Not only that, my friend.

This explains Maki's reality-shifting powers in the OVA.

Smug Alpaca be Smug.

Benigmatica · 2014-07-02, 10:59

Nah, I think that white alpaca is pimpin'!

blakstealth · 2014-07-02, 11:16

I always thought that white alpaca was a female :x

Me too. I didn't expect the brown one to be female or be pregnant at the end of the season.

Smug Alpaca has the right to be smug.

I want to pretend that everything in episode 13 after Hanayo got the email didn't happen. Not only was it a very inappropriate follow-up to the rest of the episode, it's also infuriating how the details of the message were not revealed at all. Can we at least have an idea of what's going to happen?

I am not really against the concept of a "new beginning", the μ's girls getting together for one last adventure in a sequel, or anything like that (as long as the graduated trio don't go back to school or something dumb). It's just that this is the *last episode*, and for this episode to end with almost no sense of closure after all the signs have pointed to us getting closure frankly ticks me off. This is a freaking cliffhanger ending that came out of nowhere. I am not really surprised that something like this has happened, considering the massive sales this anime has brought in, but I'm just disappointed in how it was done.

The new musical sequence was pretty darn fun and exciting. It just doesn't fit into the episode narrative-wise. I have the feeling that Sunrise/Lantis finished planning and drafting Happy Maker before the episode's script was finalized, which could explain how it doesn't seem to follow anything in the episode.

I still like this episode despite the ending, which goes to show just how good the rest of the episode is. I think it was a good idea to make episode 13 positive-minded and low on the waterworks. The tears were already shed in episode 11 and 12; episode 13 is the point where the μ's girls have mostly gotten over their sadness and they are ready to say their farewells with smiles.

I really liked the shout-out to the 1st episode of S1 in Honoka's self-introduction with Susume Tomorrow. I definitely did not expect Aishiteru Banzai to be used as a graduation song, but it fits really nicely. Nico's mom is awesome, and it's nice to see another side of Nico. And club president is the perfect role for Hanayo.

Also. More Maki.

Uhm...Eri-chan, please...it's not what it looks like!!!

Kakurin · 2014-07-03, 15:07

Eri-chan's not worried at all. She's in good care with me.

Nico's other side with her mother was hilarious. Didn't expect her to be a clingy mommy-girl. But on the other hand, it kind of fits. She's always taking care of her younger siblings so of course she needs some space and opportunity to be a child herself.

My Empress Maki is as sexy as always!

Honestly it felt like the last song of the concert, then saying goodbye. Then the crowds start chanting Encore, and tada... movie! May not make sense but seeing enough of how these anime concert goes... it makes sense in context.

A Sunday without Love Live is just...

Triple_R · 2014-07-06, 18:41

^ Yeah, it's not hard to miss Love Live! right now. It now feels a bit strange, and a bit empty, to have a Sunday without a new LL episode.

blakstealth · 2014-07-07, 00:21

Monday mornings are shit again without mah love live

Pen3 · 2014-07-07, 04:30

And Tuesday is also shit without Love Live! BTY did anyone else notice a flood of Eri x Umi pictures on the interweb lately?

Well, at least we still have our NozoEri radio on Saturdays. :P And 3rd insert album comes out this week.

They should have made it to 26 episodes!
