdown
Episode 1: Childhood buddies Kanon and Chisato, neither of which are invested in school idols yet, have a brush with Keke and another with Sumire. Just an intro ep mostly. Note that Kanon does NOT initiate anything as with Honoka or Chika (who dives into school idols rather immediately).

Episode 2: They run into a hugely popular Sumire, who trains Keke to be a star, and the two friends are finally drawn into being idols.

Episode 3: Their school idol club is off to a weak start.

For much more detailed episode predictions, see here.

So there you have it.

Please feel free to share your thoughts on this post.

An exclusive, never seen before, all new episode of Maru's Insta Adventure!

Here's a little something I made to show my appreciation for Love Live! I'm looking forward to all the new content up to and beyond May 2022!!

Even if my account isn't around by the time the capsule re-opens, Love Live will always be one of the things I'm thankful for.

With that being said, here's to another year of being completely obsessed with fictional, 2D characters.

Uh, hi future self!  It’s your past self here to ask you some questions to see how much things have changed since May of 2021.  Do you still play llsif?  If so, how much have you improved in the game?  Have you started playing sifas?  How was the Liella anime?  Is Keke still your best Liella girl or has it changed?  Has Liella been added to either of the games?  Or did the staff create a separate game for them?  Is Nozomi still your best girl?  Do you still love her as much as you did now?  Have you gone to any concerts by now?  Do you or have you gotten any Love Live merch now?   Is LL still your hyperfixation?  Are you more open about your interest in Love Live and anime in general now?  Uh, I suppose that’s all!  I guess I’ll see you in a year.

To my dear Aqours, plus a special thanks to Emma

Dear Aqours.

Thank you so much. For introducing me to the Love Live franchise, to an entire world of cute shining girls and of moving songs that has brought me so much. I feel like I wouldn’t be myself if not for my encounter with Love Live. In August 2018, while in a shop in Japan, I came across your figures. Mari's smile was so large, it literally pierced my heart. I froze there, looking back at her. I ended up leaving the store with two versions of her. I truly felt that I wanted to become her fan, I bonded with her immediately. Going back home, I watched the show. I watched Sunshine season 1 in a day even though I’m not the type to do that. I loved it, but it grew so much on me since then, it has gone beyond the simple world of « love ». I truly feel like Love Live is a part of me. The girls are so bright and so diverse. They carry pain, doubt, and dreams. They tell me that I can do my best. When I doubt, when I’m scared, they’re always there smiling at me. When I feel alone, I can turn to them, I can read the bond stories in SIF or look at the SIFAS cards. Gathering merch from the girls is so much fun. And particularly Mari, my love for her is never-ending. She just makes me happy every day. I’m currently studying in a prestigious university and there is so much work my mental strength is drained every semester. Having Mari and my other best girls’ merch with me makes it easier. Listening to the songs from the franchise gives me strength.

I have also got to know the seiyuus, they are such amazing women, I love supporting them in their solo activities as well, particularly Suwawa whose style I adore and whose songs fill me with the most pleasant sugary vibes. Whenever Aqours has a concert, I cry. Their performances move me to the core. Love Live makes me cry almost non stop. Sometimes it’s from happiness, sometimes it’s because they make me realize life is worth living, sometimes it’s because I feel the hardships they went through and it reminds me of my own. Either way, I am glad for all these tears. They make me understand my emotions better. I write novels, and all the warmth Aqours has given me is an inspiration. It’s nearly impossible to become a novelist, and yet when I see Chika try her best, when I see every Love Live girl shout that she wants to keep working towards her dream, I gain strength. I am also very happy to have found such a long series that shows girls over and over without needing a random male protagonist, and with such wholesome friendships & - as I feel it – lesbian relationships. It makes me feel so happy. Sometimes I cry because I relate to Aqours’ lyrics on friendship – Over the Next Rainbow was how I felt parting with my two best friends as high school ended. Now, as the first step of university is ending, Brightest Melody gives me strength & even more tears.

Love Live, thank you for the bottom of my heart. To everyone who has contributed to this franchise, I don’t think you can ever realize how much happiness you have brought – and keep bringing – so many people around the world.

Thank you for the fun over the anime, for the excitement of playing the game, for the singing and tears in lives, for the streams that made me get so much better at Japanese and motivate me to keep learning, for the constant support, for the laughs I have over the memes, for all the times the girls have allowed me to escape reality, and for all the times when they’ve made it easier to face.

I love every girl, but today in may 2021, my best girl list is Mari, followed by Emma, Shizuku, Chika, Ayumu, Riko, Rin, Kasumi, Nico and Ai. I’m very much looking forward to Liella as well, Keke is my beloved and I’m really excited for Chisato’s moves & takoyakis.

– Lucie, the huge Mari & Aqours fan from France.

PS : Now, I would like to add a little note for Emma only.

Emma, Emma, Emma. You said you want to become an idol who makes me people warm and fuzzy inside. This is exactly how you make me feel, which is why I always cry when you say that. The past semester was very rough for me. I had so much school work, it was already covid and I had to isolate even more because of all the work I had to do. At some point I would cry every day because my mental health couldn’t take it. That one evening, I started listening to your songs, with lyric videos. Every word pierced right through my heart and I cried even more, but this time because I felt so understood. « Times where you feel like you’ll hate yourself », « listen to your heart »… Your songs have brought me so much. Through your beautiful voice, I could feel your arms hug me when I was alone and needed it most. So thank you.

Also, I am too living in a foreign country, so sometimes I feel like I’m not too sure where my place is. The beautiful nostalgia you evoke really speaks to me. I also love your interest for Japanese culture, as I’m too a foreigner who is a Japanese school idol fan. And finally, I love grass fields and nature more than anything. Listening to your solos while lying on the grass is one of my favorite things to do. (Oh, and I do love to eat as well!).

Emma, I will forever be grateful. The memories I have of my love for you will never disappear, they are so important to me. It is May 2021, but I am quite positive that by May 2031, I will still be glad for how you have brought me extra happiness in life.

PPS: Oh, and my biggest dream would be to see Aqours live!!! Or maybe Nijigasaki, or Suwawa and Agupon as soloists, or maybe Liella... ? I really hope I somehow managed to do that when I open this again :)

i think it would be cool if ren was just a composer or something for liella at first, and didn’t actually become an idol until later. i think that might be better than just being opposed to the group from the start, because that’s already happened with μ's and aqours y’know? i mean i guess maki was a composer before she joined μ's but that was for like 1 episode

I remember back in March of 2020 and we heard "Bokura wa Ima no naka de" for the first time ever and got it stuck in our head for weeks. Finally we said to our self ... "dammit, where is this song from? What anime is it?" and the next thing we knew... We found ourselves a week later obsessed with the group known as µ's. We watched all of LLSIP all thru April then watched the School Idol Movie about to tear up. We gave ourselves a week to recover and did our best to move on to Aqours. Another month, another two seasons finished. Still, µ's held the top spot in our hearts. (Til this day, I still haven't seen Over the Rainbow but I plan to one day soon. So I can't really rule out Aqours that much.) October came along and Niji finally got the Anime they deserved. (As of right now, Niji had my favorite Season of LL anime and Neo Sky Neo Map is my favorite LL song of all time.) Now, as we stand today, we find ourselves waiting and hoping. All the prayers have been answered, Niji will have a S2 in 2022. But anyway, Let's see if our favorites are still the same, shall we?
Favorite µ's Girl: Maki Nishikino

hello!
i know it may seem sad but love live helped me in times when no one else would- i know its just an anime, but the amount of happiness it gives me is unreal lmao

i discovered love live back in early 2018, i was super into the ddlc fandom and through that i found a video called "nico yazawa vs natsuki rap battle" lmao, i was super intrigued by nico, and so i finally found the anime she came from and checked it out- i dont think i ever fell in love with something as fast as i did with love live, the characters, the songs, and the story- all of it was perfect to my 12 year old self.

characters like ruby and rina really motivate me with a lot in my life, i related a lot more to them because of my shyness, i never really talked that much, and rarely shown emotion, but these 2 characters really helped me with changing a little, my mental health isnt the best but im so glad i can go to these girls and seyiuus anytime i need to find motivation.

i wish the best of luck to liella, im so excited to see what they have in store in terms of music, the lives, and the anime.

i hope the aqours seyiuus pv is really good, and we get another one, maybe one for µ's but thats unlikely. and hopefully one for liella and nijigasaki.

and im praying for a nijigasaki season 2 and maybe a movie.

honestly words cant express how much i love love live. it makes me so happy, and the lives make me feel so much better after a bad day, or if im just feeling sad, or angry.

so honestly this is already so cheesy and stupid lmao but thank you love live for being there lol.

wow.. a year has passed by the time i read this in one year.. how’s liella doing? did they eventually get to have an actual live in front of an audience? how was the anime? how are the seiyuus? did aqours get to hold an actual live? how is aqours doing? so many questions LOL. I really have high hopes for the liella anime and i honestly can’t wait for it. Right now I am with my sister listening to music while writing this.. so many thoughts on what to write. my favorite song from liella right now is “Dancing Heart La Pa Pa Pa”, did it change? I wonder what music styles liella is going to do and what their main genre will be. My favorite character right now is Keke and Kanon! I wonder if that has changed after the anime. My favorite seiyuu is all of them, but I really love Liyuu :). In a year from now I will probably be getting ready for graduation and such, so I think I will still be consuming Love Live content. I wonder if liella has gotten some big nesos! i wonder if we will be getting liella interacting with aqours and nijigasaki 🤔 i honestly love seeing the 3 groups interacting! speaking of interactions, did liella get added to all stars? i would get back to it if they added them tbh. mannn, i also wonder how the animations for the liella anime will be like especially since Hajimari Wa’s animations were sooo pretty. anyways, I don’t have much thoughts to throw out, so I will end it here. here’s to Liella debuting! I can’t wait to see their songs being performed live this week at their release event :)

so I want to see it until the end.
Liella has made me simp for Liyuu, draw a decent amount of fanart, and made me happier through the songs. I pretty much watched them grow so I feel like this generation will really click with me.

I want the anime to be like K-On where it's really just a fun slice of life anime, and potentially make me cry by the end of it

I'll see you 'til the end of your sky, Liella.

Heyo,

So I pushed myself to draw my first ever digital art piece for this capsule. Hopefully in a year, I can look back and see how my skills have grown. In that same year, our Liella girls will be truly starting their own journey. I wish them all the best of luck, and shall be cheering them on every step on the way.

Shibuya Kanon - my favourite since the moment I first saw you. I hope you can sing your heart out and not let your shy side keep you away from shining. We're both nervous and unsure in our respective skills right now...so let's keep going! Practising, trying, failing and growing. In 2022 when I see this again - I wonder what kind of people we'll both be? Until then, keep trying to find your shine.

Hello future self (or other people passing by)! I figured I would leave a memento and forget about this for a while. Well, where to start...

I remember finding out about Love Live when searching for "music animes" back in 2017. I had just watched K-On! and found in interest in all things moe, music, and slice of life. I finished watching SIP in 2018, and to be honest I found it to be a neat anime - nothing more, nothing less. For some reason though, I remember promising to myself to never watch LL Sunshine!! because it was supposedly "the inferior version" (sorry to all my LLS people). Anyway, time went on and it wasn't until May of 2020 in quarantine that I decided to get back into LL. I don't exactly remember why. I watched LL Sunshine!! and I think this is when I fell into the depths of idol hell.

H o l y  c o w. I fell in love with the music by Aqours. It had a different, more modern and unwavering approach to music production that I didn't hear in Muse (when I think muse, I think of nostalgic music). Especially songs like Mirai Ticket and Happy Party Train, those were my go-to songs to hype me up. It was great (I even listened to these songs to hype myself up before an AP exam dang). I remember browsing the LL wiki and seeing something called "PDP." And that's when I found out that the Love Live franchise had more to it than music and anime....

SIFAS. Oh boy do I remember staying up real late (real, real late) to progress through the story, eager to see what that mischievous Kasumi was up to this time or when Rina would do a face reveal. I was happy. I had something to spend my time with in quarantine. Kind of an unhealthy amount of time spent on that game, but it was time spent well. I still get on the game every day for my dailies, but I suppose with not as much fervor. Don't even get me started on Nijigaku anime. Getting through a another dreading week of school, there was always a light at the end of the tunnel with Nijigaku Saturdays (well, until Dec. 26 ;c ). Now with the release of a new, aspiring group titled Liella!, I can help but wonder how my future is going to be. It's already heavily influenced by Love Live (for better or for worse), but I think things will get better. Coming out from the pandemic, I hope things get back to normal for LL.

By the time this time capsule opens, I'll know what college I'll be attending as well as a better understanding of how my future is going to look; there are also  going to be moments of hesitation and worry. But I can say one thing with certainly though: these groups of fictional characters will be right alongside my mishaps and successes from now until forever.

You , Kasumi inspire me to try out something new I haven't done before and I'll never give up . You are like a cute princess with lots of courage and with a pretty diamond on the crown!~Erian

I could never forget you, you come from the bottom of my heart.
In 2018, you were nico nocatli, "nico nico tali".  I move towards a competition prize, but also a friendship defeat.

my love live experience, and going into the future

# data[].attributes.body
the first time i run into the love live as a media overall was through osu!, a free rhythm game where everything that can be played is created by the community, and through that, i first discovered the OP performed by Aqours. as i played more of the game, i also found a lot of other songs, but performed by µ's, and through that, in late 2017 i actually found that there was the anime, which to me was pretty exciting because by this time i had already grown a strong fondness for µ'sic. by the end of january 2018, i had finished watching the original love live anime, and i knew that i felt a strong bond towards kotori, as a character, her personality shined brighter than any other, and honestly in a way, it made me develop as a person with having stronger than ever feelings for my friends around me, and always caring before anything else, even to this day, Kotori has made me stronger as a human overall, and its something i can keep going on with in my life.  of course, after the anime and the movie, i moved onto school idol festival, and that took over a LOT of my time spent on my mobile, during college, journeys, and any other downtime, and i surprisingly spent very little on the microtransactions. during this time, i really started building a strong superiority complex in my head that µ's were the only love live idol group that were any good, and avoided virtually any Aqours media, whether it was songs, song PV's (happy party train in particular, i felt like i couldnt stop seeing that online), and LL Sunshine as well, although i tried watching the first episode once, but that just further strengthened my disliking for Aqours. as i continued playing SIF, and the time passing on, i started my collection of figures, merchandise, posters, and even the Memories with Kotori CD, that really hurt my bank that week, but as with a lot of things, around mid 2019, i finished up playing SIF, not knowing that it would have been the last time i opened it on that day, and as well, casually moved on from it, and in general, love live too, although i still had plenty of µ'sic on my playlists to enjoy listening to a lot of the time, and i wouldnt hesitate to view/play/listen to any other media, which would never fail to make me happy and reminiscent.  come 2021, and less than a week ago (19/04) i discover school idol festival all stars, and my mind flutters at the thought of new love live content, not to mention the idea of being able to view their 3D models, i immediately download and open. to save a already long story from being longer, i've been enjoying SIFAS so far, and im even enjoying a few of the Nijigasaki characters so far, particularly Kanata, who i've taken to strongly, as well as Emma, but its still early days, and im still learning about them, but im definitely considering the Nijigasaki anime in the close future, and hell even Aqours im feeling more neutral towards right now, im lowkey considering trying sunshine again, but not before i take a look into Nijigasaki. not to mention the upcoming Liella, they're looking like an interesting bunch already, and with only 5 of them?? im curious as to how they'll perform together.

if you've managed to read through my experience up to this point, i thank you for taking the time, and please enjoy my favourite clip from love live, and take care!

I am extremely excited about the Liella anime. One of my friends has been saying that she doesn’t really like Ren because she seems like someone who only focuses on school and makes it her whole personality so I’m really hoping that the show will flesh out her character more!! On another note, I am worried the Nijigaku will not get another season. I feel like the note it ended on was kind of final. Like maybe there will be a season two but they set it up so that there might not be one. Another thing I’m worried about is Aqours ending soon. Obviously the seiyuu have other projects and their own careers but it doesn’t stop me from being sad about the possibility of it ending soon :( although, μ’s did end earlier than planned i believe, so hopefully Aqours lasts longer than μ’s did!! Either way, I am just so so happy that this franchise is still going. Oh! And one more thing. I haven’t read up on this much so it might be already confirmed that there will be no subunits but personally i am very excited to see what will happen with Liella and subunits. Will they be split up in 2 and 3, or will they all have multiple solo songs? It’s interesting to think about (also i am SUPER  DUPER EXCITED for the nijigaku and aqours subunits songs coming out soon ^_^). Anyways I hope the future if love live holds many new surprises and experiences!!!! See you in the future!!!!! (maybe there will be flying cars in a year?? mirai, zura!!)

I have a bad feeling that nijigasaki won't be getting a season two. Liella is going to explode in popularity though, even more then SIP did and there will be more love live fans than ever.

Though and prediction on both Nijigasaki and leilla

I think they will have both getting anime at the same time since nijigasaki ended in school idol festival and yuu realising her dream and for leilla they just getting their anime in July. And I'm really glad that my friend introduced me aqours and love live not for them I don't know what I'm gonna do

# data[].attributes.body
I’m really excited for the Liella anime. I’m pretty sure they might become my favorite group as it’s currently Aqours. I’m also super thankful to have gotten into Love Live as it helped through so many times in my life. My best girls so far are You,Rin,Kanata,Keke.

# data[].attributes.body
So so SO excited to be born in time to witness the birth of a whole new Love Live generation!! :") 💗 I'm really excited for the anime and all the songs!!! I'm probably going to cry a couple of times watching it lol. So far I love all five of them so much, and I have a soft spot for Sumire and Kanon :) Ren Chisato and KuuKuu are all amazing too, I can't wait to get to know them better!!!
YEAAAAHHH ✨🕺🏼💕☁️💞

Since I discovered kpop I've been really out of Love Live... I watched all the series and films, but I just... Don't follow it as I used to. And that's so sad because they were the ones that gave me my dream and my love for idols...

And I wanna change that! I wanna get a bit more into the fandom before Liella's anime ends! I just need a bit of motivation... But I'm sure I can do it✨

Love Live... Wait for me! An old fan is coming back into the fandom!

# data[].attributes.body
I found Love Live! By a Snow Halation Comp. Of all the muse girls, and the only one I knew was Nico, and I was like "So that's where she was from!" At first, I thought the song was a bit repetitive, but once I listened to it enough, It became my favorite song for forever! I loved every version of the Song 💕💕 I then started seeing aquors stuffs from that Thank you, Friends! Comp. The best version on my opinion was Mari's, best voice imo. I really loved Nijigasaki too, it was my favorite out of the rest, For now, Liella isn't as interesting as I thought, But I hope my thoughts will change soon. I want to see Liella make their big impact on the Love Live! Community and rise 🌟 I hope ya'll are having a good day (Im here from Emmagasaki's Account, I'm a big fan 💕🌸🌸) -@ayamirice
