Apparently it was suppose to appeal primarily to a male audience since it was initially envisioned with a male member of the cast if what I heard the Snow Halation PV is suppose to touch on.

Looks like scrapping that idea worked out since they're drawing in attention from both a male and female audience who like the yuri undertones.

>>154761930
LL has way too many female fans. It's probably the main reason why LLfags are so insufferable.

Not gonna lie, once the charm of the music wore off the concept felt so shallow and the fanbase looked so toxic.

Fuck's sakes man, the very idea of the girls not being lesbians makes most LLfags chimp the fuck out. It was fun to mess with them with stuff like pic related but they ruined the whole thing for me.

This, only one of them can actually sing.
Coincidentally, she is best girl.
UMI-CHAN

>>154762518
But Nanchan, Emitsun, Mimorin, Rippi,and Pile can all sing really well, hell even Soramaru, Ucchi and Shikaco can sing when they're not doing high pissed as voices. The only one that can't sing is Kussun

The concept of picking 9 random seiyuu and teaching them to sing and dance as idols? I think it's pretty interesting.

No, no, no. That's fine enough. The story behind the anime is what felt so shallow. Saving your school by spontaneously forming an idol group just feels so slapped together as an excuse.

Honestly, if they just pulled a K-on and said they showed an interest in being idols and worked towards being a successful group, and none of 'the school's closing' crap it wouldn't have been a problem for me.

Dirty Otaku

>>154763663
Saving their school was just a goal to aim for, I don't think any of them decided to be a school idol solely to save the school.

It's actually kind of like GuP, where saving the school plot is an excuse for multi tank drifting action, LL's plot is an excuse for school idol activities.

This isn't Eva or something, it doesn't really need a deep plot.

>>154761831
Rude

>>154763663
I kinda agree with you, and that's kinda what I like more about Sunshine, since the Sunshine MC has more of a "lets be school idols to be popular and have fun" instead of "lets be school idols to save our school," although Sunrise is stupid and decided to bring in the school closing plot anyway.

>>154763841
Honoka explicitly wanted to be an idol to save the school. In fact, literally nobody but Hanayo, Nico, and possibly Maki wanted to be an idol for fun. It was a plot device, but it was unnecessary.

>>154761796
are you really asking this?

The school closing as a catalyst is fine and everything, if that's all it was.

Muse LL, got it right with saving the school by season 1 and season 2 being about just winning Love Live

SUNSHINE on the other hand, as >>154763871 stated, not only brought the school closing back, but also kept it going by ending with them disqualifying themselves in the season finale.

The laidback and easygoing vibe of the first episodes were refreshing, I agree, but the problem with Sunshine is that it just feels really gimmicky and incoherent. Obviously, the original or isn't really that much better writing-wise, but atleast they had a concrete objective and a straight path towards achieving it (nevermind that stupid burd subplot). Sunshine was just a mess going in different directions starting from Chika's idol dream, recycling that saving the school subplot, idol rivals, 3rd-year drama, forced yuri, and just an inconsistent tone in-between episodes.
Sorry for the long post, honestly want to like Sunshine for the reasons you stated above but I just couldn't get what kind of show it wanted to be.

2015: hey this is getting really popular, we can sell it to actual schoolgirls, put it on disney channel
2016: everyone loves love live, put it on fucking nhk

so basically, it's gotten more and more wholesome as it needs to rely less and less on dudes who buy a whole case of cds to get the bromide they want.
