| I really thought they would meet someone from μ's LOLZ! but it's just a random student girl that looks like Rin and has a different color shade of hair. The connection of their L-fingers was a brilliant idea from You! 4/5. |

| Don't do it for victory or fame, do it because you like it. Now we go from zero to one :'( |
 |
| That was a very heartwarming episode. |
| -o mai gah -After seeing that they got I woulda liked the rise to success to be more gradual, though -Riko's been pretty... busy with her fingers while in Tokyo -Tokyo trip redux, as nine -I don't know why but Riko's scream when the spaghetti dropped was fucking hilarious -Saint Snow was not the people I had in mind from what Chika was saying -Oh, Saint Snow's the spiritual successor of A-RISE, which would explain a lot of things, actually -Ria's pretty cold-hearted -Well, that explains why Riko's never heard of them -After seeing the references to μ's in the first episode, I was hoping that there would be at least an episode dedicated to the Sunshines finding their own path in the idol world, since their songs didn't feel like μ's ripoffs. -The thing where they put their hands together in the middle and raise them while cheering was pretty cool -Chika did the thing with the feather -Is this the first time they all sing in unison for the ED? Also that one shot of Chika's bedroom before the Sunshines started singing was kinda what I've been waiting for ever since the show started airing. Yeah this type of episode was something that I had been anticipating from the first time they namedropped μ's in the first episode. I can kinda see the rationalization behind putting it so late in the season, since Aqours didn't become a full group until the end of episode 9. However, it was mostly the second half of the episode that had all of their search for self-worth, and nothing particularly notable happened in the first half of the episode aside from Riko's fucking hilarious scream. The new direction that the show seems to be going in would probably be something that appeals to me. I like the character dynamics of the Sunshines better than the Muses because the Sunshines are all goofy, and seeing them act as themselves and not trying to follow the Muses makes for some pretty good slice of life sequences. Average episode, but it shows promise for the future or something |
 |
| Finally they've decided that they won't try to do what Muse did, etc, etc and just do their own thing. |
 |
| Cute and inspiring episode. Loli Honkers was adorable. Poor Dia and Ruby didn't meet Nozomi at the temple. lol |
 |
| What a pity he did not see in Nozomi and none of the other girls in the μs. What a really important step for the protagonists, their growth has become really consistent, as pleasurable as the comedy seen in this episode. |
 |
| I'm glad they finally found their answer. Now they can move forward. 1 more episode :O |

| Seriously, can you make me love this show anymore? It's great how Sunshine is able to pay homage to μ's all the while weaving together a message that it's not about repeating the same journey as them. It's been splendid watching Aqours grow and start towards the dream only they can realize. In that sense, they're ironically following μ's in spirit. I also love how they used the same beach to convey completely different feelings from the the time μ's was there. For them, it was about making peace with the time they had left. For Aqours, it was about breaking away from what was holding them back and finally flying free. From zero to one voice. |

| But, that child who looks like Honoka had green eyes which Honoka's are blue! |

ShadowBullet said: Yeah I like everything with Kanan.Also loved the small Kanan fan-service part with her wetsuit ^^. Who was the girl in the bed at the end, looked like Honoka. I think the girl at the school was Hanayo's ghost. What was the deal with the white feather? I think it's better if the original mu's never show up. The original was better but this show needs to start standing on its own. |

TragicRomance said: lol that was funny. Second generation Arise.Wow, even their rivals are inspired by the same rivals of their favorite group. lmao |
|
| They got into Love Live and that viewcount had me going (OHMYGAH)^3 as well! It'd be pretty difficult to get people to apply for Uranohoshi though considering how most of their new fans don't really live in Numazu and aren't planning to leave the city for it. I hope that they'll find a way to get the students who go to the school they were going to merge with to transfer there instead though. I have to admit that my expectations were as high as Dia and Ruby's when Chika mentioned that there's a special someone who's waiting to talk to them in that shrine only to share their exact reaction when they found out that it wasn't the case. It was even more of a downer to find out that μ's didn't leave a single trace of their presence in Otonokizaka for the girls at Aqours to gawk at when they all finally graduate but that's just simply what they wanted probably because they didn't want their popularity to overshadow the school they worked so hard to save. Even though their trophies aren't around anymore, their mμ'sic had inspired and stayed within many people's hearts for years to come. Seeing that little Honky made them realize that this is how they left their legacy as school idols. They've tried to be like μ's ever since the beginning but Chika finally found out that the answer to truly shine as school idols meant going down your own path and see what it has in store for you. While that beach symbolize the bittersweet end of something beautiful for their predecessors, it ended up being the place where Aqours had truly started establishing their own identity as a group. Now I have to feel twice as emotional when I see that exact shoreline ;~; |
 |
| Great episode. So they all decided to go to Tokyo. I thought that there was going to a µ cameo but it ended up being a meeting with Saint Snow. Looks like Aqours found their answer. They have to go their own path and shine and not chase after µ. |
 |
| So many teases: Honoka has been confirmed to exist in three different forms. Btw, I don't like Saint Snow, that "evil" look in their eyes is annoying for me. Yatsuho said: Ohhhhh, lmao, that ending left me thinking because I couldn't understand why the camera was focusing on the wall. Now I get itShe took the poster of Muse off lol |
 |
| Yeah, this is just a complete nostalgia from the first and secondly season of a Love Live! I am almost choking when they were decided to see Saint Snow, but ended up in the A-RISE academy. Its obvious they were the same rival, still, its really surprised me. They even sat in the same room where Muses met A-RISE in the second season. Lmao. I am tearing with a complete mixed feelings xD It was not only that. Finally they decided to visit the legendary school that already gave birth to the best group of Love Live, Muses. All of the teases were real. Everything. Peoples just already mentioned it, no need much explanations from me. Damn, i am smirked. The feels were so mixing right now. So, in my point of view, that was a great moment to brought back some of the mood that lost, to lit up all girls motivation back in the right track, to finally understand what should they do after seeing that 'zero result'. Yeah, at least they needed to work hard again, by the fact that passing the preliminary stages couldn't resolved their own school problems. One more episodes, the curiosity overtake my guess. Everything can happened in their last moment of this season. Lets see how far that episode to give impact on my satisfaction. So far, this is surely the best of this season. I am very glad. It was surely not a wasting time. This is truly a nice way to brought back your gold memories. I am very thanks with that shit x) |

| I can't believe it's taken 12 episodes for these characters to figure out the obvious, that they can't just mimic Muse and need to have their own approach and style. Hopefully this will be the big step forward needed to give this group their own identity, as these characters deserve to shine in their own right rather than solely because the original Love Live exists. |

| This was a very emotional and heartwarming episode. Be yourself and follow your own dreams. That's it. I'm glad the girls finally understood what they should do. All that µ's nostalgia in this episode was great. Honoka's "time travel" moment was cool, hehe. |

| Honestly I didn't think Aqours would make it to love live, I thought it was gonna be like school idol project where they dont make it in the 1st season but then try again the 2nd season. I guess this time Love Live will take place in season two? Since there's only one episode left Either way, really enjoyed this episode |
| They hadn't played with my feelings so much before... I thought Nozomi would be there but it was Saint Snow's. And on the other hand, yes yes yes Loli Honoka, but... isn't it Umi? The one who is taking care of you. I thought it was her because of the voice that as embarrassing as it looks, my eyes teared up a bit xD I thought it was her and I come to the comments to see and no one mentions it, but I'm 90% sure it's Umi, the other 10% I need someone supporting this xd Only one person mentioned it but I didn't see him very sure about it.  |
 |
| Oh my god. Oh my god! OOOOH MYYY GOOOOOOH- Yeah, I didn't think they would have cameos, didn't feel like that'd fit the story, haha. Was a very nice episode however! |
 |
| Ayyo baby honoka. Time traveler confirmed lmao |
