I'm not very good at expressing myself through words but I'll try my best!

Love Live stuff has been near the side of the internet I'm on for years now... so I've always felt great familiarity around them all! A year back or so I lost some friends and I was honestly depressed... I just felt very lonely and lost. I decided to watch the Love Live anime soon after and... I don't know why but Honoka and the others just running around and being silly always made me grin. Muse faced many failures throughout the show and I know I would've just given up, but they didn't do that. They got right back up and tried again, it was very inspirational. Seeing them all share such a strong bond and unbreakable determination.. It gives me tears of joy.

I'm a lot more boyish than I'd like to be, and I don't think I can manage looking cute in a dress or frilly clothing, I relate a lot to my beloved Rin. Seeing Season 2's episode "A New Me" where Rin is told to be the leader and to wear such a frilly, femenine outfit, revealing that she's actually very self-consious, I love that episode so much. I watched her struggle throughout the episode, fighting herself, and I teared up seeing her so upset.. Only to see Muse at the last moment giving Rin the dress and making her wear it... The pure joy Rin showed was so heartwarming and inspirational, even I've tried dresssing a little more feminine and 'Hey! I'm getting there bit by bit!' Rin is a great inspiration to me.

Whenever I need a mood booster, my go to is Muse. I find myself listening to Muses songs like "No Brand Girl" and "Start Dash" and many more, they fill me with such inspiration and determination. They sound like they are all trying so hard, "FIGHTO!" As Honoka would say.

I would laugh, I would cry, I went through a lot and they stayed with me every step of the way, and I am happy they all are a part of my life. I hoped you enjoyed listening to my story.
