| Chii-chan looks so good with her hair down. Wien in Yuigaoka's uniform What da f... WHEN YOU CAN'T BEAT THEM, JOIN THEM! LETS GOOO!!!!!!!!!!! See ya in the Season 3 or Season 2 part 2 CONGRATULATIONS!!!!!!!!!   |
何それ？意味分かんない  |
| Congratulations! <3 This was pretty much as great as the first season. I liked the new characters, especially Kinako and Natsumi. Season 3 when?! :3 |
 |
| This season was the biggest disappointment in the history of anime. |
| That ending was the biggest troll cliffhanger in the history of anime |
 |
| I wonder if Margaret is behind a pillar to follow the thought that she made enemies around LL fans. I was okay with the other presentations, but this one I was astounded with the budget to have fireworks around stadium roof. I kinda feel bad for being sad in this episode after that ending. Margaret deadpan face says everything. |
 |
| I'll give this season a 9/10. I kinda feel like most people who hated it haven't watched other idol shows like Aikatsu. Love Live Superstar was never into drama or super serious stuff, it mostly had a lighthearted and energetic tone. The only thing that really bothers me is the last plot twist, it felt very forced. |
 |
| Chi chan looks beautiful with her hair down. Glad the girls won, congratz. Also lol Wien at Yuigaoka. This actually got season 3, first time in the franchise. Looking forward to it. |
 |
| Best LL series by far. Not a fan of the final song, but it fits the vibes. But they fucking played with my emotions at the end though. Although I like those sort of plot twists, like in Avengers: Infinity War. They show that the drive is there and the commitment is there, and then shit on it for fun xD I did wanna see Kanon go to Vienna though, and possibly a "new center" for year 3. |
 |
| I really don't like how fast paced this love live is and the performances honestly don't stand up to stuff I see in idolmaster or even other LL series like snow halation from the original. Still 7 out of 10, not a bad idol anime. |
 |
| New Bleach sequel after 10 years... I sleep. LL Superstar! Finale... Real shit. Probably is just recency bias but after LL Sunshine, this might be my favorite LL generation so far. On general basis I loved all 9 girls and their quirks, but I obviously had my favorites like Keke (even if she's a watered down version of herself in season 2) and the loveable money grubbing gremlin Natsumi. Funky Coconuts truly depict of how I personally see Liella! a group of 9 monkeys doing their skits on stage. It's definitely my favorite performance in both seasons. Even if I'm in the minority, I also loved Margaret for what she stands for, an early bloomer that knows what she wants and won't stop even if she has to step on someone else to get it. Her performance in Butterfly Wing is my top pick for the whole LL franchise, her moves along with the truly aluring scenography of the butterflies and the watch tower along with a very intense song gives me chills every time I listen to it. Adressing the elephant in the room, I'll have to admit that I didn't like at all the whole scham of Kanon somehow catching the interest of the Vienna boarding school, while Margaret was just the equivalent of chopped liver, despite allegedly being the younger sister of a complete prodigy over there. We all knew Kanon would still have to reject somehow the Vienna opportunity, (although there was a very small piece inside me thinking it could go like Nijigasaki and Yu going solo as some sort of spectator). I'm just glad that the sloppy writing will give us more Kanon for season 3 (wich is a great achievement in LL along with them being the first group to win the Love Live contest). Guess there's nothing more for me to say than, see you guys on season 3. |

| Awesome finale and it looks like Superstar season 2 is officially the best LL season ever with the highest MAL score of any season. The story was substantially stronger this season than anything we’ve seen in the LL franchise. The girls finally solidified their roster, grew as individuals and as a group and the performances were great too. Sumire took so many strides this season, I’m really happy. I was actually hoping to see Kanon in vienna lol, margarethe at yugioka is gonna be funny to see. I knew there was no way everything could get wrapped up in one episode, but season 3 still doesn’t seem real to me! Now we just need Nijigaku s3 as well. So excited for the future of this franchise. |
 |
| Congrats Liella on winning love live, i really loved the new characters especially Kinako she is so cute , Chisato with her hair down is just amazing and their performance was just fantastic Looking forward to season 3 |
nevergain said: Best rated Love Live! series in this site. from the lowest amount of users, too. at this point people probably already know whether they like Love Live and most people that'd rate it lower wouldn't watch these new series' in the first place. even people that were disappointed with this season probably still liked it well enough to give it a high enough rating to not bring it down too much. |
| Well that happened i was actually excited that they all agreed to let her go and then i had a feeling wait they can't do a new season if she goes away for over a year then they drop that bomb on us at the end i said i'd give it a 7 if they coped out overall this season was still fun and good but it was very much a setback from S1 and the new group of girls really didn't add much to what was the best part about superstars being it's smaller group of girls compared to the classic 9 also coming off Nijigasaki earlier this year and other idol shows love live continues to copy it's own plots without doing that much different this was almost 1:1 to Nijigasaki S2 but at least they committed to the going away plot 7.5/10 but hey the season 2 and a movie curse has been broken! |

| I already had a bad feeling about last week's set-up with the utterly-braindead and nonsensical offer to study abroad, but yeesh the writers really wanted to have their cake and eat it too, didn't they? They clearly wanted to play up the drama of Kanon leaving abroad, but they also didn't want to actually go through with it and came up with some very cheap bullshit to backtrack out of it and preserve Liella's status quo at least until season 3. And with that being the case, my question is this: what was the point of this plotline? Genuinely, what purpose did it actually serve in the grand scheme of things if they were just going to take away Kanon's agency in the situation at the end anyway? All that really happened because of including this is that the latter stages of the tournament were comically rushed, and that we also had to rush through the new members joining the group to make room for Margarete in season 2. In fact, therein lies my biggest problem with season 2: I think Margarete's introduction and inclusion in the plot single-handedly derailed the entire season. It meant that, due to needing to spend time introducing her as a threat and then setting up this braindead final plot, time was taken away from introducing Liella's new members (and this is most notable in how painfully rushed Natsumi joining the group ended up being) and SunnyPa were written out of the story in comically lazy fashion. That latter point made it all the more insulting that Liella lost to them last season, and I genuinely think this season would have been better off sticking with them as rivals and giving them more screentime, so they don't have to waste time introducing a pointless new character and can instead put more time into giving Liella's new members (and all of them besides Kanon, really) the screentime they need and deserve. On top of that, I just don't give a damn about Margarete as a character and she will undoubtedly be my least-favourite member of Liella and one of my least favourite Love Live characters in general if she does indeed join them next season as seems to be being set up. Also, I really do love Kanon, but this season seemed to forget that it was about all of Liella, not just Kanon and this episode got particularly insufferable in that regard. That's another point where the Natsumi episode was frustrating, as it would have been much more organic for one of the first-years to bring her in. But no, we instead got Kanon flying out to Hokkaido on a moment's notice for an incredibly flimsy reason because she has to be the one to do everything, apparently. Another problem this season was the songs: all but one of season 1's songs were genuinely fantastic, but this season's were seriously disappointing. Besides this final one and Chance Way, none of Liella's songs were anything about mediocre. Margarete's first song was by far the best one of this season, but kind of loses it lustre for me now because of what that moment ultimately led to. Compared to season 1, this was a colossal disappointment, but still had some positives like the amazing Keke x Sumire episode or gamer Ren. But fuck Margarete and how she caused the writing to implode. 7/10 |
| Are you kidding me? First they force us to believe the bs that is having an elite Music Academy from Vienna wanting to scout a Japanese girl who hasn't done anything remarkable with her Idol group and now, after practically a full episode of melodrama and indecisions, they decide to drop that entire plot-line at last minute? Dude... are you for real? All for the sake of preserving the status quo and having Kanon around for a third season? Come on... then these last two episodes ended up being a total waste of time. And let's not talk about how anticlimactic is to win a Love Live tournament without rivals or any direct competitor. Liella just went there, sang the laziest song they could write and that was it: 1st Place. Such an underwhelming victory. Easily, the worst season of any Love Live installment since School Idol Project. It was mostly a mess from start to finish and the writing clearly reflected that situation throughout these 12 episodes. I was never a fan of Liella becoming a 9-member group and though I like Kinako and Shiki's design is among my favorite ones in the franchise, none of the new girls added anything relevant to the mix. To be frank, Liella should have stayed as a 5-member group and this season should have been focused on developing their bonds even further. And there is also the deal with SunnyPa, an already bland rival, being taken out of the picture in order to introduce a brand new rival with even less development than them. I hated Margarete from the moment she started stalking Kanon just to trash-talk her and the fact that she beat a supposedly unbeatable Love Live winner when she barely reached five full minutes of screen-time was beyond laughable. sigh* And there go Liella's chances of having their revenge match against their original rivals... And on a lesser note, it also seems that the sub-plot with Keke returning to China wasn't all that important in the end. Lots of tears and yuri undertones in its respective episode but not even a mention of it during this finale. Seriously, not even Keke herself seemed to remember given she already wanted to take Kanon's place as the center when the tournament hadn't even started. Man... and people say Superstar is the best Love Live smh. 4/10 - Nijigasaki, still the best LL till date. Stay mad. |
| Love Live has lost it's charm. Original Love Live and Sunshine are the Best series has to offer. 6/10 |
 |
| This series peaked emotionally a few episodes ago. Not a bad season finale by any means, just wasn't all that wow.The prospect of S3 is making up for it big time, thankfully. |
One Piece episode 914 & 915 & 1027 were a mistake and 957 brought the salvation - FMmatron |
| Not so much of a finale with no impact, it feels more of a "wait for the second cour "kinda deal or well 3rd cour and what do you know, the absolute madlads did it, the girls got a 3rd season!!! super glad about it, my favorite group of LL girls, pretty excited to see how Margaret grows as a person and idol, though I hate more and more girls being added, but as long as it isn't a Nijigasaki with a million new characters every episode if should be fine. |
| The Vienna trip is canceled? The ending trolled us xD but this is to get ready for the 3rd season, anyway really liked this season overall, it was better than the 1st season now that Liella got established and got more members, it improved just like Nijigasaki 2nd season I would say |
 |
| I think that ending way too risky. I'm not complaining because I know we gonna get third season, but other people many not accept that cliffhanger and I understand that. I mean, they literally bring Margarete plot just for that ending right. Then why made it like they're cancelling the scholarship? I don't understand why staff took such a risky move? It's not 2 cour anime or part 1 from second season. If they want cliffhanger to hype the third season, why not just made Margarete wearing the uniform without showing us the mail? Haaah~ But I really enjoying LL Superstar, this franchise definitely more slice of life with lighthearted and energetic vibes. The drama not that serious and the Love Live not that competitive. The songs really fits the vibes. 7.8/10 |
| In those last moments where margarete was with the yuigaoka uniform I thought that she decided to join yuigaoka and liella after seeing the performance at love live instead of going to vienna and take kanon's place at the center. I mean I love that she is joining but the scholarship just ended like that after all that drama of chosing, really disappointing... |
| This last episode felt like it did all this rushing and build up only to throw it out the window during the last 2 minutes. Like spend the whole episode on Kanon finally being confident with her decision and then they decide to just say "nah, no studying abroad for you" I understand the writers want to have another season, but I feel annoyed how during this season Sunny Passion was tossed aside and subplots like Keke having to return to Shanghai if they didn't win or Wien wanting to go back home were just rushed for the sake of completing the season with this conclusion. |
