WARNING:
STRONG FEELINGS AND OPINIONS TO FOLLOW! If you don't like it when your opinions don't match others', best to avert your eyes!
The Best
1. Hoshizora Rin - Golden Goddess with the voice of an angel. Super happy and full of energy, but doesn't steamroll over other people like Honoka. I get why some people might not like the cat thing, but it doesn't bug me. Sexy Rin > Cute Rin.
2. Sakurauchi Riko - The girl I would marry were they to come to life. Stable, responsible, but not obnoxiously so. (See below.) Pretty in pink.
The Irreproachable
3. Kunikida Hanamaru - She makes me laugh. Looks adorable munching on bread.
4. Minami Kotori - Despite baby-talking, she has a more grown-up disposition. Can't ever get mad at her.
5. Koizumi Hanayo - I like her like this, too!
6. Kurosawa Ruby - Also baby-talks. Is cute as a button, though, so she can get away with it. Inspires everyone to do their best.
The Sunny Side Up
7. Takami Chika - Actually useful as a leader. Fails to stand out only because she maintains so many lead-character tropes.
8. Kousaka Honoka - The only one audacious enough to start a school idol group. Nice enough, but pretty useless in every department.
9. Matsuura Kanan - The most attractive idol (read: looks great in swimwear). Loses points for patronizing her friends.
The Sunny Side Down
10. Watanabe You - Fixated on boats and uniforms, two things that don't get my attention.
11. Kurosawa Dia - Loves her sister. Looks great in red. Likes to be a know-it-all, though.
12. Yazawa Nico - Why does she have so many songs?
The Sticks in the Mud
13. Sonoda Umi - Doesn't like other people to have fun.
14. Nishikino Maki - Only cute when talking about Santa. Too much tsun, not enough dere.
15. Ayase Eli - Thinks stopping people from trying because they aren't good enough (in her estimation) is valid.
The Last Three
16. Tsushima Yoshiko - Has great songs. Love the shark sleeping bag. Can't stand the chuni stuff.
17. Ohara Mari - Nope.
18. Toujou Nozomi - As Honoka would say, "Oh! Sexual Harrasment!"
Sub-Units
1. Guilty Kiss - I like all their music.
2. lily white - Any reason to hear Rin sing.
3. CYaRon! - The better of the the two Smile sub-units. What kind of name is that, though?
4. Printemps - You know Kotori chose that name. Not bad, but a few songs really grate on me.
5. BiBi - A few Nico good songs, but too Nico much Nico in a lot of them.
6. AZALEA - I have no problem with this group, but for the most part, I am uninterested in their songs.
About Me
Late to the Love Live party. Wanted to die inside when the first series ended, but then found the game, and then the second series. Crisis averted.
Don't like ships, but not going to look down on you if you do. Yousoro!
