Jul 12, 2016 deathdjentcore Recommended *THIS IS MY FIRST REVIEW, SO PLEASE BE NICE! :D* (TL;DR version at the bottom) I stopped watching anime a long time ago (when death note came out and everyone was fonboying about it everywhere, it made me sick) and I though I wouldn't ever watch anime again. A friend of mine told me a couple of months ago "you don't have the amount of kawaii in your life you really need, kinda like Love live" so I decided to watch it. I went into it knowing perfectly well that this was an idol anime, mainly aimed to teen audiences and fully aware of what kind of music ... Read more Open Gift Report
May 22, 2015 ratchet573 Mixed Feelings Love Live is everything you think it is from the outset. It’s a high school drama centered on a group of adorable girls becoming idols. It’s nothing new, it doesn’t strive to change the game; yet it still manages to beat the competition as far as I’m concerned. And I’m not familiar with all the competition because I’m not a huge fan of this slice of life/music genre that seems to have cropped up after the success of that one episode of Haruhi Suzumiya and the massive success of K-On. All I know of is the first season of K-On, which is massively hyped up. ... Read more Open Gift Report
Nov 26, 2013 Reizei_kun Recommended My first idol based anime was Idolmaster. To be honest I found it very boring and I didn't seem to enjoy the anime at all except for the singing. I quite enjoy their songs. Then I stumble upon another idol based anime, to be percise a school idol based anime. I thought that this anime is the same like idolmaster and I gave up too early on this anime. After being persuaded by my friend I start watching this anime and what do you guys know! This anime is flipping fantastic! The plot, The character everything was perfect, the song, the soundtrack, the character ... Read more Open Gift Report
Feb 17, 2015 BasT94 Recommended Just as much as we need a gateway anime to hook us up into this little world of colorful fights and beautiful blood rain, there comes a time when we have to watch something to remind us why we still like these things. And even if a series like Love Live, whose selling point isn't gore or a super addictive plot, isn't what we expected to end up watching when we started (I think my teenage me would frown If I told him I saw an anime about a bunch of cute girls singing in a stage), I think it has a lot of qualities ...

Oct 9, 2015 tsuki_shiro Recommended "Love Live School Idol Project huh?", that's was I'm asking myself and I think maybe I will give a shot since the movie will be aired on GSC so why not. After finished watching first season, I question myself "why i did'nt watch this anime earlier?". This, my friend is one of the most amazing idol anime,of course there are many more idol anime such as AKB0048, Wake up Girls, Idolmaster and many more. But, LL gives me something that makes me want to jump and clapping after they finished their songs. Love Live School Ido Project start with main character,Honoka who adore idol since it ...

Dec 30, 2019 Hiirokaze Recommended Love Live! is fun and lighthearted, but most of the appeal comes from getting invested in the community (seiyuus, the mobile: “game school idol festival”, and the fandom in general). The school idol tournament “Love Live” and the plot of the school shutting down are not interesting by themselves, and so the show focuses on the characters. However, there are too many characters to develop so none of them end up getting developed anyway. Of the nine main cast members, Rin and Hanayo are forgettable, Maki, Kotori, Nico and Nozomi are one-dimensional, Umi and Eli are decent and the main character, Honoka, is basically just a ...

Jan 1, 2015 Richard-kun Mixed Feelings I finished watching this anime with a friend on new year's eve, and while she liked it, I was less impressed. Before Christmas I had just finished watching Sword Art Online II and Akame Ga Kill, so after Christmas I was still at a high from those two amazing anime. So maybe it's because I'm comparing it too heavily to other anime, but 'Love Live! School Idol Project' did not impress me very much. Story - The story was clear and concise. Save the school from closing down by starting a school idol group as a publicity stunt. While it was easy to follow, it ... Read more Open Gift Report
Mar 1, 2014 TheAnimeXpert Mixed Feelings A review about a GREAT anime. Recommend reading the whole review. When I first heard about Love Live! School Idol Project, the name got me going. Is it a romance anime or a idol anime (maybe even both). Turns out it's just a idol anime. Story: 3 Read more Open Gift Report
Mar 4, 2013 schoolrage Recommended Preliminary (9/13 eps) The storyboard of this anime is good! i love how the students gather support to save their schools from shutting down in an extraordinary way of becoming an idol, the flow is not rush and easy to understand, some part is predictable but somehow they manage to maintain the impact. though i would say the song and PV's they gave is quite amateur and not as exciting as the song from anime like K'ON, but i believe they can improve. If the artist involve willing to hear the public comment, getting a high rating and a full support is easy as a smirk! Overall,, recommended! ^_^ Read more Open Gift Report
Aug 19, 2015 ktulu007 Recommended Love Live School Idol Project is a multimedia project. There were a lot of different companies behind this. ASCII Media Works, Lantis, Dengeki G's Magazine and Sunrise. The overall project included games, music, manga, light novels an anime series and an anime film. Today we'll be looking at series one of the anime brought to us by Sunrise in 2013. Story: Our heroines happily attend Otonokizaka Academy when they get some bad news. Due to a lack of interest in the school, it's slated to close with their current first years being the last class. The student council President and Vice President, Eri and Nozomi, ...

Feb 9, 2017 Yuni Mixed Feelings Disclaimers: Spoilers, this review covers the Love Live! School Idol Project anime series, which means season 1, 2, and the movie, and this review will be a bit more personal than your typical review. This review is also long as fuck, and there will be a spoiler free TL;DR at the end. Love Live sucks major balls. Upon viewing my profile, one would probably witness a few Love Live memes here and there, a shit ton of Love Live characters in my favorites list, and possibly a Love Live profile picture, although I constantly change it so it depends. Seems like a typical Love Live fag ... Read more Open Gift Report
Feb 8, 2018 renyrells Not Recommended Lets just say that this show did not live up to the hype or standards that I had been lead to believe. I knew about the story coming in. A school is shutting down in a couple years due to the lack of enrollment. A group of girls realize that the most popular school also happens to have the most popular school idol group. So their like, "shoot we can do that. and then the school will be saved." And then they do that. End of story. the rest of the show is them gathering new members and fighting against the administration who wont let them ... Read more Open Gift Report
Aug 28, 2020 superp2222 Recommended When I entered the anime community, I never thought that one day, I'd come to enjoy Idol Anime - something I had long associated with the more... dedicated part of the fandom. Yet when a friend recommended this anime to me, my socks were blown so far away I reconsidered the entire Idol anime category. Love Live brings a fun story, mixed with coming-of-age plot development and an overall fantastic atmosphere and world Story Read more Open Gift Report
Dec 10, 2015 Achachan Recommended Now, I've never written a review here on MAL before, and I feel as if I should start with a series that I hold close to my heart: Love Live. To give some background apart from what's listed above, Love Live is adapted from a project by Dengeki G's magazine in which they created a 2D idol franchise, often asking for fan input on group names and the like. Before the anime was released, there were many CG music videos for the main group (μ's, pronounced Muse). So, yes, there is liberal usage of CG in this show. For the most part, episodes are animated traditionally, but ... Read more Open Gift Report

Mar 31, 2013 AnimeloverBebe Recommended This anime is exactly what you think it is, a bunch of really cute girls singing and dancing. That is what makes this fun, the music. The animation switches between its normal animation to CG during the performances and it goes great with it. The characters are really cute girls that fit almost every aspect of anime girls.The main character, Honoka, is a hyper happy-go-lucky girl who seems like a really hard worker and thats why you love her. What got me to like this anime was the music, its cute and catchy, and i love music like that. If you watch don't expect ... Read more Open Gift Report
May 6, 2015 Lord_Odous Recommended “If each of us can put our hearts into the things we love, a new place will be our goal. If we trust in the things each of us loves, we can embrace the excitation and move forward.” – Love Live S1 OP When we were young, we had dreams, we had friends, and we had the energy. There’s virtually nothing that could hold us back. We were naive, we were clumsy, and we made mistakes. But hey, it’s all part of growing up, no? After all, dreams don’t come without bumps and challenges on the road. Enter Love Live School Idol Project, boy, what a ... Read more Open Gift Report
Dec 24, 2014 Nailbeast Recommended Before I started watching Love Live! School Idol Project, I was a bit hesitant about going into it. I'm not entirely sure whether it was the fact that I was a huge K-On! fan and didn't want to accept other similar animes or the fear I have for too many main characters at once because I dislike overly complex/confusing stories. Story - ... Read more Open Gift Report
Feb 18, 2015 DueTomorrow Recommended If I hadn't seen K-ON! first, I would've likely rated this higher. However, as the first season progressed, while I had not initially thought of K-ON!, the parallels became progressively narrow. Now, if you haven't seen K-ON!, you're in for a treat as this series is fun to watch. Never mind that it has to do with idols (which isn't my cup of tea), the series overall has one main character but never derails from it's central goal: the group of 9 girls has their heart set on competing (and winning) the Love Live event to boost the popularity of the school so it ...
