I absolutely adore Love Live! I like idol anime in general, but Love Live really hits hard for me. It actually gave me one of my dreams for the future; to be an idol too. Idk if it'll ever happen, but I am trying my hardest! I practice singing, and I try to learn anime dances so that it might make me better at learning choreography in the future. Thanks to Love Live, I have a real goal I want to work towards. Before Love Live, I was just a little girl that had no aspirations for the future other than living with my parents for the rest of my life while being obsessed with anime. Now, I have something I genuinely want to do, and I couldn't be happier. I will forever be grateful to Love Live for this, even if my dream doesn't come true
Something that would really help is getting vocal and dancing lessons. They’re super helpful for enhancing your skills and you’ll learn how to do these skills like a professional. I have done singing lessons for years now (not so much dancing but I learned overtime by myself) and it’s helped me expand my vocal range to the point where Love Live songs are easier to sing. I’d also suggest trying musical theater! It’s not the same as being an idol, but it helps you with getting over stage fright while also helping you coordinate singing and dancing at the same time while in front of other people. Whenever I perform, I always imagine myself being an idol and it helps me immensely. Go for your dreams!!
I completely missed this comment somehow, but that's a super inspiring story. Wishing you the best of luck in your dream and hope you get where you want to!
I really hope you reach it! If you do, don't forget to come back to this video cause your story that hasn't been wrote yetis really inspiring. Ganbare!!!!
Love Live (mainly anime and music) helped me get through some very difficult times couple of years ago as well. It still is a very important part of my life because of that. Haven't been to a live yet (I was and still am broke as fuck, being on other side of the world doesn't help) but hopefully I will be able to some day.
You got to study in Japan AND attend Aqours' 4th live? You're an inspirational madlad But in all seriousness, I fully agree with your points in the video; especially at 7:25. It's amazing how the simple concept of idols can be a source of motivation and even change your life.
Yeah, I think people sometimes judge anime too much by how deep or dark the story can be, but forget that sometimes a simple success story can also serve a different purpose, which is being a source of motivation
I found out about Love Live when I was around 12. My "edgy teenager" phase was starting to show up and I was just antisocial. I never understood people who were acting girly. When the pandemic started, I was searching for something to watch. Then wanted to give the "nico nico nii anime" a try. And man... it was a literal experience. I don't know what exactly was special about it (I still don't) but even though it sounds like a joke it changed my whole damn life. I actually had the courage to act more feminine and started talking with my friends in class more. I also learned some dances from Love Live that increased my stamina as well. I'm 15 and I can definitely say that I feel less cringe and way happier than 3 years ago. I'm so grateful.
i only just stumbled upon this video, but this was truly inspiring to watch. it’s so awesome that this anime inspired you enough to live your dream and find so much happiness!! when i watched this show for the first time i balled my eyes multiple times and would constantly think about wanting to escape from my current way of life and maybe even inspire other people along the way. im still in a depressive state but videos like these always remind to keep moving forward ❤️
I wanna see more i wanna see more!!! This video is so amazing because you told me that there is someone else on this earth who has the SAME STORY AS ME WITH LOVE LIVE and attracted many commenters who share the same!!! My story ofc is unique to me, but I always refer to Love Live as the anime that changed my life and inspired me to become who I am today. Wanting to be caring like Nozomi, understanding the difficulties of insecure characetrs like Hanayo and Rin, seeing the way they accepted Nico despite her flaws and decided to heal her and not to hurt her like everybody else would... Because they cared. I had a feeling that this can be real. I didn't let people who stand in lower standards than the Love Live characters affect me, and I didn't let myself fall from the standards the Love Live characters set for me. Be caring. Be kind. Be gracious. Be generous. And don't judge people without listening to their whole story. It's that simple It was told again and again through different stories. Yohane, Mari and Kanan, Ruby and Hanamaru... Especially the Mari and Kanan drama felt like a clear reminder and a new lesson, not to let that happen in my life. Not to let misunderstandings shape the way my life goes and steal away the most important things by far from me. And they were right. I was always grateful and looking forward to more lessons from them. And I found that analyzing the details of the anime with other fans proved impactful in unveloping whole stories that I didn't notice. Also, why do we consider anime with war more realistic than anime with jokes? The jokes don't take away the lessons. This is the easiest form to learn from, slice of life
My story to Love Live is like the opposite to you. I'm a massive Shupporter just in 2020 after that one podcast episode. The fact that she said that she defied her parents' wish so nonchalantly and without any regrets despite not being that successful of a voice actress really resonate with me as I was completely squeezed by my parents on every single aspect of my life and after that, I learnt a lot more, tried a lot more, being healthier and more positive. After that, I watch the Niji anime (I never touched any of the other groups, games or magazines and mangas) and got inspired a lot.
Why not watch the other groups too? Love Live's writers and the people who handle it really do an amazing job and the brand's quality is good in every group but in different ways
I remember stumbling across love live! during the pandemic so i was very late to discover it thanks to the nico nico nii memes, and it's one of my favorite idol animes till this day, it was a time when i had to work from home i was bored and i needed to find something to do and love live! Just clicked on to me in so many levels, so many relatable moments where i had a dream to be able to play electric guitar but due to the pandemic love live! was my only comfort to wanting to play it, overall its the very reason why im very fond of music
I think that every person who learns to love anime has one particular show that speaks to them on a personal level. Something that gave them the exact right message at the exact right time. For me it was Girls' Last Tour. I encountered that gem during the first winter of COVID-19, and its message of 'learn to get along with the hopelessness' was oddly comforting. I'll definitely give 'Love Live' a look. Thanks for making these videos!
Very true. I haven't seen Girls' Last Tour either but I've heard very good things about it so I plan to give it a watch when I have time. I really like anime that send some sort of message that can resonate with people. And thanks for enjoying the vid, really appreciate it!
Great video! It’s nice to see people talk about their experiences with the franchise. I also found Love Live in high school. At the time, I was an athlete. Near the beginning of my freshman year, I found Love Live…because I found Umi hot. Yeah, I found this series through simping. However, I experienced this group work their asses off to achieve their dream. I wanted them to succeed because of that journey. I related that to my sports. This series helped me enjoy the grind and the journey, and I achieved things I thought were once impossible. I have continued to follow the series because of the characters, the music, and most importantly because it just makes me happy. It’s no where near as deep or well made as other series so sometimes I wonder why I like it so much. The answer is probably just because it just gives me such a positive feeling and honestly, that’s enough.
It's actually as deep as other shows if not one of the deepest ones, just like songs where the music is happy but the lyrics are sad, it's not presented like that exactly I suppose I learned literature analysis in school and Love Live is definitely as deep as any "serious" appearing shows. And has changed my life. If I reflect on the stories, they are just true in my life. So true. In real life. And they're often presented in a joking way because that's fun but there are the scenes where it gets real, you know what I mean?
Finally someone who understands my vision of love live. Thid anime is not just an anime, it's a hand that pushes me forward when i think there id no one by my side. I'm not alone, there is honoka, chika, and all those girls who reachef their dreams.
Love live gave me the desire to do something with my life. It helped me go through difficult times. Times were I felt hopeless and aimless. I felt like I wasn't meant to do something great... I wasn't special or talented enough after all... But Love Live managed to convince me otherwise. I still haven't figured my life completely out, but Love Live gave me an important push forward. It gave me hope. Thanks for sharing your story. It was really inspiring.😊
I think many fans are people who could push their lives forward because of love live. This franchise just has that kind of power. Glad Love Live could be an inspiration to you too!
Love Live is the best thing that ever happend to me. Attending Aqours 5th live and Love Live fest were the best days of my life. I was also extremely lucky during LL fest day 2 because I was sitting in 4th row and at the portion where they go around in carts, I got a lot of waves from various seiyuu (Anchan, Aikyan, Suwawa), but the most special one was Ucchi (seiyuu of my waifu Kotori) who directly pointed and then waved at me when she saw that I was waving at her like crazy with my white penlights. Unfortunately nobody from Nijigasaki noticed me. I was waving around with blue, but Miyutan just went past me (she was looking up). But it was amazing, I was literally like 2-3 meters away from the seiyuus and due to being 4th row I was at their eye level. It's funny how small they are in real life lol. To get back to he video, I really enjoyed it, but I have to disagree with 1 point though. I don't think that the Love Live lines are cheesy or that the plot is simple. The plot is really as deep as you can get with idol anime. There are some great quotes about life to be found in Love Live, especially from Honoka and Chika (and Nozomi). There's also a lot of symbolism that flies over a lot of fan's head (the feathers, birds, lyrics, adult Honoka in the movie). The main plot may be simple (idol group wants to win idol tournament), but if you count all the little details, Love Live is pretty deep compared to other idol anime. Unfortunately they changed that with Niji and Liella anime (especially Liella seems to be more kid and family friendly since it airs on NHK), but my point remains. If you go back and watch the original and Sunshine, it's filled with great quotes. Sometimes you unfortunately have to know the manga too. For example, Nico always says how idols have to make people smile, and that's because her dad died when she was young and since her mother works all day to take care of Nico and her siblings, Nico had to find a way to make her siblings always smile. Therefore she wants to be an idol which makes fans smile. But yeah, you're exactly right. Love Live is definitely motivating a lot of people to try something new. Once you open your heart to Love Live there's no going back!
Bruh I'm jealous of your LL fes seat, I was busy so I had to settle for live viewing. Imo for the anime, Sunshine was by far my favourite because of the 'failure' theme they tackled and Chika's entire story and how she grows. I still think Muse was a bit too straight forward for me to convince people that it has a 'deep' story by any means, but I still think the striaght forward story is well done. I see it in the same light as something like Hibike Euphonium where the main story is straight forward but the characters and their motivations are what makes the show amazing. You're definitely right that some characters are not by any means one-dimensional and Love Live has some goddamn amazing quotes that still ring in my head to this day. Anyway, glad you enjoyed the video!
@@redjoker Thanks. Yeah, I wouldn‘t call Love Live a „deep“ or „philosophical“ anime, but it has it‘s moment, even the original. There are some great quotes like Nozomi‘s „The ocean is great. When I look at it, my worries that seemed so big become small“, or „Do you know what’s the most important thing about climbing mountains is? It’s not about having the courage to challenge it, It’s about having the courage to back down.“ Honoka has some great quotes about friendship and the importance of never giving up. I also like Kotori‘s quote when she talks about how the girls of Muse maybe get lost sometimes along the way, but that it doesn‘t matter because a wonderful future will await them if they come together and continue to work together. But the most important work comes from the song lyrics. Snow Halation is pretty deep and it can have multiple interpretations. Then there‘s Start Dash and Bokutachi wa Hitotsu no Hikari, and the line about birds growing up that ties those two perfectly together. There are much more songs with great lyrics of course, but these are the most obvious ones. My favorite Love Live anime is still the original, but yes, Aqours‘ story is great too. I like how it shows that you can sometimes fail even if you try your best. It also makes perfect sense. Muse‘s school was located in Tokyo, so for them it was easier to save their school, while Aqours school was in a small fishing village. It makes perfect sense that not a lot of people, especially kids, would be able to move to go to school there. It‘s unfortunately happening all over Japan right now, schools in rural places are closing because almost all families live in big cities now. The school which Uranohoshi is based on also closed in 2021. The good thing is that Numazu has at least gained new residents and tourists due to Sunshine. I was there 2 times and I enjoyed it, it‘s a really nice town. People were also really nice. It‘s a good distraction from crowded and hectic Tokyo lol.
I absolutely adore Love Live and it's because it's cute and girly and sparkly and it has nice songs, it's not for any special reasons, it's just because it's cute, also I love shojou anime and this was the closest thing I could find that didn't feel boring
Man, I honestly and genuinely forgot about about love live. Even though I actively listen to their discography, I think what happened was uh... I got to the 7th episode of the first season and then it just fazed out of my mind. Never really got back to it since, maybe it's just my problem but I guess that's my perspective on the idol genre as a whole. Such a specific demographic they aim for. It's... like, very overwhelming if not daunting. But I envy the people who can make something out of it, must be nice to inspired by something to actually do things. Have yet to find something that does affects me in that sort of way, Aha..
Yeah, the idol genre is a really specific niche so I don't blame anyone who can't get into it. Hope you can find some show that deeply inspires you too!
All of my friends binged Love Live felt obssesed and then said "oof wtf did I just watch" "why did I hype up from little girls like that a moment ago?" They hear stuff that makes them ashamed of feeling what they're feeling before they understand it. I assure you, the person who's making you feel that shame doesn't know you and doesn't understand where does that feeling come from either. They probably don't even know their own self If shame is what's running your life, run from it.
wish that more people watch love live instead of clowing on it since it's an idol anime, anime content creators just to clown on idol anime in the west and made pretty much a norm, love live is a lot more than an idol anime since they release songs, monthly magazine, live streams where the seiyuus reveal things, live concerts
Woah this is an amazing video and a quite interesting one.. Recently i just watched zombieland saga and its actually my first idol anime (tbh idk if its really an idol anime) so watching this video makes me want to try to watch love live. Is it any good? Like i mean the characters drama, song, animation, etc.
Thanks man! I haven't seen zombieland saga but I've heard very good things about it and it's been on my to watch list for a long time now. I should probably get to it at some point. I'd say love live is a decently straight forward story, think of something like demon slayer or jujutsu kaisen where you shouldn't expect anything out of the ordinary or insane plot twists but it's a fun watch. Animation is slightly rough at the start and gets really good later. Songs depend on your taste but love live has so much variety that I think you're bound to find something you like (especially outside of the anime). I think character drama is pretty good, but again I wouldn't call it the deepest or best I've seen, still really enjoyable though. Hope you like it if you start love live man! I'm not sure if you should expect the same vibes as zombieland saga though lol
Hey i have a podcast where im going to be interviewing a LoveLive fan about their experiences. How they got into it, their favorite series or movie, favorite album, song, group member etc. I was hoping you fans could help me with some more. Sorry if this isn't cool to ask here
@@brodyot94 I see! If you don't mind, could you send me the link, I'm quite interested in what it's like! And if there's any anime/topic that I've covered on my channel that you'd be interested in asking me, I'd be down to come on!
Let me stop you right there it is physically impossible to watch the entire love live season 1 and 2 you need at least a few weeks to be able to finish all of that Unless you skip some PARTS!!!!.......
I like love like but I don’t like the anime or any of the characters. I really like the merch and watching a lot of the shows but I couldn’t get into the anime or games. I have too much merch.
Uhhhhhhhhh. So I don't really talk about the anime but moreso my experience and feelings with it. I think I did show a few pretty important clips from the later seasons though so idk if you would consider that spoilers
I absolutely adore Love Live! I like idol anime in general, but Love Live really hits hard for me. It actually gave me one of my dreams for the future; to be an idol too.

That epiosde was super inspiring. Reaaly shows here passion and that you really just have to go for what you want
Let me guess, as in Shu Uchida or Shu-chan of Nijigasaki High School Idol Club?
Why not watch the other groups too? Love Live's writers and the people who handle it really do an amazing job and the brand's quality is good in every group but in different ways
I only watch the anime but Superstar has been on point this season
Incredibly deep and true for many of us. I’m glad we are all able to find inspiration to push us forward.

It makes perfect sense that not a lot of people, especially kids, would be able to move to go to school there. It‘s unfortunately happening all over Japan right now, schools in rural places are closing because almost all families live in big cities now. The school which Uranohoshi is based on also closed in 2021.
The good thing is that Numazu has at least gained new residents and tourists due to Sunshine. I was there 2 times and I enjoyed it, it‘s a really nice town. People were also really nice. It‘s a good distraction from crowded and hectic Tokyo lol.
I absolutely adore Love Live and it's because it's cute and girly and sparkly and it has nice songs, it's not for any special reasons, it's just because it's cute, also I love shojou anime and this was the closest thing I could find that didn't feel boring

Man, I honestly and genuinely forgot about about love live. Even though I actively listen to their discography, I think what happened was uh... I got to the 7th episode of the first season and then it just fazed out of my mind. Never really got back to it since, maybe it's just my problem but I guess that's my perspective on the idol genre as a whole. Such a specific demographic they aim for. It's... like, very overwhelming if not daunting. But I envy the people who can make something out of it, must be nice to inspired by something to actually do things. Have yet to find something that does affects me in that sort of way, Aha..
Yeah, the idol genre is a really specific niche so I don't blame anyone who can't get into it. Hope you can find some show that deeply inspires you too!
All of my friends binged Love Live felt obssesed and then said "oof wtf did I just watch" "why did I hype up from little girls like that a moment ago?"
They hear stuff that makes them ashamed of feeling what they're feeling before they understand it. I assure you, the person who's making you feel that shame doesn't know you and doesn't understand where does that feeling come from either. They probably don't even know their own self
If shame is what's running your life, run from it.
The holoska music from sonic unleashed at the begining of the video
wish that more people watch love live instead of clowing on it since it's an idol anime, anime content creators just to clown on idol anime in the west and made pretty much a norm, love live is a lot more than an idol anime since they release songs, monthly magazine, live streams where the seiyuus reveal things, live concerts
Woah this is an amazing video and a quite interesting one.. Recently i just watched zombieland saga and its actually my first idol anime (tbh idk if its really an idol anime) so watching this video makes me want to try to watch love live. Is it any good? Like i mean the characters drama, song, animation, etc.
Thanks man! I haven't seen zombieland saga but I've heard very good things about it and it's been on my to watch list for a long time now. I should probably get to it at some point.
I'd say love live is a decently straight forward story, think of something like demon slayer or jujutsu kaisen where you shouldn't expect anything out of the ordinary or insane plot twists but it's a fun watch. Animation is slightly rough at the start and gets really good later. Songs depend on your taste but love live has so much variety that I think you're bound to find something you like (especially outside of the anime). I think character drama is pretty good, but again I wouldn't call it the deepest or best I've seen, still really enjoyable though.
Hope you like it if you start love live man! I'm not sure if you should expect the same vibes as zombieland saga though lol
I like love live but I haven’t seen the anime I mostly like the radio shows, variety shows and performances/music.
Hey i have a podcast where im going to be interviewing a LoveLive fan about their experiences. How they got into it, their favorite series or movie, favorite album, song, group member etc.
I was hoping you fans could help me with some more.
Sorry if this isn't cool to ask here
Sorry for the late reply! I'd be down to help if you're still looking for people to interview!
@redjoker our love live episode is out now! But if theres something else you're a ffan of, I'd love to have you!
@@brodyot94 I see! If you don't mind, could you send me the link, I'm quite interested in what it's like!
And if there's any anime/topic that I've covered on my channel that you'd be interested in asking me, I'd be down to come on!
Let me stop you right there it is physically impossible to watch the entire love live season 1 and 2 you need at least a few weeks to be able to finish all of that
Unless you skip some PARTS!!!!.......
I like love like but I don’t like the anime or any of the characters. I really like the merch and watching a lot of the shows but I couldn’t get into the anime or games. I have too much merch.
ok question. I only watched one season. Can i watch the video and not get spoiled?
Uhhhhhhhhh. So I don't really talk about the anime but moreso my experience and feelings with it. I think I did show a few pretty important clips from the later seasons though so idk if you would consider that spoilers
