Aqours WAVE

Aqours WAVE is the sixth episode of ''Love Live! Sunshine!!'s'' second season. It aired on November 11, 2017.

Summary
The Third Years are discussing about the applicant numbers: 57 out of 100, but Uranohoshi has not even a month to their number requirements, and this puts stress on the trio. Later, the fact that the qualification will be deemed by poll on the internet arrives, and puts even more stress on Aqours.

Later that day, Kanan, still holding onto the dance formation book used 2 years ago and caused problems, argues with Dia and Mari about using its content for the next qualifier. Kanan then throws it away into the sea, worrying about its consequence in case of failure, but Mari saved it. Dia then presents it as the "Key to Victory 2 years ago" to Chika the next day so that she would do it, to Kanan's worry.

Despite the guidebook in the hand, Chika keeps on failing to do what's written there. This caused Kanan to worry even more, and made an agreement with Chika that, if Chika couldn't do it by the next day, she would give up. That night, Chika is trying hard, but still unsucessful. However, by the time, she managed to do it. The group then prerforms MIRACLE WAVE, with the back handspring written in the book.
