School Idol Project:
Seasons 1 and 2 then Movie

Sunshine:
Seasons 1 and 2 then Movie

After those two, Nijigasaki and Superstar can be watched any time afterward in any order.

dude you're in the exact situation that I was when I met this series.

To watch in the order, nothing more than watch in the release order. To start, you've to watch the first and second season of Love Live School Idol Project (2013 - 2014) and after Love Live School Idol Movie.

Then you see Love Live Sunshine, the two seasons and the movie, Over the Rainbow.

In the end, Love Live Superstar, which has two seasons for now and a third coming.

also there is Love Live Nijigakuen, but it's a spin off adaptation of the mobile game School Idol Festival.

basically that is

Love Live → Love Sunshine → Love Live Superstar

Spin off:
Love Live Nijigakuen and Yohane Parhelion (no correlation between them, watch first what you want)

yeah, it's just a music video it isn't related to the main plot at all, best to watch it after firsy season when you know all the characters

This is literally why I started watching it a couple months ago. Nico Nico Niiiiiiii.

This one's first. I haven't seen the others, just the first two seasons (not the movie). But from what I've heard, each series (School Idol Project, Sunshine, the other one) is standalone, and doesn't really require knowledge of the former one.

Also can I say, from your Nishikata profile pic and favorite anime list, that your taste is excellent.
