The future career path is always a tough decision for high school students.
With Liella joining the Shanghai School Idol Festival, this can be a good time for both Wien and Tomori to proper join Liella. Let's see... what will they cook for us.

The song Keke sang in Chinese from this episode was Hoshikuzu Cruising.

That was a funny trip.

What do you want to become when you grow up? It's always a big question in every student's life.

Best girl Keke. <3 Pretty decent song and beautiful outfit. It was nice to meet her sister. She's very pretty.

"Please, save Keke-chan!" Is my sweetheart in trouble? :o

I almost forgot Keke's arrangement with her family. Which really have a lot of money, apparently.

A little sightseeing turned business trip. A promotion that made me want to find that pool, but is a open pool not a indoor pool (W Shanghai - The Bund)

Between Shiki/Mei and Margarete/Tomari. I dont know which bonding was the best.

Beautiful older sister.

Next episode is 6 already. Time to strong-arm Margarete and Tomari into joining Liella!. Monmon invited them as Liella!

Liella takes Shanghai! This was such a fun episode, always nice to see the girls out the country and exploring. I was worried something had gone wrong with Keke when she went back home, but it was the opposite. If anything it made her realise how important being an idol and being with her friends is to her! Her performance was so good!

Keke’s sister is a master troll for sending those tickets and staging the concert without her sister knowing lol. But she’s so pretty omg. That family got some good ass genes lmao.

Poor Margarethe still trying to make Liella out to be the enemies and didn’t wanna go on the trip just to end up having a blast with the girls lol. She needs to loosen up. Yea they’re rivals but that doesn’t mean they’re enemies or have to be mean to anyone.

Is it me or has superstar become extra goon-y this season? Like there’s always been subtle fanservice in love live but it feels pretty direct and in your face at times this season idk, like Shiki’s ass shots or Natsumi staring at the American girls walking by lol

usually love lives go international for movie only, and yet liella gets one here in season 3. that means the movie will set place in wien/vienna?

anyway cool episode, Keke solo song ( the stage setup look similar like nijigasaki). and Probably last episode next week for a two group unit?

I wonder if they'll actually release a Chinese Hoshizuku Cruising.
Also 12 episodes and they're having a whole 2 just on saving Keke from her parents...

Compared to previous episodes, Ep 02 & This episode might be the best LLS3 so far. I can already guess that the keke-chan issue will be discussed again sometime. Keke's older sister seems to want to ask Liella to appear in the festival and win it in order to save keke which means there is a possibility of a new rival (idol from Shanghai), it is interesting to wait for how it continues

Actually I have discussed this before that I hope Kanon is more serious if she wants to defeat Liella. What Margarete said is true if Kanon is too close to the Liella members. Tomakanote has a big chance to defeat Liella but it depends on Kanon's own attitude but this is just my personal hope

This is just a prediction but it could be that not only the Liella members but also Tomakanote will participate in the festival and if it really happens it will definitely make the rivalry between them even more exciting. Even so, as I discussed earlier, all of this depends on Kanon itself

Margarete and Tomari are getting closer to each other, also loving those Mei × Shiki moments

A school idol fest in Shanghai, and performing to save Keke? seems like this will be the first time we'll have them all in a full group(?)

Save Keke? Again? It was supposed to be a thing in S1, but it didn't amount to anything. It was a thing in S2, but it should have been resolved by winning Love Live. And here we are again. Why? Keke herself doesn't even know. The only thing she wants is to be a school idol, but that has a hard expiration date that is rapidly approaching. She's not God's gift to singing like Kanon (:/), and there is no way Love Live would suggest one of their idols go the underground route. So what is it? Does she just hate China?

Annoying, rehashed plot aside, this episode was really good.

@Marinate1016 yeah the scene shiki on the pool float made me double take cause it was drawn so detailed and it wasn't what i was expecting from a LL anime. however i'll take random fanservice shots over nozomi molesting poor nico like in the OG lol

Very fun episode, but I’m ngl it felt kinda pointless sending the girls on a wild goose chase through Shanghai, this little stunt by Keke’s sister Mengmeng/Monmon coulda got these girls mugged or worse lol, not the best first impression for her, needlessly cryptic and not even clever trolling, at least she’s hot lol. But I will admit that Keke’s reveal with that Chinese song was really nice, it was short but I loved that scene, as well as Keke’s outfit there. And it was here we learned of what’s about to go down here in China, and that’s a school idol concert to save Keke, like some people said it is kinda odd that we’re saving Keke again but hey I’m sure this performance is gonna slap knees, it’ll also be cool seeing Tomari and Margarete performing with Liella, I’m just hoping this doesn’t mean the new trio will be done after this.

Besides the main plot stuff tho, this episode was a feast of good bits, it honestly reminded me of Love Live Sunshine Season 2 which was just the show’s memes turned up to 100, I had kinda forgotten about Chisato’s circle fetish until now, Sumire finally said galaxy again, Natsumi was going hog wild with the youtuber bits, and I can’t forget that pool scene, the detail on Shiki’s ass blew me away lol, didn’t realize Sunrise could cook quite this good with fanservice outside the performances, also Natsumi reacting to those butts walking by her lol.

Man, Shiki's carrying a whole bakery back there 👀 Were these girls always drawn this curvy? Same goes to that shot of them in Chinese dresses.

So-so episode. One could think that Keke's family drama was already over after winning Love Live but guess that's still not the case here.

I like Kanon this season, I never really liked her but she has been great.

Man, Keke's sister is sexy as hell 😍 and crazy rich lmao
I don't really care about Keke tho, shd was great at the very start for this series, but quickly began to lose protagonism and became an annoying ass character 😴

I'm so happy I got to see a couple of short cute moments between my 4 favorite girls 🥰❤️❤️❤️❤️

Sorry if my english is bad (っ˘▽˘)っ~~~
Btw, cry about it.

This almost seemed a junior version of the Aqours movie. Keke's sister was the mystery woman, and dropped even bigger news at the end. Imagine if one of the girls had fear of flying and didn't join...

PS in the above picture, Kinako had a sort of Nozomi pose when Nico or other girls from generation 1 were behaving. And guess what's the name of her seiyuu?... Nozomi.
