Oh I just pretend the series takes place in a post apocalypse where 99.9 of the men died out and cloning is common (hence why daughters look *so* similar to their mothers)
It's not really white washing if: Every μ's, Aqours, and Nijigasaki characters are Japanese(Except: Eli(Russian), Mari(Italian-American), Emma(Italian, from Switzerland)) Japanese people aren't normally dark
If you want an even more obscure character, that would be Mako Omine, Maki's middle school best friend (appeared in Chapter 7 of Maki's School idol diary novels). Maki describes her as "kind of like Honoka" in terms of personality. She really wanted to go to the same high school as Maki (Otonoki) but instead she ended up going to Maki's dream school. She was a very precious friend to Maki whom loved her a lot (they were pretty close, it seems). There's also Umi's grandmother who appeared once in School idol diary Special Edition (ch 3). She's very strict and, uh, violent to Umi.
I actually did discover Mako while writing this script, but I decided against including her since there's no picture to go along with her unlike Nico's father who is at least partially depicted in that picture frame although obscured. Since she's only really mentioned once I didn't have anything to really go off of, like with Chika/Honoka's dads.
@@heretopissyouoff8439 Look at her earlier cards- far too light for an Indian character, but at least you can tell she’s supposed to be darker-skinned- and then look at her newest card. She is white in her newest card. Straight-up white. They didn’t use their old skin tone for her, they made her pinky peachy white. This retcon of her skin color is called whitewashing, and it can be done by anyone with a digital art tool. I can’t believe you need to be told this, but Japanese people are not immune to being racist. Most anime art styles treat people of color incredibly poorly, either lightening their skin so much you can’t tell (like Rakshata) or by portraying them as a racist caricature (Panty and Stocking or any other show that has the circle lips problem).
@@chantolove so you complain about the animated details to show a certain race but then you also complain when it's not there lol instead of jumping straight to racism like a lunatic, why not consider the fact it may just have been a different art style, I can't believe you have to be told this. BTW "far too light for an Indian character" that's a racist statement if I ever heard, you're now stereotyping indian characters by thinking they should be darker skinned....as if there's never been any light skinned indian. And finally the term, whitewashing is usually used when an entire character's race and culture are changed, not just their skin color, but seeing as YOU obviously define a person's character by their skin color.......hmmm
I love that Nijigasaki is bringing back some for the anime, such as Himeno Ayanokoji having direct involvement with Karin's arc and Haruka making an anime debut for Kanata's episode. They even added posters in Karin's episode that showed off a few of them with the same graphics style to the original SIF game. It's one of my favorite nods in the series.
I noticed how Tsuki never sided with Aqours and just stood watching it unfold and then when Mari’s mom left she bowed and guided her out, idk if it’s a culture thing, or it just goes to show how powerful the Ohara family is in Italy
Some say that the woman that Honoka met in the movie was just a symbol for a future Honoka but Honoka was still holding her mic after she returned to the hotel. Then the next meeting she had with her, Honoka talks about still having the mic and needs to return it back and that Honoka now owns the same model. So...maybe still a theory about a time travelling Honoka. Lol
i still don't get it why honoka's dad doesn't have his face revealed in the anime . and why he doesn't talk in the anime. how come you didn't mention him in this analysis?
That's because I left out characters in the anime that had no real impact on the story. Compared to Shima and the rest of Chika's siblings, who had a lot of time to add onto the story, Chika's dad is also left out because there's just nothing that I can really say about them.

@@AwesomeNinja1027 I certainly will, I might make a sequel someday specifically about characters from All Stars since I avoided talking about them in this video.
In love live there are nearly no voiced boys except Cotaro and group of boys bullying Rin. I can't remember other voiced male character, but i haven't watch the movies yet and my memories could be tricky.
I plan to use that in later videos but for a while I used to pronounce it as "awk-wars" cause that was just how I always referred to it as. Just never bothered to correct myself lol
The N girls, I never got the fascination for them. I did play SIF, but all of them are just fodder for the main girls. Thats literally their only purpose in the game.
You're not completely wrong. Even if they were usually just characters you can use to level up others, they also offered a few archetypes done in the Love Live style that otherwise wouldn't have gotten the chance to be expressed.
Christina: as much as I like blondes, I don't quite like her. Rakshata: also do not like her Leo: oh for...fuck off Fumie is also the biggest, hard-core otaku these are all characters I just try to forget exist. and the list goes on (N characters): Seiran High School: obviously, Shizuku is my favorite here. Akiru Shinomiya and Sachiko Tanaka are nice, the rest I don't care about, though I do like Seira Kujo's SSR is probably my fav of Seiran's SSRs. Shinonome Academy: okay, we got Kanata and Haruka. this is also one of the schools they butchered in the Nijigasaki anime. I really liked Rika Kamiya (especially pissed off about how they fucked up her character in the Nijigasaki series) and possibly Mizuki Kikkawa. they removed Kanata from the school post-SSR. Also: is Coco Miyashita Ai's cousin or something? Chitosebashi High School: Iruka Suda, I mean, come on. sporty girl, constantly in a swimsuit? count me the fuck in. Nagi Shiraki, Ru Tatara and Yuu Aizawa are cute, Nanaka Morishima is a nice-looking girl Touoh School: oh God, another school they butchered in the Nijigasaki series. Himeno Ayanokouji and Misaki Shido play a relatively big role in said series. I liked those characters in the game. I also liked Fuu Saiki, Tsurugi Kadota and Shun Kurosaki. this school possibly has the best SSRs Shion Girl's Academy: Chiduko/Chizuko Sakamaki is a total pervert if you give her a chance to do anything and Hitomi Shiga (my fav from this school) is cute if you manage to embarrass her. Sayuri Hyodo seems like an interesting character. Sakuya Kurobane you ignore (her and her little sister Sakura Kurobane) until you get to the SSRs Y.G. International School: Leo: as I said: no. Rakshata: also no Isabella: fuck yes Rebecca: piss off with your constant temple visits. Jennifer: yes please. Maria: nah Emma: she didn't have a surname at first. also: no Yukari Saotome: the only Japanese character in this group. Ranpha: fuck off weird thing about Mari's mom: she's Japanese. it's Mari's dad who's non-Japanese. why is she blonde? anime logic.
![Lets redesign Marinette!! [this took 3 years to make]](/img/n.gif)
I’m actually glad that Niji implemented the N card girls.
I am too, seeing anime Christina was like a dream come true.
really happy to see Fuu Saiki in there too.
I am surprised Love live has guys in it all let alone having one have that has speaking role
It's a running joke so I can't blame ya
Oh I just pretend the series takes place in a post apocalypse where 99.9 of the men died out and cloning is common (hence why daughters look *so* similar to their mothers)
As an Indian love live fan, I can't explain how many people I got in LL just cause of Rakshata. Also that whitewash shit was disappointing.
It's not really white washing if:
Every μ's, Aqours, and Nijigasaki characters are Japanese(Except: Eli(Russian), Mari(Italian-American), Emma(Italian, from Switzerland))
Japanese people aren't normally dark
@@ShiorikoDesu but rakshata is clearly stated as Indian and her earlier character design has dark complexion....so there is no reason to defend this
@@ShiorikoDesu Uh... and? Rakshata is literally INDIAN and indians are dark skinned. Her skin was lightened and it's bad.
Am I the only one who absolutely Adore the Kurobane sisters, they're like the Kurosawa Sisters, except they are both Yohane.
Christina: Welcome to Bible Study. We’re all children of Jesus
Leo (snorting coke in the back): *kumbAayAAAaAaH mY LORD-*

In the episode 8 of nijigasaki, there are a cameo of himeno ayanokoji from school idol festival.
Edit: okay it wasnt a cameo
Indeed, and in fact there's a few other sif girls present in the episode too, including Christina
I never knew that about Nico Nico Ni
Damn ;-;
sif literally has so much cute girls and only 3 (maybe 4 after episode 9) of them have true big spotlight
Wow, the manga has a UTX student council president among its exclusive stuff, very interesting.
Poor Rakshata. She got whitewashed, and they got away with it.
Whitewashed?? How is it whitewashed when it was created by Japanese???
@@heretopissyouoff8439 Look at her earlier cards- far too light for an Indian character, but at least you can tell she’s supposed to be darker-skinned- and then look at her newest card.

I liked the concept of having other school idol characters. I wish we could learn more about them in a sub series or something I Really like coco

Nico Nico Nii is never gonna feel the same again
Im so glad someone remembered the utx student council pres lol
I'd never thought I'd see the day where LL! actually had guys since the only guy I knew from the anime was Honoka's dad lmao
Honoka's father and mother left forgotten.
Actually both of them were intentionally left out
THE AKIBA REPORTER MADE IT BACK IN SUPERSTAR 😭😭 IM SO GLADD
The characters being the only children or only sisters is VERY convenient. This series reminds me of NekoPara
Well the first episode of Nijigasaki season 2 came out and well, looks like one girl is not so forgotten now it seems…
wait..ur telling me...these are existing characters?
I’m glad someone talk about the UTX school president
This is an underrated video!
I'm hoping, & praying, that we get another "off brand" Love Live generation that is ALL N girls. Not likely, but I still wish it would happen
I noticed how Tsuki never sided with Aqours and just stood watching it unfold and then when Mari’s mom left she bowed and guided her out, idk if it’s a culture thing, or it just goes to show how powerful the Ohara family is in Italy
I'm not entirely sure what you mean by guided her out but I will check the movie again and see what you mean.
They're like characters from adventure anime v:
Some say that the woman that Honoka met in the movie was just a symbol for a future Honoka but Honoka was still holding her mic after she returned to the hotel. Then the next meeting she had with her, Honoka talks about still having the mic and needs to return it back and that Honoka now owns the same model.
So...maybe still a theory about a time travelling Honoka. Lol
pls do more videos like this its so good👍
i really love many of the unvoiced love live characters. they deserve more love and background and so on
I love how Nico, Honoka and Eri have siblings, menwhile none of the Aqours girls (exept for Dia and Ruby) have any
Actually that's not true, Chika has siblings and I even talked about them in this video. One's even in the thumbnail.
@@ghostvalkyrie5054 i see one of siblings
1:50 lookslike emma lmao
6:30 Spoiler alert
coming here from the future, 7/8/9 are in yuigaoka with Liella.
I will double check this cause now I'm curious
I want to know if that street performer is honoka future or I am imagining it she look like honoka
It's not future Honoka, but it's intended to represent a future Honoka. It's a symbolic choice.
@@ghostvalkyrie5054 ah thank mystery solve
for akiba reporter, she also appeared in ep 10 of love live! superstar!!.
God I can not get over the mispronunciations of Aqours and You. IT'S AQUA AND YO.
I think this was like the last video I made before I started pronouncing them correctly funny enough
@@ghostvalkyrie5054 I hope so because it drove me insane a bit and I also was like "You? Like Yuu?" and it was weird
Well you got me with the new girls from SIF and the UTX President.
i'd do ANYTHING for alisa. i love her.
My headcanon for the Nijigaku version of the number pun trend: In 6:39, their names are Nanami (left) Hachi (middle) and Kuro (right)
Love live School idol festival really is fun but ye too short

Wait I thought the street performer was future Honoka, or is it just a theory?
It's mostly just fan speculation
RAKSHATA
wow bruh i don't know anyone of those 😭😭 but i didn't play the game so ...
Cotaro is basically shota Shinn Asuka
1:23 JOSEPH
1:50 is she Emma Verde's relative? 😁
Very late but Christina reminds me of the D4DJ group, Lyrical Lily which are christian too.
I saw all of these characters before
RAKSHATA SOLOSSS
Yo pre Superstars Love Live content
add mai and misato to the list
“Akwors”
MMMMMMMMMMMM
BUU BUU! DESU WA!
i remeber honoka fan grup
Who the fuck said aqours as aqours not aqua
Kind of a random question but if I maximize the bond of N cards members will I get love gems like R+ cards?
From their stories, I believe so. I haven't played in a long while so I don't have the clearest memory.
@@ghostvalkyrie5054 Ok thank you!
it's pronounced 'aqua'
I plan to use that in later videos but for a while I used to pronounce it as "awk-wars" cause that was just how I always referred to it as. Just never bothered to correct myself lol

Fumie is also the biggest, hard-core otaku
these are all characters I just try to forget exist. and the list goes on (N characters):
Seiran High School:
obviously, Shizuku is my favorite here. Akiru Shinomiya and Sachiko Tanaka are nice, the rest I don't care about, though I do like Seira Kujo's SSR is probably my fav of Seiran's SSRs.
Shinonome Academy:
okay, we got Kanata and Haruka. this is also one of the schools they butchered in the Nijigasaki anime.
