Were Love Live stories always this... dumb? Not going to Vienna because some parents forced you to become their daughter's singing instructor? And why in earth would someone like Margarete need a singing instructor anyways? Man, maybe I'm getting too old for this franchise.

Really sad that I had to move this one as far as Wednesday, but man I just don’t know if I can make Monday night happen every time and Tuesday is a bit stacked for me this season, so onto Wednesday it had to go. But the time I watch this is but a small issue when compared to my excitement to Love Live Superstar finally being back! Man it’s been a hot minute, we had seasons 1 and 2 two summers in a row back in 2021 and 2022, but the 3rd season didn’t happen in 2023, but I’ll take it in the fall of 2024 for sure. So glad to have these girls back, don’t tell the other love live groups but of all the ones I’ve seen, Liella is still my favorite lol, it’s just pure joy anytime I’m watching them.

And this season is off to quite the interesting start, I was thinking with Kanon being back and Margarete going to their school that the obvious next thing would be joining Liella, well I thought wrong because it turns out Margarete is starting her own school idol group and Kanon is joining that, if they actually stick to this for at least half the season this could be very interesting, I’m definitely looking forward to seeing how they compete with Liella, especially Kanon who’s going up against her own friends, and looks like the new blue haired babe is joining Margarete’s group too, I’m interested in what she’s like personality wise. There were some other notable moments in this episode as well, like Kanon having to hide around because she didn’t know how to break it to Liella that their goodbyes were for nothing lol, and I really liked Kanon’s one-on-one with Chisato as well, the OG friends gotta stick together. I also really liked Margarete singing one of her songs from the 2nd season, her’s were such bangers and so cool so I liked hearing it again.

And wow, that was an absolutely beautiful OP, every season has had such good ones and this one could possibly be the best of them all, will have to compare them later after I’ve heard this one more, and of course the girls were looking super cute too. And speaking of cute, that ED was cuteness incarnate, it definitely holds a candle to the ones from the first two seasons which I loved as well, and the visuals just reaffirm that these Superstar girls are my favorites of Love Live as a whole, they just do it so well for me.

Very nice opening, makes me think this season will be more serious... but of course that will not be the case.
Very nice ending too, I loved it!!!!!!!!!!

But now, about this season... this plot is already stupid.
Margarete sings better than Kanon, she lost because it was a fkng 1v9 bro, like, wtf, Kanon should NOT need to teach her anything about singing.

Also, wtf man, the school in Vienna decided to force Kanon to teach Margarete, isn't that fkng unfair? What did the writers smoke this time???

Still, I like the setup here, Kanon being in a rival group now, that is actually really interesting, the sad thing is, how many episodes will it last? We all know they will all be only 1 group in the end, so all of this means nothing really...

Anyways, I'm so fkng glad I get to see Kinako, Chisato and Ren again ❤️❤️❤️
Sorry if my english is bad (っ˘▽˘)っ~~~
Btw, cry about it.

It looks extremely promising, but I'll be waiting to see if they fumble it like they did with S2. While this time they DO have more characters to handle, at least they don't have to introduce them.

glad enough to be back, but not completely convinced by this start.

"Useless school" and you're still already using the uniform, while staying antagonistic, stubborn, sore loser, and even with the audacity to create a rival idol club (early Lanzhu would be proud...) in the same school that just won the biggest competition. Everyone accepting Kanon quitting like it's nothing (even if it is already told it's about working out on a fusion in the long term) is weird. Oh, well...

i think the ED is already better than the one for season 2. Also... If we can go through at least one, one episode in season 3 without Keke taking it personally against Sumire for just existing i would be soooooo happy.

I’m glad that Superstar is taking a new approach compared to their predecessors. I can forgive the half ass reason that Kanon and Wein have to stay in Japan lol. Can’t wait to see where the story goes and how the two groups will eventually come together (give me all the cheese please).

Nice twist. Love that Kanon wants Liella to grow, and she has to step away for that to happen.
Which one do you want? An Addiction or A Good Life?
A) Addiction - a progressive narrowing of the things that bring you pleasure.
B) A Good Life - a progressive expansion of the things that bring you pleasure and includes pleasure through motivation and hard work.

@DaddyDubs I think it happened cause season 2 ended that way (I know the reason for that cliffhanger so audience whether they want or not but force to watch season 3), but still 'till this day, i think it's just bad execution. For Chisato's reaction, maybe that's weak writing, but you must know Chisato already known since yesterday night after Kanon messaged her, so it's just normal reaction at tomorrow, but yeah it's way better if they show Chisato's reaction right after Kanon messaged her at yesterday night. For "logic" Kanon & Wein staying, yeah i agree it's stupid, but this is LL you know, if you watch other LL versions, you should already known sometimes logic doesn't work to apply here. So, what can i say, if logic in this anime bother you that much better just dropping it for your own good
@shiro-seishun I never liked the "don't like it, don't watch it" argument. If you need to rely on that argument, then the product probably isn't very good.

I've stated my argument, even i've given point which i agree/disagree with your opinion (exactly, if you can read properly). I don't like with your statement as if i just said 'don't like it, don't watch it', also I never say this is really good product or smth like that, it's just your imagination (refuting your erroneous points ≠ proving that this is good product) so probably you just didn't give attention to my comment at all. So, what can i say, if you still disagree, it's just your own problem, idc.

Best part of episode: Wien solo. I believe she is the greatest Love Live idol ever. I love her haunting melodies. They're different from all the rest.

It is dumb, yes. But the whole school idol pretense is shaky to begin with. Still happy to see more fresh Liella and Wien.

At least Kanon is staying at school but it's gonna be weird if she isn't with Liella anymore, we'll see how it goes with Margaret I guess
