| This episode is more chaotic than the first one. Those new characters bring more new chaos to the series. Kinako's physical capabilities are worse than zero stamina Keke. Keep fighting! Takoyaki bribing again. lmao..... Liella! loves to bribe someone with food. There was still a huge wall between Liella! and the new student. What they need to do right now is make things to be easier and more approachable for the new students. Who is that new purple-haired character at the end of the episode??!!!!! New rival!!!!?? 😲 bye-bye SunnyPa The Kinako solo ver. new ED was sooooo cute.  |

| Amazing episode again. I love the ED. <3 I really like the character chemistry between the old and new characters. Kinako is already one of my favorite LL characters of all time. Mei is a classic red-haired tsundere, haha. |

| I hope next episode, Mei and Shiki will join Liella.Looking at their mentality in this episode, they are very ready to join. I already like the purple hair girl, she looks like a serious version of Sumire. |
 |
| Damn, I’m ashamed as a LL fan to ask, but where are you guys watching this? |
 |
| This episode was so emotional, i cried with Kanon and Kinako, love both so much <3. Liella for me is the best group from Love Live, they are in my heart forever. 10/10 |
| I didn't think a group would ever be able to surpass µ's in my heart, but SS is just on a different level so far. I'm so glad S2 has maintained the same great pacing and organic development that was present in S1. Very little of the plot and character writing feels forced, especially when comparing with the other LL shows. Can't wait till they absorb the other 3 first years~ TheBasedMaki said: I'm torrenting the raws xD Glad my experience living in Japan paid off jkDamn, I’m ashamed as a LL fan to ask, but where are you guys watching this? |

These first two episodes have been way too good. This one started pretty funny but the ending was so emotional. |
 |
| Great episode kinako is such a great addition to the show |
| Im still amazed at how much I like Kinako! She is so different from what I originally expected. I was so hesitant about the way they'd go about adding new members, but they've actually been creative in the fact that they've almost made Kinako a 2nd "Main girl" (next to Kanon) which makes it a lot more interesting and kind of like starting the series over again rather than having her feel intrusive. Also, the ED with the hairstyle swaps was so cute! <3 |
| Blanks. |
| What I'm wondering here is why AniList has the Liella no Uta anime shorts but this site doesn't..>:/> |

TheBasedMaki said: Damn, I’m ashamed as a LL fan to ask, but where are you guys watching this? For english subs, only Onibe Translation have it and it's from NHK aired. Need to torrent it. https://blog.onibe.moe Otherwise, for other legal platform such as Bilibili, Crunchyroll etc., need to wait until tomorrow Tuesday. |
| Despite Kinako being the most "plain" girl of the new cast I'm REALLY liking her. I usually prefer the more shy/understated characters in Love Live (Hanayo <3) and she's definitely fitting that for me! Also her relationship with Kanon and calling her senpai is really adorable. |
 |
| Mei and shiki <3 our girls trying out each other's hairstyles in the ed is so cute. |
| Nah, Kinako will be fine. Keke also used to suck at physical activities and now look at her. ED with the girls doing each other's hair is really cute, btw. |
| Another beautiful episode. Changing their training menu for Kinakina was sweet, but they still need to change it back for the sake of winning Love live! great ep, i see new rival incoming |

| Man all the new first years are so quirky and weird but I love it. They’re all so cute. Right now Shiki would be my fave. Kanon leadership skills on full display today, really did a great job of bringing everyone together and welcoming Kinako. Best LL leader for sure. Amazing episode, love the Kinako solo ED too. |
 |
| Liella have now the star of david lmao |
| This is definitely an interesting new dynamic we've got with the club trying to recruit new members when they're already well-established: the set-up of previous Love Lives, where all nine girls got together at similar times and from similar starting points, didn't allow for a conflict like what we're now seeing to be explored. And having Kinako join first and only exacerbate the issue with her lack of stamina making it look even harder is a really interesting and clever choice that also ties really well into her personal conflict about doubting if she can really do it. I'm really just surprised how much I'm liking Kinako so far, as I wasn't expecting to really care that much about her when her character profile came out. I'm guessing Mei and/or Shiki will be joining next, as they've both gotten close to Kinako and shown at least some level of interest in the club: I'm guessing Mei will join first and then Shiki will follow along when she either sees Mei having fun or talks to her about it. And the new girl must be a new rival for the group, cos if I'm remembering right Sunny Passion would have graduated now as I recall them being third years last time: if that is the case, hopefully we get to see these new rivals (assuming it's not just the one member) actually perform so we can actually establish them as a threat. My only complaint with this season so far is what they've done to Keke: all she's done so far in these two episodes is be constantly rude to Sumire, constantly aiming barbed comments at her and then telling her to stay out of it when she expresses concern about Keke going to Shanghai if they lose. Every time those two are on screen together now, I just feel myself dreading the inevitable and unnecessary rude comment Keke would make, and it's also making me not want to see Keke at all until they seriously tone it down: she was really likeable in the first season, but I'm quickly starting to dislike her now. |

| Things seem to be looking up for the girls, hopefully they'll be able to get Mei on board next episode The chaos with all the members and soon to be members is hilarious, can't wait for more antics and for when all nine of them become Liella Shiki seems pretty nice, I'm curious about her and Mei's past together New rival at the end?! |
| But why is there a girl with futuristic inventions and one doing crypto it feels out of place tbh. That was nice seeing that the training is not for nothing obviously, it's better not lighten it to attract people, they will come at some point anyway, it's just that they don't seem to be easy to attract especially red hair one that doesn't want to hear about idol stuff so there might be a past issue that plays. |

Ashhk said: But why is there a girl with futuristic inventions and one doing crypto it feels out of place tbh. I respect your opinion, but I disagree. I feel like SS has the most "woke"/Gen Z setting and Natsumi being into "stonks" (both in literal stocks and also followers) fits well. The LL cast has always been missing an actual smart, (science-)nerdy character and I welcome Shiki aggressively. |

The school is located in one of the most fashionable areas in the whole country of Japan. There is a theory that why they did not give the threesize to those girls because this anime was aired on NHK Educational TV in Japan. This channel is focusing on education and culture toward children. Dimcross said: Rather than the crypto. It's Nikkei. I don't know what Nikkei is but it some kind of investment And Shiki is a "inventor" herself Mei knows it since their middle-school year Nikkei is a stock market index for the Tokyo Stock Exchange . |

| This episode was quite emotional. Glad they decided to go back to their usual training. Those who'll join will eventually join even with this. |
 |
| In all Dammn love live history, this is the first time THE FIRST FUCKKING TIME, that they give us a well detailed barefoot animation, my D is melting since i saw this scene from yesterday 😤 |

| Kinako working really hard to fit in with the other girls. Her current stamina reminds me of Keke in season 1.. although Keke falling down from fatigue is still funnier. lol Dimcross said: iunne said: I respect your opinion, but I disagree.

| I think even with the change of regime, first year girls wouldn't join the club. They would just think that they were giving up and stopped being amazing to win the love live, people are fickle like that, good thing they didn't show that, this is not that kind of anime. |
| Ha, Kinako beat the e-scooter granny xD Great episode that got me totally invested in her character. And fuck is the ending cute. |
One Piece episode 914 & 915 & 1027 were a mistake and 957 brought the salvation - FMmatron |
| aaaa the girls look so pretty in the ED!!! purple haired girl at the end looks like a new rival, cool |
  placeholder text |
| Mei can't join soon enough and I'm sorry but even if I was enjoying the episode who the fuck sleeps while holding their glasses, they will end up all smudged and full of fingerprints, if you just don't break them that is. |
| First of all I wanna say what a slapper of an ED that was, I was already a huge fan of the first ED, and I’m glad to see another fantastic one is taking its place! The visuals are so good, love the girls trying each other’s hairstyles, and the song is great too, it’s awesome lol. But now now to the episode itself, I’m really loving the energy Kinako brings, I know her whole thing is that she doesn’t have a lot of energy but personality wise she definitely does, her reactions are always hilarious and she works really well with the OG girls. I’m also enjoying Shiki and Mei, they’re both fun and their involvement with Kinako will definitely lead to them joining the club somehow, I also love that Kinako keeps trying to appease Mei with food lol. And I could tell right off the bat that the new training regiment wasn’t gonna work, if you ask me the best way to go about it is to have new joins start light on the training and gradually reach the level Liella is currently at, I don’t know if they’ll do that or not but I really loved the final moment between Kinako and the OG girls, Kinako speaking straight facts and coming together with everyone, love it. And looks like there’s a new girl at the end, she definitely looks like she might be a rival character because she’s not in the OP with the rest of the girls lol. |
| Yes the ED was very kawaii UwU. The new member is struggling but I bet she will improve the most out of the new cast |
 |
| Trying to laugh about it... Keke, what else she will blame Sumire for in the rest of the show? Other girls not joining the idol club, the fall of stock market that shocked Natsumi, the lack of rain in 2022, the uprising of oil price, Alan Wilder leaving Depeche Mode, Nintendo still retaining their games fees the same from 10 years ago, that one time as a kid when she tripped on her shoelaces or fell of a bike... who knows. Jokes aside, i was satisfied when Sumire brought back her memories of Keke being bad at maintaining stamina after watching Kinako's hardships at keeping up with the training. Ok, come on, the byonic glasses and electronic skates, did Shiki invented them herself? It's amusing, but it's also going to be a headscratching moment as already seen with Mia Taylor from Nijigasaki being a 3rd year at 14 and that already long experience in songwriting. She's also mischievous in a lighthearted way by asking Kinako to ask Mei to join Liella, and she (with a lot of very appreciated Maki Nishikino vibes) already expected it beforehand. Finally... who is this final character? Even if, reading a previous comment, now i'm thinking about too if it was announced that Sunnypa were both 3rd years and thus just graduated from HS turning out of Love Live competition as a result. The strawberry feeding scene in the new ED was nice, but as another previous comment told, the one from first season (actually still my all around favorite song from Liella) was pretty much impossible to top, exactly as already happened with Nijigasaki even if that one from season 2 was still very good. Finally, i'm glad to read again the names of the supporting girls that keep alive the tradition of having alternate japanese numerals to inspire them (Hi-deko, Fu-miko, Mi-ka, Yo-shimi, Itsu-ki, Mu-tsu, and now Nana-mi, Ya-e and Koko-no) |

| I love all these hot, fit girls trying their best. Not lazy gluttons like real girls. Interesting blue-haired kuudere scientist. Purple haired rival too. Nice new ED. |
 |
| I kind of really want to like superstar because the main cast is actually good and likable, not obnoxious but these new members so far aren't good at all. Following the same formula of adding many girls all at once, obsession over idol school and having the aspiration of winning the competition again like original LL which are just sucks. I find it weird that Kinako's aspiration for joining is because of how hard her senpai training and also want to winning the competition, like what? No wonder no juniors want to join. Wait, maybe only the quirkiest girls that want to join. |
