| wow big Ruby or I should say the normal size Ruby. tbh, what they need to do for the summer festival is an idol performance from 9 of them. Yohane's reaction when she first heard about the word live. lmao  btw, the cooking groups in this episode were grouped by their school years in the og and the aprons' colors were also the colors of Uranohoshi's uniform of their respective school years. |

| cute yoha solo finally all the girls together! a lot of sunshine reference... overall cute episode |
 |
| Well, this defiantely felt like a Love Live episode... not that I'm complaining. Them singing together will be fun, I wonder what they will call their Group... maybe something related to water? /s I just hope the fantasy part of the plot progresses a bit further soon. |
 |
| Another cute episode the girls looked like they had so much fun together at Girls night and it's always awesome to see Ruby do her Rubesty |
| Finally, the first episode where all nine of them are hanging out together :) ! It is, by far, the most reminiscent episode of the original 'sunshine', in part because of its atmosphere but also because it is full to the brim with references to the original: Chika and her obsession with mikans, Dia authoritative/formal side but socially awkward, the first/second/third years reunited in their respective groups, the hand-holding on the beach with their feet in the water... Also, is Ruby human after all? I have no idea, but Yohane reaction was pretty funny. Worth noting this is the first episode in a while which doesn't progress the plot/mystery further: it felt like a nice break, a pure sol episode. Overall, it had some really hilarious moments, but also some very sweet ones. Perhaps my favorite episode so far :) Curious as to what kind of episode we'll get next week! |
| Aw the full Aquors is finally together now! What a cute episode. I really empathised with Yohane passing out from exhaustion today. I was on the verge of that a few days ago and got quite dizzy. It’s important to realise you can’t control everything and trust in other people to help you! Yohane has been trying to carry the burden for so long, but she doesn’t have to do that anymore. It was so nice seeing all the girls having fun and just blowing off some steam. Normal size Ruby for the first time as well! I must’ve missed if they explained how she can change forms lol. The earlier theory that she’s half fairy half human is probably true. After all the action and mystery of the last few weeks this felt like a nice SoL break before the real planning for the final battle starts. |

| I might somehow like this version of Riko more than the OG. Her fear of sleepovers and clinging to the one person she knows at the party was so relatable omg. I love how goofy she is this season, and she's definitely still my favorite Love Live girl, maybe even more now. Really thought this was a cute episode and its now kind of set up the end goal of the series. |
 |
| This was one of my favorites if not my favorite episode of the entire spin-off, just pure SoL goodness. Loved all the callbacks and references to the main series, and thought the gags were pretty funny. Also, cute ChikaYou moment despite both being asleep. Can't wait for more. |
 |
| this was a great chapter and I'm looking foward to the concert but yeah... lailaps is making it too obvious he is not going to make it. |
| It was great to finally have all the girls together spending some quality time, It was super funny to see Yohane getting overloaded and about to bocchi break. |
| The girls night had a bit of a bumpy start but it thankfully smoothed out, I really liked seeing these new versions of the girls hanging out like they would have in Sunshine. Poor Yohane tried to take so much on herself and the news that she’s singing in the upcoming festival caused her to faint, not to mention the news that Ruby became big Ruby lol, but it was really nice to see her have such a good time afterward, the montage was very sweet and had a nice song too. It was also cool seeing the girls in their original groups for the cooking bit, otherwise known as the grades they were in lol. And lastly it’s interesting that the whole group is going to be singing together at the festival now, guess we’re going full Love Live for this one lol, looking forward to it. |

| so, there will ever exist a reason why the younger Kurosawa suddenly became completely human? After this detail, it was nice that she said her most famous catchphrase, and also the fact that the full group divided itself in three subunit corresponding exactly to the attended year at Uranohoshi in their original series. So, they're going to become Aqours here as well? Enjoyed also that this time there wasn't a abrupt cliffhanger that switched the mood to dark, no, just cool enjoyable slice of life. |
 |
| i think what they're aiming for is give off that aqours vibe, but not explicitly being aqours and idol stuff. |
|
| Me gusta muchisimo este anime. |
 |
I LOVE AQOURS SO MUCH ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ AND MY RUBY IS BACK! I LIVE HER, MY FAVORITE GIRL EVER, MY WIFE, MY EVERYTHING 💘   |

Sorry if my english is bad (っ˘▽˘)っ~~~ Btw, cry about it.  |
| Reject human Ruby, embrace motorbike Ruby. |
| Can't blame Yohane for passing out. That entire first half was like nightmare fuel for introverts. GambaRuby!/5 episode. |
| great episode. Feels like LL Sunshine season 3. lol looking forward to their group song. :) |
| Yohane used to carry a heavy load for a while, but now she doesn't need to do that. It was really enjoyable to watch the girls having a great time and relaxing as per usual. Also, Ruby on a regular size this time, which was cool! |
LOL @ She's so cute. |
| Nothing Written Here But Us Anime Bunnies *boing boing boing* |
| Well despite Yoshiko losing her staff, it was an overall wholesome festival experience with a group song at the end to finish it off! |
 |
| Very cute and wholesome episode. |
| I've been in a situation like that before. Taking on too much that you forget what the whole point was to begin with. |
 |
| I'm glad to see all of them together! Ruby's normal size was too small on that day; I wonder why. Lailaps is also a great advisor to Yohane, whether needed or not. Lailaps is always looking out for a happy Yohane. |
 |
| Cute to see them having this girls party together, especially on that seaside environment |
 |
| Yohane plan's going up in smoke made me think of Kasumi from Nijigasaki. The reunion of Aqours had me smiling the whole time. The nods to the main series had me quite emotional since I never thought I'd see them back together again in another tale. |
